You may have heard this catchy (or annoying) Japanese tune on the SSBB stage Distant Planet, but have you wondered where this song came from? If you would take a look at the Sound Test or My Music options, it would list the song’s name as Tane no Uta. The song’s title is literally translated into “The Seed Song”.
This music was used specifically for Pikmin 2 for the Nintendo Gamecube. And yes, it also has a matching commercial which is simply adorable:
You have heard the song, and you have seen the commercial, but do you know what the lyrics mean? Its pretty easy to guess judging from the commercial, so here is the english translation:
Red Pikmin are strong against fire
Blue pikmin will not drown
Yellow pikmin jumps very high
Purple pikmin are the strong one
White pikmin has poison
All you need is many to exist!
Its basically a description of each individual pikmin’s strengths.
ADDITIONAL PIKMIN FACTS:
- In SSBB when Olimar falls into the water in certain stages, all of his pikmin will drown except the blue ones
- In SSBB, red pikmin are immune to fire-type attacks.
- In SSBB, purple pikmin has the strongest knockback out of all the different types
- In SSBB, throwing a white pikmin to an enemy will do additional damage due to poison
