This content differs from what can be found in the final game. The videos, screenshots, etc. shown here are about development versions, and although their exact labels are not known, fans commonly call them "beta", "alpha", "pre-alpha", or "prerelease" versions.


Some unused content also exists inside the final version, that hints at what sort of content was meant to appear in the final version, but that information is listed on the [[unused content]] page instead.

The following things are different from the final version:
*Gameplay happens in several [[area]]s that are not present in the final game, or are unused in the final, like [[tuto2]] and [[map_06]] in the final. What appears to be three deleted areas are shown; one area is cave-like and has a large ramp with a drop-off to the left, one area is plain and has many plants and [[Dwarf Bulborb]]s, and the final area shown is dark and plateau-like, and has a giant flat stump where a [[Beady Long Legs]] is seen.

*A [[Yellow Wollyhop]] that is falling over after being defeated can be seen squishing Pikmin when collapsing. When this happens, the Pikmin counter vibrates a bit. It's either a glitch, or a notable way to tell Pikmin are dying.

At the end of the trailer there is an extra bit of gameplay split into four quadrants:
*Top left panel: Olimar is moving through a plain with Pikmin, although most of the camera is obscured by vegetation. The camera then turns around to show a Dwarf Red Bulborb which promptly notices Olimar and walks towards him. The next clip is of a clip of Pikmin fighting the Beady Long Legs. Pikmin can be seen latched onto the legs of the Beady Long Legs as the clip ends.
*Top right panel: Olimar throws Pikmin at two strawberries in the west arena of [[map_06]]. The next clip is of Olimar moving around an ordered array of idle Pikmin.
*Bottom left panel: Olimar can be seen whistling Pikmin in a dark area. The next clip is of Olimar moving with a squad of Pikmin, then moving off a cliff downwards. An activated Yellow Onion can be seen nearby, on the cliff.
*Bottom right panel: Blue Pikmin knocking down a white bramble wall. The next clip shows Olimar moving through an area with the camera close to him, with a small army of Pikmin. The next clip shows the camera changing to face two Dwarf Red Bulborbs.

*An Ionium Jet, probably the [[Number 2 Ionium Jet|#2 Ionium Jet]] seems to be near the [[Yellow Wollyhop]]s in the lake part of [[The Distant Spring]]. As it is unlikely that the Pikmin would pass by there, this hints towards a different ship part location.

Some gameplay could be seen at the E3 2001 Tech Demo Show Off, with [[Shigeru Miyamoto]] playing the game, while a translator translates his speech live. The gameplay appears to initially take place in [[map_06]], then later [[tuto2]], starting from the larger area and finally what is presumably [[E3play_3]], starting from the high ground.

The following can be noted in the gameplay footage that comes after the trailer:
*The [[Menu#Pause|pause menu]] is consisted of a rough rectangle, made out of four constantly-moving cyan rectangles. The options "continue" and "exit" exist, in lowercase, and with a more lively font than normal.

==Early gameplay==
=== Japanese ''Pikmin'' website gameplay ===
{{#widget:YouTube|id=G8HPEYmrZAw|width=350|right}}
This video is from [https://www.nintendo.co.jp/ngc/gpij/ the Japanese ''Pikmin'' website] and could be downloaded in two formats: one for a higher quality version of the video and a lower quality version.
:[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G8HPEYmrZAw View video]
The following differences can be noted:
*An early HUD seen in some gameplay videos, trailers, and screenshots is used.
*This video was taken at the same time that the [[enemy reel]] was created, considering the location of the [[Bulborb|Spotty Bulborb]]s and the [[Lapis Lazuli Candypop Bud]], as well as the slightly different terrain in [[The Distant Spring]].
*It is always day 4 in almost all clips, except for the last clip, where it is instead day 7.
*The [[Gravity Jumper]] is present instead of the [[Eternal Fuel Dynamo]].
*Like in the [[#Trailer 3|third trailer]], [[Yellow Pikmin]] and [[Blue Pikmin]] are unlocked before the second bramble gate is even broken down.
*The [[Bulborb|Spotty Bulborb]] emits two souls after dying, presumably due to a glitch.
*There are [[Yellow Wollyhop]]s in [[The Forest Navel]].
*Pikmin sometimes shake violently while [[carrying]] an object, presumably a glitch. The camera seems to zoom in to take note of this.
*Some drowning Red Pikmin jump out of the [[water]] on their own, after a long delay.
*The camera's closest level of zoom is very close, and lower down than in the final game.
=== IGN ''Pikmin'' GameCube gameplay video ===
{{#widget:YouTube|id=7gz6fUhxx0w|width=350|right}}
This forty second video posted by IGN does not show much, but differences are present.
:[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7gz6fUhxx0w View video]
The following differences can be noted:
*It is day 1 in both clips of both areas, which indicates that the gameplay might be in a debug mode.
*[[tuto2]] is shown to be an actual area in the game (or at least a [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin)|Challenge Mode]] area, which would indicate the Challenge Mode banner is not present yet) and is the first area shown.
**In the clip depicting [[tuto2]], Pikmin are thrown at a red 20 pellet but then do nothing, which presumably means the carrying engine is unfinished.
*[[E3play_3]] is shown again, but the landing site is instead in the [[Armored Cannon Beetle]] arena.
** Two already built [[climbing stick]]s are present to the left of the Red [[Onion]] and appear to serve no purpose.
