Because | Throughout {{p3}}, there are pieces of text written in '''[[Koppai]]te'''. The language used consists of unique symbols which, together, form words. A parallel between it and the English language can easily be made, given that characters in Koppaite can be mapped to Latin letters, and with that, a direct English message can be obtained. Although largely original, the characters used in the language are similar to Latin characters, but with some changes. | ||
Because the text behind this language cannot be easily deciphered by players who do not know the cipher, sometimes its contents are secretive and special. For instance, on the [[Menu#Area selection|area selection menu]], when the player clicks an area, some mysterious text will appear on the top-left, with what appears to be comments from the developers. The information behind some texts does not seem to match up with reality, indicating that it was true in [[Pikmin 3 prerelease information|prerelease versions]]. | |||

This unknown character only appears on the [[Mission Mode]] and [[Bingo Battle]] menus, and its meaning cannot be decided from the context alone. | ||
