i never had a cube so until this year i hadn't played any pikmin games. I really enjoyed NPC pikmin 1 and really want to play pikmin 2 but i really like the pointer controls... should i wait for NPC or try to find a used copy of pikmin 2?

anyone know why there isnt a NA release date yet for this game?

Nintendo will release it when there's nothing else to release. NPC titles are filler product.....

The original is actually really good, you don't need the Wii controls for this game. If you have a gamecube controller (or can borrow one) you should just go ahead and get the original.

Yes but the Wii controls are much better even though the GC works great to. Yeah I picked up Pikmin NPC too recently cuz I missed out on it. I'm pretty sure they will announce something around the time Pikmin 3 is coming.

Wasn't there also Chibi Robo NPC planned ?

Well, I think they panned the whole NPC idea, after they released Metroid Prime as a trilogy and not NPC anymore...

I'm sure we will find out what happened to it in the coming year, i have the original but one of my buddies is really eager to play it this time around since he missed it the first time.

hopefully they let it rest, and are putting all efforts into Pikmin 3

Why do they need to rest? The game has already been made and distributed in English regions. All the game needs to come out in the states is NTSC codeing, which isn't hard at all.

Yeah, I was actually thinking about getting the first one recently, until I thought of the possibility that they could be doing a trilogy package with them. Anybody know how much Metroid Prime Trilogy sold? If its sales were strong enough, maybe that's the reason they haven't released it.

Since I believe that Pikmin 2 is the greatest game ever made, I too am peeved at the absence of this NPC version in theAmericas. If Nintendo does release a Trilogy package, all will be forgiven!

Pikmin is fantastic, but I would nominate Pikmin 2 for the most improved sequel in video gaming history!

even if that coding could take, lets say 30 minutes ( i know it wouldn't) i'd rather that 30 minutes go towards Pikmin 3 being even greater, and sooner in my wii
