Shigeru Miyamoto, the
world-famous creator of Mario and Zelda, has been waiting for years
to develop a game like this. When a space traveler crashes in a
strange world, the Pikmin - a curious race of plantlike creatures -
help him explore, fight off savage predators and assemble the
scattered pieces of his spaceship. The Pikmin look like flowers when
they're in the ground, but they can move freely and work together.
Time is running out on the space traveler's life-support system,
though, which means you'll have to race against a Majora's Mask-like
deadline. Controlling more than a hundred Pikmin at once is an
experience unlike any you've ever had in a video game!

CloudChaser Nintendo:
"You can play for two days or two weeks, it depends on how
satisfied you are with your efforts. If you give it a chance,
however, it is likely that your dreams for the near future are going
to be red, yellow and blue as you imagine ways of organizing a
better day."

IGN Cube:
"All in all, a very complete puzzle-strategy-adventure that
comes highly recommended. Visually, the game is a beautiful
achievement. The quirky, life-under-the-microscope title delivers a
unique experience like few before it with a blend of real-time
strategy, adventure, and puzzle elements."

Spot:
"Featuring slick graphics and addictive gameplay, Pikmin is a
fresh entry in the GameCube software library. It's an original game
that showcases the GC hardware and Nintendo development prowess...
If you're looking for a cool game to show off your system, you
should pick it up."

Nintendojo:
"The delicate balance between simple controls and puzzling
objectives keeps Pikmin entertaining throughout the entire
adventure. Don't let Pikmin's typical Nintendo-cuddly look deter
you. Pikmin isn't for every gamer, but this game is worthy of your
and should be in your library. Long live the Pikmin."

Planet GameCube:
"Pikmin graphically are impressive by themselves. Seeing 100
Pikmin running around and responding to the environment has to be
witnessed to be truly appreciated. Pikmin more than exemplifies what
“The Nintendo Difference” is all about. Miyamoto has created yet
another unique and wonderful experience." |
