Looking at the art for Pikmin 3, I think a stop motion/claymation Pikmin short would be incredibly awesome.
How is this being used as a big positive? If it were, they'd have announced it as something big and huge, not left the announcement of it to the back of the box
looks like they're treating it like a standard, no big deal feature as well.
It's not used as a big positive, it's just an indication.

not talking about nintendo, about the fact this thread was even made over such a trivial standardised feature, says a lot about how far behind nintendo is
I made this thread to inform people of a feature of a game that wasn't really known about prior to today, as many threads based on news of upcoming games do.
It made me think about using the NPC and real Pimkin toys.
Dude, what's going on with your reading? It's just a news, an information, there's no CAPS in the thread title, no "MEGATON" or other hype meme.
I bet you prefer the negative Nintendo thread and think all of them should be highlighted with caps everywhere and DOOMED tags.

got to earn that tag. EVERY day
Saying that it's sad that such a standard feature is big news for a Nintendo game isn't thread bashing. In 10 years we will see the same when Nintendo finally brings online multiplayer to games like Pikmin.
What makes you assume it is a big news, again?
The creation of a thread with this thread title?
Every piece of news (big or small) about games is thread worthy according to the moderators of this forum, as far as I know.
Nobody disputed this. On other platforms this just wouldn't be considered news. Just as you don't see a thread titled "Call of Duty going to use both analog sticks". That's the point others also made in this thread, nobody is attacking the person creating this thread.

What would it be if it wasn't implemented? Sadder?
Nobody else in this thread is acting like it is "big news". I don't really understand why you felt the need to come into the thread and derail it over an issue you yourself have made.

Shame about White and Purple Pikmin, but the latter are pretty much superseded by Rock Pikmin now.
Did you know you can re-sell your games on the "true" next-gen platforms? Mindblowing.

Hahaha!!!
Well played, sir...well played!
Regarding the 1080p/720p, do u think it is time to move to a 1080p tv?
My current Panasonic Plasma reaches up tp 720p and i was wondering which of the following WiiU games will support 1080p.
If it wasn't news, then why the thread title? And for a Nintendo title it is pretty good news as previous titles such as Wii Sports Resort didn't offer such a feature despite being destined for that.
Don't care too much about those platforms as their lineups look to be more of the same FPS and action adventure titles. Have a PC for that if I felt the need to play them.

So you do recognize that the news are indeed good and yet you still bring on the same "agenda"..
Imho, there have been many other topics with even lower caliber news..
There flagship racing title is fully online with a robust community at 60 fps on a Handheld. These jokes are old and not really accurate anymore.

That's referencing a very specific issue with the PS3 though (namely that the triggers are utter garbage and there are far too many games that use them for aiming/shooting and don't let you redefine the controls).
The whole reason for this thread's creation is that in 2013, online leaderboard functionality is still a noteworthy feature for a Nintendo game. It might not be "big news" any more, and that's a testament to how far they've come, but the fact that it is still news and not a standard feature shows how far they still have to go.

Look for me on the local news, I'll be the guy arrested for trying to burn down a Nintendo exec's house.
I dunno, I think managing a full year and possibly a half on the market with a 2012 console and multiple first party games releases, none with online gameplay, makes comments like that still relevant. Releasing 2 online games a generation isn't exactly something to stick on the merit wall.
But I guess reaching feature parity with all XBLA games released since 2006 is a start.

Are all Japanese back covers this informative?
Neat that it shows the native resolution. Are there any Wii U games that do 1080p native? Seems like pretty much a 720p native/ 1080p upscale kind of system.

I am not saying that that thread is not relevant. But it is a similar situation with this one, a manufacturer specific feature (or rather non-issue) being confirmed. In 2013 you should be able to redefine the controls in any game, but yet it doesn't happen. Each of these threads is relevant for the ones that want the game/the console and commenting on something you have no interest it is trolling.
Or to put this different: This thread is referencing a very specific issue with Pikmin 3 game, the fact that people kept on asking in the past threads about online leaderboards.

I know it's off topic, but are there rules in your religion regarding videogames, or is the timing just coincidence? I'm asking because most religions are rather old to have rules regarding videogames (And Ramadan is muslim, isn't it? So old ^^).

So you think saying that every game should allow you to redefine its controls in that Battlefield 4 thread is just trolling? Seems pretty relevant to me...
Who are these people? Seriously.

This is going to be my first Pikmin game. Can't wait!
All those people complaining int he BF4 thread were really interested by the game. You're not interested by Pikmin 3, I guess?

That doesn't make sense. However, most good games have all-time, monthly and weekly leaderboards.
I am saying that anyone who would go into that thread saying something like "the fact this thread was even made over such a trivial standardised feature, says a lot about how far behind PS4/BF4 is" or "I guess it takes sometime to reach parity with games from 1980's" would be trolling. See the nuance ?

Me? I'm interested in how it turns out, but I wouldn't say I'm particularly hyped for it. I've played both the previous Pikmin games so the concept does appeal to me, it's just this game seems to be a really safe sequel; all they've really shown is more Pikmin types and an extra controllable character. I guess I was expecting something a bit more than that with how long this game has been in development.
So am I qualified to post in this thread, or do I need to be more excited about the game?
So you're okay with the sentiment, but you'd want it phrased in a way that doesn't offend you as a fan of Battlefield 4? I think I get it, but it seems overly-sensitive to me.
Playing the game. It's just lovely.
Talking about 'irrelevant stuff', some new(?) features we put together:
I was curious about the IR thingie. It obviously gets confused if you place GamePad next to TV sensor bar. Wonder if they'll use this together any time soon. Also, nice presentation in Madrid:
