Meh, those are clearly just Wii graphics in HD, 360 could do that easily! :p


Its true this was a Wii game at one point in development, but i doubt the 360 could do this game and maintain a steady framerate.

I wasn't being serious, I was mocking the way some gamers always try to downplay Wii U's games with graphical comparisons.

oh, sorry i dont understand sarcasm that much. Especially on the internet

If I use a ":P" face I'm generally being sarcastic, for the record. (:p)

I'm aware the game started on the Wii (In 2008 no less) so from a technical point of view it's not exactly pushing the limits of the system. It's colourful, quirky art style still makes it look great to me, though.

damn I don't like that they removed the white and purple pikmin from the main game :(

Wollywogs, Bulbears, Snagrets and pretty much any enemy turned too easy with the purple Pikmin.

It hurts, but in Pikmin 1 you HAD to sacrifice Pikmin in order to survive. It was much easier to survive in Pikmin 2 and keep casualties at minimun.

Actually, it's quite possible to beat both Pikmin games without losing a single Pikmin. I've seen it done; just takes a lot of skill and patience.

How many frames per second!? That's most important to me! Also, I guess online leaderboards are better nothing, but they really should of had online multiplayer. It would just make so much sense for this game! Guess I'll have to hope for that in the next game, if there is a next one. :O

It's a first party Nintendo game, so it's most likely 60fps.

I know. But it's much easier to do it in Pikmin 2. I did it myself actually, while in Pikmin 1 I always lose hundreds of Pikmin.

Ah, I didn't realize most of their games were 60fps. That's pretty awesome then.

Mmm.. both Pikmin games ran at 30fps. It was pretty smooth though.

I'm confident this one will run at 60FPS since it's much better HW.

Yeah, it's pretty much a standard for them. Mario Galaxy 1 & 2, New Super Mario Bros Wii/U, Mario Kart Wii, Mario Kart 8, Smash Bros Brawl, Metroid Prime 3, Metroid Other M, Donkey Kong Country Returns, all 60fps.

I added a in game picture, for those who wanted to see what to looking farward to in terms of graphics
