Pikmin (2001) Retrospective - A New Favorite Blooms
In this video, we take a deep dive into 2001's Pikmin for the Nintendo Gamecube. With the recent release of Pikmin², it only seems right. This is a game that passed me by as a kid, but I was eager to dive into as an adult once it dropped on Switch. Does Captain Olimar's plight of survival and loyalty hold up for a first time player nearly 25 years later? Only one way to find out. Let's pluck some Pikmin, fight some Bulborbs, and see if we can make it 30 days.
