Ok Arlo
Ok
HEY KING
Pootis
men
Arlo is so engraved with getting people to play Pikmin that he is practically Captain Arlomar at this point and we are his Pikmin. He just flings us onto all of the Pikmin games to play them
Aww, it's so true! XD
Seriously he made it his entire life to be that fan encouraging us to play the game that at this point Nintendo should've made him the mascot of the game
That's such a wholesome image
Yes exactly
Arlomar, That's great
Finally, after over 20 years, the entire internet will know what it means to feel just like a Purple Pikmin.
Which one?!!
@@h2dfives799 Erík.
Or maybe it was Barry.
@@h2dfives799The fat one
Obese and overpowered?

Well thats just America
Arlo and Scafrillas refusing to shut up about how much they love this series really carried me it to buying it.
I already knew what it was due to Domtendo (German TH-camr, sorry if this summons other fans of his) and his Pikmin 3 lp But Arlo is most definitely the main reason I decided to join this community and when 3deluxe came out I got it.
I became instantly addicted the progress of beating the game faster than faster than before was more satisfying than many things I had in gaming before.
This series is something I hold dear to my heart now and I don't think that I can thank anyone but Arlo for reviving my interest in this series and skyrocketing it enough for me to get to playing it😊
@@zockingtroller7788 i actually have heard of . I was going through a dream team phase and ran out of playthroughs to watch so I was watching his.
I learned what it was from Nintendo Land. The real game took me a few months to beat
Them and Chuggaaconroy
SCHAFFRILLAS MENTIONED LETS GOOOOOOOOOO
It was SUCH a good move to release a demo. They gotta do this more often
The demo lasted me 5 hours and I craved for more. Nintendo made the right decision to do this.
The demo had a surprising amount of replayability to it. I made numerous saves and made a game out of seeing if I could 100% the first area before the demo ended
And yes. It’s very much possible
@@tristang7982did you know it's possible in 3 days
imho pikmin 4 was the best game to give a demo for, giving you just enough but not too much to appetize the palette, legit played the heck out of that demo until i could buy the game
for real, not only was it a long ass demo that really allowed you to get a feel for the game, i dont think i would have bought it day 1 like i did if i DIDNT play the demo, purely out of skepticism
This was EXACTLY how I felt about Pikmin’s sudden rise. This franchise has been a family favorite for decades now and I couldn’t be happier that people are playing these underrated gems.
Where did this sudden interest come from, though? It’s deserved, and I’m glad it happened, but what changed?
@Gloomdrake The Switch has been selling like hot cakes so that presents new audience's, and Pikmin 4 was made more approachable for nervous fans, as Arlo said.
This has been me as a Kirby fan during Forgotten Land.
@@GloomdrakeTears of the Kingdom flopped so people looked for something new
@@chiquita683 what?
Arlo the type of guy to shoot steam out of his ears when he’s mad
Yeah and his eyes pop out of his head when a pikman gets announced
Arlo the type of guy to sit up in bed while the sun rises, yawn while stretching his arms up in the air, then smack his lips 3 times, before rubbing his back
@@warriorseamonkey1693Do blue furry Arlo like monsters have lips? 🤔
Welll, they certainly do have jaws, and if dogs have lips then why not fuzzy blue things@@Chiller31916
Arlo the kinda guy to only fall of a cliff after looking down
I saw Arlo's passion for pikmin and thought "wow anyone that positive about a series means it must be great"
Now I own the whole series
Same here.
Massive respect for Arlo sacrificing his neck for Pikmin to prosper
he sold his soul to the devil for pikmin to prosper (the devil cut his neck to put his hand in him and grab his soul from there) what a legend
Pikmin finally becomes the next Mario at break neck pace.
@@justsomejojoyou’re trying too hard
@@BahhBahhBrownSheep Nah, I'm just having fun
@@justsomejojoeven better, soon Pikmin will soon be real. Keep a close eye on your backyard…

WE ONLY TAKE PIKWINS HERE
Arlo is the whole reason I knew what _Pikmin_ was. Thank you for getting me hooked. With the entire franchise available on a single console and the internet hyping it up, it's no wonder that the series is finally getting it's due, and I couldn't be happier.
He got me into it too.
Agreed
My god your everywhere man
I'm glad it's finally getting the recognition it deserves.
The entire series of something being on the same console is a flex 💪.
Even if it is just 4 games 😊
As an ancient Pikmin fan, I'm glad to know people are discovering the series, and realizing how much of a nightmare it can be to complete >:3
I can't wait for them to discover the minimum day challenges 😈
hehehehhe they will know true suffering
I told a Friend that Electricity was an insta-kill in Pikmin 2 and was met with a horrified silence.
@@TheKeybladeKeeper Plus the challenge modes in Pikmin 1 and 2 with #1 doing it in one day and underground modes in #2, those were fun.
The sigh of relief I had seeing just how good it was selling in Japan is indescribable. There was so much worry and hope and to have that actually not get thrown back at us is just beautiful. I already watched Chibi Robo be sent to the gallows, my little heart couldn't take losing Pikmin too.
It’s now the top selling game in Japan for 5 weeks with 710,000 sold at retail! With digital it’s definitely surpassed a million in Japan alone. Amazing growth for the series!
I don't want to jump to conclusions, but comparing it to Kirby and the forgotten land it is both selling better in Japan and is doing better on Google trends. And Kirby is on pace for 8m sales eventually. Maybe pikmin won't have the same legs or something but the potential is there for this game to hit 7-8m if things go right.
In a lot of ways, mobile phone gaming is to to thank for a lot of these recent successes. (Fire Emblem, Metroid, Pikmin…etc). A lot of new gamers crossed over from the phone gaming market and its been wonderful for series that didn’t quite catch on originally.
I genuinely think that Arlo had a pretty big impact on pikmin 4 sales. So many people I know got into pikmin purely through Arlos dedication to this franchise
Arlo is a PIKMIN EMBASSADOR at this point 😂
@@mc_vaAgreed
Can confirm, I bought Pikmin 3 and 4 because of Arlo
Arlo made me buy 3 deluxe so yeah
I bought Pikmin 4 because of both Arlo and Schaffrillas Productions so yeah that is accurate to say
As a veteran of the series who conquered every cave in Pikmin 2 with minimal casualties, it warms my heart to see streamers freaking out as their little troopers are massacred.
I truly adore how wholesome and unhinged we pikmin fans are.
I could listen to you talk about Pikmin for hours. Your joy for the series is super contagious
I know right? Its so fun to see how happy Arlo is, its sort of comforting.
@@lugi9482 It's fun to hear people gush, but he gets super into it, and I love it
After recently getting into a bunch of arguments about gatekeeping certain interests, seeing Arlo so happy that more people are looking into his favorite thing and enjoying it instead of blasting it as "bandwagoning" is so soul healing.
I love that Brandon Sanderson is being more and more recognized. He's been one of my favorite authors for years. Glad you enjoyed Mistborn Arlo (not that arlo will see this)
I was looking for this comment! I love seeing people being corrup- I mean... getting into the Cosmere. 😁
He better fkn see it
Yeah, I remember reading Mistborn books in late high school or early college, which for me would have been 2007-2009ish. His stuff has been fantastic for a long time.
My favorite author is Jim Butcher, and favorite series is Dresden Files. It’s a lot goofier/less epic fantasy than Mistborn, but I bet there’s a lot of overlap in that fan base. He has a more epic fantasy series that I really like as well, but Dresden Files is just so great.
@daniellebackus819 I enjoy the Dresden files a lot, I personally prefer Brandon Sanderson, but absolutely can see how it can be youe favorite series. I've personally been getting into Terry Pratchett, I should have started Discworld years ago but 🤷
I've only read a few chapters since I'm not much of a book reader, but it was definitely engaging! Hope I can get back into it someday. I was so surprised when Kelsier got added to Fortnite. I would've given him beard, though.
We did it indeed. Feels so nice to come out of the shadows and see it getting the love our favorite series is getting, it's ultimately vindicating.
Hey, I know you! Love your channel!
"I haven't even finished the game yet" saddest Arlo quote ever, he has a burning passion for the series and he just feels that terrible. feel better Arlo :(
Think he's just taking his time, enjoying it like a souffle and not potatoes chips
@@cledgefenrir5681 exactlyyy, i too am taking my sweet time finishing this game. i plane to 100% oh the first playthrough😌
@@cledgefenrir5681I find it impossible to take my time with a game. I have to play as much of it as soon as possible. Like I understand the logic behind not playing it all at once, it gives you something to look forward to and it lasts longer. But at the same time, I DON’T understand it. The time spent not playing it is, well, time spent not playing it. Not enjoying it.
Then again I also have an absurd amount of free time. Most people probably don’t have that luxury.
I haven't finished it either but mostly because I find it too boring. What I was scared of actually came to be, just like how I consider Pikmin 2 worse than P1 and P3 worse than P2, again P4 is worse than P3. This wouldn't have been too bad because I still think P1-P3 are all pretty good (tge drop from game to game was never too big) but P4 has gotten so bad that I'm scared about the quality of future games. If waiting almost a decade leads to something like THIS, then yikes. Not looking forward to P5.... :(
@@Pit1993xSilly flareon with fittingly hot takes uwu. I do have some issues with it but mostly in pikmin control and ai feeling more clunky than original pikmin 1. Because of that, 2 is still my fav. Plus 2 also has awesome mods like colossal caverns which is basically infinite pikmin content
I played the Pikmin 4 demo when it dropped and I just had to get the full game. I’ve been successfully converted.
Same
the demo was an awesome decision and execution from Nintendo.
People can finish the demo quickly or they can try to get all treasures.
That allows causal players to get a realistic casual game and allows "gamers" to get as much out of the first area as possible, warming up the community with discussion, guides, tips and tricks...
Arlo, I can confidently say that while I knew what Pikmin was and I always had a small want to get into the series, your absolute passion for this game shines through from one fan to another. Your passion for this series is as genuine as it comes, and that is hard to ignore.
The title is appropriate because I seriously felt like crying tears of joy watching this video. I've been wanting this series to go mainstream for YEARS, and... here it is. It's finally happening. Pikmin is being played by more people than ever before and my poor heart can barely take it! I started playing Pikmin since at least 2010 (probably a little earlier than that, really), and IT'S FINALLY GETTING BIG!
It took 22 years to get it, but it made it.
Pikmin 4 has made me want to work my way backwards through the series, it truly has sparked a love for Pikmin in me
fr I've gone back to play 1 2 and 3 lol
Please do, all 4 games in the series have their own strengths
I played pikmin 4,then i bought pikmin1+2 and then bought pikmin 3 deluxe
4 is the best.
Out of the others:
2 is the best, longest, and most engaging.
3 has the funnest overworld bits, the whole thing is overworld puzzles and stuff, also like having 3 captains that are throwable.
1 is an all time classic and the stress of the 30 day time limit is actually a lot more fun and engaging than you would think. It's definitely the most unique of the games
Same. I'm saving up to get a copy of 3 Deluxe
I think putting out that demo was the best decision they could have ever made. Just hearing about pikmin i wasn’t sure it’s be something I’d enjoy, but after playing the demo I was hooked! Pikmin isn’t something that’s easy to explain to other people, but letting people get a taste of it for free has is allowed so many people (like me!) to see how incredible the series is!
Its a lot like Animal crossing. It's hard to say why the games are appealing since they shouldn't be technically but they are
the demo was really briliant. It created a buzz and community before the game was out and a lot of content being unlocked later, there was plenty to discuss after the release.
Seeing you talk about Pikmin and your reaction to the Pikmin 4 announcement was what made me first want to play the demo. I played the demo three times then decided I wanted to just get the games. Couldn't wait for 1 & 2 to be released physically, so I just got 4 and am loving it.
Thank you very much for sharing your joy over a favorite game series with so many others.
You might not have introduced me to Pikmin, however literally everything you say I relate to. I found Pikmin and I loved it so dearly… I wanted it to be known more and didn‘t even know if it was possible. But Pikmin 4 is out, I played it and I am now considering to tie my friends to chair put joy cons in their hands and make them play through all 4 Pikmin games.
Thank you for being such a pillar for the community arlo and I am happy for you and the entire Pikmin fanbase. New and old alike!
You and Schaffrillas are the reason why I’m playing Pikmin 4 and I feel like a fool for not playing Pikmin sooner.
Go play pikmin 1 especially and the rest later if ya ever get the time. Every single game in the series is its own completely different experience to the point all of them stand to have their place with one another c:
I was introduced to the series by a smaller youtuber formerly known as Pikminjake back in the first half of 2020 and it’s been pure bliss ever since.
@@Vyloka think 1 and 2 physical hits stores next month
They seriously need to collab
I also watch both of them lol but I was a pikmin fan before I started watching them
Arlo is about to analyze every polygon and little emotion of Pikmin 4
Visiting Japan right now and there are little "who's that pokemon" quizzes but with treasures from Pikmin. I'm so happy to see it grow. It's such a special game. So many time/resource management games are stressful. Pikmin let's me scratch that itch and stay chill ❤
arlo's joy is contagious , i am very happy 4 us pikmin enjoyers
This is a pikmin moment. I love it. Such a nice change of pace for the pikmin franchise as a whole. Seeing it everywhere makes me so happy especially cause I grew up playing the first game :)
Aww, that's awesome ^^ The first one is the only one I own so far, but I love it, it also feels really nostalgic for me! I can imagine this whole experience feeling really awesome if you've been playing Pikmin for a long time, I'm really happy for the series/community! ^^
@@jellycore1316it’s super epic :)
I’m glad you’re enjoying the first game 😎
I have no idea what this game is about and I'm too lazy to find out.
Seeing my favorite TH-camrs getting traumatized by seeing the waterwraith for the first time was amazing and I will never forget it
Watched to see Arlo being happy.
10/10 did not disappoint.
Pikmin is the absolutely best series for your 4 year old nieces and nephews who are into little bugs and critters. It makes their minds go wild. But we should keep them playing with the little bugs in the wild as much as we can.
Is it weird that at 16:39 , when Arlo was welcoming new fans (like myself) into the fandom, I wanted to hug him? Like, give him one of those "Thank you" hugs? I've always known of Pikmin since Smash 4, but Arlo was the one to really open my eyes to the fandom. Hearing him sound so welcoming to new fans in a cyber landscape where hate and overall negativity tends to rule... it's refreshing.
Mistborn is amazing! Get well soon and rest up, Arlo - we'll wait for uploads whenever you're feeling able.
The pikmin memes are such a treat after so long of hearing "pik-what? what-min?"
I'm so happy. And I'm happy that you're happy Arlo.
I've literally spent the last two hours geeking out about Mistborn and trying to convince a friend to pick up the books. Arlo recommending them right after was such a funny coincidence 😂
Glad you enjoyed Era 1, Arlo - you're in for a ride with Era 2 and Stormlight Archive. Have fun, Sanderson's books are amazing!
YES ARLO YOU SHOWED ME THE PIKMIN WAY!
Sorry, I’m never early and that’s not the impression I want people to have of me. Love pikmin, love your videos!
I wish they put out more Pikmin shorts. Those TH-cam animated shorts for Pikmin 3 re-release were incredibly good.
Take it easy and hoping you a swift recovery. Very happy you are enjoying how things with Pikmin are going. You’ve done a lot to push the series into more people’s radar, so thanks for spreading the good word!
Your channel is the sole reason I was excited to try Pikmin 4, having never played any of the previous games. Fell in love with it and had to 100% the entire thing. Excited to play through again sometime and also try out the first 3 games.
I love seeing a bunch of new people playing Pikmin for the first time. Especially against the iconic enemies lol
Pikmin 4 is the very first game in the series that I’ve played and I’m hooked! Not gonna lie, it’s all thanks to your videos, Arlo… and the dog kind of sold me 😅
I’ve put about 20 hours into 4 so far and I plan to play the first 3 now. Such a charming series, thank you so much for introducing me to it!
Man i wonder if Nintendo would consider bringing back Nintendogs
@@lightdarksoul2097 I would absolutely buy that
This is exactly how I have felt. It's been surreal seeing my timeline on social medias become infused with pikmin memes and mentions after years of never seeing anything. And the art! Just random users uploading and retweeting fan art of pikmin! Of captains! Of enemies! We live in blessed piktimes.
It’s because of YOU, Arlo, that I became a Pikmin addict! Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU!
Hell yeah I just finished the second era of Mistborn and it’s rad. Would love to see those made into action games, I think they’d be perfect
I'm happy to slowly see it break more and more into the mainstream!
I tried and played pikmin 1, 2, and 4 because of you. Thank you, for telling me about this AMAZING series, that I now love
As someone who's been a huge fan of PIkmin since the first game's release on Gamecube (I was very young at the time when I first played it), I want to say that I completely agree with you that this has felt AMAZING to watch unfold. I'm very happy that Pikmin is finally getting the attention it deserves, and in a year PACKED with huge releases, at that!
Currently the same thing is kind of happening with Armored Core 6 (I'm currently playing that as well and it's amazing) and it's so lovely to see these old lesser-known franchises get the love and attention they finally deserve. Extra impressive that it's happening in a year with so many huge releases of huge franchises that are breaking records.
I got this same exact feeling when monster hunter world came out. I was a long diehard fan of the series but couldn’t find anyone to play with as a kid. I asked everyone i met if they played the game and i always got the same answer, no-one played it. But when world came out and sold 15 million copies i suddenly had so many friends itching to play. It was one of the best feelings ever.
I bought pikmin 4 based on your recommendation and it’s AMAZING! Thank you SO MUCH for bringing me into the pikmin franchise!!
Wooo!
New Arlo video!
Hope you're recovering well, and it is indeed hype to see Pikmin selling well.
I’m playing Pikmin 1 for the first time and I’m suffering (affectionate). I loved 3 and 4, struggling with 1 but I’m sure it’ll grow on me. I’m so glad I gave this little series a shot!
I’m so happy to see everyone finally playing pikmin! I’ve been in this group for a while, but it’s so exciting to see so many new people play it! The fact that there is so much advertisement, so many content creators are making videos on it, even those who never even did game related content are making pikmin content! It makes me excited to see the future.
I joined the Pikmin community not long after 2 came out. Ironically, the first pikmin game I got was pikmin 3
Dude, me and my friend played Pikmin 2 battle mode during our lunch break and it was some of the most fun I've had with a friend ever. Pikmin is so good.
Aww, that's awesome ^^ I really want to do that with my sister sometime, when she plays Pikmin for (nearly) the first time!
i love how he uses blooket/kahoot music 😭 idk which one lol
when?
@@youraverageloser the beginning
I still remember the first time I played Pikmin. I saw it one day in my friend's collection and I was curious so I asked him what it was, since the cover looked so different from all the other games. He didn't even know because he'd never played it and didn't know where he got it from. I borrowed it from him and took it home and I must have played it like 14 times in a row.
I was so fascinated and in love with the game. The heartache of becoming a fan that you and having to wait through the entirety of my school years just for another game to come out was crushing. Doesnt help that metroid and Fire Emblem are my other favorite series, and those wrent doing so hot for a while either. I'm so glad they're all seeing a resurgence
Yeah nothing has been better than seeing people discovery the beauty of pikmin and I thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping spread the pikmin love to people.
The 4 demo is what got me to try pikmin. I enjoyed the demo a lot and I'd definitely say I'm a fan now. Haven't been playing it much lately because I tend to watch things on my phone while gaming and I don't want to miss the music the game has but I'm definitely gonna finish the game eventually.
I'd have to say with the bottom of my heart that I've been in the best mental space ever since I was formally introduced to Pikmin three months ago via the Pikmin 4 Demo. I love these little skrimblos so much and they make me very happy. To think I found a game fandom that isn't extremely toxic is mind blowing to someone who grew up in the indie game fandom(s) in the 2010's. You are very welcome, Mr. Arlo. I'm glad to join you and many others in this little group of Pikmin loving people!
Your a blessing for the Pikmin community Arlo! Now us Pikmin fans can get our time to rise!
I first got into Pikmin 20 years ago and the first game was so good I got my brother and friends to try the series as well and we all still play Pikmin to this day.
I didn't realise how much I needed to see this video. As a Pikmin fan myself I cannot begin to tell people how happy I am that the series is getting alot of attention, and I couldn't be more happy for Arlo sparking peoples interest in it. Yes we did make it buddy, and we owe a bit of that to you.
I think I feel about Pikmin 4 the same way you do about Kirby & the Forgotten Land. This game allowed me to finally "get it" and has cemented me as a Pikmin fan
It's amazing how the Switch is able to breathe new life into almost every series. Almost every Switch entry of a Nintendo game has become one of, if not the best selling entry in the franchise introducing it to a lot of new people. Breath of the Wild, Super Mario Odyssey, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Super Smash Bros Ultimate, Metroid Dread, Pokemon SV, Animal Crossing New Horizons, and now Pikmin 4. Life is good.
Glad i was able to see pikmins journey from 1 to 4 and it finally blooming in popularity now.
"Blooming" - I see what you did there...
I’ve played pikmin since I was a child and I’ve always been so grateful to have you, a major youtuber, talking about it and raising pikmin awareness
Pikmin 4 is my first pikmin game, I picked it up a couple of days ago and I am so IN LOVE!!! I dont know why I never heard or knew about it before but I am so glad to be playing!! I have been in a mental rutt for awhile now, and anytime im feeling sad I turn on my switch and play Pikmin. My lil guys bring me so much joy and laughter and I am determined to not let any die!! haha. Love your videos so so much and im glad that I found them!! It is awesome to see someone love Pikmin so much!! Hope you are well and thank you for all your hard work with these videos!!
Right there with you Arlo, so happy to see so many new pikmin sprouts growing in the community of Pikmin
so happy to be a new pikmin fan!! i think that the lengthy demo was the best aspect of the marketing, because it's so hard to explain the appeal of pikmin without playing it. i for sure wouldn't have bought it if i didn't play the demo!
I’ve known about Pikmin for a while, and had considered getting Pikmin 3 Deluxe for a bit, but the hype around Pikmin 4 pushed me over the edge and I couldn’t be happier! I absolutely love the game and I’ve really only just started playing - this really is an incredible series and I can’t believe I didn’t start playing the games sooner 😭
Edit: thank you Arlo! Happy to be here :)
I may be a new Pikmin fan, but I'm enjoying what I'm playing so much that I feel like I've been a fan all my life.
As an old fan, welcome and thank you for giving the game/series a shot. It's really good to hear from voices like yours.
@@samjensen3969 and thank YOU for being one of the people to keep this series alive long enough for me to show up and realize how cool it is!
I had recently gotten into the series last year and immediately fell in love with it. I knew it was always a bit more niche in Nintendo's lineup, so to see it finally hit it big time is incredible. I can only imagine what it must feel like for fans since the gamecube days.
I can see why Pikmin 4 has sold well. It's outstanding. :)
Hope you feel better soon too, Arlo. We all love you.
I love pikmin 4 so much. I'm already on a 2nd playthrough which almost never happens with me. Its phenomenal and I bet it will get an update with more difficulty options (turning off auto lock on lol). Its also very easy for newcomers to get a hang of everything which will almost definitely help them become returning pikmin fans. Idk if this is even related to the video, I just wanted a place to gush about this game
I’ve been a big pikmin fan since 3 deluxe which I bought in large part due to arlo’s enthusiasm for what otherwise seemed a strange offshoot series and I’ve loved playing 1 2 and 4. I’m so happy for all the longtime fans that finally got what they wanted and I’m glad this great series could be resuscitated
I was actually wanting to try out Pikmin 4 as my first game but my friend insisted playing the first three before doing so. I can definitely say that I’ve become a huge fan after the first game. Just finished the 2nd game recently and now jumping into the 3rd game. So when I beat it I absolutely can’t wait to play Pikmin 4.
No wonder I finally woke up from a 12 hour sleep, Arlo uploaded a pikmin video. Loved the boundary break with shezez but happy you're doing more Pikmin so soon. Hope you're feeling a little better each day and thanks for the video
Get well soon, Arlo, I wish you all the best! You've got this!
I started playing Pikmin the week 1 and 2 came to Switch, but on the Wii U. I purchased it when it was first announced the eShops were closing but never got to playing.
It was intimidating at first but I absolutely fell in love with the series. I seriously can't believe others or myself haven't played it before. They're all so good and now I can never forget the noise Pikmin make when drowning.
You were largely the reason I decided to buy Pikmin 4, it had always just existed in the back of my mind until I started watching your videos and you just kept mentioning how much you adore the series.
Now I’m trying to get my friends to buy it, but I can’t pinpoint exactly what I like about the game, so I just describe it as “the cuteness of Animal Crossing and Kirby mixed with the stress and war tactics of Call of Duty”
Hey Arlo, hope you’re well! I wanted to say your VA work on My Friendly Neighborhood was incredible! Can’t wait for the full Pikmin 2 review!
It makes me so darn happy as someone who's been a fan since Pikmin 2 launched. It took a lot of time, but we did it! 🌻💕
I think it's really cool that a lot of people are going back and playing the first and second games. Old Easter eggs are reaching new eyes, like Fiddlebert.
Since I now own Pikmin on my Switch, I've just been playing it in the lounge where there's a TV, and people come up and just watch and relax and watch this strange little Pikmin game that they have never seen before.
I’ve been a Pikmin fan for a while now and seeing new people and so many videos playing and trying Pikmin for the first time just warms my heart.
Yes Arlo, this is because of you. I bought all 4 games on the switch. And then bought them again for my girlfriend. Pokemon used to be in my top 3, now its Splatoon, Animal Crossing, amd Pikmin. Thank you for never shuttin up about Pikmin💜
Arlo, im so sorry you are having bad neck injuries at this point in time. It actually sounds horrible and I would not wish it on my worst enemies. But trust me, people are loving it, the community is wild, and this is a positive thing. The day has finally come, and you may rest even more then you already have, knowing that Pikmin exists, and people are listing. And trust me, you will need at least a good bit of energy for some challenges and the very end game. So rest up, and play when you can.
All of my friends and I have gotten into Pikmin this year thanks to you and your videos, Arlo!
Arlo loves Pikmin, and he loves that people are starting to love pikmin. He’s the best pikmin fan! Love ya Arlo!😁

Just here to say that Arlo made me aware of Pikmin. 4 is my entry to the series and I'm loving it.
Arlo, i started watching you about a year ago off an old pikmin video that was recommended to me and i was so intrigued. I kept watching videos and loved both the game, and your charisma. I have since beat Pikmin 3 and am so excited to play 4, and the old installments !! thank you for sharing your love for such an adorable, fun game and i hope things improve so you can enjoy what you love ! ❤
Get well soon Arlo! Pikmin IS so good and I love everyone is playing it too ❤
without your hour long videos about pikmin and the retroperspective i would have never toutched the franchise probably. i really love the games. thank you ❤
There are so many Pikmin memes on Twitter it’s insane. So many Pikmin pfps and it reminds me of the time how popular Klonoa was. I was so happy

Watching this video after finally finishing the game after 52 hours of play. Definitely the best game in the series.
