Pikmin 3 Will Be More Like The First Game

Nintendo Buddha, Shigeru Miyamoto said that he didn't like the design choices made during Pikmin 2, and that the third entry will be more in line with the first Pikmin game.

During a recent interview with the UKs Official Nintendo Magazine, Shigeru Miyamoto said, "Our main aim in Pikmin 2 was to get rid of any stress as much as possible, so that it would be very user-friendly. Well, I myself couldn't agree with that direction perfectly. That kind of nature of Pikmin 1 was exactly what I wanted to reproduce and I was actually intentionally doing so, so that Pikmin 1 could be a strategic game."

We're not sure that the change is necessary since we like the direction that Pikmin 2 went, but we'll just have to wait to see how Pikmin 3 turns out before we pass final judgement. Which game in the series did you like better?
