Wahey, the lovely little game is now sitting in its oversized box besides my computer.

Is it just me or did this game sorta come out without a bang? I mean Animal Crossing got a bigger reception prior to release than this classic title.

I haven't seen one advert, most magazines are plastering Paper Mario or Donkey Konga on their covers and most Nintendo of Europe stuff is far more interested in last weeks GBA SP price drop and Pokemon release.

Poor Pikmin 2, I hope it won't effect the sales too much.

I still can't believe you liked Pikmin 2 but not Pikmin 1. Pikmin 2 is just the same as the first with a hell of a lot of whistles and bells attached. It is still fundementally the same game.

It's far from the first Pikmin. 4 times the size, fantastic multiplayer and brand new Pikmin types. Not to mention all the features.

I haven't played it in over a week.
It's like Pikmin 1 all over again.

Completed the first level completely, and 1 cave left on the second. But I've barely touched the third, except to get the Pikmin. About 25 or so days in and only need 1500 Pokos now, but theres so much I've still got to do, so I'm glad you can continue after getting the 10g back. Plus I'm still looking for that elusive Co-Op token... Hows everyone else going?

Still on Frontier cae, level six so far. Just having trouble getting all the Pikmin over the bloody massive water gap that's there. Oh and is there any special reason for having control over that baby bulbore?

Normaly if you chuck 4 or 5 on it, the bulbax gets dizzy. Which leaves it open to a major attack.
