Nintendo is still the king of left field, no doubt. This is greatly unexpected even for nintendo though.
Emio is the next console. You put the cartridge in his mouth and a projection of the game comes out his eyes. The "gimmick" of the system is that it's a creepy person who you have to keep in your house just standing there in your living room.

The M rating is particularly interesting. Most games that are in development that would be rated M have a completely different disclaimer, where as this is just a straight up M rating. Considering you can't really get a game rated until much later in development, this implies whatever it is has been worked on for quite a while already, and is probably closer to being released than not.

I think he's mostly joking honestly, and I kinda gotta agree. The editing is a lil spooky, but it does have sliiiiight vibes of a creepypasta chadacter that a 10 yo came up with in 2011

He's really putting the haunted in Haunted Chocolatier.
Now we know! It’s a series in Famicon Detective Club!!
If indeed Nintendo-developed or published, Emio/Smiling Man could very well eventually be a Super Smash Bros. character.
It's Count Bleck, the gritty reboot

"Emio" is a shortening of "emi otoko" (笑み男), which means smiling man.
It's non specific action figure, he's super pissed that he's been forgotten.
My god I would love to see in-house Nintendo polish on a proper horror game
A Potentially New Nintendo IP that's a Horror game could be really interesting.
Oh yeah this is weird as hell Feels like an arg
I’m just happy to finally get a new major Nintendo IP
At this point I wouldn't be surprised if the next trailer has the 'a Hideo Kojima game' logo there. That man is busy on PS, Xbox and Pc, why not Nintendo

In a few months, you'll be able to download a demo to that's just a shot of the floor, then Smiling Man walks across.
finally putting those sanity meters to good use I see
Not Arlo entering his spooky era
I thought this was a Persona 2 remake for a second.

If I had to guess this'll be a Switch 2 launch title meant to draw in a more mature demographic, weird that they would start teasing it this early but this years schedule is packed so I cant think of anything else.

That's kind of what I thought too and I think it's a good move at this point. A marketing strategy that commonly gets levied against them is 'well your games are for kids, our games are for mature gamers'. Well it makes sense then to remind us that their mission statement isn't just games for kids, it's games for everyone.

It's murkier than that because there are things that seem to indicate it's not Bloober, like them stating it's being published under their internal Broken Mirror Games label, but then the single Tweet Broken Mirror Games has made is one congratulating Nintendo on selling 140 million Switch systems with a piece of weird horror concept art? And Bloober's been weirdly open about Project M being a thing, even confirming it went into production in February 2023 and then saying they pulled developer Draw Distance off the project while still targeting 2024. Everything about that is weird and unlike Nintendo, and yet the Japanese website for Emio's files are tagged with Ms.

NO, not Bloober, been disproven. Bloober is a western dev, and western devs don't use japanese text in their game and trailers lol. This was made by Japanese devs. This was made by Nintendo.

This game was probably made in-house
I just so happened to watch the trailer like a minute after it came out and was so confused. I'm glad everyone else immediately thought the same.
8:20 That sounds awesome, like they did with the third person shooter genre for splatoon
#EmioForSmash
Is Nintendo going back to what they did in the 80s and 90s to where they made commercials are just completely insane if so I’m here for that
I'm starting to think that Emio is not the man under the bag, but the paper bag itself
this is the most interested i've been in a nintendo project in years. please be a first party horror game
ITS RHYTHM HEAVEN TRUST ME
WELCOME BACK MONO FROM LITTLE NIGHTMARES 2!
its famicon detective club 30 years later
My crackpot theory is that this is their completely wild way to announce the next system...
Emino is the Hash Slinging Slashers Cousin!
That trailer looks like what I'd expect of a modern indie horror game. If you haven't seen those in a while, they've gotten surprisingly good quality, and they're crazy in their diversity. But what tells me is that this could be anything! 15 seconds isn't much to go off of! Look again, his drawn smile changes in the last shot
Happy Mask guy desperate for work since the Ben Drowned royalties dried up.
Reminds me of "we are nintendo. You cannot beat us"
I love this, it's so far out there for Nintendo, I need more
Welp, it’s Famicom Detective Club.
I’m getting strong early-PS3-advertising vibes from this. Maybe it’s the first volley of promotion for the Switch successor?
