To be honest, Pikmin 4 already has multiple free DLC built in: Trial of the Sage Leaf and Olimar's Tale, both are separate experiences that could've been DLC but aren't. I think it's quite nice we just got a complete, traditional game.

"Oh my copium is ready" has got to be on the best ways to end a video ever.

When Arlo reacted to Pikmin 4 I was confused. Why is this so special? Now that I have played it as well as the other Pikmin games I can conclude that Arlo’s reaction is the same reaction I will have for the Pikmin 5 reveal

I fear it may be going the way of the Odyssey…

I genuinely think Olimar's Shipwreck Tale, as well as the Sage Leaf Trials were considered DLC at first, but they wanted the game to get reviewed as positively as possible, to grow the fanbase bigger than ever, so they threw in those modes for free.

don't worry, according to miyamoto, pikmin 5 is almost complete. we should see it in 2035.

Its on Miyamoto's "get around to it never" list on his hard drive.

Maybe the Pikmin DLC was the Pikmin we plucked upon the way

If they would even just add an option to disable the "Oh no, the poor pikmin!" messages that pop up literally every single time one pikmin dies, I would be ecstatic.

I personally used the Mario Odyssey logic of “probably working on the sequel for switch 2 instead.” Definitely glass half full. See ya in 10 years for Pikmin 5!

here in Japan there are still Pikmin 4 ads on the train even after a year, they’re really cute I love seeing them haha

OKAY SERIOUSLY THOUGH WHERE IS THE PIKMIN 4 REVIEW

Hi, Australian here. Sorry but I think we lost the DLC off the south coast of Australia, we have a tendency to do that :(

While I loved Pikmin 4 (Oatchi is a VERY good boy!), not every game needs DLC. Pikmin 4 already feels like a feature complete game. The worst thing you can say is the multiplayer feels like more of an afterthought than Pikmin 3, but the singleplayer is massive and Olimar's Shipwreck Tales would've been post-launch DLC in any other game.

I'm still waiting for them to bring creature respawns back to the overworld 😭

Remember when we used to hate the idea of dlcs and now we are basically begging for it?

Technically, Mario Odyssey’s DLC was Luigi’s Balloon World (and Labo VR). I know that ain’t much, but technically it’s something still.

Wait, were we expecting Pikmin 4 DLC? Did they ever say it was in the cards? I never really thought on it and assumed it was a case of Mario Party Superstars where we get what we get and that's that. Of course DLC would absolutely be nice but if they never hinted at any then I don't understand the expectation.

Okay seriously though WHERE IS THE PIKMIN 4 REVIEW ARLO?!?!

Pikmin 4 is still on my "games to buy" list that I haven't bought. To be honest finding a job in my town is nearly impossible. Even the people that live in my town have to find work in a different town. So buying new games especially $60 games is almost impossible for me right now.

Honestly Miyamoto talks about Pikmin so dearly and frequently, I almost forget he's the Mario guy. He's kinda the Pikmin guy now lol

LMAOOOO the ending gag was hilarious But yeah, I can easily see Pikmin 5 being worked on for the Switch successor as we speak. ... Hopefully.

Arlo has been waiting so long for Pikmin 4 that after getting and completing the game, he can’t handle the facf that the game has a proper end. Can’t blame him though, yet this may begin the first stage of grief, with Arlo denying the idea that Pikmin 4 not getting DLC.

Arlo's canon notification sound being 'Pikmin!' is perfect

You expected DLC? After getting every Pikmin game on Switch and Pikmin 4 having as much content as it does?

Arlo says *Pikmin 4 4K + Pikmin 5* is a Switch 2 launch title, you heard it here first.

If they're working on pikmin 5 for the switch 2 I'd be happy to sacrifice pikmin 4 dlc

Imagine they tweet out the announcement for pikmin 4 dlc an hour after this goes up.

My biggest fear for this topic is that the new console will not be backwards compatible and will require you to buy Pikmin 4 again but with all that juicy new content (which sadly i would pay for anyway) and they are just saving DLC/more content to drop with a "rerelease"

They're waiting on your review.

"Flying Flatterchuck" really genuinely made me think a different four letter word starting with F- was about to cone out of the family friendly Arlo's mouth. 😂 Man's passionate about Pikmin so it almost wouldn't surprise me.

I think expecting DLC for a game just because it's a good game is a bad mental trap to fall into. Just like the one where you expect a sequel to a good game immediately like you have been with Odyssey 2.

At 6:32 there's a single frame with a wall of text talking about a great beast. Weird. Is Arlo doing an ARG?

I really thought Arlo was about to drop an “F bomb” in the beginning there for a second.

"Top down Zelda for the first time in a CENTURY" becomes better when you realize (REDACTED) actually DID come out last century

A level editor would hold us off for years, and also be the best thing ever. Even better than Merio maker (which tbh is pretty eh)

Dont encourage companies to make dlc's for beloved franchises. They will most certainly ruin them with it.

honestly even if we never get dlc, i'd be happy with an update that just adds a hard mode and a toggle to the accessibility features

I will die on the hill that the hats and outfits from Pikmin bloom should have been available. That way you can name and recognize each Pikmin in a crowd and get entirely too attached to them

This is the only breaking news I need Arlo to cover today

I had an idea for a dlc. Remember the president? I was thinking maybe he would go to PNF-404 on his own to find treasure to repay another debt. Maybe he could stumble upon new pikmin types (like 2 or even 3). Maybe he explores 2 new areas showing the strengths and weaknesses of the new pikmin types. He could also discover new neverbefore seen treasures. This is an idea I've been thinking about for a while and wanted to share it. Maybe the title of the dlc could be called: The Presidents voyage.

a lot of people in these comments seem to think a game getting DLC means it's 'incomplete' idk where that's coming from plenty of "finished" games get DLC because why not get extra?

My uncle works for Nintendo and he told me that they will not release it until Arlo reviews the main game.

8:34 a level editor is something I had hoped for forever in pikmin, imagine the caves and levels that can be made, traps puzzles enemy placements… imagine if it was on the quality of forge in halo 3

Arlo has a point with the upgrades you can only get after the end of the game, imagine the amount of stuff you can do with being able to carry stuff as a Captain just in case you don't have enough pikmin

What if games can just come out with a lot of content and not need any dlc? Olimar’s Tale and the Sage Leaf basically feel like free DLC, would people like them more if they had to pay for them?

I need to start using flying flatterchuck as a euphemism.

If Switch Sports can get DLC 2 years later out of nowhere, I think Pikmin fans can cope a little longer

I personally think we’re going to get at least something for four, either a series of small updates or one or two big dlc‘s stuff, and then they’ll start working on the fifth game.

Hey, I'm still wondering where the FLIP the next Star Fox game is? Reminder to everyone that Miyamoto stated in an interview after Star Fox Zero came out that he "wants to put more energy into Star Fox and Pikmin". It so incredibly disappointing that Star Fox has just skipped the switch generation, a perfect time to really test Star Fox's status without BAD data getting in the way. I want to have that Arlo Moment, I want to be massively stunned and excited for something. The only thinks that have only done that are rumors of Star Fox Assault getting a remake or remaster and that might not happen.

Ive noticed that when it comes to paid DLC, Nintendo usually announces it ahead of the games release. Breathe of the Wild, Fire Emblem, Xenoblade Chronicles, Smash Ultimate, Splatoon 2 and 3. Hell, i think even Luigu mansions 3's multiplayer DLC was announced ahead of the games release. There's some exceptions but for the most part if they dont announce it before the games release, i dont expect anything coming.

Where is the Pikmin 2 long form review? We've been waiting

Dlc that turns off autolock

Nintendo: “Lol, what are you talking about? Pikmin 4’s already perfect, it doesn’t need additional content! …Why are you grabbing those pitchforks and torches…?”

Another possible scenario is they could be waiting for the next system to be officially revealed, that way they can not only announce DLC but also announce "deluxe" addition for the next console as a launch title or a launch window release, Switch owners can buy the DLC but it would come packaged with the next gen version

I just picked up this game for $35 from target. I’ve never actually dove deep into a pikman game before so I’m excited to check it out.

Can't wait to see what else you have up your sleeve!

I don't understand it, but at 6:32 there is a long piece of writing. I set the playback speed to .25 and it was a really interesting read haha

Fox McCloud: Does me or my team mean NOTHING to you anymore?! Why not us, Nintendo? Where is our comeback?

I love how even Miyamoto sees the potential that Mario can be surpassed.

Honestly just an update that allows overworld enemies to respawn... Why hasn't even THAT been done.

Maybe they’re waiting for switch 2 so they can release pikmin 4 deluxe with extra content. People would probably be annoyed but it seems like the kind of stunt Nintendo might pull.

“The first title staring Zelda herself!” I guess Arlo has forgotten Zelda: the Wand of Gamelon lol.

I actually didn't know Miyamoto had hoped that Pikmin would become bigger than Mario, that's news to me wow

They’re waiting for your big review first, silly!

I would kill for a Pikmin 3 styled mini story using the bootleg Alph, Brittany, and Charlie that you rescue

I demand my Bingo Battles to come back! And make monsters respawn!!!

"oh my copium is ready!" 😭😭 had me snorting bro lololol

I just really hope for Pikmin 5 on Switch 2. With all 4 games playable on Switch i don't really need more now.

They also may be planning a Pikmin 4 Deluxe for Switch 2. Especially if Pikmin 5 is a few years away. But my first thought was that we already got the DLC content built into the fame with the Olimar story and cave trials.

I checked my phone at the end of the video because I have the SAME TEXT TONE!! I love you Arlo

So here’s my theory: we’re not getting anything till Switch 2, where we get Pikmin 4 Deluxe. That’s where we’ll get online dandori battles, a proper challenge mode, and new game+, as well as full co-op, whether that’s local or WiFi I’m not gonna guess, but I have a shred of evidence. The Joy-Cons were treasures in the Newly Nostalgic collection. It’s kinda weird to be nostalgic for their current system, isn’t it? But if the switch 2 gets Pikmin 4 Deluxe, then it would make more sense. It’s newly nostalgic because the switch is finally in the past.

Honestly this is probably one of my favourite Arlo videos ever. That LEGO analogy was great and that copium joke at the end was honestly hilarious!

For me I’d just like to see a “Spicy” difficulty mode where the enemies are tougher and respond after a few days. Another thing they could add is a new game plus mode. There are some upgrades and onions that you can get very very late into the game to the point where they’re almost useless. Lastly just some new caves would be nice. Maybe add two-four per map.

Face it Arlo, it’s time to play Pikmin mods! I mod Pikmin 3. *a lot*

IMO Pik 4 launched with DLC included. Olimar's Journey and the Dandori Trials both feel like they _would've_ been sold to us for extra by any other games company, but Nintendo just included it in the base game for free, like the old days before DLC.

I’d actually be happy with just getting a bunch more Dandori challenges. I was honestly expecting for there to be more of them in the base game, and I feel like those wouldn’t be that crazy to make a bunch of.

I too have a couple flying flatterchucks that need answering.

Only 1 arlo in the raycon ad? Parallel universes have collapsed.

holy crap pikmin 4 is ALMOST A YEAR OLD!?

Consumers shouldn't hope for developers to withhold content until after you've made a purchase, I don't care how common season passes and such have become, the best case scenario is if development started post launch.

I'd love to see some snow levels DLC, Released around mid Nov. Make the red or rock Pikmin heat absorbent when walking across fire, and give them some sort of ice/snow melting ability.

Did anyone else think he was about to drop a massive F-bomb at 1:34

We already got a DLC, they added a loading bar! It alone added 5 hours of content, for free too!

What do you mean, Arlo? Pikmin 4 is chock full of Dandori Loving Creatures!

Pikmin 5 might be like TOTK. It was planned as DLC for the previous game but became its own game.

The only thing I can think as being dlc is a new game plus mode of sorts. The fact this game has so much content and doesn't have game-breaking bugs is amazing. I'd say take what you can get in this instance

They spent 10 years on this game, all the dlc that COULDVE been in this game is already in it imo

it had just occurred to me that pikmin 4 turns a year old in a week, yipee

There isn't going to be one. There never was 😢

The fact that we still never got two player story with Oatchi hurts my soul.

Don't worry, I've heard that the dlc is actually in development and very close to completion.

I think an update or DLC or the like I'd be super curious in would be a Pikmin randomizer mode. Especially with all the upgrades you can purchase and unlock in Pikmin 4, I think it'd be fun to be able to remix and relocate various abilities or Pikmin locations or the like, and see how much it changes up the gameplay progression.

On the subject of Star Allies, while I don't think anything has been confirmed I always felt like 90% of the post launch content was meant to be in the base game. It's no secret that the games felt kind of shallow when it came out and I believe that was for two reasons: First getting the friend AI to work properly and figuring out how to design the game so that none of them ran into any problems and second because they didn't want to miss the 25th anniversary. They were almost a year late with the actual release itself and all the content wasn't added until late 2018. They decided to release the game early to still be part of the celebration and settled on adding the other stuff later. Heroes in Another Dimension was specifically made in response to criticism yes, but the Dream Friends were most likely meant to be there from the start, given the rest of the games legacy celebrating nature. Forgotten Land was a complete game at launch so HAL probably didn't see a reason to give it DLC.

Pikmin is getting better treatment than Star Fox at this point ;_;

I feel like the Olimar campaign was dlc-esque for the game.

Dont worry, Arlo. It's basically almost done!

The last bit about "copium" had me laughing for a minute straight

I understand the want for more Pikmin 4, but I think there is also something nice about knowing all of the Pikmin 4 content is on the cartridge in such a well made and finished state.
