I assume the story might have to do with why Olimar hasn't been seen yet. All we know is he will appear in the game but we haven't seen him yet.

Something like the playable characters going to find him and they have to find him quickly or his life support system will begin to fail. Something simple like that.

That's not very good either, that's almost the same story to Pikmin 1 but just slightly edited.

Let's just say this, the concequence for not doing "the task" within the time limit better not result to death or an apocalypse. Unless...

Instead of making a story about what will happen to the captain, how about make a story about what may happen to "the pikmin". Since they are so vulnerable, helpless and cute it will make since to have to save "the pikmin" just for those reasons alone.

Pikmin are a lot more independent, especially as the games progress. I mean, at the end of Pikmin, they are attacking the Bulborb and taking it down. When you land in Pikmin 2, you see the Red Pikmin attacking an mini-bulborb, and the Blue Pikmin are attacking the Wollywog tadpole. It's not like they are really that vulnerable. Pikmin are basically representations of ants, and even though Ants are so vunerable, they are constantly known to take down very big targets in large numbers.

Yeah, but if Miyamoto came up with story about an apocalypse or threat that has been put on the Pikmin and the have to help them. That would be a very good story.
 
So, I think this story might follow the bad ending of Pikmin 1 or something. You know, where Olimar turns into a Pikmin?

I think that'd be pretty cool.

That would be unoriginal and reused. Plus, if he is going to be turned into a Pikmin as the bad ending, the fact of him saying that he is going to die is pretty pointless.

Apparently you think all our speculations are unoriginal and reused, when they are not.

I for one think that it would be cool, but I doubt it will happen.
 
I dunno. its a neat idea. All I really want is for Nintendo to give us a solid release date.

A bad ending for Olimar turning into a Pikmin (again) or anything similar to that is unoriginal. Nobody wants to see the same "bad" ending for a Pikmin game. What I mean is that the story and ending should not be similar to Pikmin 1 or 2.

I don't know where you got your information that nobody wants to see the bad ending. It just seems like your assuming your opinion on it is what everybody else thinks.
