Interesting stuff, if we're working off conjecture.

Man though pretty sure Ninty upgraded from ninjas to running their own NERV/SEELE branch to third impact leakers so good luck to em

The lack of Zelda hurts.

The presence of Mario and Metroid heals.

There is another page of flipnote studio images that has the skyward sword pirate.

there is also one with mario on his lonesome AND one with mario (wearing cappy) with luigi.

actually, if anyone wants to bookmark this post: guarantee the june direct uses a mixture of mario and flipnote as the theme-- parts of the direct are actually going to be made using flipnote.

Wonder if there'll be name shaming again.
But then there will be legal action and we would know who it is anyway.

Howdy,

I compiled the images/theories in a post in the Flipnote thread, which also has other pics that hint at Skyward Sword etc. (So dampflokfreund you will be happy they mention Zelda but maybe not happy which Zelda is mentioned...)

A Switch version of Flipnote Studios (Nintendo's drawing/clip making app) may have leaked (UP: April Fools joke)

True. Nintendo probably also wanted Switch to be seen as a "home console you can take on the go" during its early years and smaller games like Brain Training or Clubhouse Games would have been detrimental. In a way, the Switch Lite + Animal Crossing combo has been like a second launch of...

Congrats on leaking the most boring stuff I've seen in my life and going to jail for it.

Only explanation I can think of is that this version of Flipnote is being made by skip Ltd. and they're just paying tribute to one of their older games

I think they probably just had some Nintendo artists do Flipnotes based off of games they worked on, hence the various different art styles themed after a very scattershot selection of characters and games. I seem to recall previous Flipnote apps came preloaded with sample animations like these.

That Thousand Year Door drawing on the bottom is fantastic; is there supposed to be a remake? Also, that Pokemon Mystery Dungeon drawing with Kubfu is interesting... but what's the Pokemon in the center? Is it another gen 8 one?

We've had rumors of a TTYD remake for a long time - even one that would hit 3DS - and the leaks yesterday mention a new PM in the style of the original games will be released this year (consistent with other recent rumors). Maybe the original characters will return.

May I ask where to see the Mario on his lonesome one is?

If this is true, it would not be the first time Nintendo internal servers got hacked and info leaked, as in 2016 a person hacked Nintendo servers and obtained info about Nintendo Switch before its release:

www.justice.gov

California man who hacked into Nintendo servers to steal video games and other proprietary information pleads guilty

Seattle – A 21-year-old Palmdale, California, man pleaded guilty today in U.S. District Court in Seattle to federal crimes related to his computer hacking scheme and his possession of child pornography found on his digital devices, announced U.S. Attorney Brian T. Moran.

I would not be surprised if more leaks appear in the following days...

Lmao that the Nintendo hack took precedence over the secondary charge

THIS MAN HACKED NINTENDO!!! Get him!!!!

Also he had child porn

If all those flipnote images actually tease other games, then some interesting things could be happening. Shame none of them seem to point to an F-Zero game or more on Bayonetta 3. Anyway, right now we only have this flipnote studio stuff and pokemon which is pretty unremarkable.

Thanks, I actually would be happy with a Skyward Sword remaster! It has been a while since I played it.
The game could look really gorgeous with updated lighting and upscaled textures. Maybe they can remove some of the gameplay annoyances.

Those are a LOT of pages of dots. Also the Pikmin one is in a different position which makes this all very strange

They're different positions because they're different sectinos of the app.

This is like your stopred animations pages or something. You got different colors, you got the frog icon in the corner, you got a folder.

This looks like an animation shop, or something. We have green colors, there's prices on everything, totally different menu options

The bottom middle one could be something like Luigi's Mansion DLC

Is this the internal servers being hacked or just flip note leaking? Because Pokemon stuff leaking/getting hacked is fairly routine so the fact that both leaked at once could just be a coincidence. Would explain the arbitraryness of it all.

I've looked at the images long and hard and I'm betting all my chips on real.
I legitimately hope the leaker has covered his tracks because oof.

I don't see any evidence to "internal dev servers" being hacked? A single leaked app from Nintendo and one DLC from Game Freak means nothing.

So is this thread have to be locked now, as someone hacked Nintendo's servers and ERA is "sharing" the content?? I'm not a lawyer but could ERA be in legal trouble??

enjoy it, it's one of the pinnacles of the medium

I'm sure it's good but it's not "I paid over a hundred dollars so a better version could be announced later" good.

This is why I started telling myself I'm a collector, so I don't feel as bad when this happens.

Imagine getting rekt by Nintendo Ninja over fucking Flipnote Studio.

Legit "let's rethink my entire life from the moment my sperm cell met the egg" level of bad choice.
