Who has the Zelda bonus disc?

Well, seeing as you didn't play much of Pikmin lends a little less credibility to your arguement. It really was hard to not finish the game given the time limit because you didn't need to collect all 30 parts to beat the game. You probably didn't know that because you don't find that out until later in the game. Personally, I liked the tension that the time limit added to Pikmin. Whenever I entered a new level I would check out the map to see where the parts were and then pick out 2 or 3 I wanted to check out. All you had to do was collect 1 part a day and you would have all 30 parts, which wasn't even necessary to beat the game, and collecting 1 part a day is pretty easy to do even if you want to explore. You can spend half the day exploring and growing Pikmin, and the other half collecting a part.
