Pikmin 3 prerelease information
Pikmin 3, like other games, had a Beta version that never made it to the public. While no one has been able to go into the game's files to get unused content as of now, we do know some Beta elements that never made the light of day, by trailers and footage.
Unused and Changed Characters
Brittany
Brittany had a minor change. In the Beta Version, Brittany's suit was yellow, and her concept art was as well. In the final version, her suit was changed to Red.

There was one character that never made it into the game in any footage whatsoever, and was scrapped. He was showed off at E3 2012, and all that was underneath him was D. With an interview with Miyamoto, he stated that there were 3 captains playable at one time, suggesting Character D was scrapped, since he was never shown in any footage. Since Alph, Brittany, and Charlie all had the first letter of their name under their art at E3 2012, it is sometimes suggested by fans that the characteristics of Character D were given to Drake. It is unknown if this is true, but it is slightly ruined when one realizes Drake shows little character traits.
