Following the latest Nintendo Direct earlier in the month, New Play Control! Pikmin released on the European Wii U eShop as a Wii download. In North America, the game is coming this week.
We usually don’t hear about Virtual Console/Wii download games until Wednesday, but Nintendo’s website already confirms that New Play Control! Pikmin is arriving in the states in just a couple of days. You’ll be able to pick it up starting on September 29 – this Thursday.
Here’s an overview:
“Captain Olimar has crash-landed on a strange world, and his only hope for survival lies with odd creatures called Pikmin. Set out and explore the strange, lush planet before Olimar’s life support runs out! Command up to 100 Pikmin, swarm predators, and haul critical parts back to your ship—all by using the Wii Remote.”
And a brief trailer:
New Play Control! Pikmin will cost $19.99 on the Wii U eShop.
