Pikmin was one of the pleasent surprises Nintendo showed us at E3. It was the first time it was shown, and it was in playable form.  The Game was created by Shigeru Miyamoto, which got everyone even more excited. The game shown at E3 was not the completed version,  but It still had everyone hooked.

Features

Explore a Garden from an ant's perspective
Interact with Plant life
Control hundreds of Pikmin to find parts of your ship.
Different Pikmin have different personality traits.
There are 3  types of Pikmin, bud, leaf, and flower.
Pikmin can carry objects to their nest, where Pikmin are bred.
You can climb walls, build brigdes, and destroy bosses with the Pikmin
You can assign certain groups of pikmin to carry out certain tasks.
The day and night goes according to real life time.
The game is now a launch title.

The game is about a spaceman who landed on a planet, but the ship broke into parts that are scattered all over the planet. There is too much to do himself, so he uses the pikmin to help him. He can get more by pulling them out of the ground by their flower, leaf, or bud. There can also be more than 100 pikmin on the screen at once. We definately want to see more of this game at space world, and we most likely will.
