Title: Pikmin Wii
Post by: Domo on July 17, 2008, 02:45:53 am: So I was just reading a live-blog of Nintendo's 2008 E3 Developer Roundtable at Joystiq and this happened:

Quote from: Joystiq
7:38 In response to a question about whether or not a new Pikmin is in the works, Miyamoto says he'll announced the new game when he's ready. Apparently he's ready now. "We're making Pikmin," the translator says. OMG MEGATONZ!

...And that was basically the end of it. There you have it, not all is lost.

Discuss.

Yeah. Usually slaves are cool. I wonder what they did to pass the time after slavery was banned and before video games came out...

The controls will probably be nice and it hopefully will have new features that compliment the game well - like use of the Wii-mote, possible use of the weather feature based on where you live to alter in-game conditions, online features, etc.

I played so much Pikmin 2 with my friends. Co-op and vs. I'm looking forward to this game, and I'd especially like to see what's going to happen to Louie in the next game (the ending of Pikmin 2 was so sad for Louie >.<)

I never thought of that as a possible game element! :O

...I will keep it in the back of my mind for after I graduate and am "in the biz".

Also, yay Pikmin Wii! Hopefully, I will have enough money to buy this, Dragon Quest IV*, Animal Crossing Wii, and God knows what else is coming out AND pay the portion of the rent I have to pay.

*inb4 R4 - I'm trying to have S-E realize that DQ is wanted in the states! >:(
