The Pikmin series was one of those bold moves by Nintendo that seemed to be going in a different direction than anything else in the gaming industry. It didn’t pay off quite as successfully as the herd-defiant Brain Age, Wii or Nintendo Switch, to name three of the company’s more radical creations, but it did at least result in a very good game series.

Nintendo confirms that its mysterious Close To You video is a Pikmin animated short, featuring a baby and the iconic Pikmin in a heartwarming pacifier chase.

Nintendo is currently working on a new spin off based on its real-time strategy and puzzle game series, Pikmin, based on the latest rumor.
Hopefully they focus on Pikmin 4 DLC instead. That game introduced tons of interesting mechanics that deserve extra levels and bosses.

Following a surprise reveal last week, GoodSmile Company formally revealed their Pikmin Nendoroid. - IS
