The best Pikmin game to speedrun for sure! The gamepad usage is actually good and makes “dandori” lots of fun.

However, the game is pretty easy and makes most of the difficultyhave to come from self imposed challenges like beating the game fast.

But still, it’s a good game

Personal favorite of the series, time management and efficiency return

Pikmin 3 is a delightful blend of real-time strategy and puzzle-solving with a heavy dose of Nintendo charm. You command three explorers stranded on a lush alien planet, enlisting the aid of adorable plant-like Pikmin to overcome obstacles, battle whimsical creatures, and collect resources. With its diverse Pikmin types, cleverly designed environments, and a focus on efficient time management, Pikmin 3 is a satisfyingly unique adventure filled with both frantic action and serene moments of discovery.

My favorite in the series. Just incredible.

Excellent video game. Using the a wii remote + the gamepad, the game just feels so good. Being able to do nice and fluent movements with wii remote and then being able manage all my captains using the gamepad feels natural and intuitive and is probably the second best use of the gamepad behind mario maker. I didn't expect to enjoy the gameplay as much as I did, I expected it to be either to stressful or to laid back, but it found a great middle ground. The atmosphere and world definitely make you feel small and isolated, but also almost at home where your meant to be. Anyways, this is by no means a perfect game but its near flawless.


My only regret is that I haven't played this game sooner

The atmosphere and gameplay loop make this game so fun no matter how stressful the time management is! I am so glad this was my first pikmin game because it only makes me want to check out the other games more <3

Beat this on both Wii U and Switch. Still holds up after all these years.

Die Bosse sind teils irgendwie echt cool und dann wieder abfuck. Hat dennoch hart bock gemacht, controls waren echt gut nach Gewöhnung.

Way too easy of a Pikmin game. The time limit is back, but with one exception, the player adjusted time limit serves no threat. The game feels the need to constantly add cutscenes that take far too much time, especially compared to the silent and eerie nature of its two predecessors.
