I love the style of it the more I see it. When I pick up a Wii U I will have to get the latest game. Never tried one and they look interesting. Oddly enough the thing that got me interested in them was the charm of the 3DS transfer animation. They carry blocks of your saves to another location, was so damn cute.

Jus a word of advice. Beware, underneath the cutsey look lies a much deeper layer full of violence and strategy. It's brilliant, but it's not an easy game (well you don't get any game overs, but you get a feeling far worse).

To be honest, Pikmin was a game I didn't "get" back when it first came out on Gamecube. Partially lack of experience with RTS. It wasn't until a number of years later I replayed Pikmin 1 and 2 and it clicked. I now think they're some of the best games Nintendo has ever created purely on the design alone.

With a better understanding, I am looking forward to the various design expansions in Pikmin 3.

I was always hoping that Pikmin 3 would try and emulate the clay look of the promotional artwork.

Too bad.

Do you have a Wii to transfer from?

Pikmin is the cutest game about slave labor, genocide and fighting for survival against starvation/suffocation due to deadly oxygen/voracious wildlife set on a post-apocalyptic planet earth ever.

If Pikmin didn't already exist and you described it like that, I doubt there are many people in the world that would design a game as cutesy as Pikmin is.

I think the Wii U could get "close enough" to the promo art.

12 days.. Gimme an OT to go bonkers in soon!! I love everything about this thread

You know, it's an awesome idea to loop the image, but it wasn't seamless, so I made a continuous version. There's also now a four-leaf-clover in there somewhere... :]

So awesome... I'll fix it up right now. Thanks!

Clay look works fine for promo art, but not for a 3D game.

Pikmin's art is amazing <3. I've been using this dekstop composition for a while now, I love it!

Holy shit

Holy shit

In Nintendo we trust. Not too many companies can make a load screen not only tolerable, but pleasurable to watch (and advertise one of their heavy hitters in the process).

 

[FeiRR]

alright, anybody here intending to get a Wii U when this comes out?

Not yet. But I saw those pics and some gameplay and promised myself to get a Wii U the day it goes down to 100 euros just for this and X.

We will be hearing news from Nintendo's new console by then
