        1. You’re pretty homophobic. Learn that using the word ‘gay’ to mean stupid is insulting a whole community of people and no more acceptable than using a racial slur.

          1. You mean skyrim? Pikmin isn’t the best game ever!! I believe there’s a lot of games which deserve that title
            HALO, oot, mass effect, super mario 64, pikmin, whatever its a game and don’t troll someone if they don’t enjoy those games.

              1. Everybody in the gaming world has different tastes to games and everyone has their own opinion in which is the worlds best game. For me, it is out of Skyward Sword and Orcarina of Time, but that is just my opinion. So its really not wise to criticise someone just ’cause they think Halo is great.

  1. At least this is a good way to start before they release Pikmin 3, but for US Wii owners, it’s kinda late -_-

    1. I know, right? I live in the US, and have been anxious to play Pikmin 2 again. I played it hard in the gamecube days, and have been waiting for the Wii remake for a very long time!

      I guess better late than never…

  2. Making Pikmin 2 more accessible so more people can play it before they release the 3rd one for Wii U this year, I hope. Leave luck to heaven.

    1. I see what they’re doing. The E3 conference is on June 5th. Pikmin 2 comes out 5 days after that, they have to reintroduce the series before the Wii U Launch, which can really only mean one thing; Pikmin 3 is going to be available launch day.

        1. Er no.

          All we know is that Pikmin 3 is going be for the Wii U and that we are going to see some game play at E3.

          Nintendo never stated that it would be a launch game.

  3. Why wouldn’t they just release this on the vitual console and put that to better use and concentrate on developing and releasing new games?

    1. there is no point cuase its a gamecube they could just by that version and it would be the only gamecube game on VC. Plus that would take up alot of memory.

    2. Because ninendo doesn’t release wii games on virtual console. Also this game had been done a long time ago, it just couldn’t be brought to the US because of licensing problems (due to all the products mentioned in the game).

  4. Wait, how it’s worded it sounds like Mario Power Tennis is getting released, do you just mean for Nintendo Selects?

  5. So, remind me: how is Pikmin (the original one) not a Nintendo Selects Title?

    Oh, and good. This makes buying Pikmin 2 easier.

      1. It’s worth more than that dude. It’s still a collectible. In fact, the originals value will go up when the game becomes more well known.

  6. It took so long for it to be released in US because of some copyright involving some banners in the game, like Duracell for example.

  7. Pingback: Zelda Sanctuary » Super Smash Bros. Brawl is now selling for $29.99! - Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, Zelda Wii, Zelda 3DS, Walkthroughs, Guides, and News!

      1. You can’t tell people what they can and can’t buy. If you think you can, your’e just being an immature prick. If he wants to buy Pikmin 2, which is a great game which evryone should get the chance to play, he has every right to.

  8. Nintendo is finally gearing up for the Wii U. Sales for those games will go up when people who didn’t get a Wii or those games pick up a Wii U and those titles at a reduced price. I never thought they would lower the price of Brawl before SMG 2.
