Pikmin was VERY popular for the type of game it was and I never noticed that until today. Today I was looking on V.G.C and wanted to look at the best selling games for each genre and when I came to Strategy I was VERY surprised and VERY happy. As everyone knows I am a HUGE pikmin fan and so I knew it was a Strategy game and I went down the list until I found Pikmin which wasn't far down which made me happy.
Pikmin is the #15 best selling Strategy game of all time. As many know Strategy games sell better on a P.C and not a Home console so I wanted to see how it did when I don't count all of the P.C games.
Pikmin is the #4 best selling non P.C Strategy game of all time! I found that to be HUGE for a game that made its debut on the worst selling Nintendo Home console ever made. Pikmin only lost to #3: Halo Wars, #2: Pokemon Stadium 2, and #1: Pokemon Stadium(1)
I also think that when Pikmin 3 comes out it could outsell Halo Wars and maybe Pokemon Stadium 2 but Pokemon Stadium(1) is probably impossible but who knows what the Wii can do considering the new base Nintendo found this gen!
