Really like how improved the Pikmin are. Someone posted this comparison on GAF

Someone noted that the character is called Pikmin and Olimar, and is guessing that maybe the Pikmin 3 characters will be alternate costumes

It's possible they put it like that because people will know the name "Pikmin", but not "Olimar", especially as he doesn't seem to have a big role in Pikmin 3.

Yeah, highly likely

That's just a photo type background though isn't it?

 

If you look closely.

 

It looks like a blurry, pixellated, 2D background that works great at some angles.

How'd you mean? It's just DoF'ed. The whole scene looks so natural with lighting and levels.

You've seen it in motion?

Based on the "jaggies". It doesn't look like AA issues, it looks like pixellation. It will probably look perfectly fine when you're playing the game.

Love this image:

Kirby: "Puyo (You look even tastier now)..."

 

This is good timing too. Pikmin 3 is almost here and he makes his Smash Bros. return!

So the purple and white Pikmin return instead of their Pikmin 3 substitutes pink and rock. Hadn't expected that actually :)

 

Looks gorgeous though! :bowdown:

 

The purple and white pikmin will be in Pikmin 3.

 

Can't find the source but Miyamoto said this.

OLIMAR CONFIRMED

 

These pics worth it now, @Ashley? :p

 

Weren't you the one expressing a dislike for the dojo and saying you preferred not having stuff revealed about the game before it's out?

 

Nonetheless, I'm happy Olimar's in it, though I didn't really think they'd drop him. Was one of my top characters early on in Brawl, felt he never got a fair crack in the ol' Nintendo random for me though.

Me not wanting new stuff to be revealed every day doesn't mean I don't want reveals every now and again. Please stop taking it to extremes

Just seemed you didn't mind posting it quite openly here in the thread, with like ALL OF THE PICTURES. But sure, don't mind me or anyone else.

Yay for Olimar :) To me, the only thing holding him back in Brawl was the game's engine, making him even clunkier and more awkward than he was.

 

On a related topic, I can't wait to see some proper matches being played, to compare the gameplay. I know Sakurai showed one match already, but it was more a Megaman exhibition than anything.

Since they used this confirmation to promote the release of Pikmin 3, I think it's safe to expect Pokemon Trainer near october and Diddy Kong in November.

Maybe Dixie too?

 

Or they could do some kind of Diddy/Dixie combo character like Zelda/Sheik... where they slap hands to swap in and out :p

 

That could/would be pretty awesome! I'd worry they'd look a bit too Ice Climberish(would it be possible to do a barrel break swap maybe?) and then they'd have seperate final smashes or a combined one or...hmm. How mad would it be if you actually needed a specific DK barrel item to appear for them to swap in/out?

Holding him back? I thought he was pretty brilliant! I know a lot of people didn't like brawl's engine as much as melee, but I really wasn't fussed. I'm interested to see how 4's is gonna be.
