Pikmin 3 Wii U will be Miyamoto's ideal Pikmin game
Miyamoto enjoying working on it
Shigeru Miyamoto has said that he is enjoying working on Pikmin 3 on Wii U, a game that is closer to his original concept for Pikmin.
Thanks to the power of HD, Miyamoto is able to create a game that he's truly happy with.
"Originally, I was making Pikmin 3 to be launched on the Wii platform," Miyamoto told Entertainment Weekly. "Because the Wii U is capable of HD quality pictures, and will be accompanied by the subscreen on your hand. I thought that I would be able to make a Pikmin that was closer to my ideal. I am now actually enjoying myself, working on the game."
So it seems as if the Wii U's touch screen will have a big part to play, then. Here are our Pikmin 3 ideas.
I've been anticipating this game for years now maybe the touch screen is used so you can control Pikmin over an entire map rather than they just follow you around, or something similar, I hope that this is a launch game!
If they manage to make this game longer than the Gamecube titles in the series (i'm talking like 30+ hours of gameplay) then this could shape up to be one of the finest Nintendo games ever made.
Seriously, everything else is intact within the formula (the Real-Time Strat gameplay, the well designed levels etc). If they just give us a longer game then that's all Miyamoto really needs to do.
The only thing better than this would be a 3DS version as well with full connectivity! But I can't get too greedy. Just knowing that Pikmin 3 is on its way is good enough!
I have never played Pikimin before but I will be sure to make up for my lost opportunity by purchasing P3. (I would go back and buy the older two but... you know, I might just go and buy the older two)
Finally some more Pikmin 3 news! Glad he's happy with it, it's pretty much the seal of awesomeness when Miyamoto is working on a game. Cannot wait!

Yessss PIKMIN for the win! I was waiting for this!

It's been a few years now, I hope the game is worth the wait!

I hope theirs a day count. I didn't like pikmin 2 and pikmin 1 was far supperiour in my opinion.
huray pikmin is coming to the wii u
