On the 15th of July, 2008, during E3, Shigeru Miyamoto answered questions about a possible Pikmin 3:[6]
There isn't anything that we can announce right now, but I’m sure we’ll probably do something with it. The Pikmin team is, of course, still there and maybe we’ll have something to talk about before too long.
