News From Lik Sang (http://www.lik-sang.com/news.php?artc=3440&&lsaid=219793) [br][br] Pikmin 2, sold out and in Famitsu's Most Wanted for weeks, will be released as US version as early as Monday of next week. Please place your pre-order early to reserve your copy. In stock and shipping within 24h already by now is Pikmin 1 (US) for affordable $19.95 (as long as stocks last). Perfect to order along with your Pikmin 2, but also not a bad choice on its own if you should already own the Japanese version of Pikmin 2.[br][br]Japan is strange in many ways, and so are Japanese companies. Nintendo was landing a major hit with Pikmin 2 and Japanese gaming mags just loved it. The sun was shining in Japan and the world was just so beautiful. Only problem for Nintendo was, that they couldn't ship enough Pikmin 2 to the retail stores and Pikmin 2 landed on the Famitsu Most Wanted Charts even after it's release (and stayed there for weeks). If you couldn’t get your hands on it as Japanese import version, here we go with the US release.[br] [br]For all of you who missed it, here are the Japanese ratings for Pikmin 2:[br][br]Famitsu: 9 / 9 / 9 / 9 - (36/40)[br][br]Dorimaga: 10 / 9 / 9 - Total 9,33[br][br]Famitsu GC: 10 / 9 / 10 / 10 - (39/40)[br][br]Dengeki GC: 9 / 9 / 9[br][br]Captain Olimar has returned to the planet where the Pikmin live, and he's all business this time! The company he works for is going bankrupt, so to save it, Olimar must salvage the treasure buried all over the planet. Luckily, Olimar brought an assistant, so they should be able to erase that debt in no time! Of course, they'll need the help of the Pikmin to do that. Alternate controlling the main characters - Olimar and his assistant - as you command your Pikmin to defeat enemies, propagate more Pikmin, collect precious doodads, and solve puzzles. With no time limit, new colors of Pikmin, and two-player cooperative play, Pikmin 2 improves on the original in every way.
