I’ve been playing for a year and a half and I have never seen a new backpack design. The default one is so ugly and basic in my opinion, I wish they would release some different styles or let us take it off. I think it would be nice to have some that look more like regular backpacks or something cute and girly.

For real, I would love to have a different backpack or even a purse!! And I would love it if we could display them on our Miis publicly since our normal planter bags are never shown to friends and only to ourselves.
We could customize our bags too, like showing off or pinning our badges and patches we’ve gotten from events/achievements! They could even make little keychains we can put on our bags

Yes!! perhaps we could get a golden backpack reward in the pikmin bloom 5 years celebration event!! That would be awesome.
There is a Pikmin 3 Onion-Style backpack that came out with the Oatchi costume, which is different from the basic one. Not sure if you can still redeem that but give it a try here…
I don’t care much about the look but I do agree getting the option of taking the bag off if that can help optimizing the game in walk view to some extent… 
I want a backpack with a window for a pet to peer out of, or maybe a Pikmin could ride inside.
They could also add bag charms for players to collect…
