Speaking in a recent interview, Mr. Miyamoto suggested that the series has untapped potential and that an animated Pikmin movie and show could make some big waves with the younger crowd and would also appeal to fun natured adults as well. The last mainline Pikmin game was Pikmin 3 which is available on the Nintendo Switch at retail and on the Nintendo eShop. "I think Pikmin has a lot of potential to be used in many different occasions. When you're looking at small kids, they have a certain appeal for things that are cute and when they grow older, maybe in their twenties, they start to lose appeal for that. But I think Pikmin has this unique ability to have appeal across a broad range in that it's still appealing for both younger audiences and older audiences and in Japan. And so I'm hoping that we can expand that globally. So whether it's some kind of a movie or show, things like that would be really fun" Comment
