Is he related to the Berenstein Bears?
Uh oh. It looks likeCERNmay have fired again. We’re now in a timeline graced by the existence of Fiddlebert. Of course, you remember Fiddlebert fromPikmin, right? For those that don’t;Fiddlebert wassupposedly Pikmin 1’ssecond captain. He was “rushed” since he was just a smaller and green version of Olimar. He would sometimes randomly speak another language and was removed from the Wii and Switch ports of the game…at least, that’s what folks on thePikminsubredditwould have you believe.
who the fuck is Fiddlebert?byu/SombrarcoinPikmin
Pikminfans are currently debating the existence of the green character. Some claim they certainly remember him from the originalPikmin. But let’s be honest here. Fiddlebert is as real as Curious George’s tail, Oscar Meyer, and the Monopoly Man’s monocle. You know, as real as the cornucopia in the Fruit of the Loom logo.
Do you “remember” Fiddlebert?
The creation of Fiddlebert is what happens when a dedicated fan base gets together and wants to pass the time before a highly anticipated game release. We saw asimilar situation in theDiablo 4community. It’s honestly great! You have a large group of people all excited forPikmin 4and willing to take something silly and run with it. Why you might ask? Because it’s fun, it’s entertaining, and most importantly it’s morePikmin.
Look, I know the Mandela effect is a real thing. I mean at this point who can argue it? But I have to admit, I don’t remember Fiddlebert ever existing. Maybe I just didn’t playPikminas much as I remember, but surely I’d recognize this green Olimar, right?
Pikmin4releases on Nintendo Switch on July 21. I’m willing to bet Fiddlebert will not make an appearance.
