Pikmin 3 Misses Wii U Launch Day - Due 2013

Those wanting a dollop of high-definition Olimar will have to wait until next Spring as Nintendo confirmed Pikmin 3 today as a 2013 title.

During the Nintendo Direct conference today, the company revealed that the title will not be a launch title for the new system. With its reveal at E3 many fans had anticipated the third game in the series to make an appearance to tantalise launch queues; however the company slipped in word today that Pikmin 3 will be available in Spring 2013 with Wii Fit U.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time with Pikmin 3, it's certainly a title to keep on the Wii U radar.
