About The Game
>A new adventure blossoms!
Pikmin are back for yet another grand mission in Pikmin 4 for Nintendo Switch! These tiny, plant-like creatures inhabit a mysterious planet. Grow, pluck and command them, as you traverse this new world with their help.
What are Pikmin?
Pikmin come in a variety of shapes, sizes and colours! For instance, Red Pikmin don’t sweat fiery obstacles, Blue Pikmin are great swimmers, and the newly discovered Ice Pikmin keep things cool by freezing enemies and the environment around them.
Individual Pikmin may be small and vulnerable, but together they can tackle even the biggest of challenges! Use their miniature might and some strategy to overcome everything in your way on this strange, new planet.
An adorable canine companion
Oatchi, the Space Dog, will also join you on your adventure. This dependable companion can smash obstacles, transport heavy objects and carry Pikmin on his back through your travels. Together, no challenge is too big for these adventurers!

hyped for this!
Oh my god it's Pikmin 4!
Still need to play this series I'm missing out
I am glad these games were released on the VC, I bought all 3 on the eShop. It is a great franchise, and even though it is unlike the others, I am looking forward to Pikmin for 3DS.
I !"#¤ love Pikmin.
Back to happy times with this one for sure.
Wait, I knew about Pikmin 4 coming for 3ds this year, but pikmin switch in 2017? Wow.
This may need to be altered. I believe that the new Pikmin that Miyamoto referred to that time was actually "Hey" Pikmin.
About time. Finally, now get us Animal Crossing!
I don't think it will be 2020...I say 2019
