Pikmin is good looking but I hope to god its far from the best, i see polygons where I should not. What ever is best now i think will be easily surpassed.

There are several more impressive Wii U games than Pikmin 3 in my view; 3D World, Trine 2, Need for Speed, Nano Assault. Pikmin suffered a little from starting off as a Wii game and being one of Nintendo's first awkward steps into the HD realm. I still think it looks pretty thanks to great art though.

And I agree that the current best will be easily topped by what's coming this year.

You said exactly what I wanted to: Pikmin 3 started as a Wii game.  While they essentially "remastered" it in HD for the Wii U, some early development signs of its Wii days are definitely still there, as they probably wanted to maintain the budget rather than scrap everything and start over by upscaling existing assets.
