Summary: PIKMIN!
Comment: I just really love the Pikmin game. It is so much fun with all the little aliens. It does get harder as you go and is great!

Summary: Pikmin
Comment: Pikmin is one of the first games that came out for Nintendo Gamecube. I remember playing it at my neighbor's house and it was instantly one of my favorite games.
It is about seven years later, and owning only a Sega Genesis and an Xbox, I decided that I had to own the Cube. The first game I bought was Pikmin!
In Pikmin you play as a very small man named Captain Olimar. His ship crash lands on a planet (Earth, which is never exactly stated but is pretty obvious for numerous reasons). Olimar figures he will die there because important parts to his ship were scattered everywhere and he only has 30 days before his space suit fails and the poisonous oxygen that permeates the planet kills him. Just when it looks like all hope is lost, he stumbles upon a red object that, once he approached, appeared to come alive.
The red object he deems an Onion, and out of this onion comes a seed that implants itself into the ground where seconds after a small sprout shoots up. Olimar picks the sprout and that is where the first Pikmin is discovered. It isn't long before Olimar realizes these Pikmin could help him search and gather up the pieces of his ship, and the hunting begins!
There are three different kinds of Pikmin and a huge load of enemies looking to eat them. The red Pikmin, the very first Pikmin you acquire, is the strongest out of the three and they are immune to fire. The yellow Pikmin can be thrown very high and far and they can use bomb rocks, which can be found inside tin cans or skulls, to defeat enemies or to knock down rock walls. Last, the blue Pikmin, can go in water without dying.
Pikmin is a great game to play and I will continue to enjoy it's awesomeness.

Summary: So fun, so cute
Comment: This is a game among games. You control some plant-like little cute creatures. They look up to you for leadership. You provide it and try to lead them to their independence. Fantastic game for all ages.

Summary: Buying a present for an 11-year old.
Comment: Pikmin was the requested present for an 11-year-old friend. The product was delivered on time and as promised. Good job.

Summary: You need some practice!
Comment: What's weird about Nintendo is that they made a game with a time limit. Pikmin is really fun but with a time limit. The graphics make the game beautiful, otherwise the gameplay is excellent. Sure it can get repetive, but other than that it's really fun! I would strangely recomend practice for people who think this game is hard. So I would suggest to rent this game or buy the sequel for practice.
The Story
A Capt. by the name of Olimar, just came back from the worst intersolar vacation. While he was drinking tea to calm his nerves he was struck by a meteor. He crashed landed on a strange backwater planet, thus meeting the Pikmin.
The Pikmin
What would be Pikmin without Pikmin?! Nintendo sure did make a cute little alien thing. Though it is sad to hear the cry when the die, and see the coloured ghosts fly upwards, I still enjoy the little things.
The Enemies
Enemies are the backup in the game, some are hard others are easy. Others are stupid (going in water and killing themselves). Pikmin hate the enemies, but Capt. Olimar is doing them a favor to kill the beasties and breed Pikmin!!
Overall
Overall the game is excellent, even though the time limit may be the worst asset of the game, it's pretty good once you collect tons of the ship parts.
