I'm looking for any pc games similar to the Pikmin series. I've been desperately craving Pikmin, but I don't own any Nintendo consoles other than a 3ds. I know Hey Pikmin! just came out and while I am interested in buying it eventually, I'm looking for something more in the style of the "normal" Pikmin games.

I've never played any of them but have heard Overlord is very similar to Pikmin.

Looks like I already own Overlord. I'll check it out, thanks for the suggestion!

years ago I noted that Pikmin had a windows executable on the disk - and it can actually run on windows :P

it is a pain in the ass - but many have tried and succeeded :)

Ah, I'd love to do this, but I own the Wii version of the game :(
Guess I'll just use an emulator, it's close enough.
Thank you for the reply!

good luck

Thanks for sharing that!
I know people find songs and other cool stuff on disks, but a windows executale? That's a first. For me at least.

not trying to talk about piracy, but is it posible to emulate? I don't know if overlord is like pikmin, but i'ts quite funny. Overlord 2 is pretty much the same.

Yeah, I'm probably going to cave and buy a Wii (as mine was stolen). Or just use an emulator. I'm installing Overlord right now, hopefully I like it enough that it warrants a purchase of Overlord 2. Thank you for the suggestion

One of the few changes from 1 to 2 was the minions could use mounts, but were mostly aesthetics. The ere less quality humour, but basically it's the same formul.a

If you can, try overlard with the expansion.
