The boxart for the first game's New Play Control! version.

The New Play Control! (Wii de Asobu in Japan and previously called Let's Play On Wii) range of video games is a collection of GameCube titles ported to the Nintendo Wii, with their controls altered for play on the newer console. During a Nintendo press conference in October 2008, the games were announced, along with the details that the range will include the two Pikmin games.[1] The re-release of Pikmin in Japan was 25th December 2008, and release dates for North America and Europe are the 11th March and 6th February 2009[2] respectively. Currently, Pikmin 2's re-release is expected to arrive in 2009.
