The boxart for the first game's New Play Control! version.
New Play Control! Pikmin is a re-release of Pikmin in the New Play Control! range of video-games. It was released in 2008 in Japan and 2009 everywhere else, and features a number of changes to the original game.
Changes
- The game now has widescreen support.
- A new control scheme allows control of the cursor by pointing at the screen with the Wii controller. Because of that, the player can now call the Pikmin at a greater distance.
- An updated save system allows the player to restart play from any previous day. Thus allowing the player to fix the Libra Glitch.
- Some sound effects are played by the Wii remote speaker.
- Enemy sound effects, 'voices' in particular, are different, notably more 'squeaky'.
- Only the "tails" of Pikmin spirits are blue, rather than being completely blue as they are in the Gamecube version.
- Yellow Pikmin holding bomb-rocks no longer drop them when whistled to. In addition, they will automatically try to run out of range of a planted bomb-rock's explosion. They will also throw them at enemies.
- The Enemy Reel is presented differently. The Enemy Reel plays as usual, but around the edges of the screen, five-petaled flowers are falling, in addition to what looks like snowflakes towards the end of the Enemy Reel.
- Pikmin last longer when on fire or drowning.
- The carrying numbers are like in the Pikmin 2, which means they show the color of the onion they are carried to.
