Pikmin 3 (ピクミン3 Pikumin Surī?) is a real-time strategy video game developed by Nintendo for the Wii U video game console. It is the direct sequel to the 2004 Nintendo GameCube game Pikmin 2 and is the third game in the Pikmin series. The game was released on July 13, 2013 in Japan, July 26, 2013 in Europe, July 27, 2013 in Australia, and will be released on August 4, 2013 in North America.

Who's excited for this game? I know I'm picking it up day 1, have a couple of my friends coming over to play Bingo Battle and destroy challenge mode together. Sunday can't come soon enough!

No but I fucking love them. Should I apply for a job? I think I'd do a better job than them right now.

to be fair to the second picture it looks like you dug up the absolute worst one you could possibly find to compare to

that said pikmin 3 looks great and I've always liked the series, I'm excited to see what new flavors of pikmin we get to use this time

too bad I'm not going to get a Wii U anytime soon but it still looks really nice

The fuck you say? P2 was amazing, granted it was a bit more casual, the 30 day limit got old when I could beat the game in 21-24 days. P2 felt much more adventurous, the scenery was very nice, and White pikmin were the best. idk, it's hard to see 1 being better than 2 when 2 improved and added things with the only difference being no limit. In turn, we got dungeons, multiplayer, challenge mode, updated graphics, nicer looking areas, 2 new pikmin (I'll agree that they were slightly OP, at least purple, but they brought new challenges to the game), and some neat boss battles.

As for 3, I'm so sad I don't have a Wii-U. I've been waiting for this game for years, and I have no idea when I'll be able to grab a Wii-U.

Me and my brother will probably be picking it up as soon as it comes out if we can. I used to play pikmin 1 and 2 a shit ton even though I was never that good at either of them.

Have you ever listened to this song?

It was originally recorded in Japanese and in Pikmin 1 but some people re-dubbed it in english. Sad song. Listen to the lyrics.

I did my best to save every fucking Pikmin I had. The worst was when they would get stuck in the water, and I was just spamming the whistle to save them, but there would always be that one that could make it. Or the times with that fucking bird or rolling thing that would just decimate you.

Holy fuck, I hated those feelings.

"adventurous" is too vague to mean anything, and "the scenery was very nice" is just stupid to argue when you're saying a game is better. games are about gameplay not graphics. unless you're the average consumer who goes "zomggg zombies and nazis with dubstep lens flare ZOMGGG!!!" but i dont care enough about pikmin so

It's called "immersion" and it gives the game another reason on top of the gameplay the game offers. Also, I pointed out all of the gameplay mechanics that it improved on, so I don't see where you are going with this.

I feel you, it's the worst feeling when you try to save them but deep inside you know it's already too late :(
