I\'m surprised you managed to get past the Nintendo logo in the beginning, MM!

The game\'s music reeks of "cute".. from the title screen to the very end of the game. :)

So, what do you think of the gameplay?

yeah, my ears almost started bleeding when some tinny childlike voice screamed PIKMIN! during the loading screen, then i saw the nintendo logo and looked over my shoulder to make sure noone saw me playing

its almost like an adventure/puzzle game

plus i have a blast throwing those little bastids around
everytime they have to carry a piece back to my ship, i make whip cracking noises and say, HURRY UP YOU LITTLE TERDS!

It really is a shame that a original and quality game like Pikmin didn\'t gain true commercial success (it got plenty of critical success / praise). I can only hope Nintendo goes forward with a sequel ,  or at least give us some information towards the Pikmin as a franchise come E3.

I bought the game the same day I bought SSBM. I got home, tried out SSBM and was not impressed with the gameplay. So, I loaded up Pikmin and could not stop playing it. Eventually I beat it, but didn\'t get all the parts, so I went back and tried to get all the parts. Once I beat it that time, I went back again to try and prefect my time / pikmin count and so on. Addictive and deep.

(P.S - Also further proof that a game doesn\'t need to supply us with tons of mature theme\'s (blood, sexual references) or a deep storyline , to still be fun.)

MM: Nah, you can kill as many as you want.. although it\'ll make getting some of the pieces very difficult.

Hint: Red Pikmin are the best fighters, easily. :)

My advice would be for you to take a bunch of Red Pikmin, plant \'em until they have a fully developed bud / flower on their head and then pick them. They\'ll be Super-Pikmin then! If you develop a nice army of those, you can take on anything, espically the fire breathing giant ant (at least thats what I think it is?!?) in some of the later levels.

Yea I agree that the children laughing in the beginning was a little unsettling, but other than that the game rocks (0rz j00r b0x0rz).

When I played, if I wasn\'t happy with my progress for the day I would restart the level.  In the end I walked away with every ship piece but it took a big hunk of the replay value out for me, so you might keep that in mind.

Good luck though, it\'s a lot of fun.  I wonder what they have planned for the sequel?  Olimar revisits the planet and....

The "Ack!" shouldn\'t be in the title! There is no problem with liking this game at all. Its what all games should be, unique and really fun.


This is coming alot from a guy that hasn\'t played it yet though... :rolleyes:
