Also, wasn't Kirby's Air Ride in development even all the way back at the last days of the N64? I seem to remember that it was going to come out for the 64.

Pikmin 2 could be great but so far the graphics suck
But what I really want is F-Zero, and Mario 128

Just a hunch.

But yeah. There won't be a battle mode in Fzero.

if you look at this Pikmin pic, there is no split screen. Maybe they combine the screens if they are close, but I highly doubt that.
I mentioned Kirby because it was announce the same time as Pikmin and I remember it having a 4 player split screen.

The first screen of Kirby's Air Ride I saw was him racing in some checkered track. It looked pretty big. The next one was similar to the ones we have now (the ones with Link's hat). This game was actually one of the first (if not the first) game announced for the N64. It was canceled, i think, because it was too cute, and not really what NIntendo wanted to launch the N64 with - so we got Mario 64 instead.

BTW, I’m sure we’ll have more info on these games at E3.

Bill, 1player control doesn't usually have a split screen.

I wouldn't say that. Have you ever played Toe Jam & Earl? That had 2 player co-op. Not that lan wouldn't be fun thought

Multiplayer should be very interesting. Personally, I'm hoping for something similar to the multiplayer of Zelda on GBA, from what I've heard of it. It would work great with Pikmin, it would fit the style perfectly. I just hope they go easy on the puzzles - the last stage of Pikmin seemed a bit too much like Zelda for me - too obviously designed as a puzzle - it didn't have that natural wildlife feel that the rest of the game was so brilliant at.

hello!!! hes a bit weird have you played pikmin the entire game is out of its own pikmin sized brain, little ant things that come out of onions only during daytime to be hunted by giant birds and what seems to be a cross between a frog and a mushroom being led by a man in a cat suit with a fish bowl on his head he wouldn't look out of place in a teletubie set.
secondly, shigsy is a god and with pikmin and mario kart i sleep well noing that he will produce somthn special
