{{p}} can have up to 3 saved games, and they are represented as 3 bubbles, numbered 1 to 3 from left to right. Each saved game is referred to as a "Ship's Log", and the title of the menu is "Choose a Data File". Each bubble has the day number of the respective saved game inside, just like the day counter on the in-game [[HUD]]. Highlighting a bubble displays additional information about the saved game on the bottom of the screen. The number of [[ship parts]] collected and the number of Pikmin in each type of [[Onion]] is displayed. The player can press {{button|gc|y|wii|1}} to copy the currently highlighted saved game onto another one, or {{button|gc|x|wii|2}} to erase it. | {{p}} can have up to 3 saved games, and they are represented as 3 bubbles, numbered 1 to 3 from left to right.

{{p2}} can have up to 3 saved games, and the menu used to select them is very similar to the one in ''Pikmin''. Each saved game is referred to as a "file", and the title of the menu is "Choose a Ship's Log". Each saved game bubble has the day number of the respective saved game inside, just like the day counter on the in-game [[HUD]]. Highlighting a bubble displays additional information about the saved game on the bottom of the screen. The total number of [[poko]]s collected, the number of [[treasure]]s collected, and the play time in hours and minutes is displayed. If the highlighted saved game is in a [[cave]] at the time of the last save, the cave's name and current sublevel number will be displayed. The player can press {{button|gc|y|wii|1}} to copy the currently highlighted saved game onto another one, or {{button|gc|x|wii|2}} to erase it. | {{p2}} can have up to 3 saved games, and the menu used to select them is very similar to the one in ''Pikmin''.

While {{p3}} has no saved game selection menu due to having only 1 saved game per Wii U account, its re-release {{p3d}} does. The 3 saved games are represented by 3 wide blue boxes arranged vertically. Each box contains information about the saved game, and no additional information is shown upon highlighting a box. The current day is shown on the left side of each box. Along the top of each box is the [[difficulty]] of the saved game and the date and time it was last saved. At the bottom of each box is yellow text showing the current Story Mode objective. {{button|switch|zr}} can be pressed to change the difficulty of the currently selected saved game, {{button|switch|y}} can be pressed to erase it, {{button|switch|x}} can be used to copy it, and {{button|switch|a}} can be pressed to select it, opening the [[day selection menu]]. | While {{p3}} has no saved game selection menu due to having only 1 saved game per Wii U account, its re-release {{p3d}} does.

{{hp}} can have up to 3 saved games, represented by the letters A, B, and C. The menu displays the 3 saved games as rounded boxes, with the letter on the left in a circle (colored red for A, yellow for B, and blue for C), and the highest-numbered [[area]] and total [[Sparklium]] count filling up the rest of the box (colored based on the color of the most recent sector on the [[sector selection menu]]). If every area has been completed with no Pikmin deaths, a gold Pikmin icon will appear to the right of the letter. Empty saved games have the text "New Game" instead. On the left side are 3 buttons, which switch between different functions of the menu. When "Play" is selected (which it is by default), tapping a saved game boxes will open the sector selection menu for that saved game. When "Copy" is selected, tapping a saved game will prompt the player to select another saved game spot to copy that saved game to, and selecting another spot will prompt the player to confirm their choice; doing so will copy the saved game. When "Delete" is selected, tapping a saved game will prompt the player to confirm that they are sure about deleting the saved game; selecting "Yes" will delete the saved game. | {{hp}} can have up to 3 saved games, represented by the letters A, B, and C.
