I was really disappointed that they took colors out though, seems like lazy game design or a rushed project. 

They started making Pikmin 3 is 2008. Then delayed it from a Wii U launch title to a mid 2013 release. If certainly wasn't rushed.


In that sense, yes, but it was originally going to be for the Wii. I don't mean it was rushed in terms of it not being in development for long enough, but for the fact that certain aspects were rushed. The failure to integrate all the colors into the game is just one example of this. Perhaps a better and more defendable example would be the gamepad controls. It was pretty universally agreed that the gamepad added very little and the wiimote was the more developed and definitive control scheme. I hated the gamepad controls, but couldn't get the Wiimote to work right. I have a new setup now, and the wiimote might work better now, so I do really want to try the game again. Believe me, I don't like badmouthing Pikmin, it has a special place for me. Rushed might have been a harsh thing to say though.
