Pikmin 3 is fun. In fact it's a great game and Its on of the best on the Wii U. The graphics hold up great a decade later and the environment is great. While the first 2 games aimed for a weird otherworldly vibe with its music and graphics, this game takes a more luscious and cozy vibe that I like.

Unfortunately I have grips. The controls for starts. The game supports Wiimote controls but you can't use the map for some stupid reason. You have to use the gamepad if you want the map which is vital in this game. They were pushing the gamepad way to hard with this one. The controls for the gamepad are tolerable, but I really wish I could've done without it.
The caves are gone which I know to some people is a bonus but I personally loved the caves in 2. They also removed white and purple pikmin which is a shame but the rock and winged pikmin are fun replacements.
The game was also just too easy. By the end of the game I had over 60 juice left so there was no stress or motive to perform my best unlike pikmin 1 and 2 in some cases.

But.. it's pikmin and I love pikmin I would love to 100% this game on switch but I hear it's expensive nowadays. But if you ever find this game out in the wiled it's not a bad pickup at all in fact I'd think it's a good starter if you want to get into the series.

It’s almost 3 am, I’m listening to Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge by My Chemical Romance, AND I’m forcing myself to write about Pikmin 3. I don’t remember jackshit about this game. They went and unOlimar’d my pikmin. He got absorbed by a pile of goo and some dude named Alph and his 2 bad bitches gotta save his ass. They even exiled the purple pikmin for being too inhumane to use in warfare. And they gave us a pile of rocks to replace him? Dude it’s a massive downgrade but I guess I can work with rock pikmin. Rock pikmin are silly but just aren’t hardened by war like the purple pikmin. It’s possibly for these rocky fellas to one day become a combat veteran, but for now they have much to learn. Louie’s back again, he fucking mugs you in this game. They never believed me when I said he was a villain but no morally good sane man tries to eat the Mamuta. He fucking ate a Man-At-Legs. Bitch that thing is barely even organic material it’s some fucked up cyborg with a machine gun attached to it and he cooked it and made it’s oil into a gravy. This man ate metal and drank oil for a meal, he should not be trusted. The plot of pikmin 3 is like, somehow a planet ran out of food so Alph and gang gotta lock the fuck in and go scour the universe for oranges and fucking grapes. Cool thing about Pikmin is that all these guys have families which is sick. Olimar got a bitch wife and kids, Charlie who I forgot to mention is a middle aged man who lives alone and owns a duck which is honestly real as fuck, and I think Louie has a family but he might have traded them in so he could eat more bulborb meat I’m not sure. I think I talked about Louie more than the actual protagonists. Be an Alph, not a Louie kids.

This Game, is incredibly lick able.
I can see what everything in this game, especially the enemies and just imagine running my tongue against it
Amazing

[Lickability Rating : GET THAT IN MY MOUTH DUDE]

Why is this game so fucking pretty for the Wii U?
