The best thing about all pikmin games being on switch isn't just that new people can experience the franchise but also that I finally have new blind playthroughs to watch of one of my favourite game series.
I had never played a Pikmin game before, but I played the pikmin 4 demo and now I’m obsessed with pikmin lol. I’m so glad every pikmin game is now playable on switch, I’m probably gonna play them all.
It's absolutely insane to see someone know that whistling works but refuse to use it. I don't think I've ever seen someone do that before. Absolute madlad
Something I didn't appreciate about Pikmin until playing Pikmin 4 demo is how little talking and exposition there is and how quickly it gets to exploration. The pilots in 4 are SOOOO chatty
this game is so cute and fun! I know you feel bad every time any pikmin dies but its a learning process! you're helping their species overall and they would be helpless without you! you got this!
This is one of my favorite games ever. These games are pure magic. They look cute but are absolutely brutal. They get even better when replayed and you start optimizing your routes.
Ecstatic to find this video! I've been hankering to watch some pikmin playthroughs, so all the better to find one from a consistently entertaining channel.
I’m so happy you’re playing this game!! My first Pikmin game will be the 4th as I’ve played the demo and loved but now I’m really excited to discover the wonders of the original one with you.
Pikmin is such an underrated franchise! I will say after playing all three versions of Pikmin 1, it is still a little rough around the edges with controls and the pikmin AI. If you're playing the whole series, I think you would like 2 and 3, especially with how easy 3 is to have co-op play turned on and off if Meg wants to join.
"Your honor? In my defense-- it looked like they were just dancing!" I've never played Pikmin, and just watching the first half hour ALREADY makes me wanna go get these games for myself. I own Pikmin 3 Deluxe, but I never got around to playing more than the tutorial. I've been meaning to get back and just start from the beginning again, but I was wondering if Pikmin just wasn't for me. I think it _is_ for me. I just need to dedicate some time to really get into it.
Pik 3 is really fun, it isn't particularly long either, even if you want to grab every piece of fruit (which I would recommend doing). I'd also recommend playing hard, as then you will immediately unlock ultra spicy mode without a second playthrough, and also hard feels much more balanced and less of a breeze than normal. But obviously, you should play and do whatever sounds fun to you 👍
Lol… olimar is probably from earth… that one cracked me up. Couldn’t be further from the truth! Don’t know who you are but super excited to watch this playthrough and hope you play the others!
as someone who played this on gamecube those many years ago and rebought them on switch. the lacfk of whistle use this first day hurts me so so so much.
We should have taught him the controls at the beginning because when i see him pick up the pikmin without the whistle, it hurt me a lot as a pikmin veteran. And yes because when he hears the name (spoiler just in case) 'hocotate' he will be like this🤨
@@iraitzmm2571 Also swarming the bugs instead of ... y'know. The original still had a printed manual with the controls, so I don't think they're explained in-game aside from the cutscenes? So this might be rough; I think he's forgotten/overlooked 3 commands already.
LOL! You believe that Pikmin cannot drown yet didn't grasp the fact that the log says they are creatures, not plants! A memory to fallen Pikmin, die from battle and science.
I was gonna laugh if right after his big ol speech about how he promises never to leave any behind he couldn't find the last 7 and ended up leaving them behind
You can't actually get softlocked in this game. Once the day would have ended the single yellow Pikmin would have died from staying outside during the night. Then on the next day the yellow Onion would have given you another yellow Pikmin seed to start creating more yellow Pikmin. The Onions will always give you one new Pikmin seed if you happen to lose all Pikmin of a certain type.
That yellow pikmin could have been saved. Though, you would have been unable to break down that wall on that day. I’ll leave it at that since it seems you wanted to figure it out on your own (totally respectable)
you wanna go in blind, I can respect that. but when you get to 2 Id be happy to tell you what all the collectibles were in the gamecube version, because the censorship kinda affects the lore for reasons I will not spoil
Damn wish it was the GC original. As man the bomb-rock casualties were soul crushing XD Wait this is his first pikmin experience… well shoot way to go going from the begining
I heard this is fun to watch and while i am enjoying myself. I find i have too much of a stick up my bum about the little things hes "doing wrong". Like when he touches each pikmin instead of just calling them. I have to tell myself not to worry. Hell figure it out.
-Ryan- Olimar is definitely a terrible leader. XD I've never seen a single minute of pickmin, I just know Olimar from Smash Brothers. What a cute lil game!
Whaaaaaat .... Outer Wilds, Subnautica, The Breath of the Wild and now Pikmin?? You've been playing games I've loved. XD Not gonna watch this series now, but I just had to comment.
Brooooooo let's goooooo. I just played through these and the demo for 4! I've loved the since they came out when my aunt let us play when she used to babysit me as a child! I'm 30 now so 😅
I can’t imagaine the tourtre of being in chat and not being able to say anything while he’s like, i wonder if these float in water. I have a mouth yet cannot scream
Dude. You are playing really well for a completely blind playthrough. You crushed those enemies where a lot of people really struggle. The throwing your only yellow Pikmin over the rock wall was definitely unfortunate tho lol. Never seen that happen. Either way, loved this and will definitely watch the whole series if it happens!
'if this game lets my pikmin die I am going to be so upset'
I immediately cackled like a maniac.
honestly same, was literally bout to comment this
if this game lets my pikmin eat spores and become a last of us zombie i am going to be so upset
Hehe...
Genuinely got sad when my first little guy DROWNED HIMSELF 😭
The best thing about all pikmin games being on switch isn't just that new people can experience the franchise but also that I finally have new blind playthroughs to watch of one of my favourite game series.
I had never played a Pikmin game before, but I played the pikmin 4 demo and now I’m obsessed with pikmin lol. I’m so glad every pikmin game is now playable on switch, I’m probably gonna play them all.
And that I can finally replay it with my adult game knowledge. Also a turbo controller helps so much
@@HelieNerbplay them with a turbo controller so you can throw them faster at things and bullborbs. They won’t have time to turn around and eat them.
The bad thing about it us that Nintendo doesn't know how to price their games
It's absolutely insane to see someone know that whistling works but refuse to use it. I don't think I've ever seen someone do that before. Absolute madlad
Ugh... that was painful to watch!! 😂
I was laughing so hard during his speech about leaving nobody behind while missing several pikmin 😂
I was screaming on the inside when he wasted all his yellow pellets on reds
end of day 1 "If pikmin can die I will riot"
end of day 2 "I will send probably hundreds of you to your death"
Something I didn't appreciate about Pikmin until playing Pikmin 4 demo is how little talking and exposition there is and how quickly it gets to exploration. The pilots in 4 are SOOOO chatty
Fr
34:30 I love how he gets interrupted from talking about how he should go slow by the reminder that the clock is ticking
watching the intro monologue by olimar right now, loving how he keeps mentioning the "earth sounding names"
I really like that he tries to play with no spoilers. I love blind playthroughs
I love blind playthroughs too :) thanks sara!
this game is so cute and fun! I know you feel bad every time any pikmin dies but its a learning process! you're helping their species overall and they would be helpless without you! you got this!
"it looks pretty cute" I'm so ready for him to get traumatized
This game has some of the most iconic sounds of I think almost any of Nintendo's franchises, and just games in general
"No one is dying in this game!"
*Shifty eyes*
The pikmin music goes unreasonably hard, some of the best video game music ever made imo
“If this game lets my pikmin die, I’m going to be very upset” :Proceeds to individually name them 🤣🤣🤣
It’s fun watching you figure out this game. 10/10 video sir
32:11 - 32:30 is like some of the best blind pikmin playthrough content i’ve ever seen in 20 seconds. 😭😭
Ryan + Blind + Pikmin? Hotdog. I'm in.
This is one of my favorite games ever. These games are pure magic. They look cute but are absolutely brutal. They get even better when replayed and you start optimizing your routes.
I remember walking about 7 miles back and forth to toys r us to pick up this game when it was relased.
Don’t fret man mistakes and learning is how you get to become a pro at this game! No shame for the reset~
Ecstatic to find this video! I've been hankering to watch some pikmin playthroughs, so all the better to find one from a consistently entertaining channel.
I’m so happy you’re playing this game!! My first Pikmin game will be the 4th as I’ve played the demo and loved but now I’m really excited to discover the wonders of the original one with you.
Glad to see more people getting into Pikmin, I'm sure you will adore the 4th game!
I tried a bit of the demo of the 3rd game maybe a month or so ago (vaguely) and it was chill.
Preordered 4 and gonna have it friday :)
This was one of my favorite games when i got my gamecube as a kid
I think it's hilarious the voice that you're giving Olimar....wait til you play Pikmin3Deluxe 😅
Omggggg I love the pikmin series!!
This was my first gamecube game back in the day! So excited to re-live the experience!
Pikmin is such an underrated franchise! I will say after playing all three versions of Pikmin 1, it is still a little rough around the edges with controls and the pikmin AI. If you're playing the whole series, I think you would like 2 and 3, especially with how easy 3 is to have co-op play turned on and off if Meg wants to join.
Day 1 of asking Ryan to play Pikmin 1 was a smashing success
"Your honor? In my defense-- it looked like they were just dancing!"
I've never played Pikmin, and just watching the first half hour ALREADY makes me wanna go get these games for myself.
I own Pikmin 3 Deluxe, but I never got around to playing more than the tutorial. I've been meaning to get back and just start from the beginning again, but I was wondering if Pikmin just wasn't for me.

@CarbonKnight9 Thanks for the tips!
My dude watched one Pikmin drown and sent in two more thinking they were partying even though they were screaming in terror.
Love this!
Please tell me this is going to be a whole play through and that videos will come out regularly!
A video every day at 6pm eastern until the game is done :)
Yeeeessssss!!
Really happy to see these Playthroughs in my feed! Haven’t watched the video yet, but I’m sure you’ll love it!
Super excited to watch you experience Pikmin!!!
I feel incredibly blessed that Ryan is playing 2 of my favourite franchises this close together 😍
Please continue this! True blind pikmin playthroughs are so cool
pikmin was my childhood and this is a great introduction to your channel! love the video
I had no idea you were going to play pikmin thats awesome
"poisonous oxygen."
He must totally be from earth
Bro cmon
Looking forward to seeing this playthrough
When he soft locked himself HAHAHAH
time estimate ?
@@lilwavesz it’s been 7 months, I don’t know any more than you now.
@@DannyPotato LMAO aight my bad
the lack of whistle use is infuriating
The lack of 🧠 use is infuriating
That's the best font you'll see in your Goddamn life is what that is!
great time to get into pikmin! excited to see this
I'm a lifelong Nintendo fan but I've never played Pikmin...guess this is how I experience it!
Absolutely love Pikmin! Can’t wait for this playthrough!
Lol… olimar is probably from earth… that one cracked me up. Couldn’t be further from the truth! Don’t know who you are but super excited to watch this playthrough and hope you play the others!
Seing a new player not throw pikmins made me get cancer
"It looked like he was dancing in the water. It turns out he was drowning" I can't breathe XD.
30 minutes in and we are still struggling with the concept of whistling to call them back. I get that this is new to you but god damn.
So happy to see Pikmin! Here's hoping you enjoy it enough to play them all eventually. They are some of the best games I've ever played.
as someone who played this on gamecube those many years ago and rebought them on switch. the lacfk of whistle use this first day hurts me so so so much.
Can you do every pinkmin game in order??
"Definitely Earth"
Should we tell him?
We should have taught him the controls at the beginning because when i see him pick up the pikmin without the whistle, it hurt me a lot as a pikmin veteran.
And yes because when he hears the name (spoiler just in case)
'hocotate' he will be like this🤨
@@iraitzmm2571 Also swarming the bugs instead of ... y'know.

LOL! You believe that Pikmin cannot drown yet didn't grasp the fact that the log says they are creatures, not plants!
A memory to fallen Pikmin, die from battle and science.
Heck yes, excited for the inevitable strategy/mayhem
Once again your choice of game is top notch 😎
A new blind playthrough to watch while waiting for The Breath of the Wild? Welcome surprise indeed!
Pikmin is both singular and plural
BTW, if you lose all your Pikmin of a single color, their onions will produce a single seed at the start of next day.
I was gonna laugh if right after his big ol speech about how he promises never to leave any behind he couldn't find the last 7 and ended up leaving them behind
There's these things called "Pikmin" and they are in this game! Sorry for the spoilers...
spoiler: the "weird planet" is earth. olimar is from another planet, as seen in description for certain parts. dont ask why all humans are gone.
I loved this video, I hope you will continue till the end and try the other pikmin games :)
I wonder if he would have taken a small suggestion like, Don't take the yellow pellets just yet....🤭
You give yellow pikmin food to the red, then throw your only bomb pikmin OVER the wall
45:42 Now THAT is a tall order, I can't wait to see how the rest of the run and that promise interact going forward in the series!
as a resident pikmin player, the lack of whistle usage to gather pikmin was extremely painful to watch
I'm excited to for the playthrough of this game and hopefuly the rest of them as well!
Olimar isn’t from earth
Him: "X is the button to direct them"
Me: "oh no"
You can't actually get softlocked in this game. Once the day would have ended the single yellow Pikmin would have died from staying outside during the night. Then on the next day the yellow Onion would have given you another yellow Pikmin seed to start creating more yellow Pikmin. The Onions will always give you one new Pikmin seed if you happen to lose all Pikmin of a certain type.
Played this when I was very young. Could never beat it due to the time mechanic, I'll probably give it another go now that I am older.
That yellow pikmin could have been saved. Though, you would have been unable to break down that wall on that day. I’ll leave it at that since it seems you wanted to figure it out on your own (totally respectable)
I’m pretty sure I have an idea how to do that now (I’ve played a few more hours) but thanks for helping keep me blind on this game ☺️💙
you wanna go in blind, I can respect that. but when you get to 2 Id be happy to tell you what all the collectibles were in the gamecube version, because the censorship kinda affects the lore for reasons I will not spoil
Damn wish it was the GC original. As man the bomb-rock casualties were soul crushing XD
Wait this is his first pikmin experience… well shoot way to go going from the begining
used to play this on my gamecube all the time. never good at it since I was just a kid but I loved the collecting aspect and challenge
this is very cool :D
I heard this is fun to watch and while i am enjoying myself. I find i have too much of a stick up my bum about the little things hes "doing wrong". Like when he touches each pikmin instead of just calling them.
I have to tell myself not to worry. Hell figure it out.
Follow up. When he wasted all the bodies and yellow dots on red was awful
Omg I didn't understand his inability to use his whistle it hurt to watch lol. He's very charming though :>
yeah he is not the sharpest, takes him forever to figure things out, i remember as a kid i understood how to play rather quickly xD
oh man this is almost as exciting as when your botw series started
Your face at 39:45 or so when you brutally drown the poor pikmin..
It was at this exact moment that the game shifted for me
-Ryan- Olimar is definitely a terrible leader. XD I've never seen a single minute of pickmin, I just know Olimar from Smash Brothers. What a cute lil game!
First thing you think of with a new Pikmin is, let’s throw it in water to see if it dies 😂
PLEASE LET THIS GUY ATTEMPT PIKMIN 2
Whaaaaaat .... Outer Wilds, Subnautica, The Breath of the Wild and now Pikmin??
You've been playing games I've loved. XD
Not gonna watch this series now, but I just had to comment.
Brooooooo let's goooooo. I just played through these and the demo for 4! I've loved the since they came out when my aunt let us play when she used to babysit me as a child! I'm 30 now so 😅
NO WAY
The Pikmin are willing to die fighting for your cause
I really gotta get a capture card so I can stream my switch games on discord or maybe stream
my man aint the sharpest xD
Watching this guy fail at figuring out basic controls was one of the most frustrating things I've ever seen.
I can’t imagaine the tourtre of being in chat and not being able to say anything while he’s like, i wonder if these float in water. I have a mouth yet cannot scream
Pikmin dying? Pikmin in danger?? Nooooooooooo, never 😂
Its fun watching someone new play pikmin but for the love of god man you have to start throwing your pikmin. You cant just swarm all the time
Pikmin is Nintendo’s Robinson Crusoe.
Not sure if it was said in the stream but pikmin is like sheep. Plural of sheep is still sheep and plural of pikmin is pikmin.
It's been so long since I last saw this game 😂
I almost cried when you put them in the water 😔😔
I wish I knew then what I know now :(
Dude. You are playing really well for a completely blind playthrough. You crushed those enemies where a lot of people really struggle. The throwing your only yellow Pikmin over the rock wall was definitely unfortunate tho lol. Never seen that happen. Either way, loved this and will definitely watch the whole series if it happens!
