EDIT2: Sorry, I keep finding all these good things, here are the actual controls on the Pikmin 1 UK website[http://www.nintendo.co.uk/NOE/en_GB/games/wii/pikmin_new_play_control_11236.html]

:Someone brought up that X-Play video before. Pikmin 3 is not the same thing as the New Play Control, and that clip was just Pikmin 1. He says himself that there are "no further details," obviously meaning no videos either. Thanks for the cite explaining the controls though. Controls should be mentioned on the article if they're not already. {{user:Jimbo Jambo/sig}} 22:05, 12 February 2009 (UTC)
 
== GOOD NEWS ==
A quick search for "Pikmin" for News on Google brought me to IGN where I found out that Pikmin 2's Wiimake now has its website up in Japanese! So I looked at it and this looks to be the best edition of any Pikmin game yet (until Pikmin 3, which I hope is at least as good as Pikmin 2). The website revealed a few things to me about the wiimake:
*Widescreen, like original Pikmin remake
*Generally same controls as original Pikmin remake
*Sprays are used with the (1) and (2) buttons
*Graphics look even sharper and more colorful than original Pikmin 2
 
The bad news is... I can't seem to find any differences other than that. In other words, we probably won't be seeing remixed dungeons or anything like that. I could be wrong. I'd love to be wrong about that! Either way, I didn't even end up renting the remake of Pikmin 1. I've decided to wait it out until I can get Pikmin 2, so I'll be playing other games until then. Pikmin 2 may be the only remade gamecube game I buy unless they remake Wind Waker. Also, according to IGN there are some other interesting hidden features involving the title screen and special music that is supposed to play in the background if you hold down the (1) and (2) buttons- that's interesting, and it makes me wonder if they did anything extra with multiplayer features as well...
 
I could ask for nothing more than a co-op adventure mode. [[User:Portal-Kombat|<span style="color:blue">Portal-</span>]][[User_talk:Portal-Kombat|<span style="color:orange">Kombat</span>]]
 
:I'd expect them to change nothing other than what you listed, since that's all they've done for the first game's Wii version.  The new stuff will all be in Pikmin 3 and Pikmin 3 only.  As for other 'remade' GCN games it'll be worth getting, Metroid Prime should be great with Corruption's control scheme.{{User:Greenpickle/sig}}
 
Well, at least it makes Pikmin 3 even more of a good thing to wait for, and until then I'm going to be revisiting my favorite games, as well as MOTHER 3 for 100% completion and this Pikmin 2 remake. On another note, the remake of Metroid Prime has a really epic cover. And I don't even like Metroid that much (save for Super Metroid!)

== Short Note: DS Pikmin ==
Nothing definite, but recently on Cubed3 I read that Nintendo sees that Pikmin could work on the DS in its own unique way. Nothing official- and as far as I know, it seems like Pikmin 3 is very likely going to be released for Wii. I'm fine with that and I personally don't want a DS Pikmin. [[User:Portal-Kombat|<span style="color:blue">Portal-</span>]][[User_talk:Portal-Kombat|<span style="color:orange">Kombat</span>]]
 
:SH: As Nintendo DS has its own unique advantages, it would be possible to create a gameplay-control mechanism which would be good for and unique to Pikmin.
 
:That, I assume. I personally don't like the idea much of a Pikmin DS. You could do some stuff with the controls, yes, but the atmosphere; the flora, the enemies, all the surroundings were a major aspect to me in the game. I really hope they get their shit together and design the grpahics well. Along with gameplay, of course; but even if they gave me the exact same objectives as in Pikmin 2, I'd enjoy it immensly.--{{User:Prezintenden/sig}}
 
Same here. For the cube, Pikmin has some really nice graphics. Especially considering how it came out at the beginning of the console's lifespan! [[User:Portal-Kombat|<span style="color:blue">Portal-</span>]][[User_talk:Portal-Kombat|<span style="color:orange">Kombat</span>]]
 
*start specualtion on other wiimakes*I agree, but I think that other games should be put
into wii format, like... Mario Kart: DD,
Mario party 4 (or 5 whichever has the vehicle destruction derby), maybe a little Mario Golf
toadstool tour (pikmin cameo btw). (sorry, just finished playing a 3 hour nonstop play of
Tom Clancy HAWX.)*end speculation* I think there should be a bit of heart mending if Pikmin 1 wiimake is bad...
NO WAIT I TAKE IT BACK! ahh...memories. still, it was a VERY good idea on Nintendo's part
to add the return to day feature, you know, when you screw up on day 8, but keep playing
till day 12, and you wanna play day 8 over, you can go back now! w00t! [[User:PikminTy|ReplayTy]] 07:01, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
 
I seriously doubt they'd ever do it, but I'd buy a wiimake of Zelda Wind Waker, especially if there was different content. [[User:Portal-Kombat|<span style="color:blue">Portal-</span>]][[User_talk:Portal-Kombat|<span style="color:orange">Kombat</span>]]

== Just a Little Something ==
A friend of mine went on vacation to Tokyo over Spring Break! Nice thing about this is that he got the chance to play the wiimake of Pikmin 2 and said that it was really good. Also, he bought MOTHER 3 but that's not specifically Pikmin related. Still awesome though. Anyways, the remake may not change much if at all besides the controls but it's still something to look forwards to.  {{User:Portal-Kombat/sig}}
 
== New Play Control: Pikmin 2 Website Up ==
The European website is up, and the game will be out there tomorrow! The presentation looks top notch, with the graphics even sleeker than the GCN version. I scoured the site quite thoroughly and discovered that they've also apparently improved the camera's range- it was fine to be, but now it might even be better. Also, I think it is definitely worthy to mention that the Yellow Wollywog was this time identified as the Yellow WOLLYHOP in the Piklopedia! Is this just some PAL quirk that I don't know about or something totally different? It's like those commercials where the announcer calls the Bulborb a "Chappie."Ugh. {{User:Portal-Kombat/sig}}
