Okay, so I'm getting the thumbnail ready so I can hit the big "publish" button.

Arlo How would you feel if HAL Laboratories did a My Hero Academia platformer with Kirby, Meta Knight, King Dedede, Bandana Dee as secret unlockable characters with a secret final boss being All for One fused with Dark Matter?

Arlo finishes his rant at the bar. The man next to him smirks and pats Arlo on the back, doing his best to reassure the friendly, blue monster. "Hang in there, bud. I'm sure it'll be here soon." The man's mild optimism abruptly disappeared from his face as he turned, staring down into what was left of his drink. "Oh, hey, I'm sorry," Arlo said to him, "I never actually got your name." "My name? Ah, it's not important" the man mumbled, his gaze shifting to the middle distance as he lifted his vice for the final sip. "I'm just another F-Zero fan."
F-Zero? more like Zero-F given by Nintendo i think it would be cool to see a game with all Nintendos racing game concepts in one diddy kong racing kirby air ride ect
The joke would ALMOST work if it wasn't for the fact that now I have to imagine Arlo actually drinking alcohol.

"Pikmin 4 is actually an internal tech demo created exclusively to showcase a physics engine to be used in the next Mario game. It will never be released to the public". - Shigeru Miyamoto, 2021
When I hear “Pikmin teams are always working on the next one“, I can't help but imagine Nintendo literally throwing Pikmin around, which then start programming the game.
Every single Nintendo fan better buy Pikmin 4 so Nintendo continues to support the series. It’s such a unique, quirky, fun game that deserves to be played by many. Buy it. Buy it twice even.
GazryGames I hope it does well whenever it releases like pretty much all games, but telling people to buy it just for the sake of increasing its sales and not because they're actually interested in the series can backfire greatly when the next game comes and the people who bought the first game just to help don't buy the next one because they're not actually interested in the series.
I played the hell out of the original pikmin on GameCube when I was like, 7 or 8. And then again when pikmin 2 came out in 04 when I was 9. And when 3 came out I got it close to launch day if not on launch day. It’s been nearly a decade since then. I’m a whole adult, almost 20 years older than I was when the series first launched. I’ve watched games come and go, communities come up and die out, server launches and server retirements. This is the one that hurts the most. Not because it’s dead but because we haven’t heard anything in years, and I’m getting worried we might be getting Duke Nukem’d here. Pikmin 3 was great and I’ve heard the deluxe release is incredible, and if that’s where the series leaves us, that might be okay. But I’d really like one more great pikmin game to close it out.
@@beelzzebub Actually having Pikmin 3 on the system is not the worst idea. Since the game was on a console no one played, publishing on the Switch would expose it to a larger audience and thus allow Nintendo to gauge whether or not there is interest in a Pikmin game. Also Pikmin 3 does not deserve to rot away on the Wii U and should be brought over. I mean if they brought over the 'new' super mario bros game from Wii U then surely something like Pikmin 3 should be brought over. Hell maybe even HD remaster the original 2 Pikmin games while they're at it also.
The updates Miyamoto have been giving us on Pikmin 4 are pretty much identical to the ones he gave us about Pikmin 3 after Pikmin 2 came out. My hope is quickly dying for it to come out before 8 years after Pikmin 3.
It truly is a feeling looking at videos by Pikmin RUclipsrs talking about their want, hopes, and wondering just where Pikmin 4 is. Knowing now, on this date in the year 2022, we know Pikmin 4 is finally on the horizon next year. Thank you Arlo for your continued love of this series, as you were part of the reason why I finally picked up my courage to try a Pikmin game. I may not have struggled like the rest of the fandom, almost 9 years each between releases, but the burning desire for more Pikmin burns within me too. I'm waiting, right alongside you and many others.
_"Whyyy_ do you need to know?!" "I need it!" "Uh-uh! Don't you think about runnin' off to play no other strategy games! We've been developin' _Fire Emblem: Three Houses_ for two years!"
Honestly, I felt like the "told not to say much by PR" thing was less "The game needs to not be talked about and PR wants me to keep my mouth shut" and more "PR noticed that I'm constantly stringing people along for a game Nintendo isn't confirming and asked me not to do that".
Matthew Harrup If you take the difference of the Pikmin 1 to Pikmin 2 gap and the Pikmin 2 to Pikmin 3 gap, you get 6 extra years; 9 + 6 = 15 and 2013 + 15 = 2028 so therefore Pikmin 4 will come out in 2028... maybe
I could see a F-Zero port happening at least. They should be able to tell how much people have loved the F-Zero stages in MK8 and all its good good music in SmUsh
this reminds me of the time my brother in despair declared KH3 would come out before FFXV. I'd definitely expect Pikmin 4 before any of the others though.
1. Most of them are tiny spin-off mini-games. (Meanwhile Mario gets 2-3 full fleshed games whether they're spin-offs or not and that not only gets a pass but seems to be actively encouraged XP) 2. Different studios that handle different things. If HAL can make that many Kirby games and the Pikmin Studio can't, then it's more the Pikmin Studio's fault than Kirby getting "preferential treatment". 3. By that logic, on the flip side why keep making Pikmin games when there's so few of them over these many years? Why not can the series and direct those resources to another series so it can get more games? All that isn't a good reason for the series to end, mind you. But at the same time neither is shaming another series for getting more games solely because another series gets less. Especially as stated before if the studios making these series aren't the same and don't interfere with each other's production and rate of releases.
Ah, if only he knew he had to wait exactly TEN YEARS AND EIGHT DAYS since pikmin 3 for Pikmin 4. As i am writing this, it’s July 13th, 2023, Pikmin 3’s exact 10-year Anniversary. What a day. The last 8 days for pikmin 4 will be painful…
I still laugh every time I see that video of gabe Newell doing voice over for dota 2 and they try and get him to say triple kill. Classic hilarity ensues. Idk why valve hates doing 3rd games I a series but I really want portal 3.
Plot twist: Pikmin Bloom started development back in 2014 and was the game Miyamoto was referring to all this time. That's obviously untrue, but... geez, would that be crushing. XD
I doubt a direct will even be this month. I've been waiting most of this month and so far nothing happened but some game reveal trailers which for most of them, I don't even care about besides Yoshi.
@@miragevarietyproductions3361 There's still 2 more possible days that a Direct could happen this month (the 24th and 31st). It does seem less likely as we go, though.
OMG I was literally searching for news on pikmin 4 when I suddenly found yours uploaded 1 minute ago, I’m subscribed to you but didn’t see the notification, I was in the mood for pikmin speculation and found this
Mother 3 is a game only released in Japan, but many fans of the series want a localized version, Nintendo hasn’t made on though, and many have given up hope. I was making a joke that pikmin 4 will also be highly anticipated but not released for decades.
@@fool9711 The problem is more that Mother 3 is basically unlocalisable. There are some very, very heavy themes in the game including death and the use of psychodelic drugs. If Nintendo was to release Mother 3 in the West, it would probably receive very high age ratings (an M in North America, either a 16 or an 18 in Europe). To censor Mother 3 would entail removing several parts of the game which are core to its plot. There is a fan translation which exists, and NoA has done absolutely nothing about it. Every so often, the people who made the fan translation sell GBA cartidges of it, but the easiest way to do so is with an emulator, and we know how Nintendo dislikes emulators. This is unlike Mother 1 (also known as Earthbound Beginnings) which was fully localised in English but was never released due to its localisation being completed after the SNES released. That game was later put onto the WiiU Virtual Console, but that was basically putting a game that was already localised onto their online distribution storefront.

*Reaching the end of 13min video titled Where the Heck is Pikmin 4???. Arlo: "So there you have it folks, absolutely none of your questions have been answered." Not gonna lie I actually laughed really hard at that. I really enjoy your content even though on the surface these kinds of videos specifically seem kinda pointless. It's all about the presentation and entertainment value.
Just got into pikmin… and now arlo posted pikmin 4 speculation video…… I am posting this at a 2 year since posting from Arlo….. pikmin 4 needs to be announced now
if you remove all Pikmin context in the intro sounds like masterful poetry. "I have lost track of the days I've wandered this wasteland. Do they number in weeks, or months, or years now, I cannot tell. There is no life here. There is no rest, no respite. Another day has come and gone and still there is no word, not even a glimpse of light on the horizon to spark hope in my heart. The memories of the past still haunt me; playing across my mind when my spirit is at its lowest like some cruel jest. Will I ever escape this wasteland? Will I find what I seek? Will the light ever come? I do not know. All I can do is continue to wander."
This video gets funnier and sadder every passing year. It has been over 3 years since this video, and still no Pikmin 4. We do have Pikmin 3 Deluxe on Switch, and a mobile game akin to Pokemon Go, but no Pikmin 4. It looks like the next console is the earliest we can expect it at all at this point. Poor Arlo…..
@@pkshyguy Now all I have left to do is finally play Pikmin 3 Deluxe (which I wanted to be my first Pikmin game but I just haven’t been able to get around to yet) while we wait for the game to release! 🌺
Last time I played Pikmin I was in elementary school. Now I'm in highschool and I'm still waiting for Pikmin 4. Pikmin 3 is what got me into gaming so it holds a special place in my heart. I have so many memories of when I played it. I remember I would always get lost because back then my sense of direction was garbage. I remember the yellow pikmin were my favorite because I thought they were the cutest with the big ears and no mouth. Sort if like how I liked waddle dees. And I remember that I would feel bad for losing even one pikmin because I loved them so much. Sometimes I would even cry if I lost too many. I would get so scared to fight a boss and would have to ask one of my brothers to do it for me. Eventually I moved onto other games because pikmin was too difficult for me and eventually I forgot about it. But I bet if I were to play it now I would do a lot better. But I can't play it because my wii u is broken beyond repair. So I want Pikmin 4, dammit!
Love how this video is now 3+ years-old lmaooo but seriously, where tf is Pikmin 4?! The gap between Pikmin 3 and 4 is now longer than the wait between 2 and 3
@@firepork082 it's kind of a big deal to a lot of people and could potentially invalidate this entire video when the direct DOES come. He's supposed to be a Nintendo news authority, but he's talking about huge news releases that haven't even happened and predicating videos upon the content of the non-existent direct.
Pikmin 4 May have started development for the Wii U so when they say it started failing they put the game on the back burner and started to move assets. Hopefully they either are doing a really really good job upgrading the assets so it actually looks like a switch game and not an upscale Wii U game, or they just started development with the switch’s power in mind.
I mean, the power gap between Wii U and Switch isn't that big. (I think between Wii and Wii U was the last big one we'll get, sadly. It was always so much fun to see what kinda huge strides the graphics would make in the next system.)
I just now thought about the fact that it is completely possible for them to be making Pikmin 4 a first person 3D game, which would explain part of why it is taking so long for it to be released.
A lot of people will be disappointed because it's not a normal direct. Plus AC and Metroid fans will attack it because they're impatient and want a direct for them.
Scoobert Doobert impatient? It's been almost two fucking years since Metroid Prime 4 has been announced and Nintendo didn't show any gameplay footage that appeals to their customers.
@@kazoorion7993 2 years?! Man that's a whole life time. I'm sorry. Anyway, in all seriousness, I'm mostly talking about AC fans. Metroid Prime 4 is definitely happening this year, or at least it'll have a reveal. My point was that, if Pikmin 4 was revealed before Prime 4, Metroid fans will be upset.
I'm Looking for NES Tetris and Duck Hunt on Nintendo Switch Online, Metroid Prime 4 still not yet announce. On January Direct is taking so long and The Download 2019 Direct not yet announce too. Be Patient.
I’ve never played a pikmin game before, but I’d like to try the series out at some point. Either way, I hope for your sake Arlo pikmin 4 comes out sooner rather than later

It’s stuck in Virtual Console land
:(
Holy crap its been 2 years and thus video is still a relevant question.
Dam it's 2022.. still no Pikmin 4 announcement!
Lol, try waiting as long as I have.
Oh hello
I’m sorry, VNN. You didn’t deserve this.
I'm just waiting for a valve game in general
@@benholt4463 artifact, l m a o im gonna fucking big cri
No...
As a Nintendo insider I can guarantee that it is coming, it will be announced when Mother 3 is localized.
Ah, okay, just a 20&” release.
So it's never happening
@@IcyDiamond At the rate we're going, it seems like it.
This hurts because it’s true.
lemme see your twitter profile credentials
🎉👏🎉 *Arlo has officially complained about the lack of Pikmin 4 1,000 times!* 🎉👏🎉
Happy birthday Arlo! lol
You have unlocked:........
Hey Pikmin 2!
We are the champions!
Little do we know pikmin 4 is a 600 hour game with 12 new pikmin
Plot twist: Pikmin Bloom started development back in 2014 and was the game Miyamoto was referring to all this time.
That's obviously untrue, but... geez, would that be crushing. XD
If there’s a direct this week, this video will be outdated very quick
I doubt a direct will even be this month. I've been waiting most of this month and so far nothing happened but some game reveal trailers which for most of them, I don't even care about besides Yoshi.
@@miragevarietyproductions3361 There's still 2 more possible days that a Direct could happen this month (the 24th and 31st). It does seem less likely as we go, though.
That is, if Pikmin 4 is in the direct
Don’t jinx it
@@miragevarietyproductions3361 dude I've been waiting on yoshi since the October of 2 years ago, when full on trailers were made for it
This is one question I ask myself everyday
Exactly
This is the Arlo Channel Trailer pretty much
Squantle Pin This Comment.
Squantle this is hilarious 😂😂
AttackingTucans thanks man
ITS HERE AND YOU CAN PLAY THE DEMO NOW
I like how it has been put in the game category for Pikmin 4, perfect.
OMG I was literally searching for news on pikmin 4 when I suddenly found yours uploaded 1 minute ago, I’m subscribed to you but didn’t see the notification, I was in the mood for pikmin speculation and found this
"We are almost finished with Pikmin 4"
**PLOT TWIST: It's Hey Pikmin 2 and it's for mobile and Switch**
*Cmon Reggie give us Pikmin 4!*
He'll throw a red Pikmin at you instead
He can't, he's too busy playing Animal Crossing New Leaf on the battle bus.
How about Fire Flower as a playable character instead
@@IcyDiamond he must feel like a purple Pikmin first.
Xeno Best X How bout Golden Sun 4 instead?
it's hiding behind an overly lengthy pikmin bloom trailer!
At this point, I'd take a Switch port of Pikmin 3.
Your wish has been granted
@@cgmaster2 yeah...
A week after I bought a Wii U for the regular game...
lol
Done
Riley Goddard That is truly sad. Now you have a Wii U with no purpose.
Gosh damn, it’s been 3 years, and Arlo’s precious Pikmin has not yet returned with Pikmin 4…
Thanks to his patience, they eventually returned and were successful!
Probably just in the pantry with mother 3.
what are you talking about
Mother 3 is a game only released in Japan, but many fans of the series want a localized version, Nintendo hasn’t made on though, and many have given up hope. I was making a joke that pikmin 4 will also be highly anticipated but not released for decades.
Or in the void
It fell in the hole.
**DUUUUUUNNN**
@@fool9711 The problem is more that Mother 3 is basically unlocalisable. There are some very, very heavy themes in the game including death and the use of psychodelic drugs. If Nintendo was to release Mother 3 in the West, it would probably receive very high age ratings (an M in North America, either a 16 or an 18 in Europe). To censor Mother 3 would entail removing several parts of the game which are core to its plot.
There is a fan translation which exists, and NoA has done absolutely nothing about it. Every so often, the people who made the fan translation sell GBA cartidges of it, but the easiest way to do so is with an emulator, and we know how Nintendo dislikes emulators.
This is unlike Mother 1 (also known as Earthbound Beginnings) which was fully localised in English but was never released due to its localisation being completed after the SNES released. That game was later put onto the WiiU Virtual Console, but that was basically putting a game that was already localised onto their online distribution storefront.
Finally arlo is made another Pikmin 4 prediction :D
It has been decades....But it's finally here, after DECADES. Our wait, was *NOT* wasted.

Anyone here watch 🅱F🅱?

I've never played a Pikmin game but I really want to play it

Play pikmin 2 first
“There’s a whole bunch of directs coming” this poor soul hasn’t experienced 2020
*Reaching the end of 13min video titled Where the Heck is Pikmin 4???.
Arlo: "So there you have it folks, absolutely none of your questions have been answered."
Not gonna lie I actually laughed really hard at that. I really enjoy your content even though on the surface these kinds of videos specifically seem kinda pointless. It's all about the presentation and entertainment value.
Seeing this arlo video pop up in my feed is almost as awesome as actually getting pikmin 4. 👌👌👌
"Where the Heck is Pikmin 4" I literally think about it every single day.
Coming back in September 2022! We now know!
Just got into pikmin… and now arlo posted pikmin 4 speculation video…… I am posting this at a 2 year since posting from Arlo….. pikmin 4 needs to be announced now
I come from the future
We may all rest now
Answer: In someone’s garden
update: 9/14/22. You are now happy Arlo.
At least the third one’s coming to switch,that means they haven’t completely forgotten at least
if you remove all Pikmin context in the intro sounds like masterful poetry.
"I have lost track of the days I've wandered this wasteland.
Do they number in weeks, or months, or years now, I cannot tell.
There is no life here. There is no rest, no respite.
Another day has come and gone and still there is no word,
not even a glimpse of light on the horizon to spark hope in my heart.
The memories of the past still haunt me;
playing across my mind when my spirit is at its lowest like some cruel jest.
Will I ever escape this wasteland? Will I find what I seek? Will the light ever come?
I do not know. All I can do is continue to wander."
Hello from the future, I've got good news
It ran away, just like how my dad ran from home
So your black?
@@handsomegrinch6279 that's a reference too Undertale
Venomous Spider sans?
I thought YOU were the one that ran away from home tho
@@handsomegrinch6279 nah probably a drunk white guy.
They tend to leave to have sex over seas and never return lol.
This video gets funnier and sadder every passing year. It has been over 3 years since this video, and still no Pikmin 4. We do have Pikmin 3 Deluxe on Switch, and a mobile game akin to Pokemon Go, but no Pikmin 4. It looks like the next console is the earliest we can expect it at all at this point.
Poor Arlo…..
Worry no longer. WE HAVE WON!
@@pkshyguy Now all I have left to do is finally play Pikmin 3 Deluxe (which I wanted to be my first Pikmin game but I just haven’t been able to get around to yet) while we wait for the game to release! 🌺
2 years later and this video is still accurate
Not anymore
It’s 2022 and we still haven’t got pikmin 4
Last time I played Pikmin I was in elementary school. Now I'm in highschool and I'm still waiting for Pikmin 4. Pikmin 3 is what got me into gaming so it holds a special place in my heart. I have so many memories of when I played it. I remember I would always get lost because back then my sense of direction was garbage. I remember the yellow pikmin were my favorite because I thought they were the cutest with the big ears and no mouth. Sort if like how I liked waddle dees. And I remember that I would feel bad for losing even one pikmin because I loved them so much. Sometimes I would even cry if I lost too many. I would get so scared to fight a boss and would have to ask one of my brothers to do it for me. Eventually I moved onto other games because pikmin was too difficult for me and eventually I forgot about it. But I bet if I were to play it now I would do a lot better. But I can't play it because my wii u is broken beyond repair. So I want Pikmin 4, dammit!
Another Direct has come and gone?
Did I miss something?
He probably recorded that bit a while ago.
The indie one
@@travisreberto1295 that doesn't make any sense
13:38
Only pre-switch fans will remember this
yeah I felt fuzzies in my heart when that happened
Pikmin 1: 1.60 million sales
Pikmin 2: 1.12 million sales
Pikmin 3: 1.27 million sales
Pikmin 3 deluxe: 2.06 million
Nintendo: nah
Pikmin bloom: 2 million
Nintendo: ... maybe.
Love how this video is now 3+ years-old lmaooo but seriously, where tf is Pikmin 4?! The gap between Pikmin 3 and 4 is now longer than the wait between 2 and 3
"...like a cat, standing by its food dish, waiting for the heavenly crinkle of the food bag."
The writing is really good in this one.
Wait there was a Nintendo Direct? Stop confusing me Arlo!
I know!
There wasn't a direct!
What was he talking about?
@@RhythmGrizz im guessing he expected a direct to be happening soon when writing the script haha
@@firepork082 that would be a massive oversight
@@RhythmGrizz would it? One random line that much of an oversight just seems like he forgot to change it when uploading it lol
@@firepork082 it's kind of a big deal to a lot of people and could potentially invalidate this entire video when the direct DOES come.
He's supposed to be a Nintendo news authority, but he's talking about huge news releases that haven't even happened and predicating videos upon the content of the non-existent direct.
Here's to hope for the December/January Direct!
There wasn't one..
I know a way to fill this lightyear deep hole in our souls... Arlo should make a pikmin walkthrough🙃
it's here.
2 years after, still nothing
Pikmin 4 May have started development for the Wii U so when they say it started failing they put the game on the back burner and started to move assets. Hopefully they either are doing a really really good job upgrading the assets so it actually looks like a switch game and not an upscale Wii U game, or they just started development with the switch’s power in mind.
I mean, the power gap between Wii U and Switch isn't that big. (I think between Wii and Wii U was the last big one we'll get, sadly. It was always so much fun to see what kinda huge strides the graphics would make in the next system.)
🐢❤
Even now, I would love to know the story behind Pikmin 4’s development. It feels like… something happened.
I just now thought about the fact that it is completely possible for them to be making Pikmin 4 a first person 3D game, which would explain part of why it is taking so long for it to be released.
Who’s watching in 2023 to remember how far we’ve come
or how long many fans have waited.
1 Year Later...
Nothing
imagine nintendo just suddenly announces a pikmin direct
A lot of people will be disappointed because it's not a normal direct. Plus AC and Metroid fans will attack it because they're impatient and want a direct for them.
@@nandernugget it really do be that way sometimes
Scoobert Doobert impatient? It's been almost two fucking years since Metroid Prime 4 has been announced and Nintendo didn't show any gameplay footage that appeals to their customers.
@@kazoorion7993 2 years?! Man that's a whole life time. I'm sorry. Anyway, in all seriousness, I'm mostly talking about AC fans. Metroid Prime 4 is definitely happening this year, or at least it'll have a reveal. My point was that, if Pikmin 4 was revealed before Prime 4, Metroid fans will be upset.
@@Nieveria jesus fucking chris.
I'm Looking for NES Tetris and Duck Hunt on Nintendo Switch Online, Metroid Prime 4 still not yet announce. On January Direct is taking so long and The Download 2019 Direct not yet announce too. Be Patient.
How would duck hunt even work on switch?
Arlo: "We could get the game in 2019 or 2020"
Me in 2021: 👁👄👁
I never had a wii u so I've been waiting 15 years for my next dose of pikmin.
I’ve never played a pikmin game before, but I’d like to try the series out at some point. Either way, I hope for your sake Arlo pikmin 4 comes out sooner rather than later
I recommend Pikmin 3.
