Perhaps the deepest and most central source of this dissonance is the mechanical objective of the game. the dialogue, which is largely light and humorous (but not quite funny), undercuts the literal events of the narrative. pikmin 3 deluxe, the switch port of the game, also included a camera mode, so you can get right down there with alph and the others to take photos of the pikmin. olimar does appear in two of the shorts, though it's not made clear what circumstance he is in. these shorts were mostly about the pikmin, with no trace of a global starvation event. pikmin 3 came with the release of three animated shorts a year later. there are several ways this impacted the tone of the game. at this point in the series, nintendo started to understand how cute and marketable the pikmin are. This duality is most apparent in pikmin 3, which narratively has the widest scope and the highest stakes. the pikmin themselves are also a major contributor to the cute aesthetic. you're in a pretty little garden with petals falling from the sky and flower pots and the beauty of lightly eroded civilization reclaimed by nature. The second is the cute, gardening aesthetic of the game. feelings of otherworldliness, isolation, and wonder. olimar, marooned on a planet, left to die olimar and the president searching desperately for louie the koppalites with the fate of their world on their shoulders. the first is the harrowing sci-fi adventure part of the games.

The identity of the pikmin series is perpetually at odds with itself. The scope of the series expands over time, starting with an individual, then a company, then a whole planet. koppai has run out of food, so they sent these explorers to pnf-404 to collect the various alien fruits and feed their hungry planet. In pikmin 3, you play as alph, brittany, and charlie, an explorer trio from planet koppai. he and the president of his company return to find louie and make more $$$. after the debt is repaid, olimar goes home, but leaves louie behind. olimar and louie are tasked with finding treasures on pnf-404 to repay the debt the company they work for has accrued.
In pikmin 2, olimar returns to pnf-404 with louie. In pikmin 1 you play as olimar, a space trucker/amateur scientist from the planet hocotate who crash landed on a "distant planet" (earth) later named "pnf-404." you have to use the pikmin to recover the parts of olimar's ship before the toxic atmosphere kills him. Real quick: the plot of each pikmin game. maybe that's a post for another day :-)įor if you haven't played the game: the pikmin are fucking adorable, there's a bunch of like cute bugs and shit that you kill, and there's stuff you collect. i don't wanna talk about it because it is complicated and this post is already too long and windy. Uhhh right off the bat i'm just gonna say that i'm not really gonna talk about colonialism in the games. as someone who is known to think and write a lot about pikmin, i felt it would be proper for me to make a blog post about it.
generally, i think it looks awesome, but i have some concerns. Hello! the pikmin 4 release date trailer just came out on the nintendo direct.
