With the likes of Mario Tennis Ultra Smash, Animal Crossing Amiibo Festival, and Metroid Prime Federation Force, there have been a lot of Nintendo games lately that feel like shallow, low quality cash-ins on a popular brand name. Sadly, Pikmin 3DS looks to me like it will be yet another example.

Pikmin games have always been about strategy and exploration, yet everything we've seen so far indicates this will be a simplistic sidescroller where you just walk left to right and tap to throw Pikmin.

It looks like something you'd download for 99 cents on the app store, but you can bet your arse Nintendo will be charging like $30 (or whatever a standard 3DS game costs) for it.

I agree with the three mentioned games, they were dissapointing, but as for Pikmin 3DS, it doesn´t seem a project intented to reproduce the traditional Pikmin gameplay. To me, it seems more like  a spin-off side scroller with a few strategy/puzzle elements. I prefer to wait and see what the game has to offer.

At least from a visual standpoint, it seems fine, to me.
