Product Description
Review
In Pikmin 2, the feature-packed sequel to Nintendo's original Pikmin adventure (famously inspired by Mario creator Shigeru Miyamoto's back garden), players can once more enjoy the earthly delights of germination. Captain Olimar, the astronaut hero of the original game, makes a welcome return and sets about clearing some bad debts with the aid of the titular Pikmin, which grow from the soil when planted. In microcosm, this is a strategy game, but there's more to it than that: although there are strategic and puzzle elements, the overriding theme is one of action, which makes for an equally exciting and challenging game. Two-player modes are new additions in Pikmin 2, and these arrive in both cooperative and versus varieties. The use of a split-screen here works particularly well. Throw in a few extra flavours of Pikmin (white and purple complement the original's spectrum of characters) and Olimar's new, playable sidekick Louie, and you have a complete and thorough sequel to a modern classic. --Jonti Davies
Manufacturer's Description
Captain Olimar returns in Pikmin 2 to marshal new Pikmin in a wild, open-ended adventure--and this time he brought help. The company he works for is going bankrupt, so to save it, Olimar must salvage the treasure buried all over the planet. His company's debt is a whopping 10,000 pokos--but if Olimar and his assistant can delegate their work well, they should be able to erase that debt in no time. Of course, they'll need the help of the Pikmin to do that. Alternately control Olimar and his assistant as you command your Pikmin to defeat enemies, propagate more Pikmin, collect precious doodads and solve puzzles. With no time limit, new colours of Pikmin and two-player cooperative play, Pikmin 2 improves on the original in every way.
