A busy year for Nintendo
No respite for the Japanese studio in 2022! In effect, the exits followed one another on Nintendo Switch. With, among them, very nice surprises !
At the same time, the video game publisher was able to celebrate a very nice record. And yes, can you imagine that the Switch has recently become more popular than another legendary console ! A great feat!
But on the other hand, the company has also encountered difficulties. His great competition Super Smash Bros. for example had to be canceled, provoking the anger of the fans.
In addition, several large franchises have seen their postponed exits. This is for example the case of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom or Metroid Prime 4. Everything is not so rosy at Nintendo!
So to bounce back from this perilous situation, the Kyoto studio made a big announcement ! Indeed, he revealed to his fans the release of an animated film on Mario Bros.. What a surprise !
Well that bad news has just fallen about her, Nintendo does not intend to stop there however! Hold on tight, because Link could also appear in the cinema in a few years! MCE TV tells you more…

Meanwhile, Chris Meledandri (CEO of Illumination Entertainment) has just been named outside director of Nintendo’s board. which portends a long-term partnership. Decidedly, the French know-how is exported wonderfully!
According to our colleagues from Giant Freakin Robotwork on the very first movie of The Legend of Zelda would have already started. And there is no doubt that the film crews will have their work cut out for them, to satisfy the demanding fans of the franchise! No room for error!
In addition, you should know that Nintendo’s ambitions are great. Indeed, the studio wishes neither more nor less compete with the giant Disney ! We can say that his teams are fearless!
And if all goes well, we could even be entitled to a movie about donkey kong, within the next few years. We look forward !
