This is a great addition to the mainline Pikmin games.

Awesome game but it is pretty much the same game that came out on the Wii U so if you have that version I wouldn’t worry about getting this one. If you did not play this game on the Wii U then this is definitely a fun game to pick up and it’s co-op.

My grandson had this game on his Wishlist for Christmas. The purchase was a gift for him. I used a Best Buy bonus certificate for this purchase.

My #1 all time favorite had to have this once again. I mean the definition of this game an all around play is amazing, I'm loving it go order yours today, right now get on it !!!! Purchase your very own copy today. ;)

I bought this as a gift for my niece and she loves it.

Wonderful game, so much fun to play. Easy controls and great story .

This game was one of the only highlights of the Wii-U experience, and I am glad that they ported it to the Switch. It is a direct port, so I think it should be less than a $50 AAA title.

Pikmin 3 Deluxe is a much needed bridge towards the elusive Pikmin 4. While the original game was great on the Wii U, Pikmin 3 Deluxe offers a few extra features while delivering the same great quality of the same game. The game runs smoothly on Switch, no issues to report. If you’ve never played a Pikmin game before, you’ll be happy to know that you won’t be confused or missing out on any info if you haven’t played the other two. This game is a very fun puzzle/strategy based game. You run through some charming puzzles while grouping your small obsequiously subservient Pikmin creatures, using their elemental types to your advantage. It’s certainly an interesting game, and worth the money if you never played the first one.

This version of Pikmin 3 is fantastic. There is new content if you owned the prior WiiU version, but unless you are a big fan and need to own it all or wish to play it again on the Switch it's not enough that I'd let it sway you. Otherwise it's a great game that looks great and is adapted to the Switch controls well.

Co-op is the #1 reason to get this version. Otherwise, opt for the $20 digital WiiU version. If you don’t have another person to play with or don’t have a WiiU, then maybe wait for a sale, but good luck getting a first party Nintendo game on sale within the first year. Great gameplay, but tough to pay full price for a port (yes there are a few new short campaigns and game modes, but the star of the show is co-op play).

I really like this game. Nice to have a digital copy without a game card for convenience.

I love the Pikmin Franchise and this is a great addition to the series. With the enhanced controls, co-op mode, and new missions/story added makes thos an even greater edition than the original Wii U version.

Another great port from the Wii U. If you have not played this, it is a must. Fun and easy to play...a game for all ages! Some great new content added on that was not included in the Wii U version

Great game, Pikmin has always been such a fun mix of action adventure, puzzle and a little bit real time strategy. If you are a fan of the series and missed this release on the Wii U make sure to pick this up.

I wasn't sure that I'd enjoy a time management game even with the pikmin asthetic, but for $30 I decided now was the time to find out. I'm glad I did because Pikmin 3 has been a lot of fun. I haven't beaten it yet, I've only recently unlocked all the Pikmin types, but the game is a lot more forgiving than I had expected and even lets you redo a days of exploration if you lost a lot of pikmin or feel you could've done better that day. There are some challenges to overcome and several multi-tasking puzzels but they are a lot of fun to overcome. Would recomend.

This is an awesome adventure game for the switch. I’ve not played previous versions so I have nothing to compare it to. I don’t like being on a time schedule. It would be better to just be able to enjoy the adventure without the pressure of time running out.

I loved Pikmin on the Game cube as a child, so I was very excited to see how this game would play on the switch. I've only played it on single player mode so far, but it's richer in content then I expected. I want to play it back in two player mode to take full advantage of the new playing style. The maps are complex enough that I feel like the game was worth the price, but solvable enough that I don't have to spend ages doing tasks. I also love the art.

I have never finished a Pikmin game, but a portable version of a main entry in the series made it possible! Pikmin is a game in which miniature alien folk land on an Earth-like planet full of Earth-like food and also little creatures called Pikmin. You manage these Pikmin who are grouped by color, each with different abilities and traits, in order to fight other adorable creatures, destroy and build and move things. The game's delightful almost-difficult gameplay urges you forward just enough and keeps you engaged with a day cycle, permanent death for your pikmin, and a resource requirement you have to meet each day (a bottle of juice for your crew to drink), and always gives you something to manage at once with up go three three separate controllable groups and pikmin assigned all over the map. All parts of the game can be played with two players, but there are both cooperative and competitive levels aside from the campaign which aren't going to keep you playing through the decade, but should give you at least as much as the campaign does as long as you have someone to play with.

Simple, elegant, clearly Pikmin 3, as depicted on the box. Not sure where the team lost their way between this and Pikmin 4/6. 5 stars.

This was my third favorite Wii U game. I have over 200 hours in the Wii U version. The Switch version adds a lot of content including Side Stories, co-op Story Mode, two hard modes, an achievement system, optional hints, and the Pikloopedia. I personally feel like most of the fun of this game is found in Bingo Battle first and Mission Mode second. Bingo Battle is just amazing, and Mission Mode is very challenging. Casual players and newcomers should check out Story Mode to learn the controls.
