"A new side-scrolling Pikmin adventure game unlike Pikmin games of the past is coming to Nintendo 3DS," said Nintendo. "Pikmin follow Olimar around, and players tap the touch screen where they want to throw them. This is designed as an action game that makes players think fast and use every Pikmin to overcome anything that stands in their way. The game is scheduled to launch in 2017."
