Thats what it looked like to me you can sort of see them at the beginning too there they had the new blue buds like the rock pikmin do. Flying Pink Pikmin

I never got into the first Pikmin but I only rented it at the time. Maybe I should give it another shot.

I would actually suggest Pikmen 2 over the first. it removes the 30 day limit which i think is a good improvement (But probably the only improvement in fun over the first. Both are phenomenal)

YES!!!! THIS GAME IS GIVING ME AN ORGASM!!!! I'M THAT EXCITED ABOUT IT!!!

SHBD EMHCKBDW CHEWVJGSXHKV!!! Sorry, I forgot how to spell for a sec-YFTYCGDTCXHKJVJCFYXDJXVHFXSVXKHVKXBXK>HVXLBXKXVYIGXLVXKYXVX!!!!!!!! YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES! But some questions remain! Who are these new leaders? Are Rock Pikmin the only new Pikmin? Will Olimar make an appearance or is this game a prequel?

In order, we don't know, probably not, they did say Olimar is not one of the captains and the reason why is a secret right now, but that's not saying he won't be in it. Honestly, i hope this takes place in an entirely different time from Olimar, and he's a super secret unlockable character or something of the like.

Looks to be a good game to have for the Wii U.

I haven't played Pikmin or Pikmin 2, should I?

The Wii port of Pikmin 2 comes out later this month for only 20$, so I would do that.

Totally! As Sobari said, play them in order. It will take a bit to get a good feel for the control, but it becomes natural pretty quickly.

They're great games. If you play them both, though, play them in order. The sequel makes noticeable improvements over the original, so playing them out of order might ruin the first one.

So glad to finally see a new pikmin game! But hope the purple and white pikmin make a return.

They are. Nintendo's E3 page, when talking about Rock Pikmin, mentions "In addition to the five original types of Pikmin encountered in previous games". Which is good because I like purple and white Pikmin. :)

Can't wait to play this game, it has been way long since pikmin 2 came out. Hopefully this will be a launch title, so we can buy it as soon as the wii U is released.

Yes, finally!!! And it looks mighty fine =) I'm a big fan of the orginal. So mush potencial for typical pikmin mayhem. I'm excited for this one, and loved the simple manner in wish the nintendo staff conducted the presentation.

This is probably my favorite game they showed at the conference, from what I read about anyways. I liked the first two games, and the gameplay as well as the music for this new entry looks impressive.

Just about the only thing I really liked about the Wii U. -___-

Awesome!!!! The wait is finally over! But where is Olimar?

Sobari

June 5, 2012 - 3:25pm

Game looks fun and gorgeous, but I'm not entirely certain I'm happy with how the Wii U GamePad is being used for this.

YES! GOD DAMN YES! I'VE BEEN WAITING 8 GOD DAMN YEARS AND I AM SO GOD DAMN HAPPY.

GOD DAMN.
