IDK why Pikmin fans are asking for Pikmin 4 it's right here



and I'm only half joking

Joke or not, this is literally what Miyamoto was referring to when he said Pikmin 4 was almost done. This game was announced like a few weeks after and released in just as short of time. I don’t get why people don’t see this as Pikmin 4.

Regardless an actual good Pikmin game on switch would be nice, but it would be more of Pikmin 5 than Pikmin 4.

To be fair, on the day of E3 2017 Miyamoto was asked about Pikmin 4 again after Hey Pikmin was already revealed in April that year and due to release in July; he said it was progressing. Personally I think Hey Pikmin really is a different game, and Pikmin 4 is just stuck in dev heck. Hey Pikmin was made by a different team too, and Pikmin very likely just doesn’t get prioritized.

Of course, Miyamoto could’ve just used weird wording I guess, but it’s not really :083:‘d to see how he could’ve really meant the next mainline title.

These should be the next following mythologies God of War tackles.

Aztec/Mayan
Egyptian
Japanese

Love to see Australian Aboriginal or Inuit but that wouldn't sit too well with its people since they still follow their beliefs and cultures today. Don't want to accidentally offend them.

The best move is to honestly remake 64 or TYOD and compare the sales numbers. Realizing that their legal team is very stupid to cut off all the creativity and uniqueness of character designs in this franchise.

That’s kinda my point though, Miyamoto said Pikmin 4 was basically finished.

That statement imo, only backs up that he views hey Pikmin as Pikmin 4. The game wouldn’t have been gold at that point, thus it was almost finished, something miyamoto literally said Pikmin 4 was.

I can’t see the game be basically done and never have any info like 5 years later. Nintendo holds onto games, but definitely not for this wrong, and I don’t see Miyamoto lying about development. It just makes sense imo. That hey Pikmin and 4 have to be the same game. None of Miyamotos statements work otherwise. Interviews probably badly translated his words or did it for the views. Either way nothing adds up here if they are two different games, imo.

No I mean I won't be able to handle Paper Mario, Sonic, and Pokemon discourse in the same year.

And it's not like it'll even matter TOK outsold the series anyways

Idk, it may be possible if Pikmin gets shoved back a lot, or if they had issues. Supposedly, insiders have said it got rebooted in 2019, but idk if it’s reliable: https://mynintendonews.com/2021/09/08/insiders-say-pikmin-4-development-was-rebooted-in-2019/

Also, Miyamoto’s statement on Pikmin 4 being “very close to completion” was in 2015, so it wouldn’t really fit Hey Pikmin either unless it got pushed back itself I guess. He also said how Pikmin teams are always working on the next one, and Arzest isn’t a Pikmin-specific team so idk. It’s just confusing all around.

I suppose it doesn’t really matter though, at the end of the day the next game isn’t coming for a long time. Unless my totally serious prediction for a reveal tomorrow is correct, of course.

But do remakes outsell that game is the really question. I love origami king, but if it had the older mechanics, it may honestly contend for best paper Mario imo.

Just read the Shrek book that was the base for the movie.

Man, it's NOTHING like the movies.

What If...?

Shrek was made in the 90s?

This was going to be a thing apparently. 2D animated with Steven Spielberg at helm as director.

Most likely would be based more on the book then what we had got. That also means no Shrek memes though and the character wouldn't be as popular as he is now.
