Episode 419: Pikmin
Added 2021-11-22 14:00:01 +0000 UTCOur string of 20th anniversary extravaganzas finally comes to an end this week as we offer a little love to the GameCube, too. In celebration of the best launch-window release for GameCube, we look back at the charming, inventive, and long-overdue-for-that-sequel-Miyamoto-keeps-promising Pikmin series.
Description:
Henry Gilbert, Bryan Auer, and Wesley Fenlon heed the call of Jeremy Parish's whistle and race to gather as much information about Nintendo's Pikmin franchise as possible, then return it to the Onion before sunset. Edits: Greg Leahy; artwork: Shaan Khan.

Belatedly listening, but just have to say that, my goodness, that art is so nice! Can imagine that hanging on my wall 😍

2021-11-24 09:37:58 +0000 UTCNever played these games, but now I'd really like to. Great stuff!
2021-11-23 14:03:05 +0000 UTCI don't know why a new Retronauts fills me with such joy every Monday, but it does.
