As someone whose first experience with Pikmin came in the form of the Wii version of the first game, the sheer announcement of this was music to my ears. A version of the classic Pikmin games that I could play without the wonky Wii controls? Sign me up! And thankfully, I'm glad to have been signed up, because now I can see what made these so popular in the first place.

The re-release is rather barebones and doesn't have any real new content to entice longtime fans, but if you're looking to have these games on a modern system (or you just want to have the whole Pikmin series on one platform)...at a $50 price point, you can't go wrong.
