Nintendo says ‘It seems like Pikmin is perfect for 3D’

It looks like there is reason to suspect that the nextPikmingame could end up in 3D. In a recent roundtable discussion with Shigeru Miyamoto (Pikmin‘s creator), Shigesato Itoi (Earthbound‘s creator), Satoru Iwata (Nintendo President), the gang were all checking out the 3DS. Itoi was in the middle of trying out the console for the first time, when he suddenly exclaimed- At first I figured they were just talking about the briefPikmin3DS still-picture demo (seen below) that was shown at E3, but “scurrying around”?...

Bummer Last Friday, we told you that “Steep‘s free Alaska add-on shreds the gnar next week.” That was exciting for a few reasons. First and probably most pertinent: free DLC is almost always good, especially when it’s as substantial as the Alaska region seems to be. But, more selfishly, we were stoked to use the phrase “shreds the gnar” in a headline. Not a lot of legitimate reasons to do that when writing about, I don’t know,Dark SoulsorMass Effect....
