If Pikmin 4 was coming to Wii U, we would have seen it in action already.

And if it's not far enough along to be shown, then it won't be coming to Wii U.

Don't agree, because Pikmin probably isnt game for launch in first few months in 2016, remember on Nintendo Direct we had only titles we getting till end this year and in first few months in 2016.

If it's not in early 2016, they won't put it on Wii U, they'll just bump it onto NX, just like Wii got no more major games around Wii U's launch.

There is huge gap between early 2016. and end of year when we assuming that NX will launched. Also its not exactly same situation with Wii, beacuse Wii U will only be 4 years on market while Wii was 6 years, and Nintendo already said they want that Wii U owners be satisfied before releasing new console.

Like I wrote, new Pikmin game for Wii U could be made pretty fast and without lots resources because they already have Pikmin 3 engine and assets, it's very similar Pikmin situation we had with GC.

Of Course all this doesn't mean that Pikmin 100% is arriving on Wii U, but I say there are good chances and I expecting Pikmin 4 revel in of the next two Nintendo Directsmaybe even on Game Awards. Also there chances that will be NX port, same like Zelda U.

I doubt it, they never mentioned that Pikmin 4 was a Wii U game or was coming to Wii U.

No, Eurogamer just said that Miyamoto said to them that new Pikmin is almost complete. Why would Miyamoto said that at all if its a NX game, when we still dont know nothing about NX or any game for NX!? For me much better chances are that is Wii U game.



Pikmin 4 is 80% likely to be Wii U I'd say given Miyamoto's comments. AC Wii U is also a possibility. Quite frankly, they are probably the only two "big" games coming to Wii U that have yet to be announced.

The same Miyamoto that said Starfox Zero would release in 2015?

Yes that same Miyamoto. I don't see your point, when developers think that game isn't finished they delay it, in that matter Miyamoto isn't different than any other developer on market.

Point is Miyamoto's word should be taken with a massive grain of salt. His idea of a game being "nearly finished" could mean it's a long way off.

If it was coming in the first half of 2016, we would have seen it already.

If it's coming in the second half, they'll figure they might as well bump it to NX.

Nearly finished for me means 2016. game even if Miyamoto said it, and it not like any thing Miyamoto said its lie or not true, like I wrote, Miyamoto isn't different than any other developer on market in that matter.

TP HD is March game and we seeint just now, only 3-4 months before it will be released. Wii U will be another whole year on market, don't think that Nintendo announced already they have for Wii U or 3DS, one of those games is probably Pikmin 4.

Maybe will come on Wii U and NX, but I think it will came on Wii U in any case.

Anything that's far enough out not to have been shown is probably moved to NX; Nintendo suffered badly at Wii U's launch from not having enough software ready, and they'll want to stop this happening again. If it comes down to a choice between supporting Wii U, and supporting NX, they'll choose the one that isn't a lost cause.

Again, in my opinion, they should support Wii U as best they can to build consumer trust going forwards.

I'm not saying what I want to happen here, I'm saying what I fear will happen.
