Hey there, I'm Blaze. You may know me from places like Deviantart or Tumblr. I'm a contributor to the wiki, currently I've been transcribing treasure catalog notes for Pikmin 4. While I became a Pikmin fan sort-of recently, these silly little plant dudes have a special place in my heart (and my brain). I was born in 2003 (I'm an adult, over 18) and I live in the United States (though I hope to one day move to Canada).
For anyone curious my favorite types of Pikmin are currently Winged Pikmin and Blue Pikmin.
My Pikmin Experience
When I was younger, I barely knew anything about Pikmin. I would see it every now and again around the internet , but before ever getting into the games, I just knew Olimar and the Pikmin as "those guys from Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Even as I got older I didn't care much for the Pikmin games since they were time management games, and time management is not one of my strong suits and I was more focused on platformers and RPGs instead of RTS games.
That was until my dad got Pikmin 3 Deluxe for the Nintendo Switch, well more accurately my little half-brother and my dad picked it out while they were getting me a new copy of the Link's Awakening remake (My brother lost the old cartridge, and it got chewed on by a dog we were dogsitting.). So I was like "eh, why not, I'll play it." cause hey, I'm not one to skimp out on a game I didn't pay for or asked dad to get. And just like that, I was hooked. Though I did lose interest once I 100%ed the game (other than the badges, but I didn't feel like scouring for the secret murals and doing Bingo Battles ,just to get achievements) and thus had nothing else to do.
A couple years pass, and Pikmin 4 was announced in the Nintendo Direct, I was ecstatic, so excited to play a new Pikmin game after only having Pikmin 3 Deluxe. I would eventually get it a week after it came out, and then I became hooked once again. So much so that I did a second playthrough during an internet outage. Since that, I can now safely say that I am indeed a big Pikmin fan.
I also plan to get Pikmin 1 (Nintendo Switch) and Pikmin 2 (Nintendo Switch) soon, probably in October, as I also want to get the Pokemon Scarlet and VIolet DLC this month and the Super Mario RPG Remake in November.
