F0X said: It's a clear genrational leap... from the Wii. Or are you really meaning a two-generational leap, going beyond 360/PS3? Such a feat is usually reserved for Duke Nukem, so that's not necessarily a reasonable expectation if we are to assume that Nintendo is remotely smart. In all likelihood, Pikmin 3 did not begin full development until 2010 (it started pre-production in 2008) and by that time Nintendo may have already decided to move the project to Wii U. That would explain why Nintendo kept quiet about it for so long, and why we haven't seen any Wii version screenshots, unlike Kameo on Xbox. Moreover, Pikmin 3 is a very nice-looking game. Have you seen any of the screenshots recently? "Poor visuals" my ass. |
It certainly is a leap from the Wii, but we're talking about a leap from PS360 here. Different things. The rest of your post is speculation
