'''Pikmin 3''' is used to refer to the next, as of yet untitled, game in the [[Pikmin (series)|Pikmin series]], which was hinted at during E3 2008<ref name = "announced">[http://www.joystiq.com/2008/07/16/miyamoto-were-making-pikmin 2008 - Pikmin 3 announced - Joystiq]</ref>. Shigeru Miyamoto said, when asked about the Pikmin series, "We're making Pikmin." Nothing else about the Pikmin game in development was revealed, however. On 24th July 2008, Shigeru Miyamoto confirmed in an interview, "...They [the Nintendo development teams] are all working on new Mario, Zelda and Pikmin projects". The game will be on the Nintendo Wii<ref>[http://www.mywii.com.au/NewsDetail.aspx?id=2551 2008 - Pikmin 3 confirmed to be on Wii - MyWii]</ref>.
 
The announcement of the ''[[New Play Control!]]'' Pikmin games<ref>[http://www.computerandvideogames.com/article.php?id=198399 New Play Control! Pikmin - CVG]</ref> raised questions as to the feasibility of a Pikmin 3; following, in an IGN interview, it was made clear that the re-releases of Pikmin and Pikmin 2 are separate from Pikmin 3<ref>[http://uk.wii.ign.com/articles/915/915864p1.html Pikmin 3 confirmed - IGN]</ref>: ''Cammie Dunaway: It's not the Pikmin that Mr. Miyamoto referred to, no. Mr. Miyamoto referred to a new Pikmin, as opposed to the classics that are being re-released on Wii''.
 
During E3 2009, Miyamoto said the following when asked about the lack of mention of Pikmin 3 during the Nintendo press conference:<ref>[http://www.kotaku.com.au/2009/06/miyamoto-sorry-he-has-no-new-pikmin-for-us-yet E3 2009 - Pikmin team is small - Kotaku]</ref>
 
''I’m sorry. 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." He also mentioned that his "basic idea was that the depth and simplicity of the controls were still there.''
 
On 4th June, in a post-E3 2009 interview, Miyamoto had more to say on the game<ref>[http://uk.wii.ign.com/articles/991/991714p2.html 2009 - More on Pikmin 3 - IGN]</ref>:
 
''With Pikmin 3, we've got all the basics pretty much done. Now it's just a matter of how do we go in and fill that out? What sort of work do we give our designers? That team has been constantly been moving forward. So with a little time, we'll be able to make more progress and I hope we can bring you something that will make you happy.''
 
At a roundtable conference during E3 of 2011, Miyamoto revealed that the development for Pikmin 3 was moved to the [[Wii U]], the Wii's sucessor.

''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.''
