Customers consistently note the engaging gameplay and collecting aspects of Pikmin 1 + 2. Many appreciate the reasonable price for both games and the portability offered by this version. However, some find Pikmin 2 to be quite difficult, and a few mention that the controls do not translate perfectly. Overall, the remake is considered worthwhile for those who enjoy the Pikmin series.

Pikmin 1+2 is a fun throwback. These games hold up surprisingly well, especially if you’ve never played them before. Pikmin 1 keeps things tense with its 30-day time limit, while Pikmin 2 is a bit more relaxed and adds cool stuff like caves and new Pikmin types.
The updated visuals look better, though they didn’t overhaul much. Controls can feel a little awkward sometimes, especially in handheld mode, but nothing deal-breaking

Controls well on the switch, and while it doesn't have a switch 2 upgrade it still plays just as well on it if not a bit better.

The Pikmin series simply does not miss. The games are as fun as they are immersive and challenging. The Pikmin 1+2 combo is a great value, as both games are top notch.

The Pikmin are hard workers and real life savers. They helped me to retrieve parts of my broken ship in order for me to return home. Along with saving my life, they even helped my company get out of debt. They each have their own strengths and weaknesses so that requires some flexibility from you as well, but even so you'd be more than lucky to have them around.

I played Pikmin 3 & 4 before this game. I liked them so much that I wanted to see how the series began. I have not played Pikmin 2 yet, but heard it should be a bit better. Pikmin 1 is fun. However it is a bit not polished (kind of buggy, but not that the game crashes). For example: some Pikmins tend to get stuck on parts of the terrain geometries. or fall into hazards. Other than that complaint - I think it is a pretty good game.

Love this game. It’s a good one to play casually and there’s some puzzle solving but it’s mostly a cozy game

I’m pretty glad they actually bundled all the Pickin games onto the switch somehow too bad didn’t enhance the graphics for this one very much at all even in the least amount, but it’s still very much fun to play.

Who can't not love this title? Been an avid fan ever since they released on the WII. 2 player support which was abandoned in Pikmin4 ( shooting enemies only in my opinion is not 2 player capable in Pikmin4). You can spend hours and hours enjoying this game. Family fun and easy going title. Now being on the switch, you can take it with you.

I started playing Pikmin when the third game came out and I have been a huge fan of the series ever since. I had been waiting for all 4 mainline Pikmin games on the switch which was much needed. It's unfortunate how they removed all of the brand references in the game, but that was expected. All of the Pikmin games will always be some of the most fun video games there are.

Bought this for my grandson’s birthday. He loved it and has enjoyed playing the game.
I was happy to have found something he enjoyed. The price was reasonable for a game and very reasonable since there were two games combined. The online ordering was extremely easy and the delivery was quick with the gift arrived in excellent condition. I would highly recommend.

I love the pikmin games except for the "daily" timer. By the time I'm really getting anywhere it's time to go back to the ship. I also have weird feelings of sadness and guilt over the lost pikmin, seeing their little ghosts always makes me feel bad - like I was reckless with their little lives.

Pikmin 1 and Pikmin 2 in my opinion are some of the best games in the franchise. If you are new to the series definitely check these out first. Much better than Pikmin 4.

2 of the greatest Gamecube Games reported once again from the Wii versions onto the switch. So glad they ported them over with the new controls. Love that Pikmin as a series is getting so much love now.

I’ve loved Pikmin 1 and 2 since the games were released on GameCube. They’re just as wonderful now as they were at release — and now you can play them both on a modern console. Also a great price for two of the most unique and special strategy games released this millennium.

Great opportunity to replay a classic or opportunity to play it if you didn’t play it when it came out.
