The website for Nintendo's new production company, Nintendo Pictures, has just been launched. It was previously reported that Nintendo had acquired animation company Dynamo Pictures and had intended to use it for developing content with Nintendo's IPs. The website goes into more detail about what exactly the company will be producing. The website states that Nintendo Pictures aims “to have consumers around the world learn about Nintendo characters through video, and to create unique videos that will remain in their memories forever.” The focus will be on video content using Nintendo characters, and it appears that motion capture services will also be a part of the company's output.
Fans speculate that this will be similar to SEGA"‘s animation studio Marza Planet. Maria Planet is an animation studio owned by SEGA that mostly helps out with games, particularly those in the Sonic franchise. They have also helped out on the Sonic movie franchise as well. It is thought that Nintendo Pictures will help out with cutscenes for Nintendo titles and will also be creating shorts featuring Nintendo's properties. It is unknown and unlikely that this new Nintendo Pictures has anything to do with the upcoming Super Mario movie being produced by Illumination Entertainment.
