Topic: Pikmin 4

So there's a promotion right now that gives extra reward coins for purchasing this game,
does anyone know if you get those extra coins if you use a voucher to buy the game?

@Uncle_Franklin I am not sure, but I would guess not, since the points are given to you when the vouchers are purchased instead of the games themselves.

I still recommend getting this game though, it's phenomenal.

I have a question about something in the game, however it may have spoilers so beware:

Quick question.
Can I play Pikmin 4 indefinitely after I finished the storyline?
Play indefinitely like I played Harvest Moon which I can continue the daily activities endlessly until I get bored.

Oh, also.
As a newbie in Pikmin franchise and wanting easy gameplay, are Pikmin 1 + 2 on Switch easy enough and can be played indefinitely after post game?

Would've loved to see a snow area in Pikmin 4. I was hoping for some winter themed area as DLC, but sadly we never got any DLC content. This picture Nintendo recently put on their Japan website looks awesome, I would've really enjoyed exploring an area like this in game!

@PikminMarioKirby
That's such a cool picture!

Pikmin 4 was such a lovely experience. My first Pikmin game was 3, and I kind of hated it. This one, though, I loved it so much that I did pretty much everything. Such a well-crafted game!

@Anti-Matter Pikmin 1 has a 30 Day limit & Pikmin 2 has unlimited days. So in simple terms, based on my experience, both are fairly difficult. Mostly Pikmin 1 due the 30 day limit, but Pikmin 2 let's you play at your pace. That allows you spend time/days building up your Pikimin. Plus Pikmin 1 feels rather archaic in terms of game mechanics. pikmin 2 feels more stream-lined & sorta polished.

The hard part of Pikmin 2 comes mostly from the caves that you can explore. Challenging they may be but time doesn't pass when you're underground so you can plan out or...well...goof off (if you want).

I recommend watching playthroughs so you can get a better idea. Reason why I say this is because I'm describing all of this based on my experience. Also these two are based on the Wii ports rather than the Gamecube versions. Just a detail I thought I should mention.

@DanijoEX-the-Pierrot
So, are Pikmin games not the type of open ending games like The Sims / Harvest Moon when you can continue the games forever after reached the goal?
I heard Pikmin 4 have unlimited days so I can play indefinitely after finishing the storyline.

This game is getting a free update this November, with the following additions:

Photo mode
Decor Pikmin / compatibility with Pikmin Bloom
Easier and harder difficulty options

@ShieldHero
What is that mean with easier and harder difficulty?

Time for another play through. Pikmin 4 is a beast of a game

@Anti-Matter easier difficulty means easier and harder difficulty is harder.
I don’t know if your being serious.

@Anti-Matter,

The easier difficulty means that monsters won't attack you unless you attack them first and will have less health. The harder difficulty means that monster attack patterns will be more difficult, and they will probably have more health too.

Ive been waiting on pikmin 2 to hit a sale. What gives Nintendo?

"Pikmin 4 is listed as having a Switch 2 update on the eShop"

Any thoughts on this?
I'd be quite surprised if it was a free update to be honest, it seems locked and loaded for a Switch 2 Edition.
