    Hopefully they take all the time they need to make this game awesome!

    • http://www.facebook.com/tyrell.jones.9 Tyrell Jones

      that’s what every game developer should do. Take the time they need to completely develop the game, THEN if they want to make demos for it, then wait for a month and release the game.

    • Kaizar

      They all seem to take their time when it comes to both the 3DS & Wii U, luckily.

      WE THE BEST! FOREVER!

    • Kaizar

      I can’t wait for Ninja Gaiden 3DS & Batman 3DS & Sherlock Holmes 3DS & BloodRayne the Shroud & Zone of the Enders 3DZ & Kid Icarus sequel (25% done in storyline for pre-production) & Rsdient Evil New for 3DS & Golden Sun 4 & King of Pirates Trilogy & Rodea the Sky Soldier & Super Smash Bros. 3D & Monster Hunter 4 & Pokemon New and New & Assassin’s Creed other for 3DS, because the first project was cancel for the ideas moving into Revelations & Zelda New 3DS & the list goes on and on, LOL.

      and let’s not forget about the full 60 fps movies from Disney & Dreamworks & Warner Bros. to watch on the 3DS, coming in TBA, LOL.

      WE THE BEST!

    I can’t wait to see non-challenge mode gameplay.

  • Marty

    also nintendo of america confirmed a nintendo direct tomorrow through facebook.

    • Bicentennial_Pidgeon

      Hopefully they announce one of those “as of yet unannounced” Launch Window games they hinted at…!

    • Marty

      I wonder if there will be a sequel to pokemon battle revolution…

    • RPG Hacker

      Probably not yet. Or rather not until at least a Pokemon game for the 3DS is announced (and I’m not talking about spin-off series).

  • Zarb

    Suddenly, Rock Pikmin!

    Where did they come from anyways, do they just appear like that?? No flying Onion? Or is that because this is just a tech demo?

    • Marty

      this isn’t a tech demo, this is early in development and they usually are gotten from jelly floats from the gameplay i’ve seen.

    • Tails the Foxhound

      So then I would guess that these jelly floats eat Pikmin and then coat them with minerals and other materials until they become rock-like in appearance. It’d be really cool if you could willfully do this transformation.

    • Marty

      I think It’s only like that because the game is still unfinished and they don’t want to show to much off.

    • Tails the Foxhound

      It would be neat (if a bit clunky) mechanic if kept though.

  • Snorlax

    The best part is the PS logo on the back

    • Pyroblock

      its secretly a ps3 game

    • ItotallyknowwhatImsaying

      That can only be played on a PSP

    • LaLaLa

      That costs $500 dollars

    • Bicentennial_Pidgeon

      But the game costs 600 USD

  • Tails the Foxhound

    The Pikmin got stronger! Did you see how fast they broke down that stone wall? Let alone how few of them there were.

    • Pyroblock

      the stone wall was really sand actually

  • 0123456789

    it’s painful to watch this person play Pikmin 3…

  • http://www.youtube.com/user/MrKoopan?feature=mhee MrKoopan

    cool, still can’t wait

  • Shane

    Same video we have seen numerous times before; this isn’t “more” footage.

    • Pyroblock

      it is more footage, its not new footage

    Hey david if you haven’t posted this yet on the blog or made a video on your youtube, here’s some news. http://nintendoculture.wordpress.com/2012/09/24/wii-confirmed-to-use-e6760-gpu/

    • Bill Cosby

      That’s a powerful GPU!

    • http://www.facebook.com/tyrell.jones.9 Tyrell Jones

      Apparently so, this makes the Wii U 3-4x more powerful than 360/PS3. I’m interested in seein the PS4 and Xbox Durango, the games that they will bring to the table and what they’re specs are.

    • Kaizar

      I guessing it’s going to run at 800 MHz, because that’s the Max the IBM POWER 7 CPU can handle.

      The 3DS CPU can handle 400 MHz GPU, which is what it’s running at.

      The PS Vita CPU can handle 300 MHz GPU total, but has its GPU clocked at 266 MHz for some reason.

      486 shader cores, DAMMNNN, the 3DS has no more then around 100 shader cores I think.

      Nano Assault NEO is going to look 4 to 5 times better then Nano Assault EX.

      The GFLOPs is unbelievable.

      the Xbox 360 only has 48 shader cores and a 256 MB powerful RAM.

      The 3DS 128 MB FCRAM is 12 Mb more powerful then most 512 MB RAMs.

      2 Gb RAM with 1 GB going into GPU guarantees the 800 MHz, which I saw the 800 MHz from GPU coming from a mile away before they ever released the Wii U Specs.

      WE THE BEST!

  • Hybrilynx

    pikmin still would have been best on a 3ds. the pikmin street plaza images was awesome to look at.

    • Kaizar

      It looks like Crytek 3 & Unreal 4 graphics for a 3DS system…….Pikmin in 3DSPuzzle Swap really shows off what the Handheld is capable of with it’s around 100 million polygons like in “Spider Man Edge of Time” on the 3DS.

      Plus the 3DS has around 100 shader cores, even though it has less polygons then the 360 as shown in the Spider Man Edge of Time comparison video on YouTube (specifically, when he goes up the elevator and there is a bunch of skyscrapers in the background).

      I know the 360 only has 48 shader cores :..(

      But the Gamcube had more then 20 million polygons, and the Wii has 30 to 50 million polygons.

      And Nano Assault EX also shows off the Graphics capabilities of the 3DS.

      SHABLAGOO!
