ok

nahhh i’m gonna do my own thing*Backflips*
Nap with who now
yo mad can you do a 100 days in pikmin 4 your my fav animating youtuber btw ither than sproutposts and the secret pikmin u didnt mention was the bulbmin from pikmin 2
sometimes when i feel like procrastinating i say to myself “bro has NO dandori” and that’s what gets me to actually do things
I actually do that unironically
Dandori issue
“My dandori… needs work”
That entire sentence is the best thing I've ever heard and I wanna use it in my life now.
Today... We Dandori. Tomorrow... We Dandori more...
It is so rare to see an animated series/game review which has animation and graphic design equally as high quality as the script, personality/tone and insights.
Ahhh that’s so kind of you to say! Me and the team work really hard to make the videos as good as they can be so hearing a comment like this really means a lot!
Ikr!!!!!!!
This blend of gameplay is appropriate for kids but also attractive to adults. This is just part of what makes Pikmin my favorite Nintendo
I think that goes for a lot of other series as well like Mario and Splatoon
You mean Mario and Zelda
every nintendo series is like that except kirby until forgotten land
@@riuukover forgotten land is easier then most kirby games ngl, only star allies that shitty ass worst kirby game ever made is a way too easy kirby game. (yes all kirby games are easy but they are not so easy they aren't fun to play unlike star allies)
@@TheMadDragon212 I think Zelda is more attractive to (young) adults than kids
Small correction, Olimar doesn't "run out" of Oxygen, the Oxygen is what kills him.
Thanks sorry for the mistake!
Yeah, Dosent he breath pure nitrogen
NUH UH
NUH UH
@@uwujust_that the f you mean nuh uh?
Ah yes after Madz's tons of jokes about Bulborbs he FINALLY made a pikmin video
the animation in this is insane, there's so much detail and smooth puppetting!!! super impressive
Thank you so much!!
Can confirm that I grew up playing Pikmin, my favorite franchise, and I have yet to miss a year of my taxes as an adult. Coincidence? I'd rather not think about it.
Dandori is a lifestyle, and this might be a new favorite GetMadz video. (not biased at all.)
i know people like to complain about tutorials and difficulty reduction, but i really hope people understand how VITAL the newcomer accessibility was to pikmin 4 and its success. its gameplays is strange and unique, the 10 year gap made the game even more obscure, and holy heck the amount of times ive heard people not pick up pikmin just cause they feared a time limit/the stress is too much to count. now that we have a bunch of new comers, we can be comfortable with the future of this series :))
Couldn’t agree more!!
as a newcomer that started like 2-3 weeks ago, going in almost blind is probably the best and worst thing i could’ve done but definitely enhanced the experience (especially with the creature discovery part i LOVE that kind of stuff)
Agree
I started around pikmin 3(W game btw) so I basically knew most of the pikmin traits and abilities. My friend however was scared the Red pikmin would die to a fiery blowhog
I find it so funny that the more cutesy an Nintendo franchise is, the darker is the lore, just look at Pikmin, Pokémon or Kirby
Also, there are 3 franchises that take place in an post apocaliptic world, that being Pikmin, Kirby and Splatoon
kirby doesnt take place in a post apocalyptic earth? dream land is just a peaceful place and the “forgotten land” wasnt ended by an apocalypse, the people there just got enlightened and moved onto another dimension
@@yggdrasilsaltar I think they're refering to Shiver Star from Kirby 64, which is very clearly a frozen Earth
@@yggdrasilsaltarno earth just got mechafied lol
@@victor_creator I think he might be referring to Kirby and the Forgotten Land (correct me if I'm wrong because I never played the game)
And hollow knight
Everything is dead in it besides the ones you talk to but they die
I personally never got into Pikmin until 4. Just... the idea of a time limit always horrified me. Now I'm playing Pikmin 4 and I freaking love it. Despite the massive frustration and panic at all of the time limited puzzles.
Also I'm terrible at Dandori. I just throw Pikmin at everything and pray that it works. Usually does. In real life my Dandori Skills are completely nonexistent. That's life with ADHD😅
Same here
I honed my ADHD into a perfect dandori weapon
I'm scarred for life after that Quagmire bulborb💀
Quaggled mire(clops)
When?
As an 'old person' in their mid 20s, who experienced pikmin 1 & 2, honestly it's just really nice to see the love for this franchise is still alive.
And the sub level motif in the video is just really cute too
Pikmin 4 isn't necessarily a reset of timeline! In an interview with one of the games main developers he states that where it is in the timeline is up to each individual person. Pikmin 4's story is exactly that! Depending on the angle and perspective you look at it, you can place it at different points in the timeline!
wonderful video with beautiful animation, however i do have to point out that olimar does not run out of oxygen, the 30 days is the amount of air he has left before the oxygen poisons him
I like how every time madz enters a new sub level a new colour of pikmin joins the rest and hops in too
And louie..
IS LOUIE!
As a huge pikmin fan, I love this video. Really explains pikmin.
DANDORI ISSUUUUEEEE-

The animated pikmins are so cute!!!
Thank you!
I thought this was gonna be a whole video pointing out that pikmin can be frickin *horrifying* and probably shouldn’t have that pegi 3 (the lowest possible rating) it has here in Europe.
I mean, carrying literal enemy corpses to your base aside, a good chunk of the enemies have given me heart attacks through either trying to figure out how to kill them, or just spawning in in the first place.
(I’m not complaining, mind you, just confused)
You can also look at it like a dark perspective. You are a commander of 100 little Pikmin, worthless if on their own, and you need to fulfill your needs while preventing others from stopping you, and that can take a really dark turn when you lose every single one of you Pikmin by throwing them at a weird angle.
ITS NOT ONE OF THOSE 1000s OF FARMING GAMES ON THE ESHOP, ITS Pikmin!
There's so much to love about Pikmin 4, but one of the best parts is that it brought the series back to life. (In the public eye at least.) So many new people have started playing and loving Pikmin in the past couple months, myself included. You nailed all the most important aspects of why these games are so awesome, and I totally agree that 4 is still a rich and deep experience despite an easier difficulty level. Terrific job with this one! Every time I think you've peaked with your animation and editing, you make something even better with the next video!!
Thanks so much Hero that really means a lot!!
"Why would the characters look so cute"
So their screams of agony as they are being crushed and eaten alive hit you as hard as an 18 wheeler hits a 6 year old
Also pikmin are sentient
It's also worth noting that the upgrades are optional.
You can pick and match whatever you want to have to customize the experience. This is also helped by the fact that the same resources used for upgrades have practical use in the actual gameplay.
"This game is not for the faint of heart literally philosophically all words ending with ally" bruh how this stuff sexually not for the faint of heart 💀
Man at legs /j
My man just stood in a cave for a bit, then moved on without collecting anything. Seems like bro has a bit of a...
*D A N D O R I I S S U E*
The Dandori memes have unironically given me motivation to make me do things in life, thanks Pikmin
YEAAAAH GETMADZ LIKES PIKMIN WE WIN
Funfact about the Olimar twerking time square thing but the trend was from a close friend of mine and they're also the same person that started the Olimar PFP thingy and the Pikmin yuri trend on tiktok I love them they're genuinely a very sweet and nice person
So far, the only Pikmin game I haven’t played as of now (I’m on the later end of Gen Z) is Pikmin 1. The first one I ever played was Pikmin 2. I’ve loved this game ever since, and I truly love that Nintendo is giving this franchise another chance after 10 years, even giving it more advertisements. I can confirm, Pikmin is a game of sadness and tragedy.
I want Pikmen to be real so I can farm them and take over my home town also I want potato pikmin
7:11 You missed the golden opportunity to have pikmin carrying something to indicate the ad read.
Omg that would be perfect - next time!
I love family-friendly media that isn't afraid to bring up dark themes and casually mention death, gotta be one of my favorite genders.
I was one of those guys who played pikmin 3 when I was like 6 and waited all this time to get pikmin 4. I wasn’t even around when the first 2 games came out lol
I thought I was the only one lol
GetMadz is such a classic, man. We all appreciate you, madz!
I was 19 when the first game came out in 2001. Fell for the concept well before release, remember Nintendo sending me a pamphlet about Pikmin as I was subscribed to Nintendo Power at the time. When I bought a GCN winter 2001 Pikmin was one of the first games I went for and I really adored it. 2 was also good but one always was my go to. 3 was the first physical release I got for my Wii U after I got a new job and built up some money. Loved that right away as well. And 4 was just great. If there is a Pikmin 5 I hope I don't have to wait till I am 50 before I get to play it.
that's such a wonderful journey you've had with the series! yeah lets hope we get the next game sooner rather than later
9:41 THE BUTTON GLOWS WHEN HE SAYS SUBSCRIBE
Pikmins are the cutest designs ever
Teacher: Oh no there’s no such thing as multitasking no-
Pikmin: …
I love Moss. So sus of everyone all the time.
Your puppetry is getting crazy, dude. It's very impressive how you put videos of this quality so quickly. Also, the Dandori tip is so funny, I need to start doing that.
Bro what are the odds? Not only did i recently become a pikmin fan, but I was JUST revisiting your older videos a few days ago! This timing could not have been more perfect!
I’ve never played pikmin before but I love games where you have to manage your time so this definitely piqued my interest!
I have never played Pikmin. I should play Pikmin.
yes you should
You should play pikmin
You WILL play Pikmin.
ending was great. would watch again.
Pikmin is kind of like splatoon. Its aesthetically cute but when you get to know the lore. It gets deep.
Agreed
I’ve been waiting for a Pikmin video from Madz
I have a pikmin short out now too! :]
@@GetMadzdoes it have bulborbs
@@bulborb-plushiebetter question does it have quagmire bulborb
I know and hello get madz :D
@@SmudgeAloteven better question: does it have quag mire(clops)
7:35 we actually don't know where/when pikmin 4 takes place, theres a ton of evidence point to both sides (side 1. Being it takes place after 3, and side 2. Being it takes place in a seperate timeline when 1 took place)
"People who do there taxes" had me giggle more than it should and I'm still not sure if it was intentional or not.
BULBMIRE! QUAGMIRE BULBORB
I LOVE HOW YOU DREW MOSS AND OATCHI IM SO HAPPY 😊😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
2:15 fun fact: we've *ALWAYS* been like this in the sub, it wasnt even a recent thing that started like 2 years ago, the sub was born as a shitpost palace
Someone who says pikmin 4 is the easiest game in the series hasn’t played pikmin 3
Dude I'd never played Pikmin until Pikmin 4 and I have to say it is so underrated
"Pikmin has always been the black sheep of Nintendo"
The mother series: 💀
Mother series is done Itoi said that he did all he wanted to with that franchise
The bigger black sheep is Sushi Striker, that game doesn’t even have a sequel yet! And it needs one!
@@gay4sswhovian but almost no one know it, plus The best one is the series is still in Japan.
I began playing Pikmin 3 in 2013 when I was 5, im now 15 and still keep playing the funy plant series
2:12 that sounds more like mental instability than passion
If Pikmin is for adults then why don’t we see Louie eat an enemy alive then? /s
that's reserved for pikmin 5
the way you draw Oatchi is absolutely ADORABLE
“10,000 farming games on the eShop!” Is one of the most relatable lines. I only like one, and it’s stardew valley.
Just know, farming games will start being niche again soon
Madz your videos are always top tier!
Your too kind!!
Dandori has also helped me in school pikmin is literally the best trama game
dude, pikmin 4 changed my life-now with dandori I'm getting perfect scores in school and bearly missing any asignments. I'm in awe at how much it genuinely made me more productive, it's ridiculous. pikmin 4 builds character for real, or maybe it's just me.
I love this video, it was amazing, and it's exactly how I've always been trying to explain Pikmin to people
(Side note, just wanna say that Pikmin 3 *deluxe* is by far the easiest in my opinion, idk why they made it so much easier)
Pikmin needs an open-er world game with no separate areas or end-of-days. like a breath of the wild
pikmin of the wild
Yes!
The end of day feature is a core component of a pikmin game
"Why are the Pikmin so cute?" To make it hurt more when they die horribly because you failed them, but without the need to make the violence graphic when they're getting eaten alive. (Seriously, if that wasn't a deliberate design decision I very much doubt they'd have been doing that ghost particle effect whenever a Pikmin died)
It's sort of reversal of the way Digimon (at least Gen 1 digimon) were specifically designed to not be overly cute, so that it wouldn't feel too sad when you had your virtual pets fight someone else's (Which is something there is direct evidence of, since Kenji Watanabe explicitly stated that was his reasoning for the designs when he was making them in an interview for the 20th anniversary art book)
I think it would be more funny at the end if he got snatched up by a bulborb
Letas go it’s a good day when the goat upload keep it up 👑
The smoky progg can literally be the only reason it’s not for kids
This shit is mentally scarring. I don’t think I can ever recover from the day I lost half my Pikmin to water. I lost over 300 Pikmin that run.
1:45 as a teenager who started their Nintendo journey with Mario kart in 2013 and now PIKMIN 4 10 years later, I am now an offended 13 year old
I expected you to talk about how you literally harvest the corpses of the enemies
Fuck I love pikmin, man. So underrated.
as someone who's been playing pikmin since i was 3 years old, accessing the internet and lore theories about the game at 5, i was used to the darker aspects of it, it's kind of funny! but other than that, i love the way this video is formatted, it just flows, gives my brain the happy chemicals. the concept of using dandori in real life is a really good conclusion to come to and by figuring it out in not just pikmin 4, but all the games, could/would really help people with their everyday work.
2:14 olimar got moves💀💀💀💀
LETS GO A PIKMIN MADZ VIDEO FINALLY
I love the nod to Pikmin cover art in the thumbnail.
In the thumbnail, the blue pikmin is the only "killable" pikmin type still alive, and glow pikmin appear. Contrary to Nintendo Pikmin Cover Art, Where Blue pikmin are usually dying or going to die, and Glow pikmin have yet to appear in the pikmin cover art
my history with Pikmin is intresting
i tried 1 & 2 on the wii with the New Play Control, but i had no clue on what i was doing (please note that i am from 1996, but the wii was the first console we ever owned)
in Smash Bros Brawl, Olimar was a character i returned to several times, since his playstyle was unique and i liked how he looks
i skipped on Pikmin 3 (bad memories from trying 1 & 2)
at first i didn't want to do anything with Pikmin 4
but then i decided to the demo, not only to try the game, but also to use the character creator (i'm a sucker for character creators (heck i like Sonic Forces because of it))
and now i have the game 100% completed (in everything except those side missions)
i love seeing these games doing well, sine their so good.
1:03
GetMadz intentionally used the wrong “Their” and I can’t tell if it’s badass or annoying
Pikmin parties previously part from pineapple’s portraits.
I wish I could eat videos because if I could this video wouldn’t exist. Love the colours and stylization with this video!! Keep up the great work as always madz !!🎉
I felt called out when he said people playing Pikmin 4 in 2023 weren’t 13 year old. Cause I am and I’ve been playing the Pikmin series (in the wrong order) since I was 4. I played them in the order of 3,2,1,4 lmao
Oh Madz, you are nowhere near the bottom. The bottom is something much more terrifying than you can imagine.
The first pikmin game ive played was Hey pikmin Then I forgot about it, Then I Started Liking it after Seeing Videos of it
Pikmin are food not friends
You can say that again
Rock pikmin are scrumptious
White Pikmin are absolutely tasty
Thank you, goofy bulborb
Nooooooo.
Nah the real black sheep of Nintendo series are MOTHER/EARTHBOUND and kirbeh
The characters of pikmin look so cute, and its an elaborate child trap, 9 year old me is forever scarred by the unspeakable losses incurred against the bulbears in the distant spring, the sound of pikmin dying is forever burned into my memory, reminding my of my sins and making it feel like it was my fault for their demise.
2:15 the definition of bruh
Louis is louis is the easiest way to describe that infernal man
I played the first game on the Wii version, same with Pikmin 2 although got the game 2 months ago, I finished 3 on Wii U and now 4. I also played Hey Pikmin
As a pikmin veteran I felt my gut drop when I was playing the night time mode.
and that dammed smoky prog spawned….
"Pikmin is NOT Cute"
I didn't know you could say something so wrong but so right at the same time
I love pikmin, I was a fan before pikmin 4 and a little bit after pikmin 3
Lol "there" taxes. I love this channel already, and given the usual humor, I could see this being just a weird, somewhat hidden troll.
I'm still baffled by how so many people don't know the differences for the "theres" and the "toos." It's such an odd, funny phenomenon. 😂
I could never get into Pikmin. I remember seeing them floating around since I was an older kid. They didn't appeal to me, though. Might have tk revisit them now lol.
i mean i played pikmin 2 when i was 7 and i was only slightly traumatized
this video had inspired me to play pikmin 4 demo and i thouroughly enjoyed it as my first pikmin game (plan to get the fullgame, thanks so much!)
This was a great video! As a pikmin fan, ya covered all the bases perfectly of what this franchise is about! Though, a bit of a nit pick on just a little fact nugget. It's not that Olimar was gonna run out of Ox in pikmin 1, Ox is the poison XD
I immediately knew pikmin would be a you type game
0:46 Bro how did I never realize that they are saying "Pikmin" I always thought they just went "Meep meep"
