How can they do this? I mean, they lead everyone to believe that they were making Pikmin 3, the they bitch slap us in the face. Also, moar info: Pikmin (1)(1.5) will be released on the wii on dec 25, 2008. Pikmin 2 (2.5) will be releaased sometime next year. THIS IS SO MUCH FAILER.

:To copy what I said at GameFAQs, I think I'd prefer GCN controls for this as opposed to anything they could implement on the Wii. If anything would be incredible with Wii controls, it's Metroid Prime 1/2 with Corruption-like controls. Now that is something I'd buy. But this; no. Like you, I hope there's a proper new game in the works.

:''Pikmin was also reconfirmed for the Nintendo Wii with Miyamoto adding the fact that the current build of Pikmin has the WiiMote working extremely well with it.''

== PIKMIN 3 Announcement ==

[[User:Paint Kirby|Paint Kirby]] 02:00, 4 November 2008 (UTC)Listen people PIKMIN 3 has been announced by Shigeru Miyamoto and in co-producment with Satoru Iwata the current CEO/President of NINTENDO and maker of the PIKMIN Game Series.

Even IGN has announced it as well and IGN isn't allowed to sell lies on their gaming site. SO just to clear your thinking of there making new Pikmin not a new PIKMIN game. They are making a new PIKMIN game. So just check your facts YOUR TRUE FACTS before you go posting stuff and getting people all freaked. you need more reliable sources.

~BOOMYA~

:Um...I'm pretty sure the article says that...unless you're interpreting "a new Pikmin" as something other than "a new Pikmin game." {{user:Jimbo Jambo/sig}}

:DOES NO ONE LISTEN! WE ALREADY SAID THAT! THE ARTICAL SAYS THAT! btw, are you the same Pikmin Rocks!!!? {{User:Crystal_lucario/Sig}}

On YouTube I saw this video called ''Pikmin 3 trailer Wii'' by lionpikmin. It is not a good video, but he does have these Pikmin stuffed animals and he has one that is a black Pikmin, a pink Pikmin, and a brown Pikmin. I think either he made them himself or Nintendo already has some new Pikmin planned out. -[[User:Pikmin Expert|Pikmin Expert]] 00:40, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

Miyamoto “Sorry” He Has No New Pikmin For Us Yet
By Stephen Totilo on June 3, 2009 at 12:15 PM

Last year, Shigeru Miyamoto let slip that Nintendo was making a new Pikmin game. Today, he told me and Brian Crecente that the project is moving ahead, but not at the pace some fans may have hoped.

“I’m sorry,” Miaymoto said when we asked him why the new Pikmin wasn’t at this E3. “Unfortunately we haven’t been able to expand the team size very much, because we’ve been working on so many different games that we’ve shown off at the show. So the team is working very hard, but it’s a bit of a small team.”

I asked, laughing, if there were more than two people on the team.

“Of course,” he said, chuckling. “The basic work that they’ve been doing quite nicely.” I tried to confirm whether the team was working on a full new game. He thought for a bit and said: “Yeah, and my basic idea is that the sense of the depth of the game and the simplicity of the control will all be there.”

== Epiphany / Deja Vu ==

I know Pikmin 3 isn't coming out for a while: some of you said 2 - 3 years, other keep saying later this year. I'm not sure if this means much, but I had an Eppifany about Pikmin 3. You might be saying I made this up, but we have no other leads of what Pikmin 3 will be like. Its like this:

Captains: Olimar, Louie, Mr. Pres., Robo Olimar (RO), and the weirdest yet, a purple pikmin that looks like Rambo, I dubbed it Commander Purple Pikmin (CPP).

Pikmin: All up pikmin so far.

Enemies: Red Bulborb

Locations: A place that looks like The Distant Spring except with for plants and 7 small stone towers

Battle: Olimar, Louie, Mr. Pres., vs RO (malfunctioned), CPP (evil).

[1] [2] [3]

.........[4]

[5] [6] [7]

Olimar was on 6 with reds. Louie on 5 throwing blues at CPP. Mr. Pres. on 4 throwing yellows at CPP. RO on 1 throwing whites at Olimar. CPP on 3 throwing purples at Olimar.

It may not be believable, but like I said before, its all the lead I got. And my Deja Vu's are usually 78% accurate, the other 22% is the things that people say.

== Pikmin for the 3DS? ==

I was randomly searching through videos on youtube for videos that were recorded by people at the E3. I happened to stumbble upon this video of a guy messing with the new Nintendo 3DS and the screen was a bit blury, but there was no mistaking that the scene he was sampling with PIKMIN! It doesn't look 3D because you're looking at it through the youtube screen, but still it looked awesome! I think that a Pikmin game could actually work on this handheld!

To see the video, look here: http://youtube.com/watch?v=GYnyBxVhK_c&feature=related

:There were also images of Super Smash Bros. (Brawl?), New Super Mario Bros. Wii, and Zelda: Twilight Princess. I can't say I think this really means anything, but could it work? Definitely yes. I can imagine using the stylus to toss Pikmin or direct them to specific spots, and having titanic bosses pop off the screen in 3D. I hope whatever Pikmin they're making right now is popular enough to warrant yet another game.. {{user:Jimbo Jambo/sig}} 01:57, June 28, 2010 (UTC)

:I don't think a Pikmin game for the 3DS is in the making, at all. In that video, all that was shown was just some 3D scenes: A trophy, the NSMB "family", Samus, some Pikmin, etc. It was just to show off the 3D capabilities.

:Doesn't seem too absurd. Miyamoto said the Wii would work well but not "YES FOR THE WII MY ETERNAL LOVE". I am right with believing that the Wii's minimalistic hardware has been one of its core shortcomings? I mean sure, it's cheaper and still looked okay, but in our current HD-hype... I wouldn't be surprised if Ninti used a series that hasn't done all too bad in terms of sales to try and boost this new console. On which I have yet to actally read about. I'll get to that now.--{{User:Prezintenden/sig}}

:On one hand, having ''Pikmin 3'' on Cafe would be great. It could be a launch title that shows how powerful the console is - the ''Pikmin'' games thus far have all been beautiful graphically, and they're just on the GameCube. Imagine a console with a lot more power showing the beauty of the Pikmin world. On the other hand, that means I'll have to buy a new console to be able to play the next game in the series... But this rumor is likely true. They gave no news nor footage nor anything about the game. They probably have the engine ready, as well as the storyline and such. Porting it to Cafe should be easy, and it'll just give them a chance to stay quiet about the game for longer. I'm pretty sure they want to stay silent about ''Pikmin 3'' for as long as possible, to troll, if you will.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3jcrSfSARuc The jellyfloat like creature is called a "Medusal Slurker" --[[User:Denevérek|Denevérek]] 20:05, 5 June 2012 (EDT)

== Official Trailer ==
Nintendo has uploaded an official trailer for the game. It shows it much closer up than what was seen during the conference. Interesting to note, the music in the trailer is a remixed version of the Pikmin 2 Title Screen music. Should we add this trailer to the page? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WxWIvaD2XQI --[[User:BeatOli|BeatOli]] 11:23, 6 June 2012 (EDT)

:Of course.  It's not the same trailer, though, so make sure to watch both to see everything (it has some extra bits and some bits missing). <span style="font-family:times;color:#080">'''''[[User:Greenpickle|G]][[User talk:Greenpickle|<span style="color:#050">P</span>]]'''''</span> 13:03, 6 June 2012 (EDT)

== Origins of Pikmin 3 ==

http://www.ign.com/articles/2012/06/11/the-origins-of-pikmin-3
I figure it could be implemented into the article in some way. <span style="border:2px solid #001;background-color:#00BFFF;font-timesnewroman;">

:I think the last bit, about there being local multiplayer (I wonder if this means story mode or challenge mode, co-op or competitive) but no online multiplayer, is worth adding, yes. <span style="font-family:times;color:#080">'''''[[User:Greenpickle|G]][[User talk:Greenpickle|<span style="color:#050">P</span>]]'''''</span> 18:41, 11 June 2012 (EDT)
 I noticed unannounced pikmin in the logo...THEY WERE PINK PIKMIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!They Have Wings, Blue eyes similar
To the white pikmin and blue flowers....EPIC WIN!!!

==Boss Battles==

They have also revealed one boss battle on the demo of the game released at E3. Shouldn't this be included? --[[User:Louie G.|Itsa me! Louie G.]] 18:34, 11 June 2012 (EDT)

:What do you mean, 'included'?  What, we say there's a boss battle in an E3 demo on this page?

:Also, do you have a source for what you just added about the controls? <span style="font-family:times;color:#080">'''''[[User:Greenpickle|G]][[User talk:Greenpickle|<span style="color:#050">P</span>]]'''''</span> 18:41, 11 June 2012 (EDT)

::If you were talking about the '''[[Armored Mawdad]]''' boss; yes, we already had info on that. Did you find info on a new enemy/boss that we are unaware of? {{User:PikminFanatic23/sig}}

::I saw some new names from the demo that aren't here on yet. Let me list them.
-Pyroplasmic Slooch (the magma slug enemy; worth 15 pokos)
-Skutterchuck (the Dweevil-like enemies that carry crystals, worth 5 pokos and requires 3 Pikmin to carry)
-Crystallized Wall (the glass walls that Rock Pikmin can break)

==Medusal Slurker==
The description of this enemy states that Rock Pikmin come from inside of them. It also says that it attacks the same way as a Jellyfloat. Isn't it possible that it simply sucked up the Rock Pikmin? Because this is speculation and nothing else, I am going to remove it. If it has been confirmed by a reliable source, feel free to add it again.-[[User:Los Plagas|Los Plagas]] ([[User talk:Los Plagas|talk]])

:I think why you may be confused is because the enemy description may have been a bit misleading... I don't think that Rock Pikmin originate inside Medusal Slurkers, but rather, they are first discovered inside of them. I also can't see how an enemy would actually ''produce'' Pikmin, as Onions and Candypops are the only known forms of Pikmin reproduction. I'll add a new description, clarifying this little mistake. {{User:PikminFanatic23/sig}}
Even though this seems rational, it's still only speculation, so I'm going to remove your description of that, no offense though, I just think we should wait before we say anything more about Rock Pikmin and Medusal Slurkers 'kay? [[User:Los Plagas|Los Plagas]] ([[User talk:Los Plagas|talk]])

:Hmm, I'm not sure how it's speculation, as Rock Pikmin are clearly first found inside a Slurker. Can you clarify that please? {{User:PikminFanatic23/sig}}
Rock Pikmin were first seen by us inside Slurkers, but that was in a trailer, and doesn't mean that you find them in a Slurker first in-game.[[User:Los Plagas|Los Plagas]] ([[User talk:Los Plagas|talk]])

::They're found there in the playable demo of the CM that's been available at E3 and places, so we should just put that. <span style="font-family:times;color:#080">'''''[[User:Greenpickle|G]][[User talk:Greenpickle|<span style="color:#050">P</span>]]'''''</span> 18:56, 17 January 2013 (EST)

== Page Image  ==

Should we replace the current logo with an indigo "3" with the orange "3"? It's more current and could have a significant meaning. <span style="border:2px solid #001;background-color:#00BFFF;font-timesnewroman;">

== Animation Series? ==

http://mynintendonews.com/2013/03/11/shigeru-miyamoto-helping-to-create-a-pikmin-cartoon-series/

Should this be mentioned on this wiki? [[User:Mine turtle|Mine turtle]] ([[User talk:Mine turtle|talk]]) 17:04, 12 March 2013 (EDT)

Yes, since you have an official source, I think this should be added. This is a significant development, and I'm sure many Pikmin fans would enjoy a Pikmin cartoon. -[[User:Los Plagas|Los Plagas]] ([[User talk:Los Plagas|talk]])

== New images? ==

Where did the pics of the tablet and the 3 captains walking come from? (And if you think that this topic does not help the article, it could prevent fake images from being posted her) [[Special:Contributions/71.108.65.190|71.108.65.190]] 19:58, 12 April 2013 (EDT)

== Nintendo Direct, May 17th 2013 info ==

Most importantly: there are 3 captains (nothing said about 4th one, maybe they appear later?), you collect fruit this time, fruit gives you juice, juice is needed to play longer (in comparison to Pikmin 1 with time limit set for once, you just need more fruit). Some less interesting details may be found on the video itself. --[[Special:Contributions/89.68.111.215|89.68.111.215]] 11:09, 17 May 2013 (EDT)

== Why can't I edit? ==

I want to correct the statement that only challege 
mode has been shown but their is no edit button at the
top of the page [[User:Mine turtle|Mine turtle]] ([[User talk:Mine turtle|talk]]) 13:36, 6 June 2013 (EDT)

:Are you sure? I can see and edit perfectly fine. Not to make you look stupid, but are you sure it's not there? Maybe you should look a little closer, because it ''should'' be there. If it really isn't there, try taking a screenshot and posting it here. -[[User:Los Plagas|Los Plagas]] ([[User talk:Los Plagas|talk]])

:It's because the page is protected from unregistered users, as well as unautoconfirmed users. I don't mean to offend you in any way, but you're not an autoconfirmed user yet. Once you are autoconfirmed, you can edit the page (sadly, I don't know the requirements to become autoconfirmed; I think you might need to be here for at least seven days and make at least ten edits, but again, I'm not completely sure). Try asking a sysop for what the requirements are. {{User:PikminFanatic23/sig}}

:What PikFan said. I don't remember what the requirements are, but I know we blocked it so that really new and inexperienced users wouldn't add unconfirmed facts or crazy speculation. In your case, you just want to correct something small, but the autoconfirmation is still needed. Maybe GP can manually confirm you. Either way, don't worry too much about that sentence: in 4 days, the E3 will roll around and this page will surely be severely revamped, that sentence included. — '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 08:13, 7 June 2013 (EDT)

::Autoconfirmed is 10 edits and 4 days (see [[User_talk:Porplemontage#reuploads]]).  I don't think there's a way to expedite it, but it won't take much work to get there either way.  (...Can't believe no-one made the edit.) <span style="font-family:times;color:#080">'''''[[User:Greenpickle|G]][[User talk:Greenpickle|<span style="color:#050">P</span>]]'''''</span> 04:33, 8 June 2013 (EDT)

== Sprays ==

I think something should be added about the sprays. Burgeoning Spiderworts return, as shown in gameplay footage, and in the recently uploaded images, you can see Winged Pikmin under the Ultra-Spicy Spray's influence. There is also the spray icon appearing near the top-left corner of the screen. {{User:PikminFanatic23/sig}}

If you actually have evidence (the footage), then nobody can revert it. Go ahead and add it! -[[User:Los Plagas|Los Plagas]] ([[User talk:Los Plagas|talk]])

:I wouldn't add it if there's nothing to indicate they're any different from before.  That is, I would only mention new or changed elements. <span style="font-family:times;color:#080">'''''[[User:Greenpickle|G]][[User talk:Greenpickle|<span style="color:#050">P</span>]]'''''</span> 09:06, 25 June 2013 (EDT)

== Creature Names ==

So no doubt at least some of you have seen the new Pikmin 3 content, including new enemy names.

Studying some videos, I've found the names of at least two new enemies; the giant bat-like creature we saw in the cave in named the "Vehemoth Phosbat". As for the new armoured creatures, the ground-based variation is named the "Joustmite".
I got my information by studying the following videos:

Vehemoth Phosbat, 3:58; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f63y1siGdw4

Joustmite, 2:56; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aA7kDK3E_a0
