Emulator

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Load game
2. Start a new game
3. Press A repeatedly so you hear the dialog acceptance noise and wait
   till` you can play.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
When starting a new game, immediately after crashing onto the planet (right
after the short cinematic) the screen will go black during the first
portion of the tutorial section. When you repeatedly press A through the
dialog the screen will come back and you will see pikmin attacking the bug
at which point you can call them. Prior to that, it stays black and I
"expect" it shouldn't.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
SVN R 4460 (32bit) on Windows XP Pro SP3
