It's not Zelda or Star Fox, but another promising title from Miyamoto. Perhaps his gardening pastime inspired this, but it's definitely different from his other games. The premise is this:

Your spaceship has crashed on a planet, and you meet the Pikmin. These cute little guys (I don't know how to describe them...) help you out, and you have control over them. They grow out of the ground, and more will grow as you find coins. By starting out with just a few of them, you'll search for ship parts and coins.

Eventually you'll have a whole mess of Pikmin, and all of them will grow to love you. Soon enough you can have control over a hundred Pikmin and have them do various tasks, and fight off the occasional enemy.

It looks interesting, but fun. Look for it this December.

Screenshots are coming soon!
