The big upcoming game for the summer on the Nintendo 3DS is without a doubt Hey! Pikmin. The game is a change from the traditional formula and is a 2D side scrolling platformer but with the bright and colourful visuals that we have come to expect from Nintendo and the Pikmin franchise. Nintendo Insider went hands-on with the game and you can check out some gameplay from Sector 1 Area A. If you want to see more videos then click the link here.
Here’s Some Footage Of Hey! Pikmin
As if Mario, Donkey Kong, Wario, Yoshi and Kirby side scroller games are not enough for Nintendo. Now Captain Olimar joins the side scroller club. I have mixed feelings for this but I can’t judge til I try it out myself.
“Big upcoming game”
It’s gonna be trash
Looks like a slow paced yoshi’s island with a pikmin skin… hopefully it’s good!
Looks awesome! I just wish it was on Switch at this point, just like every other game that isn’t haha
This game looks majestic in its execution. Never thought the Pikmin formula would Translate so well into 2d
Anyone else freaking out about Olimar’s mouth actually being open?
I’m pretty sure there were a couple of frames in Smash 4 where his mouth is slightly open too.
Not that wide though. xD
Eh, looks pretty good, I’ll probably pick it up.
I never got the fascination with Pikmin, it’s so fucking boring and stressful.
