Pikmin 3 Now Allows For Stylus Controls After New Update

Pikmin 3 released last year on the Wii U as one of the first major games to arrive on the platform. We loved the game, but the control scheme was missing one key element, the ability to control Pikmin with a stylus. Luckily, Nintendo has released an update for the game that adds just that.

With this latest update, you can now throw Pikmin with ease by using your stylus. This just makes the gameplay even better and makes absolute sense based on the capabilities of the GamePad. For those that want to try this new control type out in Pikmin 3, you can easily change between control schemes from the + menu at any time. If you are planning on Mario Kart 8, don’t forget that Pikmin 3 is one of the free games that you can get with purchase, and a great choice it would be.
