Pikmin by Nintendo is about a dude named Captain Olimer,who's spaceship lands on a far away planet inhabited by Pikmin,Toads and other wacky creatures. Olimar must work with Pikmin to get all his ship pieces back. He needs 30 ship parts. Now I'll tell you a little about the Pimin. There are 4 kinds of Pikmin. Only three types work with Captain Olimar. The types that work with captain are Blue,yellow and red. Blues can swim,yellows can throw rock bombs,and reds are very fast. Purples are th fourth type. They are rare,but deadly. They will fight you and your team. Buy this good game.

Another Hit for Nintendo

I have to be honest. At first I thought this game was a waste of everyone's time, but i was wrong. I was fooled by the way the pikmin and the little space man was drawn. But now i know that i was completely wrong. This game is great! It is definitely going to be the first in my library. I know what you are saying, "he hasn't even played it and he's writing a review!". You don't have to play this to know it is great, just from watching the demo's and the commercials you know it will be a hit. From what i have heard, the control is easy and it is a very fun game, so if it looks great and is easy to control, plus fun, then you should definitely consider buying this. This is a great one for kids that will excercise their minds (some adults could use it too, way more than any kid I know). So if you are looking for a game to go with that new gamecube, get Pikmin, you won't regret it.

Read this review and see how good PIKMIN really is!

Pikmin is a hard-core, fun, thrilling, and most of all a worth your money game. Pikmin Mixs up fun and strategy in a disk small enough to fit in your palm! Only one person on earth could do this and thats the creator of Zelda, Mario, and the best game yet, Pikmin! Whether your a parent or a kid and you have a Game Cube this should be number 1 on your list!

Short but good.

First of all, this game is FUN. Collecting three colors of little alien pikmin to kill enemies and get ship parts is FUN. But, there are a few problems. First of all, only 15 minutes a day? Yes. There is only 15 minutes each day and only 30 days. Why? It made me more hesistent to play this game. It was as if 1 wrong move and it was the end. Be prepared to repeat days LOT. Other than that, it is pretty good.

Awesome Game

Pikmin is a game with great graphics and gameplay. The story is that a man named Olimar crashlands on a planet with creatures called Pikmin. Olimar can call them to him, throw them at enemies, make them wait for him, destroy walls, build bridges, and carry dead enemies and pellets to the ship. The only problem is that the game is too short, because he only has 30 days to collect the parts of his ship. Besides that, Its a great Gamecube game.

I have been playing this game for years. It is a great game and I am glad I bought it. There are great graphics and a very creative form of battle. You play as a 2cm tall alien named Olimar from planet Hocotate and you crash on a distant plaet (earth). The goal is to collect your 30 ship parts which have been scattered all over earth. All seems hopeless when suddenly you find a small spacecraft. It resembles an onion so that is what Olimar names them. Suddenly, the onion springs into the air and sprouts "legs." Then, a red seed pops out. This is a Pikmin seed. You then have to bring food back to the onion using the Pikmin. As you bring food to the onion, more seeds pop out. Eventually, you find your ship's engine. This allows you to go to the next area: the Forest of Hope. There' you find a yellow onion. Out pops a yellow Pikmin seed. These Pikmin can carry small bombs to break down walls or defeat enemies. After finding a number of ship parts, you can go to a cavern in the forest called the Forest Navel. You find a blue onion submerged in a small pond there. When you approach it, it jumps up and spits out a blue Pikmin seed. These blue pikmin can actually breath underwater! After that, you have to find the rest of your ship parts to go to the Distant Spring. This area has nothing to offer but strong enemies and ship parts. There are about 10 parts here! After finding them all, you have to go to the final level: the Final Trial. Here, you have to fight a huge enemy called the Emporer Bulbax. After killing it, it spits out a piggy bank. after carrying this back to your ship, you are ready to take off. Olimar bids the Pikmin goodbye and flys off in his ship back to Hocotate. It sounds easy but there is a catch, you have to beat the game in 30 in-game days. The days last about 15 minutes so you should be able to get at least one part a day. If there is anything I learned from this game, it's how to lead an army into war against giant, mutant beetles.

You need some practice!

What's weird about Nintendo is that they made a game with a time limit. Pikmin is really fun but with a time limit. The graphics make the game beautiful, otherwise the gameplay is excellent. Sure it can get repetive, but other than that it's really fun! I would strangely recomend practice for people who think this game is hard. So I would suggest to rent this game or buy the sequel for practice.

The Story
A Capt. by the name of Olimar, just came back from the worst intersolar vacation. While he was drinking tea to calm his nerves he was struck by a meteor. He crashed landed on a strange backwater planet, thus meeting the Pikmin.

The Pikmin
What would be Pikmin without Pikmin?! Nintendo sure did make a cute little alien thing. Though it is sad to hear the cry when the die, and see the coloured ghosts fly upwards, I still enjoy the little things.

The Enemies
Enemies are the backup in the game, some are hard others are easy. Others are stupid (going in water and killing themselves). Pikmin hate the enemies, but Capt. Olimar is doing them a favor to kill the beasties and breed Pikmin!!

Overall
Overall the game is excellent, even though the time limit may be the worst asset of the game, it's pretty good once you collect tons of the ship parts.

I was "Pik"ed!

For this item, I'm a little disappointed. I ordered the Pikmin 2 game, but was sent the Pikmin game. When I went back to the Amazon site, the page was gone. Since we were on vacation at the time, didn't even notice that it was confirmed incorrectly. Because Amazon is sometimes "Amazonian" to approach, trying to rectify it was useless. As for the game, my children play it and think it's pretty good, though they really wanted the Pikmin 2 game. Oh well!
