Pikmin

Pikmin 4 Review   If you had as much of a dislike for the Pikmin franchise as I have had over the past while, you might opt to dismiss Pikmin 4 and move on. That is what I planned on doing, but after seeing some of the work Nintendo was publishing I was a bit intrigued, especially when folks billed this as an accessible, streamlined Pikmin experience. After a couple dozen hours roaming the world of Pikmin 4, I have…

The Pikmin franchise has been one of Nintendo's best since the original title released many years ago on the Nintendo Gamecube. Since then, Nintendo has been careful to not over extend the franchise, but only releasing new titles every few years. Until 2017, Pikmin has lived and died on the home entertainment console, never finding its way to the Nintendo 3DS family of system. With the release of Hey! Pikmin, that all changes, as does the game's formula, to make it more appropriate for the handheld device.

Yesterday, there was a Nintendo Direct. The Direct covered both 3DS and Nintendo Switch titles. What did I think of the titles shown? Let’s find out! Nintendo Direct had a new format yesterday. We should talk about that first. The new list style format for Nintendo Direct worked well and had things going at a fast pace. It wasn’t too fast though. This format was definitely interesting.
