Not the longest of games
Deluxe edition extras are disappointingly thin
A fairly barebones port if we're being brutally honest
Camera and lock-on system can still be fiddly at times
Controls sometimes feel like they fail at crucial moments
Being potentially responsible for hundreds of deaths

Pikmin 3 Deluxe takes all the charm, cuteness and requirements to think tactically and puzzle-solve that the first two Pikmin games showed, and adds a structured framework to those irresistible attributes. If the original game hadn't come out for such a d...

Abstract: Stem subjects.Like its many buried riches, Nintendo's Pikmin series remains a treasure ready to be rediscovered.Between its dusty plant pots and dew-laden leaves, Nintendo's cute take on the strategy genre has always been more than the sum of its part...

While it isn't the port of Xenoblade Chronicles X my heart is aching for, Pikmin 3 Deluxe is still a welcome addition to the Nintendo Switch library, and will hopefully introduce this strange yet satisfying strategy outing to a whole new audience. A 'ha...

Fantastic quality-of-life changes with controls and features, Side stories are interesting and provide more character for Olimar and Louie, Mission mode is even more fun thanks to the QoL changes and all of the DLC being available, The return of the Piklo
Did not receive much of a visual overhaul when brought over from Wii U, Bingo battle remains local multiplayer only, Small, but frustrating glitches with the badges and the Piklopedia
Pikmin 3 Deluxe is truly the definitive version of Pikmin 3 with plenty of additions and quality-of-life changes that will make it difficult to go back to the original Wii U version. The side stories provide creative level design that was missing from the...
The Pikmin are as cute and charming as ever, Simple and satisfying RTS gameplay, New QoL changes make the game more accessible to new players
The hint system makes an already easy game easier, No visual improvements or online play, New content is insignificant
Pikmin 3 Deluxe is the best way to experience Pikmin 3. Tons of minor changes make the game more accessible, and the new content adds a couple of hours to the short main campaign. Still, the game is largely the same game that appeared on the WiiU, from...

New control options, Bundled DLC and new Olimar missions, A beautiful visual style
Still just 720p, Gyropointer controls aren't the same as an accurate Wii Remote
This is probably the best Pikmin game, and this is undoubtedly the best version of it. It's a bit of a shame that this isn't full-HD like many Wii U ports have been, but the quality of Pikmin 3 Deluxe is unmistakable. An excellent action-strategy adventur...
