Fingers crossed this game is longer than Pikmin 2 and is as difficult. They made it too easy to drawnin more casuals. Ignoring its us orginal Pikmin fans who are the reason this franchise is on its 4th.
Pikmin 2 is not difficult, it only uses cheap tricks because purple breaks the game.
Not easy? Then beat the game without purple Pikmin. The boss was the hardest of all 3 Pikmin games period. Have you best the boss without losing Pikmin?
Pikmin 2 was difficult because the creatures you had to kill were more challenging. Plus you literally had to aim to make sure you don’t make a mistake. Pikmin 4 holds your hand and aims for you.
I agree that Pikmin 3 was too easy. Pikmin 2’s level of punishing is preferable, imo, which is also my favorite game in the series so far
My favorite was Pikmin 2 as well. But my favorite Pikmin type is Winged Pikmin.
Trust me Pikmin fans are not the reason Pikmin gets sequels. It has not sold enough to justify a sequel ever. We get sequels because someone at Nintendo wants there to be sequels.
Yeah I guess you right. NINTENDO sits there look at Pikmin 3 best selling Pikmin in the series and lie that it was nearly done in 2015 but can get Tears of the Kingdom and Galaxy 2 done immediately.
Im not an original Pikmin fan, in fact im just a casual that was drawnin by all the hype. Pikmin 4 will my first in the series.
