What I mean by this is that they will not make Pikmin 4 just yet. They have paused development to see the figures for Pikmin 3 Deluxe. So, Nintendo will not release Pikmin 4 just yet. It is also likely that development for Pikmin 4 has stopped with the release of Pikmin 3 Deluxe. It is likely that since the game is such a low priority for Nintendo, development often goes without supervision for Pikmin 4 and when it is complete, it does not meet Nintendo's quality standards and the development often has to be reset, leading to a major gap between major releases. When asked about it after Hey! Pikmin was released in 2017, he said that development was still progressing. Hey! Pikmin released in 2017 to barely any positive reviews and the game suffered the worst sale count in the entire franchise, making the series a low priority for Nintendo.Īs stated, Shigeru Miyamoto said that Pikmin 4 was close to completion in 2015. It would be nine years before Pikmin 3 released, and even then it would still sell poorly with 1.5 million units sold. Pikmin 1 only managed to sell 1.18 million units, and its successor sold even worse than the original game.

Unfortunately, behind the curtains, things were going for the worst. In under 4 years, the second game for the franchise was released, and things were looking promising on stage. When it originally started on the Gamecube, Nintendo was having high expectations for the franchise and they hoped that it would sell well. It is a Nintendo franchise that originally started on the Gamecube and has gotten 3 mainline titles, 1 spin-off, and a remaster. So you may or may not know about the Pikmin franchise. Let me tell you why Pikmin 4 and Super Mario Galaxy 3 are not coming out yet.
