As soon as I saw them announce it, my first thought wasn’t how the games played or looked, but rather how’d they go about dealing with the branded treasures in Pikmin 2 (like the Duracell batteries or the bottle tops). I honestly thought they didn’t wanna go through with editing or relicensing them which is why we’d never seen a more modern rerelease but it’s interesting to see they obviously put a bit of work in there. It is a a shame though, since seeing all those common everyday items in the game added to its charm, in my opinion.

@lukers9819 Жыл бұрын
Other games in the series do not need a day limit, but I truly believe that Pikmin 1 needed that time limit to be a great game. Not for gameplay purposes, but for story and thematic purposes. Olimar's urgency to survive to be able to see his family again is such a critical and endearing motivation. If the game was simply Olimar crash landed on the planet, but there is no urgency to leave whatsoever, the game loses one of the games biggest strengths. The other games don't need to have an arbitrary day limit, but the day limit in Pikmin 1 was not just a game mechanic. It was a tension that was felt by both the story's main protagonist and the player. The fear that a father and husband might never be able to see his family again. It is the reason why Olimar feels such a depth of gratitude to the Pikmin, as he literally owes his life to them. These emotions ring true all because of what in most games would just be a limit imposed for difficulty. Not all of the games in this series need a day limit, as not all of the stories need to evoke the same emotions. But Pikmin 1 was enhanced dramatically from a story and atmosphere perspective from this one addition.

I always forget that a lot of people really don’t like the 30 day time limit in pikmin 1. For me, that time limit is the reason why I fell in love with the series. The world of pikmin is vast and beautiful, but the threat of total destruction looming overhead if you’re not fast enough really grounds the game in a way that really works for me. Yes it’s stressful, that’s the point. It makes every victory feel like a huge gain, and really makes it feel like you’re beating the odds when you have a plan go just right. Losses are similarly amplified, which makes you really care about every decision you’re making. It also means something narratively. Olimar is a normal guy put in a truly life or death situation and you get to see how he reacts to it throughout the whole game. He’s genuinely intrigued by the pikmin and the world they live and he want to know more, while simultaneously being shaken by the idea that he might never return home. The story and gameplay here feed into each other masterfully. Olimar is already well written, but the constant ticking clock makes you relate to him even more, and really care about what he’s doing all this for.

It makes it much more fun to plan and strategise to make sure you can do everything and have enough Pikmin saved up for the challenge at the end! And seeing the daily reports at the end of the stage building up to the end of the time was a great way to see it play out. The 2nd felt quite bloated and unfocused because of the extra freedom I felt.

take it from someone with personal experience with the first one, the timer is barely there by your second playthrough, and basically gone by your third lol. You have ample time to collect all the parts and can make you pikmin so efficient you speedrun it as part of the gameplay loop. also a handful of parts aren't even necessary either so thats nice (though some that are required are kinda odd tbh)
@QwixLF Жыл бұрын
Agreed. Pikmin 2 can get you comfortable with the basics of Pikmin just fine, definitely enough that playing the first after that will make the timer a non issue. But the first game is lenient enough on its own and short enough that running into the time limit isn't the end of the world.
@dooplon5083 Жыл бұрын
@@QwixLF Hell, if you screw up you can even rewind the clock on the save screen to redo stuff from that day onward, the time limit is super lenient and if you managed to do two parts a day you'd probably manage about 17 or so days of game time, hard to do fir a beginner, sure, but it just shows how lenient it really is.

I feel like the playtimes are a bit misrepresented at 7:11. Pikmin 2 is a much longer game than Pikmin 1. If it takes the full 30 days to play 1, then you'll need much more play time for 2. Consider also that the caves stop game time, so even if it took 30 game days to play Pikmin 2, that'd be more like 30-50 hours of game time

A little disappointing to see that Pikmin ghosts in Pikmin 1 are still just blue instead of changing color depending on what Pikmin type it was.

Not really sure what you guys mean when you talk about the 30 day timer being a negative, even back upon release? I was 8 years old when Pikmin came out, and even by then I had realized that a game is what the game is, not everything has to be "at your own pace". If you don't like the time limit, that's a you problem, it doesn't detract from the game. Consider that perhaps, Pikmin 1 just isn't a game that you enjoy.

Agreed. Gamers have gotten into this weird idea that every game should look, and control, and be exactly the same. Its like when people say the controls in the original Re4 are bad. They’re not bad. They’re just different.

The original Pikmin 2 has "You've collected the Husband's Tears Series! Women cry with joy, men just cry at the price." The Switch Pikmin 2 has "You collected the Expensive Sentiments Series! Declare your love and bankruptcy all at once!"

I know it’s a crime but I haven’t ever played these! So I think I’ll be doing that soon!

strong recommend. Extremely unique and charming puzzle/strategy game. Pikmin 3 has a free demo that's decently extensive, if you'd like to check out the overall idea first

I own the GameCube and Wii versions and am still considering a physical Switch version. Is a bit pricey but the Super Mario RPG remake was listed at £49.99!

I was just playing the Wii version of 2 and the higher resolution of the Switch release is pretty impressive. The cutscenes look good too!

When they announced it, I kinda hoped those games would look similar to Pikmin 3. I'm still happy they brought it over to Switch though.

Yeah, getting 60fps on these older games can be a pain in the ass, unless you want to go for interpolation that is.

I'd like to see Nintendo port the original Luigi's Mansion to Switch soon, now that Dark Moon is coming.
Very helpful review! I played Pikmin 2 on the Wii, and wanted to know how it compares to the switch version. You answered all my questions, thanks!!! 🎉

Biggest thing I want to know... In Pikmin 1 can you switch Pikmin types via the D-Pad while holding them? Or do you still have to dismiss them?

The pointer controls are definitely worse and more restrictive than the Wii versions (and both versions of Pikmin 3 as well). Only being able to move the pointer when holding down buttons is a real drag. Same with Pikmin 4. Hope they add in an option to change it.

I hope so too, I had to cancel my pre-order for Pikmin 4 because I couldn't get used to the new motion controls

The change in treasure is because of PAL vs JP vs US version They had different treasures Wonder if they are all differents

This is great, but it really does feel like these games were made for CRTs, I do not know why companies don 't offer filters or shaders to optionally use with these ported classics

Glenn says it’s rare for a sequel to improve on its predecessor? That seems like something that is true all the time in games. It’s not true in movies very often, but it’s definitely true in games.
