This thread has been linked to the game 'Pikmin'.
I'm a bit sick of Hitman 2 and Harvest Moon at moment, along with my other currently-played games, so I decided to give Pikmin a quick go and really rekindled my love of the thin, odd looking plants.
I never really remember Pikmin being as good as it is. I always liked it, but returning it seems wonderful, and more of a Nintendo game than Wind Waker and Sunshine. Building up 100's of slaves, racing against the clock to safety... I never really realised how great this is, and despite being a bit sceptical about the 2nd, I'm really looking forward to it now.
RBS is just plain wrong. Not liking this is foolish, it's a true Nintendo masterpiece and, in terms of gameplay, almost faultless (bar a few niggles when trying to seperate Pikmin.)
This is why a bought a GameCube.

It's a great little game, from what I've played.. which is about 3/4 of it. Can't wait for the second game, what with the latest Famitsu scores.
One thing, I'm probably being dumb because of the heat, but what/who is RBS?

Fool indeed, 'tis a classic.
I wonder when Pikmin 3 is coming out. Miyamoto has mentioned it..

What!
Harvest moon 2 is ace!
I've just completed Pikmin as well, and for the first time too. Before I would play it up until around the 4th world and then get bored, but this time I stuck with it, and eventually completed it in 25 days. Although the game isn't long, it has incredible replay value. I'll complete it again sometime. Probably during Summer.
The second time I completed it I think I managed 19 days. The last boss rocks.
Pikmin is criminally underrated, but it looks like the second time round it might get the respect it deserves (well, judging by the incredible Famitsu scores).
I also forgot about the rocking music at the start and yet another nod to the GameCube's project name, Dolphin. This is classic.
