Pikmin 2 VR Changed my Life...

Pikmin 2 is one of my favourite childhood Nintendo games. But what is it like playing it in VR using the Oculus Quest 2?. Modest Pelican.
This isn't Breath of the Wild in 2022 or Mario Sunshine Two Decades Later, this is Pikmin 2 in VR

I can’t even imagine seeing the Water wraith and the Man At Legs in VR. I would be too scared

[@TheMitzez]

I 100% want to check out the Man At Legs and final boss.

[@IdentifiantE.S]

Same 💀

[@LeviAva]

Now you can experience the loss of so many Pikmin like you’re actually in the game!! The screams of pain.. it’s all I remember

[@TheMitzez]

Real

[@Wattson-ston]

Bro imagine the titan dweevil or metamites jump scaring you out of underground really cool video.

[@TheMitzez]

I do plan on exploring the final levels in this game in VR.

[@lasercraft32]

Oh man... VR Pikmin looks like quite an experience! Imagine a well-polished version of the game designed for VR, with more a more user-friendly camera that doesn't feel quite so zoomed in. That would be INCREDIBLE.

[@TheMitzez]

There is so much potential with VR games that it makes me wish companies would go more in

[@wesdert]

I'd feel like if you control throwing with moving your controllers like the Wii remote it'd be better

[@owennelson5814]

Bro imagine Pikmin 1's Emperor Bulblax or Pikmin 3's Quaggled Mireclops in VR, the TITANIC SIZES WOULD BE INSANE.

[@johnclark926]

If it were possible, I think Pikmin 4 would be the best Pikmin game to benefit from VR. Not just because the environments are detailed enough that change in perspective wouldn’t overexpose the limitations (and the view you get from riding atop Oatchi), but the auto-lock would actually feel more justified since manually aiming your cursor in first person is kind of a nightmare. The tragic part is, it’s very nearly possible for Pikmin 4 VR to happen but not quite. Prominent VR modder Praydog has been working on something called a Universal Unreal VR Injector (shorthand is UEVR) that can implement a surprisingly stable VR mode for almost any Unreal Engine 4 and 5 games, ideally ones that are in first person. While Pikmin 4 miraculously runs on UE4 and can be feasibly modded to be played in first person, UEVR comes with a catch in that it only works on the PC version of a UE4/5 game. Unless Nintendo somehow decides to break an almost 40 year tradition of refusing to port their games to PC, Pikmin 4 VR won’t be happening anytime soon.

[@MooshPaw]

But considering it's UE I wouldn't be surprised if people managed to reverse ingeneer the proyect and port it to PC However while they do it they will probably get sued anyway

emulating switch games is the closest thing we have to switch games being on pc

Pikmin 2 VR when you look behind you: *L O O W E E*

[@hussainqureshi9933]

LOL! That little AVGN clip "That's right, we're gonna cheat" had me laughing so much. 🤣 Man, AVGN is so classic and it's always good to see references to those older videos. Anyways, I love this mod and it's actually kinda cool to see Pikmin in VR. I remember watching Shesez's old Pikmin boundary break video to see some of the secrets because you just know Pikmin is the kind of game where having a perspective from something small and up close can at least be interesting. Good job on this video, it was very interesting!

[@sora6303]

Man I really gotta get the first 3 Pikmin games

[@TheMitzez]

They are all great games.

[@sherm2572]

imagine if you had to manually pick up and throw each pikmin

[@antusFireNova]

Honestly a Markiplier playthrough of all the Pikmin games would be dope

[@WaterOfLife333]

what i love about pikmin is how huge and mysterious the series can feel at times. now that ive beat them all multiple times i feel its lost its charm. i remember saying to someone recently that i wish everything was just bigger and i wish the games were harder. my most recent playthrough i realised the enemy that killed the most pikmin are the fiery bulborb. i realised that the game could be a lot harder if i just restricted myself. the rules for the "pov: your a kid and suck at games" run by me :) : -you cannot use purple pikmin for combat at all, the only time you are allowed to use them is if you literally cant progress without them (getting the globe and the water wraith) -you cannot reset the game, nope, not once, if you reset the game you fail. -you cannot duplicate sprays, thats right no pushing olimar aggresivly to get 2 bitter sprays for you -beat before day 30 (just for extra hard :) -no guides no videos to help, your only allowed to ask your best friends cousin who beat the game back in 2007 for advice, if he has played it recently this does is illegal - (optional rule) you cannot charge with your pikmin, you gotta throw em and thats it buckaroo -(optional rule) for roleplay purposes this is your first time playing pikmin 2 therefore it would make 0 sense for you to skip any dialogue or cutscenes becasue its your first time round. (i have not tested this yet so if anyone wants to give it a go let me know how it went)

[@iamnothale]

First Person Pikmin game = instant horror hit

[@vanyadolly]

I'm a VR skeptic in most cases, but this seems like the one game where it would be AMAZING

[@Bransbow]

Bro just last week I was thinking how cool a Pikmin VR game would be!

[@IdentifiantE.S]

Its really creepy 😶

[@venomasmark154]

"Have you ever wanted to live inside the world of Pikmin?" No. No I would not. Because that means I have to live in constant fear of a Water based being falling from the sky and steamrolling me and my entire squad.

[@TheMitzez]

Fair enough

[@thebigboyyay]

More realistic than any war based strategy game

[@kristinhorner4628]

That "fire bulborb" is actually called a fiery bulblax.

[@PikachuYoshie]

This is my dream game I have always thought about

"Have you ever wanted to live in the world of Pikmin?" You do, PNF-404 is canonically Earth, Olimar and the Pikmin are just really small

[@KopperNeoman]

And then he met Captain Falcon. (Fun fact: in Pikmin 3 Olimar remarks in one of his notes about a "human-shaped indentation", while this was changed in Deluxe, he WOULD know what humans are, most of the people he fought Tabuu with were humans!)

[@rosierose1819]

I thought this was going to be more VR-like, with Handtracking and stuff. Not just Pikmin 2 FPS

[@TheMitzez]

I wish something like that would happen

[@RedUmbre]

There should be a small window displaying the normal gameplay screen for reference

[@kor1064]

Did not think this was possible pr ever going to happen but 2023 does thing so a game igs

Did he call the bulb in baby bulborbs?

[@TheMitzez]

I spoke the truth no other is willing to speak

[@addisonpage1]

With some modding this could be awesome. If you add different controls so you can look up and down, a more improved sky box, and some other stuff it could be really cool

[@TheMitzez]

Definitely.

did the perspective change without changing the controls?

I really wish someone would pick back up development of dolphin vr. imagine this with a full skybox and the ability to pluck pikmin with your hand, or throw them also you really cheated through one of the shortest main campaigns. shame.

[@TheMitzez]

I cheated through it because I had already made a video going through part of it and didn't just want to do it again.

[@mercury5003]

@@TheMitzez im biased because every time i got to play pikmin 2 for just a minute it turns into an entire playthrough up to the point where the debt is paid off

[@CutMeSomeSlackTheVII]

Why did you never look up?? You made it harder for yourself for no reason

[@TheMitzez]

It causes the recording to have black bars pop up and looks really wonky, so I avoided it as much as possible and cut out a lot of the times I did

[@mustacheman529]

If you were able to look up, and the camera didn't randomly show your character at times, this might actually be a very cool experience.

[@TheMitzez]

You actually can look up, I just didn't do it much because of how it looked on video. It would cause black bars to appear and it wasn't very appealing.

[@mustacheman529]

@TheMitzez Ah, that make sense. Still, if that issue was fixed, I think it could be really fun.

[@vper93]

“This might actually” This WAS a cool experience

[@ThePikminCaptainOlimar]

[@TheMitzez]

Thank you, Olimar.

[@buildermonkey2229]

If there was an actual pikmin vr game, I think it would be like you are watching the pikmin do things without a captain from your own scale, and you can interact with them, objects, and enemies. Like a sandbox game! Maybe there could even be AR or spawning objects and enemies so you could set up challenges for the pikmin, or just help them make more of themselves.

[@lance6042]

This is going to raise some nightmares since you are now seeing dangerous creatures like Segmented Crawbster up close. It's like an Indiana Jones scene where you run away from a large boulder.

[@Drak_From_The_Healer_Tribe]

Dude, pikmin vr sounds terrifying.

[@themightyjaboccon]

Yeah this is something I did on stream a couple years ago, its a really awesome experience to be in the Pikmin world in first person VR, but you'll notice especially with long leg bosses and more so just the endgame in general that the experience gets very awkward because of just how much you can see in comparison to the base game, the final boss inparticular took me a very long time as i had to play it very safe, controlling your pikmin is alot harder when you can't see them all behind you all the time or even the full area around you. The majority is very fun, but i sure had enough by time it was done i wont lie.

I would so buy Pikmin VR. I would add a map on my hand to see the pikmin around me like a heart beat sensor.
