So what's the gameplay like? Is it sort of pikmin-ish?

Does seem Pikmin-ish but I do like that they're bringing something new to the table.

No, it's nothing like Pikimin. It's an action game.

From everything I've heard it's a straight action game except instead of a single character you control a mob that turns into swords and giant fists and pudding

God, it looks and sounds exactly like a cheesy Saturday Morning Cartoon, but absolutely insane

No. Way more Viewtiful Joe than Pikmin. Viewitful Joe with a focus on more open environments than the obstacle course approach Viewtiful Joe took.

It's an action game. Attacking, dodging, you change weapons by drawing on the screen or using the right analog stick to, say, make a gun shape (up -> right).

Dodging felt a lot like Bayonetta to me since it allowed you to cancel attacks and continue the combo after you dodged.

Oh god, this is totally the spiritual sequel to Viewtiful Joe. Fucking perfect.

Between this and Bayo 2, Platinum are giving me the only reasons for picking up a WiiU in the future.

This is as close to Viewtiful Joe 3 we'll ever get. =)

Played it at Eurogamer and am amazed by the charm and style the game pulls off, all whilst having solid gameplay and mechanics.

These kind of threads need a Platinum game or Kamiya name-drop to get some attention.
