Pikmin 2 also getting New Play Control!
If there’s one great thing about these New Play Control! games, it’s not the awful box art frame or the title extension. It’s that Nintendo is releasing to the larger Wii audience some of last generation’s gems that unfortunately never saw commercial success due to the failure of the GameCube. We’re already getting Pikmin and Mario Power Tennis here in North America, and it looks like we may be getting the even rarer sequel, Pikmin 2.
It also makes you wonder how far along Miyamoto and his team is on Pikmin 3. With the first Pikmin being re-released in the States and Canada by March, and Pikmin 2 already rated by the ESRB, sure Nintendo’s priming us for the inevitable second sequel. Are we already gearing up for Holiday ‘09?
