Thanks, it's fixed now.

Co-op runs are currently tracked on the Category Extensions board, as there doesn't seem to be much interest in it, and we didn't want to clutter the main board with too many unnecessary sub-categories. Feel free to submit any co-op runs there!

I know what you mean. There's a category for that under Misc.

ILs are different, and not tracked on speedrun.com. The IL leaderboard can be found at chr.mn (Mission Mode Score Leaderboard link on the side)

There is. Look under misc.

As I said, ILs are on chr.mn. That site is better suited for score-based ILs anyway. There's a link to it in the sidebar of Pikmin 3 Deluxe.

In addition to chr.mn that LPhantom mentioned, there are also categories for Collect Treasure, Battle Enemies, and Defeat Bosses RTAs on the main Pikmin 3 Deluxe board (i.e. play through all of Row 1 in a row)

Leaderboards for Mission Mode ILs can be found by clicking the Mission Mode Score Leaderboard tab in the sidebar. and there is a category for Defeat Bosses, it's under Misc.

Please leave your ideas here for more categories!

Can we get Pikmin 3 Deluxe Category Extensions tagged as such? Thanks!

Once we have enough ideas for Category Extensions, All Badges would fit great on that page, imo.

Hi everyone! With the recent English translation of the Japanese site chr.mn/pik4 (See Mission Mode Score Leaderboard on the sidebar), we are considering removing the IL leaderboard here, and shifting focus for ILs to chr.mn.

I believe this will be better for the community in the long run, to have a single leaderboard that is more complete, rather than two separate leaderboards. This will be the solution for Pikmin 3 Deluxe, however, seeing as the IL leaderboard in Pikmin 3 Wii U is more established here, I wanted to get everyone's thoughts about this before making any changes.

There's no plan to add Demo% or any similar category to the leaderboards. See Kap's above response. It's a category that will be completely obsolete in 2 days. That's why the only category we've added so far is the IL for Tropical Forest.

Essentially, what we are doing for individual Mission Mode levels is, instead of hostin the leaderboard here on speedrun.com, there is another site (chr.mn) that hosts Mission Mode high scores for the entire Pikmin series, and we will be using that site for Individual Levels. There is a link to that site on the sidebar (Mission Mode Score Leaderboard).

Full-game runs of Story Mode (i.e. Any%, Good Ending, All Fruits) and longer Mission Mode categories (i.e. Row 1, All Levels, etc.) will still be here on speedrun.com, chr.mn is only for Individual Levels.

Because this is the page for Pikmin 3 Deluxe. The reason the only category we have so far is Collect Treasures Tropical Forest is because that is the only category that we are planning to have that is also possible to do in the demo. For example, we don't want to add Beat The Demo, or something like that because the category will be obsolete once the full game comes out. I hope that makes sense!

To be honest, I just forgot to add co-op. It's up now, feel free to submit your runs!

Can you add https://www.speedrun.com/pikmin2ce as a Category Extension for Pikmin 2? Thanks!

Basically what ROMaster2 said. There's nothing at all for this game yet, do whatever you want for now. If there is a bunch of activity for this game at some point in the future, we may revisit whether or not to allow emulator, but since that's clearly not the case, go nuts.

So, this game is hilarious and I wish I could run it more, but the categories as is are a little.. lacking? All stages is fun but it's really really short and it doesn't really show off all of the funny stuff the game has to offer. And all memories is just.. well... too much grinding one stage.

So I came up with some ideas for some extra categories that might be more fun, show off the funny text in the game, and might be better in a marathon setting.

The first one is 99%, where it's basically all memories but minus the one where you have to grind for 30 minutes. The only downside to that is that it doesn't even show off all the stages.

Another one, a little more strange for speedrunning, is one I'm calling "Magical Training & Getting" which is all stages, plus all of the training stages. Including the training stages makes the run slightly longer while showing off more of what the game has to offer including Teruko Chan and the funny trick names, as well as more of the funny text.

Let me know what you guys think about adding those categories? I'd love to try to get this game into marathons (not necessarily just GDQs) for its humor quality, but the current categories are just lacking the right amount of game.

It's a well-known fact that VBA doesn't emulate GBC properly, so if you did re-merge console and emulator, you'd need to have proof that you're running on the proper emulator (see Pokemon Red/Blue). This would disqualify literally every emulator run that's on the leaderboard right now. If they're going to be combined, that's the only fair way to do it that I can see.
