No... just no.

First off, this game wasn't even utilizing the gamepad at all. It works just fine with Wiimote/nunchuk.
They could have delayed it for gamepad support especially if they make it a 2-3 player game. Makes sense.

But for a launch of 2 gamepad support? No. Pikmin's audience is simply too limited and it'd play well enough with wiimote on split-screen that very very few would bother spending an extra $100 for a second gamepad that might get used if a friend comes over and prefers it over wiimote.
