Pikmin RPG (2026)

Pikmin 1 returns on Nintendo Switch, offering a refreshed version of the 2001 GameCube classic. While the visuals have been slightly improved and controls refined, this is still very much a product of its time. The game’s charm lies in its strategic yet accessible gameplay: commanding plant-like Pikmin to collect spaceship parts before time runs out. Despite minor frustrations like camera quirks and Pikmin getting stuck, the experience remains fun and addictive. If you’ve never played the original, this compact adventure is worth revisiting — even if it doesn’t reach the polish of newer entries or Metroid Prime Remastered.

Without a doubt, the games were ported to those who recently discovered the series and want to delve deeper into its origins. Of course, they'll always be excellent starting points, but I believe the purchase will be made for those who already have experience with the series. Of course, if you ignore everything I've mentioned so far and still buy the game, I believe you'll have one of the best experiences in the genre, and the tiny Pikmin fan community will undoubtedly welcome a new member with open arms!
