Pikmin: Saving Hocotate Freight

Pikmin: Saving Hocotate Freight is a game developed for the Wii U.

Plot
NOTE: Chapter One will only be here.

After the events of Pikmin 3, Hocotate Freight ran out of spaceships. Captain Olimar asked Alph, who was launching a BO-10 with a special comm satellite, to establish connections with PNF-404 to build him a spacecraft launched atop BO-10 for transport to PNF-404 with Louie and some cargo. He accepts and at time they lifted off.

As they approach their landing site, a malfunction causes Louie's seat to jump off. Fortunately, Olimar lands safely near where the Quaggled Mireclops originally was located. But where could Louie be?

Chapter 1: Captain Olimar has landed safely and started search for Pikmin. This time, he wasn't lucky, he has to walk to an open spot to get his Pikmin. Also, it wasn't Red Pikmin, instead it's Blue. He called Louie, but there was no contact. Louie has lost connection with Olimar. Olimar moved to raising up the numbers of the Pikmin and searched for The Ship's engine.

It crashed into the water when the Quaggled Mireclops shot them down. He got to it and collected it. The only problem is, how could he get it up there? Luckily, some leaves made a bridge to the crashed spaceship. Olimar stopped by the ship, then hesitated about how annoying will he be again. He continued, then The Ship started up then started blabbering again.

Meanwhile... Louie has crash landed in a familiar place. He searched around for Pikmin, but none on his left nor his right. Then he heard stomps, a Bulborb must be near him but that Bulborb is under attack by some Pikmin...

TBC in Chapter Two very soon.

Gameplay
In the Wii U, there is two new gameplay mechanics. One is that to upgrade The Ship. The second new control is if you throw a Cyan Pikmin near a Pikmin suffocating by ice, that Pikmin will try to save him. Controls are the same as in Pikmin 3 but the controls, graphics and A.I. are more enhanced. The goal is to save, and also find treasure to buy back, the S.S. Dolphin, which 30,000 Pokos are required for. This mission is for Captain Olimar only. As for Louie, he sets to buy his own spaceship which he loaned at 15,000 Pokos.
