Talk:S.S. Drake

Louie
In the picture that shows the world map, there is louie floating there. Could we get a better picture without Louie? Spoiler reasons Ford4385 (talk) 07:55, 9 March 2015 (EDT)

Drake equation
So I recently read about this mathematical formulation that calculates the chances of there being intelligent life that we could contact out there. It's called the Drake equation, and when I read that part, my brain immediately went "PIKMIN!". Do you think the name of the Drake could be a reference to this equation? I mean, the Koppaites are probably considered intelligent life by our standards, even if they can't exactly contact us. 50.45.184.98 21:44, April 14, 2022 (EDT)


 * It is fitting considering the Koppaites found Pikmin, which, despite their foolishness, could be considered intelligent lifeforms.

Drake and Character D
This article's naming section dedicates a lot of words to the idea that the name "Drake" may have been originally meant for Character D, but is there any evidence for it? Sure, it starts with the letter D, but that's just kinda how this game's characters are named: Alph, Brittany, Charlie, Drake, Elizabeth. 2 B (talk) 15:55, September 9, 2023 (EDT)


 * To my knowledge it's pure speculation with nothing substantial to back it up. -Gulliblepikmin 17:54, September 15, 2023 (EDT)


 * Correct. It'd probably be worth rewording the section to place less emphasis on this and say more directly that it's speculation. &mdash; Soprano(talk) 18:07, September 15, 2023 (EDT)
