Game Description

The Pikmin brand is one of the most original titles that Mario-creator Shigeru Miyamoto has cooked up for the GameCube to date, and this second game improves and expands on the real-time fun offered in the first. In Pikmin 2, Captain Olimar returns to the planet he was originally stranded on, to collect trinkets for his failing company to sell back at home. A new two-character play mechanic has been added, which allows players to switch between two spacemen while collecting items. Along with the new playable character, two new Pikmin types have been included-- large hulking purple Pikmin, and small and feisty white Pikmin. Two-player co-op challenge missions and a competitive mode are also available.

Features

• Take advantage of new colors of Pikmin and use new items strategically with more than 60 different species of enemy characters and randomly generated dungeons that span the planet, the game features even more game play than the original.
• Command red, blue and yellow Pikmin, as they all make a return, each with special abilities, like water resistance, bomb-carrying skills and invulnerability to fire. Watch for new Pikmin colors to make their debut, and their special skills become integral, as you battle your way toward the valuable doodads strewn across the planet.
• Head straight for the action or spend as much time exploring as you please, as time in this game is limitless. Open up brand new gameplay possibilities by playing cooperatively with a second player.
