In addition to the control enhancements, players can now ‘back up’ a few steps in a save file. Once Pikmin are in their appropriate group, players can point the Wii Remote at a group to target it, then press B to use Olimar’s whistle and make them follow him. To do this, players simply press the Nunchuk’s C Button. At any time, Olimar can ask the Pikmin to stand at attention in their colour group.
On many occasions, Olimar will want only one group of Pikmin to follow him, but he wants to keep another colour group close by for quick access to them. Swarming is also used to move the entire group of Pikmin away from something dangerous, like water or fire. When a ship’s part is found, Olimar needs to command them to swarm the object and carry it back to The Dolphin. (Previously, this action was performed by moving the C Stick in a certain direction on the GameCube controller). To swarm, use the Wii Remote to point the target cursor at the desired location in which to swarm, then press and hold the Down Button on the +Control Pad. Instead of throwing the Pikmin one-by-one, Olimar can order them to all move in one direction. This bug must be dealt with immediately, knocking it out of the sky and then swarming it until it says good-bye.Ī Pikmin might not seem very threatening, but 100 Pikmin make even the largest beast sense its doom. The two-armed flying pest follows your posse, swoops down, grabs two unsuspecting Pikmin and then plants them back into the ground. It takes a swarm of Pikmin to weigh one down enough to stay on the ground. Wollyhops can often jump into the sky when Pikmin are still latched onto them. These chunky frog-like creatures leap into the sky and then slam themselves to the ground, crushing anything beneath it. A similar breed of Blowhog puffs out air. It can shake Pikmin off its back and then blast them with a stream of fire from his nose. This beast has a lot of love to give, to things that love fire. Some spouts are used to put out fires, a Fiery Blowhog’s snout starts them. From the back is the perfect place to strike and swarm this beast. But the eyes can’t see what’s going on behind it. Its big eyes on the top of its head are as big as its stomach. BulborbsĬan anything polka-dotted be dangerous? If it’s a hungry Bulborb, you bet. It’s not that they want to eat the Pikmin into extinction: Pikmin just taste so good, the beasts can’t help themselves. They don’t have an appetite for the brave Captain, just his underlings. The only thing standing between Olimar and the parts of his ship are, well, everything - not the least of which are the beasts of the planet. Will the commander find the parts to reconstruct the Dolphin? The task is mighty: recover 30 pieces of the ship in 30 days, spread across a planet - filled with Pikmin-hungry animal life - that becomes more dangerous with each passing day. As the commander and his subjects canvassed the area, they found a piece of the Dolphin, and now must scour the planet to salvage the pieces that remain. These creatures obeyed Olimar’s every command, allowing him to control them any way he wanted. On the first day, he discovered a plant-animal hybrid he named Pikmin. The life-support system built into his suit gave him the bad news: The planet’s air was poisonous and his suit had enough power to support him for only 30 days.Īs he searched the planet for help, Olimar soon learned he was not alone. The good news, he thought, was that he was alive. Olimar awoke to see the remains of his miracle-working ship – broken into pieces, a skeleton of its former self.
Nearly destroyed, the Dolphin was able to make one last delivery: Captain Olimar, alive, on a strange planet. A galactic navigator known from constellation to constellation for his hard work, Captain Olimar toiled day after day, shipping goods from planet to planet – always on time, always dependable.īut on one fateful day, a screeching asteroid slammed into Olimar’s trusty ship, the Dolphin, sending it into a perilous tailspin.
