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 think the music is charming, nothing amazing but suits the mood.

Played the first mission of the first one today.

Pretty grippingly addictive and very playable. Shame about the music.

AJ you shouldn't have said anything just hope you get both.

I got this today as well (it was only dispatched this morning - the post has been super supr super quick for the first time ever!), and it's absolutely brilliant. I love the way the purple ones wobble along it's great, and when you see the huge second level stretched out before you, it's just amazing and I couldn't wait to get down there and start solving some puzzles. Brilliant, brilliant game.

We all know you're just trying to cover up your love for flowers, gardening, and being a general pansy, AJ.

:-P

Hmm, Pikmin 2 came today. Despite the fact I changed order to Pro Evo 4 on Monday.

Except, SR don't seem to have acknowledged my change of claim. If I was that bothered, I'd make an effort to send it back and demand my Pro Evo. But I can't be bothered.

Meh.
