Each colour of Pikmin has its own unique skill, be it swimming, bomb carrying or the ability to withstand extreme heat - so it was up to you to gather and utilise the correct Pikmin for the task at hand, with the game quickly revealing a depth of gameplay far beyond what its 'cute' appearance might suggest. After pulling them out of the ground, the Pikmin would huddle around wherever you went - and if you wanted to attack one of the many giant enemies that roam the landscape, break something down, or pick something up, all you had to do was chuck them at it, and they'd get straight to work. Initially buried beneath the ground were the titular Pikmin: small plant-like creatures with varying abilities who seem more than willing to help Olimar on his quest, and will follow your orders to the letter. Being a tiny guy, though, Olimar could never manage to lug the giant parts around on his own - so it's a good job he wasn't alone on the planet. The original Pikmin, released in 2002, told the tale of the diminutive space-farer Captain Olimar, who had to recover scattered spaceship components after crash landing on an uncharted planet.

Having skipped the system entirely though, Pikmin 3's development was shifted to the Wii U in order to take advantage of the system's HD graphics - as well as its touch screen enabled GamePad. Fans of the series have been waiting a long time for this new addition to the family, as game designer Shigeru Miyamoto first suggested that a new instalment was on the cards way back in 2007, in the heyday of the Wii. The game is a follow-up to two previous Pikmin titles, which were originally released for Nintendo's GameCube, before being given a re-release on the Wii to take advantage of the ease of the Wii remote control scheme. Last week's short but sweet Nintendo Direct broadcast devoted a few minutes to the game, showing off plenty of new gameplay footage, and providing info on the game's story, characters and control schemes - and it's already looking like a winner. With its release finally (finally!) within sight, Nintendo have been starting to reveal some juicy details about the upcoming Wii U strategy title, Pikmin 3.
