The game is absolutely phenomenal and would be a must buy if it was decently priced. 60 bucks is retarded for a 2013 game.
Why do you think Nintendo delisted the game when there can't be that many Wii U owners who haven't played it yet? I 'm salty about that for sure.
Agreed. Should have been 40 at most. However, most of the complaints I am seeing are less about the absurd price and more for the fact that the game is getting ported in the first place.
To be quite frank, I didn't even know Wii U's eshop was still open. Thought Nintendo closed that a while back. Though I don't really think that is much of an issue as you can get the superior, physical release for cheap still.
Oh, don't misunderstand. I fully expect to be more than disappointed.Remember when folks thought that Wii U-purchased Virtual Console games would carry over to the Switch? Good times.
I thought it seemed very, very enjoyable but each level has a time limit that ruined the whole game for me at least. Very stressful, and you can't take your time and enjoy the game really.Is Pikmin 3 any good? I love the first one, but missed this.
No one wants a trash ass Wii U, not back then and not now. The only thing that was great about it were Nintendo games and even those underperformed. How foolish is it to expect people to buy a Wii U in 2020 because they want to catch up to about two handful of games they have missed!? Thats not convenient at all. The games perform muuuuch better on Switch too because there is a muuuuuch bigger audience, so it absolutely makes sense to rerelease from a business standpoint. A PS3 will give you entertainment for years. A Wii U won't do that unless you mod it.Nothing stopping you from buying a Wii U to play Wii U games, just like there ain't anything stopping you from buying a PS3 to play PS3 games.
So xenoblade chronicles x next

I mean sure, you can criticize Nintendo for their pricing on those ports, but this sentiment that they shouldnt port at all is silly.
That's a lot of u's for a person who hates the Wii U . LOL
I know but a man can hope and I still believe it's not as expensive as they make it out to be since tho XCX is the base for XC2.Nintendo isn't giving Monolith the money or time for it.Tetsuya was in an interview for XBC2 when he said the team wants to do an XBX delux
It's a scummy thing to do. Nintendo wants to force as many people as they can into buying it for $60. They see the Wii U install base as a threat to that. Not sure why anyone would be ok with that.
So why did Nintendo feel the need to delist it if there are so few people who could buy it?I don't see it as much of an issue. The Wii U's install base is tiny and the platform is dead.

Why is it such a big deal for you that they did?
I already answered this, why did you avoid the question?
I haven't. I answered it previously. Seems like you just want a reason to get pissy at Nintendo over a non-issue. Again, the game is still available to buy for cheap. No one is forced to buy on Switch just as no one is stopped from buying for Wii U. Despite what you claimed.
$19.99 for the Wii U selects. $60 for the switch. Nintendo
Big difference though, one console that was dead from launch, the other a massive selling console that just keeps gaining momentum, and let's be honest here, the Wii U version only sold around 1.2 million copies, so lot's of potential new owners for this then.
Yes, 2/3 more expensive is indeed a big difference for the consumer. You don't much care about that side of things though do you?
Nobody would buy devil's turd. Imagine if we get a Switch version of it lol.Stolen from reee
You haven't answered why the Wii U can both be owned by very few who don't already have Pikmin 3 and also be a big enough threat to Nintendo that they would delist the game on the Wii U so people can't buy it from Nintendo directly. NIntendo doesn't control and doesn't get credit for the existence of the used market. Not sure why you keep bringing that up.
You are the one who is constantly making the claim that it is a "Threat" to Nintendo. Provide evidence that is why they delisted it. Also PIkmin 3 can still be bought brand new in stores for 20 bucks.
Maybe take a step back and realize not everything is a conspiracy theory.

I’ll grab this even though I played through it on Wii U. I’ll miss the second screen experience though.
Hilarious to me how many people at another forum are bitching about this. Oh no, they removed the $20 version for the old console that you never bought?! Now what?!

They must have had a reason to remove it though, what do you think that reason was?
Because they want to make sure people buy the more expensive version. Which is a shitty thing to do, but the consumers do have a say in this. They can always not buy it.

Who asked for this? Give me any of the zeldas or super Mario 3D world before this.
Why did you need to switch?, i always played with the gamepad i never had to switch to a wiimote in this game or any Wii u game.The controls were a god damned fucking nightmare, I remember having to lay the tablet controller on something, and switch between it and the Wiimote+chuck constantly. I don't remember why that was the way it was, but I remember all the SUPER HIGH reviews recommending that bullshit.
This is such shitty news, they'll sell this for full price too, despite it being VERY OLD.
We deserve Pikmin 4 by now Nintendo, I just fucking give up, my Switch is packed away gathering dust, this fixes nothing.

It's a great system as long as you're using the GamePad. However, even though the map is incredibly handy, you do have to put up with annoying control issues. You can lock on to enemies and objects to quickly throw pikmin where you need them to be, but it's clunky on the GamePad. It's easy to overshoot your target, especially if it's hovering in the sky, which is frustrating during heated battles. The Wii Remote with nunchuk is a much better option if aiming is getting you down. Pointing at enemies is so easy, you never have to worry that you're going to inadvertently throw your pikmin in the wrong place. However, you won't have the map in your hands. Neither method is ideal, so you just have to decide which problem you can live with.
Why do you think they delisted it then? Also, I seriously doubt that you can find it new anymore, it is certainly out of print.
