New Play Control! Pikmin (Nintendo Wii)
They're small. They're plantlike. They're Pikmin! And they can be a space traveler's best friend! Stranded on an unknown planet, Captain Olimar must enlist the help of these native Pikmin. Together, they must rebuild Olimar's spaceship and defend themselves from attackers. Time is tight. Cooperation is key. This innovative action-strategy game is unlike any other game you've ever played, and with remastered Wii controls, it’s never played better!
New Play Control! Pikmin (Nintendo Wii) Reviews
I had never played pikmin before. It is a lot of fun - reminds me a lot of the old Lemming's PC game. You get to control three diferent types of alien flower creatures that worship you. I haven't completed it yet, but for the price, you can't go wrong here if you like real time puzzle games.

The original Pikmin was an underrated game on The Gamecube Console back in 2001. Now it seems to be suffering the same fate. The title and cover suggest a cutesy and shallow game experience for the very young ones only. However this is an in-depth real time strategy game that is a lot of fun and I'm a big fan of games like StarCraft and even Warcraft III! It is certainly far from shallow! The Wii controls on this game work perfectly and complement the game well. Overall If you missed it on Gamecube (or finished it back in 2001 like me) this is your chance to enjoy an amazing game experience and at this price, it's a steal!
Actually when I passed this version a couple weeks ago I immediately started playing it again from the beginning, no breaks with other games, and then I passed it and immediately started playing it again, each time passing it at a better time. You won't want to put it down! I know I sure didn't. Now I can't wait until they release Pikmin 2 for the "New Play Control" series!

I loved this game for the Gamecube, and truly it isn't much different now, you just use two hands to control the characters. If you already have it for the Gamecube and like the old controllers I wouldn't spend the money on it.
