   Similar premise to other Pikmin games, but more inviting to newcomers. There are quality of life changes and a new dog companion Oatchi There’s no time limit to complete objectives, but there is a day/night cycle. During the night it’s basically a tower defense mode while you gather objects Caves return but are not RNG. Able to select floor you want to go to in multi-floor stage caves instead of starting from beginning Able to fully control camera instead of fixed isometric view Auto targeting. Auto lock on objects you point at. Makes selecting objects easier and with less precision making the game flow much smoother There’s a slight pause once you reach max amount of pikmin to do a task preventing you from overthrowing Auto-save helps backtrack quickly fix your mistakes via time rewind feature Auto pluck. Just pluck on Pikmin at base and your character will automatically pluck the rest (unless you do another action) Set home base at checkpoints More treasure to collect compared to past games. There’s a Sparklium meter you must fill (each item containing certain amount of Sparklium) instead of focusing on set fixed amount of treasure to advance Tutorial is very long, but in depth. Can feel really slow at first as your limited in what you can do and must wait for pikmins to carry objects back to base,. But after you get past that you have a lot of freedom in your exploration Limited voice acting. There’s a made up language the travelers have but they only ‘talk’ during key cutscenes. There’s a lot of text in the game especially early on for tutorials -Story: Try to save Olimar and bring him home. Others rescuers also attempted to save Olimar and got stuck, so must save them too. You come across Oatchi and he helps you on your journey. Story is not in line with the other 3 games and feels like a reboot Able to create your own character. Customization is very basic: skin color, body type, face, hair, hair color, suit color, and name. You are essentially along for the ride plot wise as you’re a silent protagonist -Gameplay: Core gameplay loop is to collect pikmin in the area, use them to get through obstacles/environmental puzzles, and finding lost rescuers and Olimar. RTS game so need to micro-manage pikmin and utilize them without them getting lost and/or defeated by enemies. Some obstacles require certain about of pikmin to get through -New companion character: Oatchi have a range of abilities that could be upgraded. As an ally character, Oatchi pretty much overshadows the pikmin in this game. Abilities include: Rush Attack (break through objects, attack enemies) Pull (carry capacity of 3 red pikmin at default) Dig (unbury items in the dirt) Carry pikmin on his back (so they don’t’ get lost/ singled out during fight when not using them) Ride on Oatchi for faster travel, and can jump to new areas Doggy paddle across water while carrying pikmin -New Pikmin types Ice: can freeze enemies. When you freeze enemies make sure you don’t shatter them or you can bring them back to your base. If enough of them are in water you can freeze it, but must stay in one spot lowering your pikmin count Glow: glows in the dark at night and in dark caves. Can fly but only to attack. Will auto spawn to you -Returning Pikmin types : Red : basic pikmin Yellow: low defense but can be thrown higher and farther. Immune to electricity Blue: can swim, resistant to water attacks Purple: high attack/defense, but slow. Has strength of 10 pikmin White: immune to posion. When eaten by enemies does massive damage Rock. Similar to purple pikmin, but doesn’t attach to enemies instead bounce off. Does not have strength of 10 pikmin Wing Pikmin: fly and carry objects through air -Dandori Battle: similar to 2-player battle in Pikmin 2 and Bingo Battle in Pikmin 3. Basically you just collect objects and enemies to get points. Most points before time runs out wins Overall, very approachable and smoother gamplay play experience than past titles

   Game is supposed to be good and works fine but the description of a like new used game is a lie. “Looks and functions as if it were new. Packaging shows minimal signs of wear, consistent with being opened.” The first part is true, it looks and functions as if new but the packaging, or box for the game in this case, does not just “show minimal signs of wear”. It clearly has a couple cracks in the plastic casing and the artwork has some tears. Be careful if buying this game or any other game from akiya-switch.com used as they don’t know what they are talking about.

   It’s… It’s Peakmin 4 after 10 years. That’s. That’s all. I bought the physical copy, and it looks like it’s the physical copy. Not damaged at all, and seems to be new (because it is… new.) 😭😭😭 ???

   Brand new in packaging. Pikmin 4 is an amazing game. It pays tribute to previous games in the series. Great mechanics, graphics, and game loop. I love collecting treasures. There are tons of treasures to find. If you have a switch and you don’t have this game, you are certainly missing out.

   I absolutely LOVE Pikmin! While it was a long time coming and tbh I feel Nintendo kept this one a secret for too long, they did it right with this game! This game pays such beautiful homage to the series with the nostalgic music and all the classic Pikmin moments we play this game for! It’s a mix of classic gameplay with some rpg elements and a much more expansive story and world. Not to mention for the first time we can see a true third person view of the world! The new camera angles make the world feel incredible, coupled with the new graphics you truly feel you’re a miniature explorer! Everyone will have their own opinions but nintendo exceeded my personal expectations with this one and I think anyone who loves the series (and stuck around after Pikmin 3…) will definitely love this one!

    I was very excited to play this game. However, when I unwrapped the game case, there was no cartridge inside.
