This Wii update of the original game adds motion support, and already came out in Japan, Europe and Australia in 2009.<br/><br/><img src="http://wiimedia.ign.com/wii/image/article/122/1223712/new-play-control-pikmin-2-20120425113704216-000.jpg" /><br/>Do your thing, little buddies!<br/><br/>This news comes from the latest Nintendo Power, which confirms that New Play Control! Pikmin 2 will be hitting U.S. shelves by the end of the year. Not a bad way to pass the time until Pikmin 3 comes out, if you ask us... though it's a little strange we had to wait three years for this title.<br/><br/><DIV CLASS="IGNE_divider"></DIV><br/><br/><i>Audrey Drake is an Associate Editor of IGN.com and a proud member of the IGN Nintendo team.
