'''Data files''' are collectibles scattered around the surface of [[PNF-404]] in ''[[Pikmin 3]]''. They appear as glowing yellow [[Wikipedia:Secure Digital|SD cards]] that float in place. Data files may contain text and/or images, and there are 120 of them in all. There are 88 that must be physically picked up and 11 more received by doing certain optional tasks (such as collecting a [[Spacesuit Upgrades|spacesuit upgrade]]). The remaining 21 are automatically obtained during progress through the main story.

Once one has been collected, it disappears from its spot, and is added to the [[Exploration Notes]] menu on the [[KopPad]]. This app is unlocked after one data file is collected, and keeps a collection of all obtained data files. When the active [[leader]] touches a data file, a brief [[cutscene]] takes place, where the gameplay pauses, the leader is seen celebrating with joy, and the data file is opened automatically. If, however, an inactive captain touches a data file, the object will still be collected, but the gameplay will not pause, nor will the file be opened – instead, the leader in question will announce they have found a data file.
