New Play Control: Pikmin - Nintendo Wii - DE

After crashing on a strange, unexplored planet, Captain Olimar must collect thirty missing parts of his spaceship before his life support runs out in thirty days and he succumbs to the planet's hostile atmosphere. Fortunately, the Pikmin, a plant/insect species native to the planet, are there to help him. Olimar must gather and lead the Pikmin in this real-time strategy game to collect the missing parts of his ship whilst battling the planet's strange and sometimes hostile flora and fauna. The Pikmin come in three varieties, each with a special ability. Red Pikmin are immune to fire, blue Pikmin can swim and yellow Pikmin can be thrown far. In addition to Story mode, there is also a Challenge mode which is unlocked after all Pikmin types have been discovered in Story mode. The goal in this mode is to grow as many Pikmin as possible in a single day.
