''Pikmin 3'', like most other Nintendo games, allows users to write posts or make drawings on the community, including pausing the gameplay with {{button|wiiu|home}} and creating a post using one of the two screens at the time the game was paused. Besides that, ''Pikmin 3'' also allows players to look around using the Wii U GamePad, by use of the in-game [[KopPad#Camera|KopPad camera]], and by pressing {{button|wiiu|a}}, a picture will be taken, and after a brief delay, the ''Pikmin 3'' Miiverse post submission page opens up, with the photograph ready for upload. The player can set their mood, and add their own text and/or drawing to the submission. Depending on what was focused, the submission will automatically be tagged with one of the following tags:

Depending on what was focused, the submission would automatically be tagged with one of the following tags:
*'''People''': If the photo focuses on a character, playable or otherwise.
