Un peu trop Japonais pour mes yeux de gros blancos Européen désolé
I bought a copy off ebay as a kid for around $10, didn't get it. Years later as a cultured gamer I've come around and appreciate how unique and great this series is. The first entry has limited time and getting things done effectively is very satisfying. I'd reset days knowing I could do better. The OST is nostalgic just through Smash Brawl and other greats in the game itself.
Eu e os outros 4 fãs de Pikmin no Brasil amamos esse jogo e o Dolphin.
love these little guys
i never made it to the end as a kid. past that, i don't think i even collected more than one treasure in the second zone, as a kid. i mean i was in a perpetual cycle of days 1-3, heartbroken at the sight/sound of one of my little friends dying and losing their soul to the atmosphere. it was just so much easier to play pokemon/mario where i didn't feel guilty when my videogame friends died. as an adult, the first pikmin game was a fun and quick game that was a perfect slice of game for me. the moment i started to feel like i had gathered everything that this game wanted to tell, it was just about over.
as a child, any boss that wasn't a bulborb was monstrous. but i LOVED discovering each new boss and seeing how kooky they were. i also felt so smart when I figured out how to solve a puzzle/get a bunch done in a day/beat a weird looking boss! siding with all the pikmin lovers that the ost and charm are here. haven't played other games in the series yet but super excited to jump in!

Tight, focused first entry in the series. The 30 day time limit creates a bit of pressure that later games lack (for better and worse), although once you've played the game a few times, it's not especially constraining. Mostly an easy game except the final boss, who is a pretty crazy difficulty spike, especially since the Pikmin don't always do what you want them to do. The AI on the Pikmin definitely holds the game back, since they'll make some baffling choices at times.
One of the best Nintendo Games of this century
Simply one of the best games for the GameCube. Still really enjoyable and with the Switch port even now a very pretty game.
