PIKMIN Short Movies - Occupational Hazards- Nintendo

[@edinaldonokyojin8974]

9:55 the detail on this scene is on the 7 on the end of the value, because on Pikmin 2, when you are exploring underground areas you can use dead creatures to extract money and the Bulborb's value is 7 pokos (coins) in the actually game, this brings smile to my face!

With the success of the Super Mario Bros movie, I really, really hope that Pikmin will be made into a feature length film. They could be the more charming version of the minions in a way. And if Nintendo sticks with Illumination, they would have experience animating little creatures that speak gibberish and get into antics with one another.

The reason its price is 10000000000 and 7 coins is because the crane itself is 10000000000, but in the game a bulblorb (mushroom monster) is worth 7 coins. Nice little detail.

[@shlingusdingus4174]

There are a total of 4 onscreen deaths in this film, 3 being Pikmin, and 1 Bulborb. Two blue Pikmin are killed, 1 via electrocution, the other by predation from the Bulborb, as same with the red Pikmin. The White Pikmin is fine, as its shown that Pikmin don't take fall damage, nor do they do in-game, but in this case, due to their unique petal parachute ability. So no, I won't be counting that. However, the number of Pikmin appear to be cut short by the end, suggesting that a large majority were lost during the collapse of the machinery. If I assume right, additionally, the Fiery Blowhog was situated right underneath the crane, and the yellow Pikmin in that electrified formation deep within the machine. Because of the lack of distance of Olimar's whistle, and the Fiery Blow Hog being *right underneath* the crane and in a weakened state, they can be counted as assumed casualties, adding an additional 25 deaths, or 29 so far. Though I'm not dedicated enough to count each and every Pikmin, (although I might in the future), we can easily see from a glance that there are WAY more than the standard cap of 100 Pikmin working on this sight. More like a few hundred, but not a thousand. By the end of the film, there are 8 Pikmin standing around the deceased Bulborb, and another 22 standing with Olimar. So 30 in total. If my assumption is correct, then HUNDREDS OF PIKMIN WERE LOST. Good lord, Olimar lost a whole playthroughs worth of Pikmin in a single incident! That machine probably flattened the poor things. You got that many Pokos, sure, but at the cost of decimating like 75% percent, if not more of the Pikmin population that he cultivated.
