Those sneaky guys at Datel find hidden treasure in Pikmin 2.....
Play Pikmin 2 now - in English!
Datel's Action Replay for GameCube unlocks a surprising language option...
May 10th, 2004 - It's out now in Japan, not arriving until August in the States and hasn't even got a firm release date in Europe. But with Action Replay for GameCube, you can play the Japanese version of Nintendo's fantastic Pikmin 2 on a UK console - and watch the cut scenes in English!
As you know, Action Replay's FreeLoader technology allows you to play ANY region of games on ANY GameCube, allowing UK gamers to play imports. Pikmin 2 is no exception - with Action Replay, the Japanese version plays just fine on a European machine. But while researching codes and enhancements for the game, Datel's dynamic code-cracking crew discovered something no one expected. The Japanese game contains English-language versions of all the cut scenes, even though English-language play isn't offered as an option. Rumour has it this was included so Nintendo could show the game in English at E3...
With these exclusive Action Replay codes, you can open up this hidden option and follow the storyline in English. Now there's no need to wait until August for the American version (and no European release date has been confirmed). Just grab an Action Replay and play it now, understanding every word!
Pikmin 2 Action Replay codes, including those needed to unlock the English-language cut scenes, can be found at www.codejunkies.com.
