'''E3_Play3/play_3''' is a beta map in [[Pikmin (game)|''Pikmin'']] left in the disc. This map may have showed up on an E3 Conference for people to play, or only for the trailer.

==Gameplay footage==
This area resembles the [[Impact Site]], and the [[Forest of Hope]] also. The only way to play it is by replacing the files, and that's the reason why the objects and music stay the same as in the first level.
The Pikmin haven't been configured onto this stage, and that's why they're confused on where to go when carrying stuff.

'''E3play_3''' is an unused area in ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]''. A near-duplicate of this area also exists, under the name '''play_3''', that uses a different shadow projection. It is an earlier version of [[The Forest of Hope]], devoid of water, and with some sections aligned differently. This map was seen in a 2000 E3 tech demo as the last map shown to demonstrate [[Pikmin]]. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IdQwnLW2eoY View tech demo.]
==Geography==
 
It has multiple routes, and lots of ledges and wooden platforms. There is a lot of fog in the background, similar to other beta levels.
It is found under '''/dataDir/courses/test/E3play_3.mod''', and can be replaced by [[The Forest of Hope]] in the European [[Region|version]] by using the following Action Replay code:
The ledges are similar from the Impact Site and Forest of Hope. The grass is actually taken from the Forest of Hope, but only slightly darker.

==Overview==
:''Note: For the sake of simplicity, it is assumed that the cardinal directions match the ones in The Forest of Hope.''
In terms of geometry, this area is identical to The Forest of Hope. The differences come mainly in the fact that all bodies of water are lacking, often replaced with high walls, and that a few sections are arranged differently. The only bodies of water that have not been replaced with high walls are the ones near the [[cardboard box]], where there is only flat ground. There is also flat ground in the easternmost area, creating a clear path between the area with the [[Shock Absorber]] from the rest. One important difference is the fact that the landing site only has one exit: the north one. There are walls enclosing the site in all other directions. The section holding the [[Burrowing Snagret]]s in The Forest Of Hope now has a large stump to the east of it. To the east of the stump is a small pathway leading downwards.

E3play_3 is the third and final area shown in the video. The [[Onion]]s can be seen on the higher ground where the [[Burrowing Snagret]]s are in ''Pikmin''. From the higher ground, [[Olimar]] is seen walking through plants to the lower ground with a small army of [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]], in which they wind up fighting a [[Bulborb|Spotty Bulborb]] and some [[Dwarf Bulborb]]s, while [[Shigeru Miyamoto]] mentions the game's textures are taken from several areas around his garden. A [[Yellow Wollywog]] and more Dwarf Red Bulborbs can be seen in the background crushing and killing Pikmin as the corpses are carried to the Onion.

===Final game===
{{#widget:YouTube|id=kl0pagZp6r4|width=400|right}}
E3play_3 is the first area shown in the video. Note that in the video, [[The Impact Site]] was replaced as opposed to The Forest of Hope. This results in the placement of the objects, as well as the general ambience, to match up less than it should.
