Combining this with the fact that Nintendo has stated that their next gaming platform (codenamed "NX") will launch globally in March of 2017, and they will be transitioning their resources towards the new hardware, it is highly likely that ''Pikmin 4'' will never release on the Wii U, and is now in development for the NX.{{cite web|http://segmentnext.com/2016/06/25/transition-wii-u-nx-will-smooth-optimistic-nintendo/|Transition from Wii U to Nintendo NX Will Be Smooth: The Optimistic Nintendo|SegmentNext|published={{date|25|June|2016}}}}
In light of this news, along the fact that Nintendo has begun allocating their resources towards their new gaming platform, ''Codename NX'', which scheduled for a global release in March 2017, it is now feasible that ''Pikmin 4'''s development has been moved from Wii U to the NX.{{cite web|http://segmentnext.com/2016/06/25/transition-wii-u-nx-will-smooth-optimistic-nintendo/|Transition from Wii U to Nintendo NX Will Be Smooth: The Optimistic Nintendo|SegmentNext|published={{date|25|June|2016}}}}
