 ... console you already owned), as playing Pikmin REALLY made me want a Gamecube! In Pikmin you play the part of Olimar, an astronaut who has crashed on a strange planet with an atmosphere of poisonous oxygen. His space suit can only sustain him for a short while so he needs to find the missing ship parts and repair his ship ASAP. Very shortly after you begin you will spot a strange looking red thing that looks a bit like a giant red onion with legs which throws out a seed. Before long a curious looking sprout will emerge fr...more

I first played Pikmin, (a super cute Gamecube game), at a close friends house years ago, (it must have been 2002ish). I really loved it at the time and I've wanted a Gamecube ever since but for one reason or another I never got one.

Needless to say I couldn't wait to set it up so Boxing Day morning I was up with the larks, (or maybe robins), and playing Pikmin. ****** Now for those of you who don't know the Gamecube was a little cubic games console, ...

He is the man behind such gaming icons like Donkey Kong, Link and, of course, our favourite fat plumber Mario. Pikmin sees him taking a slightly different approach into his normal gaming fare and he explores the genre of real time strategy but adds his own personal style. ...

Notice the reference to Popstars tagline? My humour really is wasted..... Ever since I saw a few pictures of this game last year, I was drooling in anticipation and that was just at the sight of something that may not of been. It's release in Japan was a huge success, quickly being heralded as a classic. The mastermind behind Mario and Zelda, Shigeru Miyamoto, was behind this game. He watched the insects in the garden of his new house (a very rare thing in Japanese cities), mainly ants, working hard together, gathering food and things. Something in his head clicked and the concept for Pikmin was born. And thank god for those ants, ...
