I think a Pikmin DS game would work out pretty well. It's not that hard to imagine, right? And it seems like Shigefumi Hino, project leader of the original Pikmin game has thought about it before, too.
In an interview with GameSpot, Hino was asked about how he thought a DS Pikmin would work for the system.
GS: While many assume a new Pikmin would be a perfect fit for the Wii, do you think a Pikmin game would work on the Nintendo DS?
SH: As Nintendo DS has its own unique advantages, it would be possible to create a gameplay-control mechanism which would be good for and unique to Pikmin.
Of course, this confirms nothing, but we can still hope. The rest of the interview talks about the upcoming New Play Control versions of the Pikmin games, coming to the Wii soon.
