Miyamoto wonders why Pikmin hasn't sold more and why people think the games are difficult (nintendoeverything.com)

Seems like time and time again, Nintendo is always trying to sell games to an audience of people who do not wish to play video games. For a sequel, I figured Nintendo should focus on their core audience of Pikmin fans but it seems like they're always changing things to appeal to people who don't play games while in return alienating the people who want more sophisticated gameplay and challenges.

What are your thoughts?

I hVe a hard enough time with 1 lynel. I don't think I could survive 5 even with a full inventory of potions.

I will say, it makes a checkpoint after each one you kill, so you dont have to restart from the beginning or anything if you die. And your teammates can help. I especially loved when the little bird dude would shoot them in the face and cause them to fall down. I abused the mechanic where you can ride them and stab them in the back a bunch if they fall down, b/c they're tough otherwise.
