Did anyone else buy Pikmin 3? I bought it about a week ago and just "finished" it. Very cool game, I like how alive the world feels with all the creatures, weather patterns, etc. One thing I miss however was finding cool objects like a Famicom or Gameboy like in past Pikmin games, it's pretty much all fruit in Pikmin 3 although they all have the usual charming alien descriptions you've come to expect. An example being the name "Insect Condo" to describe an apple.
Apparently there's this big mystery going around the internet as to what exactly these secret files you find throughout the stages do, last I heard nobody had found them all but I have 6 so far and they seem to spell out a password of some sort. What exactly it's for I have no idea. Finishing the game with 100% fruit seemed to suggest there's more to the story, has anyone here had a jab at finding them?
