Wii to Wii U Data Transfer w/ Pikmin

Absolutely love the little touches Nintendo added to the new Wii U! Something as simple as a data transfer from the Wii is now super memorable and cute.

The fact that the nintendo team had the work to make this whole animation just to represent a data transfer is simply amazing

[@StormsparkPegasus]

Yep...the Wii U ended up being a colossal failure in the end due to how underpowered it was, but doing an animation like this when any other company would've just had a progress bar, was really creative.

[@melley420]

@@StormsparkPegasusI personally think that it had more to do with the poor marketing and social media really coming up around this time than it being “relatively underpowered” the graphics where actually pretty good. I think Mario Kart 8 still looks good till this day.

Such a interesting device, not only do pikmin live within, but rabbitz are inside my wii controllers aswell

[@LifeOutward]

Thanks for capturing/uploading this! It's incredibly cute and interesting, and given that it's from a transfer utility from two dead platforms, it absolutely had the potential to be lost media. How cool!

[@FerreroMan]

That’s why I love Nintendo forever

[@SwagWizard555]

Imagine you're someone who hasn't ever heard of pikmin in your whole life, and you try transfering data from Wii to Wii U and all of a sudden instead of a loading screen some random tiny creatures are seemingly stealing your game save files and putting them into their rocket ship.

Bingo battle map in pikmin 4? Anyone?

[@OOFUS4103]

When Nintendo actually had charm in their console’s menu and services…

HE HAS PLAYED DE BLOB 2 MY LIFE IS COMPLETE

[@dutchboyization]

***** I know the person who made the blob 1 and 2

[@GarrEngieMapping]

Mart Tiggelman IS IT TRUE????

[@mrgzola25]

I remember doing this years ago and being transfixed on the music and animation. Only Nintendo can make transferring data a beautiful experience.

[@ShadowRaptor1O1]

Wld've been cooler if the Pikmin wld've came into the WiiU world as HD instead of looking them same...

[@Nt249]

It won't do that because its technically emulating a wii

[@BenSchubert1995]

Much like the Wizard of Oz with Dorothy in black and white?

[@riptidedragon7974]

It's cleaver and charming its things like this that used to separate Nintendo from all the other consoles they used to have so much charm in there menus and systems themselves its a shame they seem to have lost the ability to or just no longer care about adding charming rememberable things like this instead going the opposite direction with the switch which has the most boring console main menu I've ever seen let alone cute animations like this

[@thebuddah1253]

Pikmin is secretly Nintendo's favorite child
