For all the issues the game undeniably has, I WILL defend the Pikmin helping Olimar even though they don’t know him. Mostly because they’re nowhere near an Onion, them helping Olimar is essentially him rescuing them from a remote location and bringing them to their home and basically saving their lives on an individual scale. Of course, this raises a lot of questions, like whether there’s more than one Onion on the planet, whether taking the Pikmin to another Onion really does anything to them or the Onion, and why the Pikmin are so far out from any potential Onions, but at least them actually following Olimar makes sense in most cases

Seeing this game only reminds me of how the Chibi-Robo game like this was what put the chibi-robo series into its grave and nailed the coffin shut. Still bummed about it. Edit: Just reached 30:37 and you wanna know why we haven't heard anything from the series since? It's because the studio responsible for Chibi-Robo closed or went bankrupt (from what I recall it's not known which just that the building the studio was in, as per their website at the time, was found to be vacant) after the failure of Ziplash so the chances of there being another game is basically Zero now since it was even said around when the game came out that if it didn't do well the chances of the series getting anymore entries was gonna be pretty unlikely.

But personally i feel like there stuff about hey pikmin that im kinda a bit glad to have, irs definitely a boring game and some of the bosses or mid and most of the levels can be frustrating (when your trying to go for that 100%) but there bits of it that i enjoy. The little somewhat funny and most of the time interesting clips of the pikmin just exploring or doing something a little silly. It's probably just me but i enjoy those little bits when i saw them while i played, heck theres a whole piklapedia where olimar talks about the amiibos that you can scan and collect. Also where he talk about the enemies that are a bit bland yes, but its still interesting to read them. Im not saying hey pikmin should belong with the other pikmin games, but for what its worth im more happy that we got it then mad and annoyed that its been made. But thats just my own opinion.

@JGPanther26Ай бұрын
well sure, but it speaks in the same way as the company ship from pikmin 2, it shares a name with the dolphin which, while that is olimars ship, is owned by hocotate freight (see opening cutscene of pikmin 2) and it has a very similar function to the ships of hocotate, being the whole detachment of the ships top whereas other planets seem to develop individual scouting vessels seperate from the main ship (see pikmin 4 and 3) so its definitely a hocotate freight ship no doubt about it. So maybe it was just being loaned to olimar for the time being? It's still odd though because when would he have used this ship? Considering directly after pikmin 3 he was sent back in a scouting vessel to get the main comapny ship back and by the time we hit pikmin 4 he has bought back the dolphin. So maybe he was using like a rental ship while trying to get the money for the dolphin? But then why is it named the ss dolphin 2?

Really, I think most of the games flaws are essentially *optional* if that makes any sense? Pikmin has always been a series that's about self-imposed goals (getting done within a faster time, 100%ing the items etc), just not as often self-imposed limitations, but the fact that self-imposed limitations exist I feel is kind of more of a benefit than a detriment. Have you done a zero Oatchi upgrades run? I havnt, but I have been wanting to since I first completed the game. Oh or you could do a zero flarlic run. Really, yes, the game is too easy due to a lack of balance, but you can kinda choose your difficulty by what you choose to collect.

My god..... I've seen a lot of Hey! Pikmin hate, but this tops it! Also, at the end of the game, It's revealed THAT THE ENTIRE GAME IS A DREAM/VISION given to Olimar by a strange force.... And the gameplay while different, Isn't even that bad. It's still a good little handheld adventure. And the S.S. Dolphin II is most likely just some extra ship he borrowed from the company. ...

Wait, the entire game is a dream?! What a stupid plot twist, now I definitely don’t want to play this game.

technically its not confirmed to be a dream but its HEAVILY HEAVILY HEAVILY implied at the end of the game

posting because you brought up theories of what happened to humanity in pikmin and I've been waiting for an excuse.... gonna smack it down low under a read more so its not clogging anything up, if you want to see my insane ramblings take a look. My personal theory is that pikmin takes place on earth (insane I know) BUT humans exist on a different spectrum of reality compared to the pikmin and all its species. My evidence for this is tied to the treasures, as well as the water wraith. In game it straight up suggests that the water wraith is a being that exists Between two dimensions, and the purple pikmin anchor it into One dimension so you can kill it. So running with the concept, why wouldn't all the other creatures follow suit? They all exist in their own "space" essentially, apart from where humans are. I tie the treasures into it because most of the treasures are things that could easily be lost. Ever drop something, swear you saw it fall, know right where it should be, but it just isn't there? congrats its in pikmin world now. The lack of food treasures rotting while seemingly having been buried underground or just left out could be explained away as either something with the transfer between spaces making them immune, or maybe just them being sent over recently enough for it to have not set in. stuff like the classic manhole cover peeking out under dirt, and even the clean clearly working house are somewhat more of a stretch. Maybe if something exists for long enough in one world it sort of imposes itself onto both? So something like a road could exist where it does in pikmin, but without anything removing the dirt and such on the pikmin side of reality it slowly gets taken over by nature. while something like a house is maintained enough on the human side to impose that working/clean state onto the pikmin side as well? (yeah this is where my theory starts kind of falling apart if you can't tell) It's barely put together but I've never been able to stand all the "oh humanity is fully dead and gone forever" theories because they always seem to ignore the still fresh food and working electronics your always finding. If humanity is fully gone and has been for long enough for strange new species to develop, then how the hell are we finding a fresh fried egg or a working gameboy advanced sp?

I LOVE THIS THEORY WHAT??? It's kinda like how the upside down works in stranger things where everything is a copy of anoher world but remians unaffected as time progresses. Or like things in the backrooms series "no-clipping" through reality. I did see a theory once that suggested that sparklium is some sort of pure concentrated nuclear energy which was made to keep items from wearing down. Like some sort of miracle product, hence why the treasures, the stuff containing sparklium, are completly fine while all the wild life has been mutated and have evolved in a weird way, most likely because of the nuclear radiation, this could also explain why enemy bodies contain a bit of sparklium. There's not really much evidence to back up the theory but it's another good way of explaining how things remain intact so far after humans are "gone" assuming they even are. I think the story could go either way really.

@@JGPanther26 well glad you enjoy it, its something that's been bothering me since i first started seeing people saying humanity was extinct or gone somehow in pikmin. I don't personally have much theory as to why the species of creature in pikmin are all so strange, having always personally chalked it up to just some sort of divergence long ago enough in their environments, but humanity somehow accidentally meddling and causing them can easily slot into my theory (and the theory your talking about with sparklium being some possible mutagenic factor) I really wish there was more talk about humanities presence in pikmin other then just "well you never see a human so obviously they are all dead who cares." when there's so many signs pointing to them still being around in some capacity
