About the Pikmin spinoff LEAKS...

A new leak has popped up promising a new pikmin spinoff, but what would it be like? Pikmin is deeply rooted in its core gameplay, but its had a few spinoffs before such as Pikmin Adventure, Hey! Pikmin, the e-reader card game, and Pikmin Bloom. What would a potential new Pikmin spinoff game be like? Today, we break down the leaks and try building out ten different ideas for how a Pikmin spinoff following Pikmin 4 could be! How will this differ from the main series? How real are these leaks? Will it end up just being another mid farming sim game? A Pikmin RTS? A Pikmin RPG?

(PS - ignore how low quality that black and white 2 footage is, I could not find better quality footage of that game and totally should have gone with populous instead which I could have captured myself. And, for the record, that IS the ACTUAL QUALITY of the official trailer because the early internet is wack.)

Could a Hey! Pikmin sequel with actual Dandori elements work? Let me know!

I can't help but feel like people are overthinking the hourglass emoji... I'm pretty sure they're just saying we'll have to wait and see.

The ⌛️is More Like Its Coming Soon than a Gameplay Hint

Man!! Didn’t know there was such a leak out there!! Thx for this cool vid ❤

[lasercraft]

Imagine a Pikmin "Creature Collector" game, like Pokemon but with Pikmin. That would be awesome!

[DaYosh-djib]

I really REALLY hope that they use the Claymation style of Pikmin 2's advertisements! Pikmin is the only franchise I feel could really work well with an arts & crafts asthetic

11:27 Pikmin but lemmings sounds fun especially if it shows how the pikmin operate without a captain around

[Subreon]

Need a settlement builder to claim the wild land like in fallout 4. So many people are going to the planet now. The natural progression is that they want to build new towns and tap into untouched resources that are free for the taking and are boundlessly available

[flashfire]

I think a pikmin cave creator where we create our own cave and choose the enemies, hazards, treasures, pikmin types, etc would be fun.

Another game I think would be cool is a game similar to monster hunter stories or Dragon quest monsters where we could take control of enemies (maybe through parasitic bulbmin like pikmin.) And fight other enemies in the series.

13:48 I was very concerned for a second when you said "Pikmin shipping" game.

I dream of one day getting a Pikmin farming simulator spin-off... Like Stardew Valley or Animal Crossing but Pikmin. Just a chill game full of adorable Pikmin,

[nintendoforecast]

Superb video. (Although your Metroidvania section gave me the mental image of playing MP4 and Sylux pulls off his helmet to reveal Louie).

If this is real personally I'd want Tower Defense, it's proved it could work with the night missions in 4, and maybe they could just build off that

[TheReal-Skymario]

An idea I have for a Spin-off of Pikmin is Tower Defense we already seen some elements of games like that in Pikmin 4 with Night Expedition and I would love to see it expanded upon like during the day you build wall trap to defend the Luminol and as the game progresses new harder enemies and new areas will unlock

17:44 Pikmin garden sounds awesome making environments to raise different types of pikmin and other creatures

[Weegee_the_portal_master]

I think a Mario + Rabbids style of gameplay would be really fun. You would play as Olimar, controlling Pikmin on a grid, and it could implement some sort of long-rang Pikmin. This would also work well to fill a gap that might be made if Ubisoft doesn’t agree to make more M+R, as they considered Sparks of Hope an underperforming failure.

[zacharyweaver]

20:41 if we get a game where the pikmin help farm stuff it's a great opportunity for the koppatites to return

[Omba]

If they did a piklopedia simulator they could definitely add to the lore of the series and give even more descriptions for all the creatures

[PoketronPokey]

A time based pikmin spin-off I would love to see in the future is a mario party style game. Time could affect the boards similar to Mario party 6, you would collect specific pikmin to help traverse the board to collect treasures, and also the minigames could utilize dandori. There could be a board dedicated to a specific pikmin type and time could cause specific enemies to show up anf alter the board. There can be a lot of possibilities and also The Pikmin Park could be brought back to act as the Mario party 2 coin bank where you can not only unlock minigames, but also other extra characters, game modes, and adding enemies to a pikmin museum. The unlock structure would be having a certian total of a specific pikmin instead of spending pikmin to unlock the content.

I've been waiting for PIkmin to have more spinoff games. It's seems like there's tons of potential ideas for a franchise like this.
