Absolutely excellent melding of the supreme polish of 3 with the cool experimentation of 2. It feels like the big shake-up entry that completely expands the series - the Metroid Prime or Ocarina of Time to Pikmin 3's Super Metroid or Link to the Past. I can see this being so many people's favourite Pikmin game, and this was the exact game they needed following up 3 and the 10 year hiatus.
For me, I think it's so huge and grand that it somewhat overstays it's welcome - ultimately that fast paced problem solving life organising feeling of Dandori was better felt in 3 for me. I'll never say no to more Pikmin, and almost everything they tried was a success - but on a personal level 3 might still remain my favourite just for how comforting it feels to crack open that game, try and do a faster run or perfect a Mission Mode stage.
It's still supremely excellent though, and one of the best times I've had on the Switch!
