Pikmin 4 Is The Best Pikmin | All About Live, Laugh, & Dandori

[@LucianoThePig]

A retcon is the only way they can explain Olimar still having a career piloting a ship despite numerous crashes

[@goldencash4]

Considering hocotate freight is always in debt and only has 2 employees, one being Louie, the president can't afford to fire Olimar

[@OriginalGameteer]

It's mentioned somewhere (I think) that Olimar is the company's best employee He can't really be fired simply due to the fact that they'd be losing their only competent employee

[@tripplec6798]

during a conversation between Olimar and the rescue squad Colin mentions how Olimar is well known for his adventures which makes Olimar sad as he mentions his adventures are just him crashing and having to find the parts of his ship to get back home or going to pay off company debt. While not saying how many makes it sound like it's and in between somewhere

[@brandoncain]

Technically, those crashes might have been the Plasim Wraith's fault.

[@NotAGoodUsername360]

The sheer number of highly skilled pilots that crashed in 4 suggests that it's not his fault, there is clearly an entity on the planet that causes any sufficiently large ship to crash land.

[@DanGamingFan2406]

The best part about this game, is how well it's doing. It's selling better than any other _Pikmin title,_ people are playing and streaming the other games, they're finally getting big, mainstream attention, and I couldn't be happier.

[@watershipup7101]

Agreed

[@genjis5155]

I've never felt more validated as a Pikmin fan.

[@CinnaBox]

I’m sort of a new fan, I started with hey Pikmin (sorry) and put it down after a while, but then I played 3 Deluxe and even though I haven’t finished it yet, I really like it, the exact same thing applies to 4, I have not finished it yet but it’s absolutely amazing I couldn’t be happier to see the series get more and more attention, because the 10 year wait made it seem like it was just one of those franchises that is memorialized as a character slot in smash bros (looking at you, Earthbound), and Nintendo should do more experimenting with stuff, I love Rhythm Heaven and I want that series to get attention, I think it would be nice for them to port Fever (the Wii one) to the switch, if not the switch then hopefully their next console, and then they see how well it sells and see if the series is needed for a new game that went off-topic, but I am so happy that Pikmin is finally getting the attention it’s always deserved, it may have been because the rest of the series were all on poor selling consoles, and most people only knew it from Smash Bros, but now people see it as a genuine game I’m going to be pissed if it isn’t nominated for GOTY

The Koppaite castaways are actually hinted to be related to the Pikmin 3 captains in a family sense. Don has many brothers and sisters and had a former partner named Ducky, referencing Charlie's rubber duck. Yorke is a grandson of Dr. Drake, who is also Alph's grandfather. And it is mentioned that Nelle has a biologist in her family, likely being Brittany.

[@misterzygarde6431]

Given that Louie is a criminal, I’m imagining if he doesn’t appear in a future game that he’ll be written out by there being a mention of him in jail. Hell maybe they could make a game of a bunch of criminals arrested for petty crimes having to survive after Louie hijacks the ship taking them to jail and working to rebuild the ship. Also I had this idea where any Pikmin can go into water, it’s just that blues are completely overpowered in the water.

[@ThefifthBishopofGord]

TLDR: Basically I want play to play a combination of Subnautica and Pikmin. I personally want to play a Pikmin game as Louie in a survival game. Like I want to able to play a Pikmin game where the captain climbs plants and can parkour from plant to plant in order to avoid enemies which are too strong and fast for you to sprint past or attack with your current amount of pikmin. I want a tactical system where you have to choose to either eat or to give the corpse to pikmin to recover loses from the battle. It just seems neat and Louie has been shown to be a very capable person when it comes to survival.

[@Frugthereal]

I had an idea for a pimmin game where Louie runs away from jail, steals a ship and goes to the pikmin's planet, but the ship sends an SOS signal automatically. So Louie has to rebuild his ship before the cops come to get him.

[@luiginaryworker553]

[@skylerfisher4347]

If it’s any indication of how quality and fun this game is, I played this game TWICE. At the same time. One file just for me to play, and the other for when my sister visits on Sundays to do laundry and hang out. Despite playing two separate files simultaneously I still didn’t get burned out on the game and was just hyped to play. Truly these are great times for Pikmin.

[@sackfu7952]

Someone, i think Arlo, said that Oatchi is sort of like part Pikmin, part captain, part all-terrain vehicle, and i think that's actually the best way to describe him, sort of a mix between both while also being his own thing and it just kind of works.

Olimar could also just be embarassed at himself crashing on this planet so many times that he just reset his notes to pretend this is his first time.

A few of the data entries point to this being a separate timeline from 1-3. One of Olimar’s mentions he dreamt of his company going into debt because of a new employee and he woke up laughing. And Louie’s last one makes his dark secret from 2 even worse. But man, I loved this game. I played through the main story twice, got platinum rank on all dandori challenges and battles, and did something completely insane: completed Olimar’s story in only four days.

I picked up 3 deluxe back in October and just fell in love with it. Its gotten to the point where I've sank over 100 hours into the game. I've done over 20 100 percent playthroughs in that time and in 50 hours I've only done 2 100 percent playthroughs of 4 and in those playthroughs I have concluded that this game really makes you feel like a PURPLE PIKMIN. I think that shows just how much more content their is in 4 compared to the old ones and I could not be happier for that. Or maybe I just suck at time management in 4. Dandori issue

[@Equ3strianGam3r]

I just met AntDude earlier today at the Indianapolis PopCon. I asked him if he was going to do a Pikmin 4 video and he said it was uploading soon. I didn't know it would be the same day. Thank you so much AntDude. I love the Pikmin games and had to get 4 when it came out. My only problem with the game is I'm pretty bad at the Dandori Battles. I've managed to get Gold in a few of them but I'm just not fast enough. I'm okay at the Dandori Challenges where you just have to collect everything and have gotten Platinum in pretty much all of them. I guess it's just the added stress of going up against another character that is bothering me. As for the Sage Leaf Trials, good god am I a mess. I managed to complete them but pretty much all Bronze with, I think 2 Silver. I really need to practice. I have managed to do a deathless run on the first 2 Pikmin games thanks to the Switch releases so I can hopefully get better at the newest game too. Sorry I started rambling there. It's just really cool that I met AntDude today.

Easily my new favorite Pikmin title. I will say one thing, I absolutely agree with the design decision that enemies are no longer there once you defeat them. I found that to help me out so much with clearing the map haha. Though I think it would be cool if once you get 100%, when you enter the map they ask if you would like to repopulate it just for the grind for players who want that. But for me, I love emptying out the place just so I can focus on everything else.

I haven't played Pikmin 2 in a long time, but one of the main things I remember is not liking the caves. This wasn't an issue with 4.

Regarding the 3 Koppaite Castaways. Yorke is implied to Alph’s Eldest Brother seeing as he belongs of group of 14/15 siblings and mentioning Drake. As for whether 4 retcons the events of the trilogy it seems that way. The Planet Koppai is mentioned to be on the verge of a food crisis which would place Pikmin 4 before the events of 3 regardless of retcons and Olimar makes reference to the events of Pikmin 2, Hocotate Freight being in debt, as a dream and not history.

Maybe. But I seem to recalling reading an entry of his in Pikmin 2 or something where he states something along the lines of that the only reason he doesn’t try eating Pikmin is because he doesn’t want to upset them due to just how ferocious they can be toward their enemies.

If you didn't know everybody that is a part of the Rescue Corps is named after dog breeds. The ship The SS Beagle is named after a Beagle. Shepherd is named after a German Shepherd. Colin is named after a Border Collies. Russ is a Jack Russiel Terrier. Dingo is just a Dingo (or maybe Dalmatian but I doubt that). Bernard is Saint Bernard, Yonny is the only one I'm iffy on but I think it's named after the Papillion. (Spoilers below) The description for the Ancient Sirehound hints at dogs and humans being connected to these strange small people and dog like things in space is also maybe an explanation for these names. I was never really interested in Pikmin lore before this game but with this kind of reboot I'm having a lot of fun trying to put it together.

I love how this came out just as I finished watching all your other Pikmin videos

[@MarioGMan25]

Lord what I wouldn't give for a Hard Mode and also maybe a DLC Area. Maybe themed around a Garage or something. Or really any of the cave themes. A full on empty pet story full of various terrariums would be haunting, honestly.

21:20 I feel you man... #BringBackBulbmin

[@kirbymario2633]

22:50 they already do that in pikmin 2, they just don’t tell you about it at all. In fact they only say pikmin will be left behind if they are still planted in the ground.

thanks for putting so much love for this franchise in your video!

[@briecheese0234]

I was introduced to Pikmin on the Wii U and this franchise has never made me happier.

[@battlereadyboricua]

That was a great video and a wonderful homage to one of Nintendo's most spectacular series.

the Persona comparison DID make me happy and I thought about this too, thank you Ant

[@mannofdober873]

I swear, the Pikmin fandom is about as unhinged as Louie.

26:41 I was able to remember the groovy long legs theme but that might just be because it is a simple melody

[@BlueBerry20071]

They did the "we're working on pikmin" article again.

[@ToadPlayer64]

This is the perfect length of a game in my opinion, with the perfect amount of stuff packed in it. It didn’t overstay its welcome nor make me long for more at the end. I’m all for Louie appearing in every game. It’s so nice seeing the community band together to collectively hate on this asshole.

[@flameblazerofdeath13]

I've finally done it! I watched every single video you've uploaded and I can't wait for more
