All you people thinking of getting this who have never played a Pikmin game before: Start with Pikmin 1. Seriously, I have no idea why you wouldn't.
There is a Wii version which is compatible with Wii-U; which should be going for fairly cheap now. The first two games are absolute masterpieces which still hold up incredibly well to this day. You'd really be missing out by jumping straight into the third game, imo. Sure, there's not a massive overarching story holding it all together but I just think it'd make sense to play them through in order to see how the mechanics have progressed.
But to stay OT: I will not be buying Pikmin 3 when it launches or even in the foreseeable future, but when the time is right and I buy a Wii-U it'll be the first game I get. Pikmin is my favourite Nintendo franchise by a country mile.
