Nintendo should've really launched with Pikmin and 101 as promised instead of holding back to prevent pissing off 3rd party devs. They should've also gotten their Day 1 update fiasco dealt with and not left us with a blank Q1. Seriously waiting on that WindWaker HD ambassadors Nintendo.

(Also release GC VC already I have 50$ to ready to shell out for some of those games.)

I don't really see Pikmin as a system seller though... The whole series have sold like 3m combined... It's not a big franchise and won't push systems like a new Zelda... But I agree 100% with the rest of your statement!!

Pikmin isn't a system seller but it would've helped get some ninty fans buying it, I mean not even Ninty fans buy 2 NSMB in the same year. There are a certain amount of people holding back and that's because of the surprising lack of 1st party software. Pikmin would've moved at least 100-300k more.

With that reasoning it makes much more sense to release Pikmin right about now to continue the momentum and keeping sales up and stable.
