0:56 I spend the rest of my third day leisurely picking up more Pikmin and getting my radar. I'm trying to cultivate a balance of yellow and red Pikmin. Now that I've found my patience and I'm getting into the whole Zen of the game, I'm finding it as relaxing as ever. Like gardening, except not nearly as boring.
0:59 I weaponize my explosive-carrying yellow Pikmin in a battle with a giant ladybug. I don't think I ever thought to do this when I played the GameCube version. I guess I'm getting wise in my old age.
Would I play this game for more than an hour? Yes.
More importantly, would I pay $29.99 for this game when I could pick up a used GameCube version for less money? No.
This column is based on a retail copy of the game provided by the publisher.
