Miyamoto Says He’s Really Enjoying Developing Pikmin 3 On Wii U

Legendary games designer Shigeru Miyamoto has confessed that he’s really enjoying working on Pikmin 3 for Wii U. The game was originally developed for Wii, but Miyamoto says that having high definition graphics and a touch screen at his disposal is enabling him to create a game he’s truly happy with.

“Originally, I was making Pikmin 3 to be launched on the Wii platform. Because the Wii U is capable of HD quality pictures, and will be accompanied by the subscreen on your hand. I thought that I would be able to make a Pikmin that was closer to my ideal. I am now actually enjoying myself, working on the game.”

    1. WHITNEY HOUSTON DIED HOW TRAGIC AND UNEXPECTED AND VERY SAD! A TALENT AND VOICE LIKE HERS CANNOT BE DUPLICATED! SHE WAS A VERY TALENTED SINGER QUEEN OF POP MUSIC ITS SO TRAGIC HOW HER LAST DAYS WERE VERY STRESSFUL AND HOW SHE WAS ON VARIOUS ANTI-DEPRESSANT PILLS :(
      WERE ALK HUMANS AND MAKE MISTAKES YOUR NO DIFFERENT! HOPEFULLY NOW YOUR IN HEAVEN WITH ANGEL BY YOUR SIDE! RIP YOU WILL ALWAYS BE REMEMBERED WE WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU WHITNEY!!!

      1. I don’t even know who that is.
        “YOUR NO DIFFERENT!”
        I think I’ll now post caps lock posts every time I know when a person dies.

    1. Me neither! I think the Wii U is the perfect console for Pikmin. The style of the game will look it’s best with as much detail as possible. The awesome graphics of the Wii U would accommodate the detailed and realistic style of Pikmin. And having HD for Pikmin is something that I think is perfect as well. It would allow you to have the camera zoomed out very far, but still be able to see detail of the characters/Pikmin below. Also there is so much info and numbers that you have to pay attention to while playing Pikmin, so having all that stuff on a separate controller would be great.

      1. It is a super amazing game franchise. The series is a form of RTS. You play a 1-inch-tall-man who crash-lands on earth and control little creatures called pikmin of various colors and abilities. You navigate parts of the natural world (which are sort of taking place in a backyard garden) and collect treasures and fight creatures. Its a highly imaginative game and one of the best around.
        This game is gonna be beautiful with high def awesome graphics.

      2. Heres the trailer to see some gameplay and the trailer it’s self… this is the first Pikmin and trailer was back in 2001.

        1. I just hope Miyamoto and the development team took some notes from Little King’s Story because that game was like Pikmin on steroids. It was better on almost every aspect in my opinion. Hopefully they’ll make another LKS. I thoroughly enjoy both franchises.

          1. Brilliant game, Pikmin 2 is my all time favourite game, managed to complete New Play Control Pikmin 2 in under a day. If this is a launch title I’ll be throwing money at Nintendo!

  1. I’m glad he enjoys his job, is excellent at it, and doesn’t do it just for the money, although obviously, yes he needs to be paid in order to make a living. But I’m glad there’s more to it than just the money.

    1. You made a true statement.

      These days movie directors and Game developers seem to care about money more then anything else… you knew about MW3 when the fans did not like it… it was activation trying to take Money.

      HOWEVER! companies like nintendo don’t care about the money… they care about the fan base.

      1. Agreed, however not to play Devil’s advocate, but Nintendo Does care about Money, they Just believe the best way to make money and be profitable is to keep their buyers happy with quality gaming.

        Just trying to troll-proof your statement. (Not that it’s possible, Lol)

      1. I’m starting to not mind if there’s no first party games at the Wii U’s launch, if there’s not i’m going to get Aliens: Colonial Marines. That game looks EPIC :D

      2. Wii know we’er going to buy the 1st party titles when they hit. Wii need to show these 3rd party dves that 3rds are just as important to us as the 1st party titles are just saying.

    1. HD is not what makes a console… it’s the graphics card and processor… just saying :/ HD also makes a massive difference.

      Because of the processor, RAM and graphics card… we will see more detailed objects and really… everything you see will look better.

    2. It would be cool if the game had a photorealistic garden with cartoon caracters. it would be a unique visual, since the garden is inspired in a real one.

        1. He said hurry up…

          You need to make the game enough to make a trailer.

          Same with movies… you need to film it then make the trailer.

        1. Actually, that game, in a sense, was rushed, since it wasn’t continuously developed by the same company throughout its near-fifteen-year development cycle. It switched hands in like 2010, and of course a year alone isn’t enough, so you can say it was rushed out at the last minute.

  2. me wants this but me miniumums wage in dah greece gons down nows.so me get less 4 sucking dah cock.so wills takes longer or more cocks for me to affords.

  3. Ah man, I really wish Play Control Pikmin 2 came out. The Pikmin 2 game starts at about $30 used for Gamecube in America. I have Pikmin for GCN but never got Pikmin 2. I hope Wii U has a bundle or DLC or something so those who never got to play Pikmin 2 get a chance to.

  4. TROLLS TAKE HEED
    You fell for the “HD Gimmick” long before we fell for the “3D Gimmick.”
    You were hypocrites before we were Fanboys.

    Post in a forum where your idiocy will go unnoticed. You just appear ignorant here.

  5. The trailer for the game to be announced should use that blue “U” logo like in the first Wii U trailer where it made that “popping” noise. Only for the pikmin trailer, some pikmin seeds should “to everyone’s suprise” pop out XD

  6. New consoles at E3 are always a treat to see, and I also hope a trailer for Pikmin 3 is shown. Can’t wait to see what Nintendo has done to the Wii U since E3 2011.
