Prerelease information

File:Pikmin 3characters.png

"Character D" is one of the most infamous pieces of content that have been removed for the final version of Pikmin 3.

During production of the Pikmin games, some ideas were thought of, but ultimately discarded when the game was finally released. Some of those aspects can still be found in old trailers, magazine screenshots, and the like. Although some of the content remained in the final game, but went unused, these article focus on content that used to exist or was different before the games were concluded. Because these normally belong in the stages of development commonly called alpha and beta, fans call this "alpha information" or "beta information".
