The '''''New Play Control!''''' ({{j|Wiiであそぶ|Wii de Asobu|Let's Play On Wii}}) range of video games is a collection of [[GameCube]] titles ported to the [[Wii]], with their [[controls]] altered for play on the newer console.

Oddly, North America never received the ''New Play Control!'' version of ''Pikmin 2''. Instead, it received a delayed ''[[Nintendo Selects]]'' version, devoid of ''New Play Control!'' branding, in 2012. There is no difference between the two versions, however. The Korean Wii release of ''Pikmin'' also lacks ''New Play Control!'' branding.

A downside is that because the {{button|gc|c}} is gone, so swarming is harder.
