MEET THE PIKMIN! OLIMAR'S ODYSSEY One fateful day, an asteroid slams into the SS Dolphin and sends it into a perilous tailspin. Luckily, the ship’s lone crew member – Captain Olimar – survives the crash, but now he’s stranded on a strange planet with no way to get home. Time to get to work! The mission: to track down the missing parts of the spaceship and escape the planet. If anyone can do it, it’s Captain Olimar! But time is short thanks to the planet’s poisonous atmosphere, and finding 30 parts in 30 days is a huge task for just one man. Thankfully, Olimar isn’t alone in his efforts… SURVIVING THE PLANET Pikmin are the key to success! Use their combined strength to destroy obstacles, build bridges, carry ship parts and take down hungry creatures – just fling them at things and watch them work! You can lead up to 100 Pikmin at once, but more can be kept safe at your base for when others fall. Each type of Pikmin has its own skills: Red Pikmin are strong in a fight and immune to fire, Yellow Pikmin can be thrown higher and use Bomb Rocks, and Blue Pikmin can breathe under water. Take advantage of these unique talents to explore the planet and restore Olimar’s ship! WHAT'S NEW? As well as HD graphics, Pikmin 1 on Nintendo Switch features all of the enhancements included in the NEW PLAY CONTROL! version of the game for Wii. Tasks like throwing, separating and swapping between Pikmin, as well as swarming ship parts or enemies, are all easier. You can also rewind to previous days and replay them to correct any mistakes made.
