A '''saved game''' (also known as a '''save game''' or simply '''save''') is a record on the progress a player has made on a game thus far, which allows them to stop playing and later return to the point whence they left off. In the first two [[Pikmin series|''Pikmin'' games]], there are two types of information saved: a trio of playthrough progress slots and the global progress data. In ''Pikmin 3'', there is only one playthrough slot in a Wii U user account, however, in {{p3d}}, 3 save file slots were added to Story Mode. | A '''saved game''' (also known as a '''save game''' or simply '''save''') is a record on the progress a player has made on a game thus far, which allows them to stop playing and later return to the point whence they left off.

In the first two ''Pikmin'' games, whenever the game needs to be saved, a prompt appears asking the player if they wish to save the game; exceptions exist, detailed below. The player has the option to refuse the save operation – this is useful should the player have a bad [[day]] and not wish to keep it; the player can refuse the save and return to the [[saved game selection menu]] in order to re-load their progress and try again. Interestingly, the games also ask the player if they can save a new score at the end of a [[Challenge Mode]] level. | In the first two ''Pikmin'' games, whenever the game needs to be saved, a prompt appears asking the player if they wish to save the game; exceptions exist, detailed below.
