Trivia[]
This is the second Pingu video game released in the Pingu media.
This is the only Pingu video game to introduce an exclusive character known as Popoff.
This is also the only appearance he's ever made. Not once did he ever appear in the Pingu TV show or any other Pingu media for that matter.
Because the game was only released in Japan, Popoff never saw an overseas appearance.
Pygos Group specialists helped with development on the game.
This is the first time that the music score is composed by a Japanese female video-game composer, Manami Matsumae, who also composed the music for the Mega Man games.
