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.

@bermast424025 күн бұрын
My guess is it's either a new IP or Fatal Frame, since the editing on this just screams Fatal Frame. This looks nothing like Eternal Darkness though, I'm not sure why people are going there. Or maybe in the next trailer we'll see mr. paper bag man take off his trench-coat, and it's actually just a couple of Inklings underneath. Surprise guys, it was just Splatoon being weird again, next DLC coming this Halloween!

if this was in a Nintendo direct... (splash screen) Get ready for a spooky experience, in Emio! In a mysterious haunted office building, a strange entity known as "The Smiling Man" is threatening the city. You play as a ghost hunter named Nick to find out just whats going on in this creepy place. Make sure to watch out for spooks... (clip)... frights... (clip)... and downright scares! Emio: The Smiling Man Returns will be available this October 23rd on Nintendo eShop.

@greyscaleadaven25 күн бұрын
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.

@PikaPhantomVG25 күн бұрын
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.
