Breaking:Want an update on what's going on with the Pikmin series? Look no further.
After a conference that explicitly stated no Wii U or Pikmin talk, in a shocking twist Miyamoto has just confirmed Pikmin 3 is now set for the Wii U, even though he wasn't officially supposed to announce it, but decided to anyway at the developers roundtable. Because he wanted to.
When Pikmin 3 talk first surfaced during the roundtable, Miyamoto stated that it was his intention to release the next entry this year to coincide with the series' 10th anniversary and stated that it 'was' a Wii game. But due to his team being on the forefront of developing on Nintendo's new technology with HD graphics and new controller, he realized that this was the perfect system for the next entry and ended up deciding to announce it.
As an extra bonus, Miyamoto went on to tease that it might not be long until it's ready either.
