So the game looks amazing, loving the fact that all the Pikmin types are back. But why no 2 player main campaign? That was honestly one of Pikmin 3 Deluxe's greatest contributions to the franchise. I hope it comes back in an update otherwise I'll be very sad to see it go.
Playing Pikmin 3 with my wife was one of the biggest appeals and one of the main reasons I was looking forward to this one. I think I'd still enjoy this game but it's a massive disappointment for me to be honest.
Glad I’m not the only one. I have been so excited for months after playing pikmin 3 deluxe co-op story with my girl, and i’m honestly pretty let down….why would they make such a great advancement, just to rip it away? i’m hopefully they may add it one day but it took likr 6 years for then to add it to pikmin 3….. :(
yes all nine type pikmin in fourth game series and clamper and goolix 3:11 and 6:37 from pikmin 1 have both return along with armor cannon beetle 3:15 and 6:38
I loved this franchise ever since I saw the teaser on luigis mansion on the game cube. Saw that trailer for pikmin 1 and said I need to try this game. Got it and got so sad when I lost my first pikmin that I named bob... I was about 5. I never beat the game. 4 years later I watched a walkthru and re fell in love with the game and I finally beat it. Now I've played em all. Beat em all and can't wait to reunite with Bob and all my pikmin buddies and hopefully not kill em all... (wing pikmin are the cutest, I'll die on that hill(unless they aren't showing the cutest one in pikmin 4 yet))
This pikmin looks amazing. It has all of the features every previous pikmin had and more. Every type of pikmin as well and underwater exploration. Second best Nintendo game this year right up there with TOTK.
I kinda was expecting after all this time the graphics would look better than they do. They just kinda seem meh from like 20 years ago when I played both of the first two games on gamecube I mean this isn't that much of a leap if I'm being honest...
@@WaterspoutsOfTheDeep bro if you're gonna judge a whole game on its graphics then maybe you should stop playing them altogether and also what are you even talking about? this game looks great
@WaterspoutsOfTheDeep I think you just struggle with communication. It sounds like you're judging the game by its graphics, which you think seems outdated.
@@WaterspoutsOfTheDeep I mean, it's the law of diminishing returns. So long as the graphics are serviceable I don't care much. Pikmin 1 was pretty advanced (I felt) for the time it released in terms of visuals, but the series has always been standout for the interesting enemy types and level aesthetics more than actual graphical fidelity. 20 years later things aren't much different. Art style is more important than the nuts and bolts of the engine or whatever.
While I am absolutely going to love this game. 2 Player coop in 3 is absolutely one of the best things ever to me. And coop challenge mode in 2 was also spectacular.
@deanmalto1386 probably but the rewind feature seems pretty dumb since they already a redo a previous day feature. Removing co-op to add a feature that essentially already existed seems like a huge backstep.
@@deanmalto1386I think it’s more that oatchi would be the second player as you don’t have any other captains and with the ability to ride on oatchi that might be hard to implement. In Pikmin 3 you couldn’t whistle captains controlled by the other player so problems like that could happen with oatchi. Anyway yeah it’s disappointing that the co op isn’t that good
Same i was never really fond of the mario galaxy like Co-op would have preferred something like Pikmin 3 me and my brother had a blast with that. I do hope they bring it back and take it a step further and have online multiplayer so u don't have to share a screen.
This game looks great the only things I’m skeptical about are the two players mode being a downgrade of pikmin 3 deluxe and how you can only have three types in you’re group at once
God, I’m so excited.. Pikmin is such a special little gem, with the full series being on switch, I hope it finally gets more recognition. The new additions and returning features are making this look like THE Pikmin game~
When I saw that the Man At Legs was coming back, my mind began racing out of excitement because it was my favorite boss from pikmin 2 because of how insane the concept is, and it'll look even better with the new graphics, so I'm really hyped now!
@@Benjynsungubarring Miamoto doing a miamoto and making Polly stupid decisions regarding gameplay, it’ll hopefully be a better than ok vidjagame, it might not we’ll see
Just finished the demo and wow this game is incredible. They really thought of everything in terms of quality of life. Every time I thought I had seen everything, it threw something new at me. This very well might trump Pikmin 2 as my favorite Pikmin game. Absolutely love this series
This is the sort of "my dream Pikmin game" you would see on the internet by someone that has completely unrealistic expectations in every way, except... it's REAL. This is absolutely insane.
Beat the first 2 coop with my lil bro thanks to mods. Thought for sure 4 would be coop as well since 3 had it. Seems we can't beat the series together unless I wait for another talented modder to bless me. Bummer, I've tried to play Pikmin solo but co-op just makes this series infinitely better.
This really feels like a true sequel to pikmin 2. Caves, access to all pikmin types in the main story and the return of classic pikmin 2 bosses (empress bulblax, man at legs)
I've been a fan of this series since discovering the Wii ports back when I was a little girl. Seeing it grow for the better warms my heart. This looks like such a blast to play and it looks so expansive with a lot of story. Bring on July!
@@ootfan7882 I think I got hold of mine in 2009 or something? It just makes me feel so old looking back at how this was more than 10 years ago...but the experiences I had with both Wii ports were incredible. Really hoping 4 gives me the same feeling.
I don't like how your in an actual house instead of it being like a post apocalypse scenario but I'm glad they're bringing back caves from Pikmin 2 and the rewind feature seems cool.
@@louiepikmin3184This is untrue. We see items lie Duracell batteries buried in the snow that don’t appear degraded in the slightest. It clearly hasn’t been that long
It's still definitely post apocalypse... if it wasn't, where would all the humans be? We wouldn't just... leave our houses on the planet, untouched, leaving all our stuff in there. I assume it's a nuclear or biological (ie disease) scenario and enough time passed that nature recovered?
Let's be honest.. the lore is not the best part of Pikmin (specially not after that gold alien God). It's its core mechanics and simplicity in exploration and combat.
The new features such as the new night expeditions and underground areas look so cool, along with the new glow pikmin and this game having all the previous pikmin types- I can’t wait to play it
My only concern about the game is Oatchi seems like it performs actions that Pikmin already did. We see him breaking obstacles down, something the rock Pikmin did. We see him carrying the team across water, something that the new ice Pikmin were supposed to do. Does this mean he steals their thunder? I'm all for new things being added, but additions need to serve a mechanical purpose. You can't just say "here's a cute dog" and expect it to work out. Regardless, I'm still getting the game and I'm sure it'll be great. I remember thinking that Pikmin 3 looked incredible on Wii U, but by any measure this one looks even better.
I was concerned about that but after playing the demo I really like oatchi. He doesn't have many powers at first and they specifically designed the maps/caves to limit his power. For example cages with small gaps pikmin can pass through but oatchi can't. Or ledges you can throw pikmin on but you obviously can't throw the dog. He really smooths out the gameplay though since he can just carry your pikmin so you don't have to worry about 1-2 pikmin getting randomly lost or you being 1 pikmin short of carrying something and having to go back for more tl;dr He's pretty strong but he also has weaknesses
Not having true co-op like Pikmin 3 is kind of a bummer, BUT the game also looks way more ambitious graphically and in terms of gameplay so I can’t complain. Can’t wait!
I'm very disappointed that the story mode doesn't have true co-op like 3 Deluxe did. Playing that with a friend was probably my favorite experience with the franchise. The demo was still loads of fun, and I fully expect this to be my game of the year.
I played the demo and I have to say one thing: AMAZING. I have never played pikmin before, and it was an amazing journey, I love the effort and the graphics. Omg I hope I can purchase this game soon!!❤❤
seeing Empress and Emperor Bulblax again is amazing, and seeing the Man At Legs was a kick to the face, this game is shaping up to be fantastic and I can't wait for it
Seeing the Emperor Bulblax have a new attack that makes Pikmin panic (much like the mitites) is about to make me cry man I had enough trouble with that thing in Pikmin 1
Something to note, man at legs is back, with a couple of pikmin 2 bosses coming back i fear the possibility of a certain thing on 2 stone rollers whos form is in another dimension coming back too, but it would be fun to see how it would look. You know who im talking about
So bosses and caves are back, purples and whites are back, and no day timer in caves. Pikmin 2 is one of my favorite games of all time.. So im happy to see more of this.
Reportedly time does pass while in caves, but at about a tenth of the normal rate, meaning you can spend at least 2 hours in a cave if you get there at the start of the day
So hyped for this. So far it looks like the game will be amazing! So glad they’re bringing back all the old Pikmin while introducing new ones and the Piklopedia returning is also greatly appreciated.
I’m saddened that full on co-op isn’t in the game, but the rock thing is neat. The practice mode with the Piklopedia is very good too. Rewind is also a cool addition.
@@Xenorvya I was actually of the same mind as you regarding the new rewind option when I saw it. But, I surprisingly found it really useful as I played the demo for 4 and I've come to like the rewind option now because of that. No, I didn't use the rewind option to save any pikmin that were killed by monsters, I actually used it to get myself off of an island like area after having made a series of mistakes with my pikmin placement and gotten myself and my pikmin stuck on the island with no other option but to either drown my pikmin and grab the 10 pikmin I needed or waste the rest of my half day by just ending the stage there. It was then that I remembered the rewind option and it quite literally saved me the heartache of having to drown 20 or so of my yellow pikmins lives lol.
From the looks of things, the 10 year development was worth it It seems we’ll be getting every pikmin type back, considering that it seems there will be every enemy returning along with new ones, we might see the bulbmin and puffmin make a return, and that alone excites me I was 7 when pikmin 3 came out, and I’m so glad we finally got another game in the series, the franchise means so much to me and I’m very excited to get my hands on the game when it comes out Thanks to my sister I’ll be getting it, I can’t wait to go back to this treacherous planet and overcome its challenges once more!
As someone that has Pikmin 2 as his favorite game ever you better believe that this is thr Pikmin ive been dreaming 4 would be all these years. I couldn't be more hyped for this game. My biggest gripe sadly is the lack of true co-op like in 3 deluxe. Such a weird and bad decision honestly. Dandori battle also is fun but not as fun as thr other games' battle modes. Still everything else about it is absolutely perfect. I need this game NOW
@@College-Bball-Gambler I hope so cause it was such a lovely addition to 3 deluxe. And yes 2 is just so 🤧👌. The caves seem like they'll be really fleshed out which I'm so excited for as well
Rewinding time is a pretty nice quality of life update; as someone who tries to go through the games without losing any (or at least a minimal number of) Pikmin, this will be far better than having to reset the whole day to try again!
Nintendo, i don't want assistance, i want a hard pikmin game, with good pointer aim (no autoaim) and lots of strategy, that is what pikmin truly is in essence, a strategy driven game, just like wii u pikmin 3 missions. If you want it to be accessible just design games to be able to activate assistance as wished even at the very most beginning, al well as being able to select a very hard difficulty form the get go, without getting through the campaign several times.
Demo was great, game plays really nice! Got my pre-order set up, I look forward to diving into this game fully when it comes out :D Also yes to those mentioning the first three are on the Switch, I am aware thanks :3
Honestly the original pikmin scared me because as a child, playing a game with a time limit is stressful But I DO want to be a tiny little black explorer!
Being a 90’s baby I loved playing this mysterious game called Pikmin released back in 2001 it was one of the coolest things I’ve ever played being a leader of these little dudes and making the best of things 😂
I'm so glad they they're bringing back every type of pikmin and not just replacing the other 2 types with the new types And i love how they're bringing back some old bosses too
I preordered this when I got TOTK and I cannot wait to play it! I’ve played every prior Pikmin game and loved every single one, if this game is anything like the others then I’ll spend hours upon hours playing it and greatly enjoying it
cant believe after years of this game being “near completion” its actually releasing
This game has been in the lab for a long time
"Oh, we're almost done" "We should bring back caves" "oh we're almost done bringing back caves" "oh we should add night mode" "oh we're almost done with night mode" "oh we should add a base camp with upgrades" "ok we're almost done adding a base camp" "oh we should add a training mode" "ok we're almost done adding a training mode" "oh we should scrap our predesigned character and give the player a customizable avatar" "....are we ever finishing this game?"

Not the best multi player mode, but I'd be darned if I said you can't abuse the crap out of it.

but did you play Hey! Pikmin?
@@ma_gician any true pikmin fan knows we don't talk about Hey Pikmin!
I don't like how your in an actual house instead of it being like a post apocalypse scenario but I'm glad they're bringing back caves from Pikmin 2 and the rewind feature seems cool.
Yeah like the whole point of pikmin is it happens long after humans go extinct so idk how this works from a lore perspective
@@louiepikmin3184This is untrue. We see items lie Duracell batteries buried in the snow that don’t appear degraded in the slightest. It clearly hasn’t been that long
It's still definitely post apocalypse... if it wasn't, where would all the humans be? We wouldn't just... leave our houses on the planet, untouched, leaving all our stuff in there. I assume it's a nuclear or biological (ie disease) scenario and enough time passed that nature recovered?
Let's be honest.. the lore is not the best part of Pikmin (specially not after that gold alien God).
It's its core mechanics and simplicity in exploration and combat.
@@Big_Dai I mean, the Plasm Wraith is pretty consistent with the Umibozu lore, along with the Goolix and Waterwraith
So hyped for Pikmin!!
How does Olimar find his way in every Pikmin Game? He’s like the Stan Lee of bottle cap stature
The new features such as the new night expeditions and underground areas look so cool, along with the new glow pikmin and this game having all the previous pikmin types- I can’t wait to play it
Glad to see the piklopedia making a comeback. All the lore it added was great
5:25 That would of killed all your pikmin in the first two games.
True
Pikmin was the first game I ever played and I've been obsessed for 20 years. July 21st can't come soon enough
THEY DID NOT JUST SHADOWDROP MAN-AT-LEGS OH MY GOOOODDDD
Spitter with a gun RATTLE EM LEGS
THE REAL PIKLOPEDIA IS BACK!!!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉
My only concern about the game is Oatchi seems like it performs actions that Pikmin already did. We see him breaking obstacles down, something the rock Pikmin did. We see him carrying the team across water, something that the new ice Pikmin were supposed to do. Does this mean he steals their thunder? I'm all for new things being added, but additions need to serve a mechanical purpose. You can't just say "here's a cute dog" and expect it to work out.
Regardless, I'm still getting the game and I'm sure it'll be great. I remember thinking that Pikmin 3 looked incredible on Wii U, but by any measure this one looks even better.
I was concerned about that but after playing the demo I really like oatchi. He doesn't have many powers at first and they specifically designed the maps/caves to limit his power. For example cages with small gaps pikmin can pass through but oatchi can't. Or ledges you can throw pikmin on but you obviously can't throw the dog. He really smooths out the gameplay though since he can just carry your pikmin so you don't have to worry about 1-2 pikmin getting randomly lost or you being 1 pikmin short of carrying something and having to go back for more
tl;dr He's pretty strong but he also has weaknesses
6:30 MAN AT LEGS!! IM ABOUT TO LOSE SO MANY PIKMIN😭😭😭
Yoooo that's dope ! He is back !
Not having true co-op like Pikmin 3 is kind of a bummer, BUT the game also looks way more ambitious graphically and in terms of gameplay so I can’t complain. Can’t wait!
Woo! Pikmin! I'm so glad the series is still getting so much love 4 games in
I'm very disappointed that the story mode doesn't have true co-op like 3 Deluxe did. Playing that with a friend was probably my favorite experience with the franchise. The demo was still loads of fun, and I fully expect this to be my game of the year.
I think they will add co op in a dlc at some point
I cant handle the voice 🤣 sounds like a immature version of Dora ... I didn't think that was possible
I played the demo and I have to say one thing: AMAZING. I have never played pikmin before, and it was an amazing journey, I love the effort and the graphics. Omg I hope I can purchase this game soon!!❤❤
seeing Empress and Emperor Bulblax again is amazing, and seeing the Man At Legs was a kick to the face, this game is shaping up to be fantastic and I can't wait for it
Seeing the Emperor Bulblax have a new attack that makes Pikmin panic (much like the mitites) is about to make me cry man I had enough trouble with that thing in Pikmin 1
@@TuxumWhat Pikmin fan HASN'T had a hard time with the Emperor Bulblax in Pikmin 1?
@@LittleAl016 I didn't even remember it was a thing.. older Pikmin games are like a fever dream
THE CHARACTER IS SO CUTEEW
I cant believe the growth that “128 Marios” has done over the years
Something to note, man at legs is back, with a couple of pikmin 2 bosses coming back i fear the possibility of a certain thing on 2 stone rollers whos form is in another dimension coming back too, but it would be fun to see how it would look. You know who im talking about
So bosses and caves are back, purples and whites are back, and no day timer in caves. Pikmin 2 is one of my favorite games of all time.. So im happy to see more of this.
Reportedly time does pass while in caves, but at about a tenth of the normal rate, meaning you can spend at least 2 hours in a cave if you get there at the start of the day
Pikmin isn't Pikmin without crash landings. Oatchi is very cute!
So hyped for this. So far it looks like the game will be amazing! So glad they’re bringing back all the old Pikmin while introducing new ones and the Piklopedia returning is also greatly appreciated.
Bro, that’s flat out a house. And that’s a freaking wedding ring! We are about to destroy someone’s marriage!
I’m saddened that full on co-op isn’t in the game, but the rock thing is neat. The practice mode with the Piklopedia is very good too. Rewind is also a cool addition.
The rock thing reminds me of Super Mario Galaxy's "2 player mode"
Disagree with rewind, but I agree with the other things.
@@Xenorvya I was actually of the same mind as you regarding the new rewind option when I saw it. But, I surprisingly found it really useful as I played the demo for 4 and I've come to like the rewind option now because of that. No, I didn't use the rewind option to save any pikmin that were killed by monsters, I actually used it to get myself off of an island like area after having made a series of mistakes with my pikmin placement and gotten myself and my pikmin stuck on the island with no other option but to either drown my pikmin and grab the 10 pikmin I needed or waste the rest of my half day by just ending the stage there. It was then that I remembered the rewind option and it quite literally saved me the heartache of having to drown 20 or so of my yellow pikmins lives lol.
From the looks of things, the 10 year development was worth it
It seems we’ll be getting every pikmin type back, considering that it seems there will be every enemy returning along with new ones, we might see the bulbmin and puffmin make a return, and that alone excites me
I was 7 when pikmin 3 came out, and I’m so glad we finally got another game in the series, the franchise means so much to me and I’m very excited to get my hands on the game when it comes out
Thanks to my sister I’ll be getting it, I can’t wait to go back to this treacherous planet and overcome its challenges once more!
I downloaded the demo today. I haven't finished playing yet, but I love it so far. I'm definitely getting it when it comes out! ^_^
As someone that has Pikmin 2 as his favorite game ever you better believe that this is thr Pikmin ive been dreaming 4 would be all these years. I couldn't be more hyped for this game. My biggest gripe sadly is the lack of true co-op like in 3 deluxe. Such a weird and bad decision honestly. Dandori battle also is fun but not as fun as thr other games' battle modes. Still everything else about it is absolutely perfect. I need this game NOW
I think they will add co op in a dlc at some point, pikmin 2 is the best pikmin 🤟
@@College-Bball-Gambler I hope so cause it was such a lovely addition to 3 deluxe. And yes 2 is just so 🤧👌. The caves seem like they'll be really fleshed out which I'm so excited for as well
Rewinding time is a pretty nice quality of life update; as someone who tries to go through the games without losing any (or at least a minimal number of) Pikmin, this will be far better than having to reset the whole day to try again!
This seems like the hardest, most advanced, most exciting Pikmin game in the history of all of Pikmin.
I get to be a hero!
3:14
We have long awaited his arrival, behold
The one, the only
THE ARMORED CANNON BEETLE!
Woo, he’s back!
Nintendo, i don't want assistance, i want a hard pikmin game, with good pointer aim (no autoaim) and lots of strategy, that is what pikmin truly is in essence, a strategy driven game, just like wii u pikmin 3 missions. If you want it to be accessible just design games to be able to activate assistance as wished even at the very most beginning, al well as being able to select a very hard difficulty form the get go, without getting through the campaign several times.
Downloading the Demo now, I haven't played Pikmin since the first one back on the Gamecube, been hoping to get back into the series~
The first 3 games are on switch now too!
They also have the first 3 on switch
Demo was great, game plays really nice! Got my pre-order set up, I look forward to diving into this game fully when it comes out :D
Also yes to those mentioning the first three are on the Switch, I am aware thanks :3
Can’t believe they are bringing back the Piklopedia, that was the best feature of Pikmin 2
PLEASE add true campaign co op! Pikmin 3 was a blast with my niece! Made it entirely worth it!
And the demo is SO GOOD!
Why am I crying? This looks amazing
So much hype! I've been waiting years for a true Pikmin follow up to my beloved Pikmin 3 and we are finally here! It's so unreal!
never played pikmin but always thought the characters look great, this game is looking wonderful and might just be my intro to the series. well done
emperor bulblax! he’s back! maybe this time he won’t be so easy to beat? and the man at legs! I can’t wait!
Honestly the original pikmin scared me because as a child, playing a game with a time limit is stressful
But I DO want to be a tiny little black explorer!
It’s been over a decade - can we ditch the Mario Galaxy style of co-op in games that absolutely could have a better implementation of multiplayer?
Being a 90’s baby I loved playing this mysterious game called Pikmin released back in 2001 it was one of the coolest things I’ve ever played being a leader of these little dudes and making the best of things 😂
looks really cool but hopefully there's some kind of hard mode as it looked quite easy with the new mechanics like rewind time
Alright, Nintendo. Cough up the Oatchi plushie. I know you're making them.
I'm so glad they they're bringing back every type of pikmin and not just replacing the other 2 types with the new types
And i love how they're bringing back some old bosses too
I’m so excited to play the full game, that demo was fantastic. I didn’t expect to be able to play for over 3 hours.
How did you get the demo?
@@NotAllCatsAreNice it was available in the eShop!
I did the demo too and it took me the same amount of time.
@@theprogamer397is it still there
I preordered this when I got TOTK and I cannot wait to play it! I’ve played every prior Pikmin game and loved every single one, if this game is anything like the others then I’ll spend hours upon hours playing it and greatly enjoying it
6:36 The visuals looks clean ngl.
That’s why it took so long
The oh no ship exploded is just a running gag now
I can’t believe they are bringing back purple and white Pikmin!!!
