#Pikmin 4 Liveblogging

[shower-racoon]

alright, before I get started on Pikmin 4, I have 2-ish questions based off of what I remember from the demo:

do we know who the red-leafed leaf person is? 2a. if we don't know who they are, do we ever encounter Olimar? 2b. if we do know who they are, is Olimar safe from plantification?

Shoutouts to @polwigle for taking me through Pikmin 4 and teaching me things that would cause me great anxiety to attempt on my own.

So for some reason I suck at liveblogging my time with RPG and JRPG stuff but I'm playing Cassette Beasts and I've heard great things about it but it has still come across as a nice surprise for me.

I'm not sure if I'll be able to beat it before Pikmin 4 comes out but it's REALLY good.

I think I'm going to try liveblogging the Nintendo Direct. I've never actually liveblogged anything before, so this should be interesting.

I'd add what I think the Direct is going to include here, but the only real theory I have is something related to Tears of the Kingdom. Maybe a new trailer, maybe a date for a Zelda-specific direct, who knows. Other options... maybe Silksong? New trailers for the Mario movie? Pikmin 4 is a possibility, but I don't really care about that since I've never played a Pikmin game. Just have to wait and see, I guess.

Startin’ the new thread with dwarf spotty bulbear bulbmin! Bearmin? I dunno, I just hope they’re stronger! They need to be to be useful against these new enemies
