Pikmin 3 Deluxe – Nintendo Switch

As a collector it is incredibly important that my games that I get are factory sealed. This exactly was this, and for being the deluxe edition at a decent price was just want I needed. I recommend buying from this seller if their other games are also factory sealed.

I’m a big fan of the pikmin series and I’ve played all of them and this one was extremely fun to play with a friend.

I would give it a full 5 stars but they really didn’t add that much to the game. The biggest thing was co-op campaign mode which they clearly had support for in Pikmin 3 on the wii-U so I can’t give them points for including a feature that should have already been there.

They added a mini-story about Olimar and Louie which was basically just a few added missions from mission mode. And they MIGHT have added more missions, it’s been a long time since I played the original and I’m not actually sure about that.

Everything else about the game is pretty much the same. It looks like the majority of their effort was spent porting it over to the switch. The controls are a bit more confusing without the wii-U pad but they made them work for the most part.

Since they didn’t really add that much more content, I would’ve expected more quality of life changes but there are still quite a few issues.
– Dividing pikmin up between both players in co-op mode is pretty difficult. We were always accidentally stealing each others pikmin, especially during boss fights.
– If you pull a player into your squad, they follow behind but it’s pretty janky and they keep making annoying sounds.
– You can chop the monsters by yourself but in this version, the chop doesn’t always seem to activate.
– The pikmin desync sometimes, where they just stop following you for a few seconds. This seems to happen pretty frequently in mission mode.
– Blue pikmin will shoot off in random directions out of the water when trying to fight enemies.
– All pikmin shoot off piles of buried stuff rather than starting to dig sometimes.
– When locking onto a monster, purple pikmin tend to land right in front of them and get eaten rather than latching on. And the squash effect is just gone now?

I also would have liked being able to choose between the characters in the various modes. Like maybe being able to choose Olimar or Louie in subsequent story playthroughs or something.

All in all I still recommend this to anyone and everyone. Pikmin is a fantastic series and Pikmin 3 is probably the best addition so far. I only deducted a star because the “Deluxe” version wasn’t all that “Deluxe”

Had an absolute whale of a time playing this, but it’s about a fifth or a sixth as long as it should be. I was able to completely finish it in a few nights of casual play. I literally said, “Wait, that’s it?” aloud when the credits started rolling. I’d really love the ability to unlock all of the pikmin colors (they only give you five in this one) and I’d love to have more areas to explore and puzzles to solve. Good game, but wait for it to be on sale, because you’re not really buying a full-length experience.

Mi hijo trajo el nombre de pikmin a la casa, no se de donde lo supo, pero desde entonces él a estado buscando imagenes de pikmin en internet y las dibujaba. También, hacia imprimia las imagenes, las recortaba y realizaba juegos con 4 niveles. Él colocaba las imagenes en el piso y trataba de derribarlas con una canica desde cierta distancia. Pues se ha estado portando bien por todo un par de meses asi que decidí comprarle no solo pikmin 3 si no tambien pikmin 4. El 5 llega hasta en julio. El tres le llegó ahorita y anda super feliz, tanto que se le sale su corazoncito de felicidad. Ya anda jugandolo. Aparte de que se anda portando bien tambien me anda pidiendo frutas ya que en el juego los caracteres recolectan frutas y a él se le antoja. Mi niño tiene 8 años. Recomiendo que se fijen si es pikmin para nintendo, wii o lo que sea que ustedes necesiten. Todo super bien con la compra, tiempo y calidad.
