Regardless of your personal opinion on The Super Mario Bros. Movie, it’s safe to say it’s been a massive success. Last week, it was named the highest grossing film of 2023 so far and the största videospelsanpassningen genom tiderna, which isn’t bad going!

We’ve already speculated där nästa del av Mario-filmerna kan gå härnäst, but given how well the mustachioed man’s debut on the silver screen has gone, it wouldn’t be surprising if more than one of these theories turns out to be correct down the line.

There’s plenty of material within the Mario universe for the movies to cover, but what about a Nintendo Cinematic Universe? There’s already been plenty of Pokémon movies, both animated and live-action (well, just the one in the latter department än så länge).

Filmtrailern för Super Mario Bros.

Kanske kan det finnas en film som följer Samus på ett jobb för att bekämpa rymdpiraterna. Eller en Animal Crossing-film där vi upptäcker ursprunget till nötköttet mellan Tom Nook och Redd. Heck, jag skulle se en film där Kirby bara åker på ett sött äventyr med Waddle Dees i 90 minuter (Mouthful Mode skulle vara önskvärt men inte nödvändigt).

Now, while it’s not exactly prime for plotlines, the meeting of Nintendo franchises within the Super Smash Bros. series is the perfect kind of gathering we need for an Avengers-style team. The SSB games even have single-player modes with cutscenes and plot. How anyone can top hp_hollowtones‘ genius script for Wario in Subspace Emissary är dock bortom mig.

Is the Nintendo catalogue not “serious” enough for a cinematic universe? Or maybe you think it’d work because of how lighthearted it is? Do you love or hate the idea of Mario, Link and Zelda teaming up to defeat Bowser and Ganondorf? Let us know your thoughts! Would you like a Nintendo Cinematic Universe?

(And Nintendo, if you’re here, I think you should make a movie about Kirby and Ditto becoming friends and accidentally wrecking havoc across Popstar Planet and Kanto, and it’s up to Captain Olimar and his Pikmin to save the day and restore order. DM me and we can work something out.)
