"US7762893" (also published as EP1716897A2, EP1716897A3, US20060252531) was a design concept for a touch-based strategy game highly resembling the Pikmin series on a device that bears a remarkable resemblance to the Nintendo DS. [1] It was filed as a patent in January 2006 by Yuji Kando and Yutaka Hirameki[2], who respectively are the main programmers and level designers for Pikmin and Pikmin 2.
According to the patent, gameplay would involve players controlling Pikmin-like characters with a "pointing device", with the objective being to guide these units to other objects so that they can interact in certain ways. [3]
