Pikmin 3 Direct - Full presentation

20:00 The presentation has begun. It's been a while since Hitoshi Matsumoto and Miyamoto met.
20:01 Game creation involves planning, as well as data and asset creation. Matsumoto looked up Miyamoto on Wikipedia, learned about tea table upending.
20:02 Since Pikmin 2 was released, Matsumoto has gotten married and had kids. Starting with story mode. Going to an unknown planet, meeting the Pikmin.
20:03 New characters are from a different planet than Olimar, though they look similar. Miyamoto will start by reading the scripted lines.
20:04 There's an object like the GamePad in the game. Run into the yellow Pikmin first.
20:05 Throw Pikmin with the A button, and they take care of the shrooms. Call with B.
Matsumoto doesn't really need an explanation; Miyamoto need not be there.
20:06 That's the end of the day for the 1st character, Charlie. Here's the 2nd, Alph.
20:07 Pikmin will be tossed toward the on-screen target. Carry enemies, etc. to onion.
20:08 Matsumoto can't reach the GamePad with the red Pikmin. Use Z button to change cam.
20:09 The Pikmin build a bridge out of the shingles. Matsumoto gets the appeal.
20:10 A map is on the GamePad. See remaining Pikmin, allies. More Pikmin carry faster.
20:11 Plucking Pikmin has been simplified. Just press A to pluck them all.
20:13 Rock Pikmin are in the game. Blast off to a higher altitude at night than before.
20:15 7 to 10 min. missions are available for practice. Small Bulbears die quickly.
Rescue Pikmin captured by a jellyfish-like creature by tossing rock Pikmin.
20:16 Once the time limit is up, your score is tallied. You'll get better with practice.
Flying Pikmin can retrieve objects from otherwise inaccessible spots.
20:17 There are lots of strategies to enjoy. Missions can be cleared in about 10 min.
20:18 A replay feature allows you to see everything you did in that play session.
20:19 Games can get under your skin and affect you unlike anything else, even frustrate.
20:20 More will have to come up and continue creating Pikmin after Miyamoto's gone.
20:21 The presentation is now over. Thanks for following!
