Why does Nintendo hate Pikmin?

*notices egg*
oWo what's this?

Don't open it

where the sequels any good?

Luckily you didn't take into account that your GIANT ASS was exposed

2 was fantastic, but the removal of the time limit and the holes are fairly divisive when it comes to debating whether it's better than the first or not
Didn't enjoy 3 as much as the others, but that's not to say it's bad

2 was superb. 3 was subpar, it's failing lied within its new control scheme. That's generally how it is with nintendo games that came after the gamecube.

2 used to be considered the best of the series around here, but lately I've been seeing people talk shit about it for being more of an expansion pack than a real sequel. I still like it the most, even without the caves the world just seems bigger and more rich with shit to do. 3 is just sort of okay. The new characters aren't as likable, the music's not as memorable, and they dropped the c-stick swarm function in favor of the ability to have all your Pikmin charge a single object/enemy. I personally also found it to be piss easy.

bloks ur path

>tfw no parasite pikmin that take control of an enemy of your choosing

>hear about that bosses alternate name dorodoro
>pop a hard one because some videos i watched on youtube(route 207 films if your degenerate and want to know)

>blocks your path
>actually wants to help you and will be an amazing ally
what did he mean by this

>tfw you can't bring the bumbmin with you in your rocket

he blocks your path to be cute

Olimar has gone on record saying that he is disgusted at the tactics the bulbmen employ

I remember seeing these the first time while playing long into the night and thinking I was hallucinating or something. It was the weirdest fucking thing seeing the Piklopedia article after I got out of the cave.

>blocks your path
Tetrisbros will understand

same here, seeing it was like the shit you see when having a dream about vidya

Hey, a Pikmin thread.

>Piklopedia
Who gave a FUCKING DELIVERY MAN the authority and education to give all these creatures scientific names

so who is that one enemy/bods you always dread seeing? it's the decorated cannon beetle for me

better than what I would have named anything
"Red midget"
"blue midget"
"yellow midget"
"posion midget"
"thief Midget"
"cute bulborb midget"
"giant fucking spider"

These guys

the giant black spider
I remember playing 2 player vs mode with my brother and he never would believe me that there was a spider boss on one of the maps because it was the one map we never played with each other, then i showed him it. I always dreaded seeing that guy. that and the robot spider. and the normal spider that can just FUCKING FALL OUT OF THE SKY IN PERPLEXING POOL(My brother let me to get him pikmin when he was in the shower and that fucker showed up killing 20% of his army. thank god the boss drops a bunch of pellets. Elliot if you are reading this I am so so so sorry. also get the fuck off Sup Forums while you still can

I hated these motherfuckers in 1 and 2, I don't remember them giving me much trouble in 3 though.

>thief midget

I just want it to go away.

That Snagret Prime that can jump around on the surface of the ground. It's less the boss itself and more that you have to fight it in a sandpit thing that impedes your movement.

Now that's what I'd excpet from a delivery man
Olimar has to have some background in expedition and exploration we don't know about right

>its just a hairy ball sack with legs
also nice filename

*blocks your path

I would assume so, he does seem pretty smart

Elliot here, i have AIDS.

what game were you playing on sunday

I mean theres such a contrast between him and all the other protags Louie, the president, even the Pikmin 3 Protags
I have the strange felling Olimar's is the life of an educated man gine wrong

Maiden Rape Assault: Violent Semen Inferno

No purple pikmin eh? cool cool gonna just fuck your shit up now.

not the same elliot.
sorry to hear about your aids stranger(I reccomend getting a spoon and scooping it out while it is still wet and gooey before its too late)

It's not even the worst piece.
Green is worse.

>doooooo dooooo dooooo doooooooooooo

I always hated the square

Kek

Gattling Groinks or Spotty Bulbears

As far as bosses go, Man at Legs

>tfw trying to perfect the mission with 2 groinks and a man at legs

Shit was hard

Massive Pikmin leak

...

I'm not sure I understand.

How much is that guy getting paid to do that.

200$ max.

>that time in in Pikmin when you are first swarmed by Puffmin and dive head first into water only to find that formerly blur puffmin retain thier resistance

Fuck Man at Legs.

Also, post your game rankings:
Pikmin 3 > Pikmin 1 > Pikmin 2
Fight me, cavefags.

2> 3> 1 nostalgia wise
3>2>1 actual wise(keep in mind all of the games are amazing)

You asked for it...

Is this that one guy who had the bottle break inside his anus while his family was over in the next room?

...

2=3>1
1 is still great but it lacks a bit of the polish of the others

I wonder what it smells like
Haha.

>SO YOU BE SAYIN' WE WUZ GRUB DOGS N SHIEEET

>let me guess...curry for dinner?
kek

I remember losing my shit when the beady long legs showed up in Perplexing Pool. I thought my game was glitched.

Take a big whiff

>people fearing the Man-at-War

Do they just not know the tactics? All you have to do is hide behind cover when he shoots, then pop out to attack. Rinse and repeat.
Literally the easiest (but most time consuming) of the giant spiders.

It's just really fucking intimidating. The fact that you can always see exactly where it's aiming lets you know when you're fucked.

I won't deny that. Plus the way it moves is pretty creepy too.

There's only low walls during the fight in the secret testing range mission, making it a lot harder to keep all your pikmin alive. Plus he's surrounded by water so you can't get as many free hits in.

I'm more mad at it in challenge mode. That's the only level I haven't 0-deathed. I'll never see the cutscene in-game because of that fucko.

Lets not ignore the fact that its a bio-mechanical monstrosity that reveals it's own internal viscera every time it opens itself up to reveal it's guns.

speaking of man at war is it ever explained what it is?
I know that the game is supposed to take place after some kind of nuclear war so is that some kind of weapon they made?

it can't even control itself either
>The Man-at-Legs has a gentle disposition, and as a member of the arachnorb species, it has no natural enemies. It is particularly difficult to understand why this species would develop such awesome offensive capabilities, leading to rumors among the scientific community that it was the machinery that approached the arachnorb and proposed the symbiotic relationship."

piklopedia for it said that its a piece of machinery that fused with some bug, and that the machinery acts all on its own. the bug part of it doesnt really want to hurt anything.

This thing used to intimidate the hell out of me.

>fight it for the first time without knowing anything
>tfw thirty pikmin get corrupted at once

I'm pretty sure that's how it works in real life, if you discover something you get to name it. A bunch of dinosaurs have been named after the scientists that found them.

thats kinda sad
reminds me of the early stage zombies from Last of us where the human is still conscious and alive but control itself

Used to for me as well, but it's not even a threat once you get good. All that sucks is when knocking it over all your 'min up and decide to fall through the floor.

I'm gonna add onto this and say that this thing, plus the whole forest navel area scared the shit out of me. that place was spooky

2=1> 3
I feel that 1 did a great job with the time limit, it actually felt pressing as a kid. 2 did a great job with exploration, the world in 2 has always felt the largest to me. 3 felt like it tried both, and did both worse than 1 or 2. The food didn't matter at all, and I had a surplus from the moment tutorials ended. 3 definitely had the coolest variety of pikmin though.

/r/ing a picture of Olimar that says "Good luck, I'm behind 100 Pikmin"

>Tfw the last mission is the only one I haven't perfected yet in Pikmin 2

It taunts me

I fucking loving Pikmin, really I love it too much, its a perfect game.

I wish this enemy came back, we was fun to fight. I also feel like the only one who thought Goolix was neat.

>so scared of this thing that I just punched it to death instead of having my army corrupted
Eat shit mushroom fag

>we
On the Internet, no one knows you're a mushroom

You're not alone. Pikmin is good, solid multi-tasking puzzle-solving fun.

Goolix, water wraith, and plasim wraith.
are they the same?

oh did i step in something?

hello darkness my old friend

>leaving them on the planet at the end of the day

them not jumping on the water stream is the saddest thing ever

"This loathsome creature is in fact a parasitic form of Pikmin that has infected a bulborb. Unlike Pikmin that nest in Pikmin Onions, this parasitic relative spends its life inside the body of a host, usually a bulborb. Juveniles fall in line and mimic the actions of their parent until maturing to full independence. By burying its rootlike limbs into the nervous system of the host bulborb and infusing it with natural hormonal excretions, the bulbmin is able to control virtually all of the host's bodily functions. However, the host's voracious appetite seems impossible to suppress."

And it keeps on you too not like the other arachnids fuck gives chase. So a pikmin lagging behind is doomed to begin with.

...

2 is alright, not a big fan of the semi-randomised dungeons though.
3 is a bit closer to the original thematically so I like it more.
