Did you really have to go and fuck up this week's comment section just because you're pissy over the resolution of last week's video?
Jesus people are immature.
If you're pissy about last week's thread, go be pissy IN LAST WEEK'S THREAD. Amazing how logical that sounds, isn't it?

Being of German descent I have to agree with this sentiment, it is a great injustice that the Germans have been labeled as scat fetishists and Yahtzee should feel ashamed for perpetuating this stereotype. I will now proceed to hold my breath until Yahtzee edits this video and personally comes over to my house to apologize to every single German relative I have.PsychedelicDiamond said:
I was originally going to make a joke about being offended but I see everyone already beat me to it. Going to be interesting to see how this all works out, maybe we'll end up with two versions of ZP, a politically correct one and an entertaining one.
That said I don't own a gamecube or a Wii U so I've never actually played a pikmin game. The concept always interested me, being a lover of RTS games but I think I grew out of Nintendo.

Sounds like dickwolves all over again.Dante dynamite said:
Either way, not surprised he had an issue with the controller. Motion controllers have never been his strong suit - not that I can blame him, they all handle like arse.
I know right. You'd think that you were dealing with a bunch of 12 year olds. Jokes are funniest if they are posted ad infinitum, especially when it is such a nuanced and clever one.Raiyan 1.0 said:
You do use the touch screen, but not for gathering the pikmin or throwing them.Balkan said:
You have 3 characters so basically you can control one char manually while the two others can do stuff like move to new locations and explore etc, and that's what the screen is used for, exploring.
Personally I think they could've used the touch screen more and in varying ways depending on what suits oneself best, but overall I enjoyed the game, even thou it was a bit short with only 10 hours of story gameplay + minigames (maybe 3-6 extra hours).
Motion controll??Abomination said:
There is zero/nill/0 motion controlling in Pikmin 3 on the WiiU when using the gamepad as the controller...
People need to stop thinking that the WiiU is an exact copy of the Wii, The only motion stuff I've ever done with the pad when gaming on the console is when flying Samus Arans ship in NintendoLand and when using the sniper/turret in ZombiU, in any other of the games I've played there's no moving around like with the WiiMote, what-so-ever, only buttons and the touch screen.
Are people serious with these comments? Complaining that yahtzee didn't try the wii mote/ nunchuck controls or that he is anti nintendo or saying that he is bias. First, of course he is bias, everyone is bias. I have never read a review that is not bias. Next, does the game recommend for you to use the nunchuck/wiimote, cause that would be weird since this is the Wii U and they are trying to show the worth of the gamepad.
Yahtzee consistently bring up important problems and inconsistencies in games that no one else mentions. What makes these videos great is that Yahtzee is not a nintendo fanboy (or a fanboy of anything) so he actually points out dumb things in nintendo games (and all games) and does not let nostalgia get in the way.
Another great video Yahtzee!

o hai jefffers, I'm slightly amazed you don't have me on ignore.j-e-f-f-e-r-s said:
But anyway, to answer the question of why I would rather use the Pro controller:
1. The Wiimote is finicky and inaccurate,to the point where even simple motions like trying to do a search on netflix is a pain in the ass.
2. I played the Wii version of Pikmin 2 once, and despite having beaten the GC version twice I could barely survive the early game and found myself wishing for the GC controller.
3. My Wii is in front of my couch, so I like to lounge when I play, which makes aiming with the Wiimote even harder.

Ha! You both fell into my incredibly elaborate and well-planned ruse, and by that I mean I'm not being serious at all. It's a crack at people who thought Yahtzee should remove a transexual joke in the same review as a holocaust joke, because clearly hurting a few people's feelings with a joke is a much bigger reason to self-censor than making light of the holocaust.Zombie_Moogle said:
Yeah, the pro-controller works but it's pretty much the exact same as the controller. Still... why not just use the motion controls? Using a pro-controller for this game is like using a controller for a PC RTS and not using the mouse because of some irrational hatred for mouses.major_chaos said:
Is it a problem if an Xbox One game isn't made for Kinect? Or if a DS game isn't made for dual-screen/touch-screen controls? Or if a Wii game isn't made for motion controls? No. Then it shouldn't be a problem that Nintendo made a game with a control method that isn't the Wii U gamepad in mind. Not every Wii U game has to be The Wonderful 101.saxman234 said:
