I'm really looking forward to this game actually. I loved the first two Pikmin games, and I'm interested in seeing the new additions being made to this next installment.

Rock pikmin do tons of damage when thrown. Purple pikmin run slow, carry lots, punch hard, and do tons of damage when thrown. Please explain to me why rock pikmin exist.

Other than that, I`m stoked.

Absolutely going bonkers for this, my favorite game series of all time finally getting a new installment ... it's glorious... that's all I can say.

Ok, maybe not... but damn it, if this was a launch title I'd buy a Wii U day one just for this.

If you have a Gamecube or Wii I highly reccomend either version of both games, they really were fun, especially the multiplayer mode for 2 if you can round up a mate to play it with you.

Bryan, why'd you have to say that? A game that makes you think is immediately going to turn off any and all COD folks...as well as most "Hardcore" gamers.

I didn't know squat about pikman. I thought it was some platformer. Boy, how wrong I was!
