Since the game is about to launch in Japan, figure it's an appropriate time to make a thread. Pikmin 2 was full of cameos, seems reasonable to believe there should be some in Pikmin 3. Also who knows if Kazumi Totaka worked on the game? he worked on Pikmin 2, so there is probably a fair chance he could have worked on this.

Heard it from Neogaf, in the intro of Pikmin 3, when their spaceship crashes the "dog laugh" sound effect from Duck Hunt plays. At 1:38 in this video (just before the narrator says "something goes horribly wrong") Here's DH to compare (at 1:07 a duck flys away and the dog laughs) www.youtube.com/watch?v=-1NyIsZXeqU

www.youtube.com/watch?v=XTL42dT0vVMnot going to watch this since I don't want spoilers, but for those that don't care, here are the credits to see if Totaka worked on the game.

No Kazumi Totaka, and the staff credit sequence doesn't show anything story-related.

On the Duck Hunt thing, the sound effect certainly starts the same, but then seems to be overlaid with other effects to make it last longer. It also has nothing to do with Duck Hunt. It's almost as if Nintendo went to their bank of 8-bit sound effects for that computer sequence. OR they could have just made a similar electronic noise and it's just a coincidence.
Either are viable. Not sure it's a cameo.
