Download Pikmin 3

If  Pikmin 3 has just released Wii U (read our review of Pikmin 3 ), Shigeru Miyamoto recently gave an interview to the site 4GamerWhere we learn that the game could well have landed on the Nintendo 3DS.
In fact, we learn that the tests took place internally to provide Pikmin 3 on the latest Nintendo handheld:

The truth is that we were testing prototypes of Pikmin on the DS and 3DS , but it turned into a management game using only the stylus, and whatever but it does not look like Pikmin.

So we got hot, we could end up with a set of management rather far from what the series had accustomed us. They tried. It did not work.
Miyamoto went on to explain that with the first episode of the Pikmin series, he tried to create an intuitive control system for bugs in a 3D environment. Unfortunately the 3DS just was not compatible with this view.
Okay for Olimar fans, they can have fun with the Wii version U.
