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.

Since yesterday evening this has been sadly outshadowed by the return of my Xbox Live connection. I will come back to it very soon.

Ahar, I haven't been at my GC/Xbox since Friday, but man, if there's one game I want to play, it's this. WHERE is the co-op token? That'll make it complete.

Me and my friend have this thing about the 'bulbordbs', we call them chickens (don't ask). Anyway, down one of the caves is that GIANT caterpillar/chicken thing. All we saw in the dim light and through our mini sumo-Pikmin army, was the hulking great side of a sleeping monster!

We screamed and ran.

And it’s funny when some get stuck on your friend and he's running around unable to call his Pikmin slowly dieing

In 2P-Battle you can just abandon the hunt for marbles and just build huge armies for beating each other's Pikmin up :D Trés fun.

What with a slow motion replay as they kick the bugs around?

I would love to see fighting Pikmin.

You could teach them different martial arts and watch with a cheesy grin whilst they pummel those fat bugs to a pulp.

Amazing how you can differentiate between that little fella' and the rest of your Purple Pikmin herd :P Something for Pikmin 3 - individual Pikmin customisation :)

I played 2P-Battle last night too for the first time, me and a mate went through all the levels in the end as it turned out to be such a laugh.. although I think I lost all but about 3 of them.. cheeky bellend kept nicking my marble while I was off huntin'.
