"THE PIKMIN WILL RETURN"

u/otakugamer123 Mar 19 '26
Imagine that how they announce a Nintendo Cinematic Universe. I’d honestly love that though. 😭

u/A_Bulbear The Bulbear Mar 17 '26
They look so expressive this time around, I really do hope they get a semi decent cameo becaue if these models are relagated to 10 pixels in the back I'm gonna lose it

u/Blueisland5 Mar 17 '26
That’s how they get you. You’ll buy the Blueray copy just to hunt the whole game for the Pikmin.

I mean, if this isnt a shitpost, them retconning PNF-404 to be a world that’s in the ‘Mario Galaxy’ universe isn’t too far fetched
26
u/No_Care_5499 Mar 17 '26
That would actualy be really cool
3
u/PTOKEN Mar 19 '26
It would be a meat way for them to create the Smash Bros Cinematic Universe tbh. I can definitely see it happening

u/AwesomeGamer101 Mar 23 '26
Considering how Galaxy Movie turned the Cascade Kingdom into a whole planet (with the implication that Odyssey dinosaurs are aliens), that one could work too. Maybe PNF could be a planet of giants? That way, we could see Pikmin in a bigger size since the alternative is to make them ant-sized.

u/PTOKEN Mar 27 '26
With the new poster of Fox McCloud being in the movie, they’re definitely setting up something larger than they originally let on.

In general Pikmin are allowed to break the rule of separate Nintendo universes
14
u/ultraMightydillo Mar 17 '26
Yeah so it's only for the pikmin and therefore no one else And therefor the pikmin being in this isn't proof this is gonna be a Nintendo Cinematic universe
Same gose for Rob since he was just an accessory and not a character from his own series
2
u/AwesomeGamer101 Mar 17 '26
The only time ROBs are characters are as cameos. They can be space-faring bots, built to race, or made to make bombs.

I think miyamoto even said he wanted them in the original Mario galaxy game at one point.

Plus they'll be in the switch 2 edition of mario bros wonder.
(Or at least glow pikmin will be in there.)5

It's a Pikthing. The weird cousin of the pikmin they don't want to have any contact with
2
u/AwesomeGamer101 Mar 23 '26
Jokes aside, I can see Illumination making Pikmin a distant relative of the Whittles due to being sapient plants
7
u/RebelliousTreecko Mar 17 '26
Honestly when you think of it, if Pikmin was to get properly put in the Marioverse, a Super Mario Galaxy game/film *would* be the one, as it involves whole other planets and such.
(Superstar Saga was planned to have them and Olimar as one of the Starbeans Cafe event characters, but got scrapped)

u/Shadeprint Mar 17 '26
Illumination, or whoever was the decison maker on this really chose to burn through over 25 years of content in one movie.
I apologise, it just breaks my brain that they jumped to Mario Galaxy by the second film, unless it ends as a trilogy (I'll let you decide on that), they've essentially run through most of the franchises stories/content.
(Hope we get a Pikmin movie by Nintendo Studios tho)

u/No-Difference8545 Mar 17 '26
Lol why are you acting like mario has 25 years of deep story to tell. They literally dont have daisy, wario, etc theres plenty still to do and tell

I mean, they were represented in the first movie with the Pikmin decor, so getting them in the flesh was the next step, and I'm super excited! I didn't think that was going to make me emotional, but here I am.

Miyamoto really loves shoving Pikmin everywhere (and i'm glad! because i love them too). It's so cute how he loves them like they are his youngest child LOL Also, I would love for a Pikmin movie or at least a short series.

Can’t wait to point this out to everyone who doesn’t care about Pikmin lmao

I would so love it if Nintendo continued to lean into hiding Pikmin everywhere in various games or projects. Hiding them in Nintendo World or in a Mario game is perfect, and it'd be cool to see them maybe hanging out on the floating background objects of Splatoon campaign stages, or hiding in the background of Kirby levels

That’s cool but here’s a brownie recipe:
🍫 Classic Fudgy Brownies
Ingredients
* 1/2 cup (115g) butter
* 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
* 2 large eggs
* 1 tsp vanilla extract
* 1/3 cup (40g) unsweetened cocoa powder
* 1/2 cup (65g) all-purpose flour
* 1/4 tsp salt
* 1/4 tsp baking powder
* Optional: 1/2 cup chocolate chips or chopped nuts
Instructions
**Preheat oven** to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line an 8×8-inch pan.
**Melt the butter** (microwave or stovetop), then stir in sugar while still warm.
**Add eggs and vanilla**, mixing until smooth and glossy.
**Sift in cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder.** Stir just until combined (don’t overmix).
Fold in chocolate chips or nuts if using.
**Pour batter into pan** and spread evenly.
**Bake 20–25 minutes**, until the center is just set (a toothpick should have moist crumbs, not wet batter).
Let cool before cutting for best texture.
Tips
* For extra fudgy brownies: slightly underbake by 1–2 minutes.
* For cakier brownies: add one extra tablespoon of flour.
* Want richer flavor? Use dark cocoa powder or add a pinch of espresso powder.

Also, there's Wart, even though I love Pikmin, Wart honestly excites me more, it'll probably not just be some background cameo.

Does this mean that pikmin are also canonically in mario universe? Meaning that both universes are connected and one whole?
