I wonder what Nintendo has up its sleeve… It also makes me realise we haven’t had a Mario game for a while now, just Mario Party Superstars recently, which was only a remaster and not a platformer anyway.
My hope is that they’ve realised that Chris Pratt is a terrible idea and they’ve recast/rewritten the film, but I imagine that’s unlikely. I’m not sure whether that means it’s going to be delayed or Nintendo are being Nintendo even when it comes to movies but it’s very odd. That’s pretty weird for a movie isn’t it? Reading about the Nintendo theme park in America, I completely forgot that the Mario animated movie is supposed to be coming out this year and we still haven’t seen so much as a screenshot of it, let alone a trailer. Now I worry that they’ll just go full speed into making live service games, which is a direction that really worries me. Sony need another big hitter to hype up and at the moment all they’ve got is God Of War Ragnarök, which still hasn’t got a release date.
