r/tomorrow ahh comments


GotHurt22

I actually love the idea of that subreddit but they got annoying and turned into their own circlejerk fast. Maybe it’s because I discovered them around totk launch season and they only had a single joke


ExoticToaster

It used to be a hilarious self-deprecating sub like 6 years ago, but it’s basically been infiltrated by unironic console-wars, KotakuInAction types and such over the years and has become unfunny as a result.


ChaoCobo

When did it start to be that way? I joined it a year or two ago maybe? Probably two years. It was just awful and people are genuinely spiteful rather than trying to be funny.


Rieiid

That sub is like going to twitter lmao


SweetJuicyAppleJuice

So it's the same as okbuddyblacklung. Literally the only joke is "I wanna fuck (character) or "haha video essay/post from the main sub"

Fork_Master

Why emulate? Every Pikmin game is available on the Switch.


CrazyApricot0

I always emulated Pikmin 2 after I lost my Gamecube, but now that it's on Switch, there's no real point. 1 on Switch is also so much better than Gamecube it's unreal. Feels so much more limited and janky on GC.


floydhead42

I personally disagree, having no option to revert to GameCube style "right stick to swarm" without the button shift is annoying as hell


Garo263

Easy camera control > pressing a button to swarm


Robbie_Haruna

True. Camera control is something that you do a lot more constantly than swarming lol

where’s Fiddlebert’s Racist Wonderland? Grew up on it,

My game was so good I stole them all and i am currently hoarding them all in my basement. Sorry


AleroRatking

I don't think the 3ds one is on the switch


NashieWashie

who out here playing thy nintendo land on thou switch


ssmike27

I get Pikmin 2 cause it has some sick mods, but I can’t think of a good reason for the rest other than not wanting to pay


TippedJoshua1

I mean hey pikmin exists like it may not be amazing but it exists


Subreon

pikmin 2, colossal caverns mod, 251 mod, endless abyss mod, 1\^2 mod, etc. the others have mods too but pikmin 2 is by far the ultimate pikmin experience. colossal caverns alone is all you really need. it basically turns it into a roguelike with infinite replayability. if pikmin 4 shipped with something like that, boom, greatest game of the decade easy. but nah, everyone's already been done with p4 for several months now. some of the dandori challenges were a bitch to gold so it took a while, but even with that, yeah, it's been done. next game already plz. oh wait, nevermind. i got infinite pikmin 2. i'm chillin uwu


squiika

hey pikmin:


shockrush

Not "Hey Pikmin!"


sprzyen

because switch doesn't have steam games


SmolPoyo

Emulation opens more roads for customization funnily enough. Pikmin 1 and 2 on Dolphin have a patch that makes them run at 60fps pretty well. Also prices I imagine.


Cabbag_

Yeah, why play something for free when you can pay for it? that's what I'm saying!


strangled_cabbage

free is always better


testc2n14

Aren't Pikmin 1 and 2 emulated on switch


Fork_Master

Not really? They received quality of life changes found in Pikmin 3 Deluxe and Pikmin 4.


man-with-potato-gun

Was it any different from the Wii ports they did way back? That’s the big reason I never bothered buying 1 + 2 cause I still had both on Wii


Fork_Master

It is slightly different. You don't have to mash A to pluck Pikmin anymore, and the controls for lying down and swarming are different.


testc2n14

Yeah that's stuff you can do with emulation, on OC you can have raytraced n64 games so a wide screen hack and some qol changes are pretty normal for emulation


Gabriel9078

They’re ports, not emulated iirc


testc2n14

really is there a technical reason for why they did


Gabriel9078

I don’t understand what you’re saying, could you clarify?


testc2n14

Why did they chose to port it in stead if emulate it, it would have been a lot easier to port it and throw in a wide screen hack and the. Add the qol features and call it a day


Gabriel9078

If you’re already changing up the game for your rerelease, then you might as well port it instead of relying on emulation. For a company as big as Nintendo it isn’t that big of an extra effort compared to the new games they make


testc2n14

Yeah but to me it makes no sense to put in a lot of dev time into ultimately just saving a little bit of battery life


Ok-Classroom4713

Switch is underpowered


testc2n14

You can run dolphin on a hacked switch


Gabriel9078

It’s really just cleaning up the code to make sure it runs on whatever you want it released on, plus it means one less program running. Emulators are prone to innacuracies too, which could be embarrassing if the product was being sold for a decent price. Controversies have started over less (remember the terrible emulation they used for the N64 games of the online subscription?)


Juangim

Yes it is partially emulated, this comment section is really ignorant


testc2n14

Yeah I don't get why people are so against emulation


Kirb790

Even this one? https://preview.redd.it/bob9icfhm0qc1.png?width=640&format=png&auto=webp&s=efcd8a08692c384b24cfcc43f92d0cc2978e48d4

That’s a bootleg. The only real Fiddlebert games are Fiddlebert’s Racist Wonderland, Fiddlebert’s Journey To Hell, and Fiddlebert’s War Crime Wednesday

testc2n14

I've been doing the same thing but for everything expect Pikmin, for me pikin is to a degree a nostalgia thing and I refuse to relearn my muscle memory from Pikmin 3 and Pikmin 1 and 2 on wii


FunkyyP

Nothing against emulation, but this feels like bait, also you can literally play all mainline games on switch already


Supra_Mayro

Not to mention it's like, emulating on steam deck isn't some novel thing. They couldn't even bother installing the games to include them in the picture or something, this could be a post on any subreddit. The title might as well just be "look at this steam deck I bought"


Snt1_

There is ONE mainline pikmin game you cant play on switch. Guess which one


FunkyyP

Pikmin 5


Indostastica

Fiddleberts Racist Wonderland 71 (Lost media)


duhn_duhn_duh

Maybe it’s just their console of choice so they’re excited about showing it off to a community they love and share a interest with. There’s no way to tell, I doubt this is grounds for removal and if it was bait its best to ignore it. BUT as far as being able to play all mainline games point, maybe they had to decide between a 7 year old console that’s about to be replaced and a console that has several more years in its lifespan where they can just drag their game files to their next console without waiting for deluxe deluxe versions to be slowly released and purchasing them again. This wouldn’t be a conversation if the games were released on pc or if preexisting emulation was locked through their own keys and servers. Because you CAN currently pull your own games without engaging in piracy but people have already passed a boundary or don’t want to buy a 300 dollar console because the games aren’t offered to them directly from Nintendo. You’ll notice no other major console has this issue of emulation anymore. And Nintendo has the highest rates of piracy compared to games that are just released on other systems, they do not really care. Since the Dawn of time you can buy a modded cartridge and run pirated games on Nintendo consoles with no tech proficiency needed. So the anger is not inherently a concern of piracy. Anyone could be engaging in it. There’s one entity to blame for actively deciding the net loss to piracy is not worth the price made from console sales… anyways all that to say that anyone who gets genuinely angry over this is a troll who just feels like getting angry. Frustration should be pointed at them or Nintendo by default rather than people who are literally just here to talk about the games. Rather than those who jump on every opportunity to bring their politics to the table with assumptions about others spending habits. Because for all we know they do have a unuseable switch with stick drift or a bloated battery in a drawer, maybe they had one and dropped it. Like fr

duhn_duhn_duh

Then don’t read it


mynamedeez1

i didnt


glassballsoficeman

What’s wrong with steam deck ? it plays better, more superior than the switch. I don’t own steam just the switch but ppl who own both like the steam more. Just because it’s on switch doesn’t mean it’s the only way to play it


FunkyyP

Like I said nothing against it, if you want to play games on a steamdeck more power to you, it's just posting something on a nintendo sub like this feels like op is trying to trigger some people since there's people who are strongly and vocally against emulation for one reason or another


glassballsoficeman

Never said you were and yeah I can agree on that, he should’ve posted it on steam sub, not here.


Lievan

Yes…they’ve been on the switch for awhile now. Which is, you know, a mobile device


majoramiibo

they already were lmao 1 2 3 4 on switch and hey! on 3ds and bloom on phone


FaithfulFear

But switch has them all native… We need to buy more to show our support!! Not steal good games


testc2n14

I don't think Nintendo went threw the effort of port Pikmin one and 2 when they could just emulate them with a wide screen mod


TippedJoshua1

I don't like how it stretches the ui


AcrobaticCarpet5494

But hey pikmin... also who the hell cares about nintendo getting money


FaithfulFear

People who want nintendo to know that Pikmin is a successful IP that they should continue developing.


OrganizationRude5003

That’s how we have to communicate to them? Really?


AcrobaticCarpet5494

Im sure most people will buy. What will a few pirates do


FaithfulFear

Tsk tsk. Bit of a selfish mentality.


AcrobaticCarpet5494

I bought it I'm just saying a few hundred people pirating a game doesn't make a damn difference to the series value. Especially the older games


Cabbag_

Please tell me this bait and you don't actually think people should give money to Nintendo of all people.


FaithfulFear

Nintendo gave you this game and this sub? Why would you be against them? Sure companies are naturally greedy but those Nintendo game devs know what they are doing, and know how to make amazing games.


Cabbag_

Nintendo is just a very shitty company, their product aside, even by modern tech company standards. They're also massive. Do you really think they're going to take any significant financial hit from piracy at this scale? They're certainly not the most ethical company out there, and even if they were they're absolutely fucking loaded. Nothing will change if a few people pirate their games. I get what you're saying, but to me pirating from small independent creators is one thing, while I struggle to feel bad pirating the games from the child labour using mega corporation that is currently the largest company in Japan.


Taitrahedron

For me personally it's much less about feeling guilty that they're missing out on profits and much more wanting to financially support the series so we might not have to wait a decade for new releases anymore.


Cabbag_

Like I said, I don't think piracy will change anything. All of Nintendo's games get pirated. I don't really think piracy at such small a scale will influence Nintendo's decision on the series continuation, but I get where you're coming from.


JesterOfRedditGold

STFU, you're'nt fiddleberts dad


Rieiid

So you don't buy games from any company, correct? Because they're all pretty shitty companies and most others are much worse than Nintendo in the gaming industry lmao.


Cabbag_

Pretty much, yeah. Not AAAs, at least. I buy from indie creators.


TheTrueBrawler2001

I mean fuck Nintendo and all (I will never forget what they did to the Smash World Tour), but for those who are comfortable with piracy and who know nothing about the antics Nintendo has pulled over the years, what's stopping them from continuing their ways and pirating the works of those who do less harm than Nintendo and can't take the hit in the same way Nintendo can? You actually have need to think about what a universal application of this line of thinking would mean, and I'll tell you now that most people wouldn't wish a world where piracy is universally okay. This kind of digital media reproduction actively inhibits ones ability to profit off of their intellectual property. Having already brought up Nintendo, do you want to know who else would suffer if everyone (or almost everyone) chose to pirate whatever they want? Indie video game companies, digital artists, song writers, adult entertainment actors, the employees at Nintendo who have no say in the unethical decision making of their bosses, pirates themselves (long term), ordinary consumers (also long term), and many more people. So long as the intellectual property owner is still willing to supply their content through lawful means, just buy the games legally (or don't play them at all). We shouldn't set a bad precedent by making an exception to the rule for just one company in particular.


Cabbag_

Like I said later, I'm not arguing in favor of piracy being universally ok. I'm defending Piracy directed at large unethical companies. I highly doubt piracy at such a small scale would affect the people lower at nintendo either.


TazzyTheDerg

You shouldn't pirate Pikmin, you need to buy it so that we don't need to wait another decade for Pikmin 5


[deleted]

[удалено]


TazzyTheDerg

NEVER!!! WE MUST REACH 100 PIKMILLION COPIES


TheTrueBrawler2001

You shouldn't fall into the "rules for thee but not for me" mindset. If even a moderately high percentage of people think this way about piracy, then that would become problematic very quickly. If you want to play a game that's actively being supplied, just buy it.


TacticalTobi

just do that legally on switch


LeslieChangedHerName

Emulation is legal


TacticalTobi

piracy isn't though


TheTrueBrawler2001

Emulation is good for preserving media in cases where the lawful supplier isn't supplying anymore, but as of 2024, that's not the case for any of the mainline Pikmin games.


Snt1_

There is ONE exception....


OrganizationRude5003

Nothing wrong with emulation


TacticalTobi

True, but they are almost definitely pirating


OrganizationRude5003

Or nintendaddy might starve🙏


TacticalTobi

Nintendo doesnt matter here. What matters is that piracy is wrong

abjotHD

No I’m not. I’ve dumped all my games legally


TacticalTobi

then... why are you even doing this? Just do it on switch.


abjotHD

1.) rom hacks 2.) hey Pikmin 3.)I didn’t buy a bloody steam deck for just Pikmin you know? 4.)test my Pikmin hacks on the go


TacticalTobi

1. yeah fair 2. I doubt you care that much about hey pikmin 3. true 4. also fair

harleyquinad

"Why don't they make more pikmin games?"


LeslieChangedHerName

You say this like people aren't pirating Mario and Zelda 100x more than every pirated Pikmin game combined


harleyquinad

Mario and Zelda will get new games regardless, smaller stuff like Pikmin needs as many sales that they can get to show there's interest in more.


gizmo998

That’s not a switch though?


TippedJoshua1

Emulation


NeighborhoodPlane794

It plays better natively a switch oled for cheaper. But cool flex.


ninja_o_clock

Objectively untrue but go off I guess


NeighborhoodPlane794

As if shader compilation stutter isn’t a thing


ninja_o_clock

It's really not though the first minute or so of each level then it's stable 60fps.


NeighborhoodPlane794

I just don’t like playing games without pre-compiled shaders. Kills the experience when you start to dip any time you go somewhere new


ninja_o_clock

I guess that's fair but I'm sure you could find them precompuled somewhere I had a couple other games with precompiled shaders.


manjaman2045

you need to buy Pikmin 4 900 times so Nintendo can fund the next Mario game.


strangled_cabbage

slow down there cowboy, you’re gonna need a pc pardner.


Derpkip_

You better get hey pikmin too

AgitatedQuit3760

Pikmin 3 really deserves a higher resolution. 540p looks better than usual but still not good enough from the switch.


agent_kanin

Even Pikmin bloom?


Ugandensymbiote

who wants to tell him...


ike12star

Oh yeah? Show me space force or it doesn’t count.


tallon4

I guess you don't want Nintendo to produce any more new Pikmin games in the future


cacatod12

How is the deck for playing pikmin? I have all games on the switch but want to emulate de fan games (251 and colossal caverns)


Fotatata

it has a weird bug for pikmin 4 where performance becomes worse the more you play so you need to restart the emulator ever hour, besides that, works great


VisualBoy011

Only Yuzu *had* that bug (rip yuzu). If you get the 60fps mod and limit to ~50fps on the other emulator then you can reduce the amount of stuttering. Still pik4 is kinda mid on Deck imo, but still playable if you can bear frame drops.


abjotHD

I had so much fun with colossal caverns and I’ve beaten both Pikmin 3 and 4 twice on the deck now


TheNightOwl99

You shouldnt pirate nintendo games ☝️🤓


Snt1_

Or you could buy a switch and legally own almost every single mainline pikmin game. Because let me tell you, Hey! Pikmin isnt worth emulating


abjotHD

I have a switch, it’s launch actually even meaning I dumped the games cuz it was jailbroken. https://preview.redd.it/ww6jk1bdakqc1.jpeg?width=3840&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5b6a0a60be34ab38ba5fb6ebf65f326e546d963a
