A Nintendo animated series is reportedly being developed by popular network Nickelodeon. The news was discovered on a recent podcast uploaded onto Nickelodeon’s YouTube channel. Judging from what’s said in the video it could be any video game series produced in the last 30 years, but with Nintendo looking to expand this would make perfect sense. Which franchise would you like to see animated?
“We have a project now that we’re doing that needs to go unnamed, based on one of the most world famous video games of the last 30 years, that we’ve had in our shop for twelve years without being able to get it started. But there were great characters and a great story, and eventually we got it going.”
Whoah
How is this news? It doesnt even mention nintendo
You hate the unrelated stuff, huh? I hate them to.
It did.
“Of the past 30 years” is a pretty strong indication of who they could be talking about though. Still, your right they never mentioned Nintendo directly so it could be anything from Sonic the Hedgehog to Megaman.
Knowing Nickelodeon… This will turn out pretty awful…
It’s being produced by Federator Studios, which in the past made pretty good animation, such as Bravest Warriors, Fairly Odd Parents, and their most successful Adventure Time. So I’m pretty sure it’s in good hands, unless Viacom (owners of Nickelodeon) wants to milk it out.
Well adventure time is ending in 2018
Federator also the gotten involved in a few Ape Escape shorts (not the CGI ones from Japan). And look how well that went.
Kirby!
if it’s Mario, i hope the team who is producing the TMNT series is behind the project, IMO is the only thing worth watching in Nickelodeon.

Super Mario’s sunshine not for the switch
Stop ur fukkin spam noface
One word– SPLATOON!!!
Yes totally, a game that came out like last year will be on a cartoon for a noteworthy game series for {30 years}.
I hope it’s Mario :-)
Zelda just turned 30… hmm.
Although Metroid just turned 30 too and got nothing to show for it. An animated series could make that sting a little less.
Another Donkey Kong Country CGI!
Or it could be Sega anyways, they’re popular and they lived for 30 years.
Chances are it’ll be another Mario cartoon, but it could be another line of the “excuuuuuuuuuuse me, Princess” cartoons. Too bad Captain N isn’t a game, I’d rather see something along that line come back lol
call of duty
Too much Mario exposure. First Super Nintendo Land ( which looks largely Mario based *in the concept art* ), then Super Mario Run, and then the RabbidsXMario RPG rumor. It’s an oversatutation of the character like with DC’s Batman ( not nearly as bad ofc).
Anyhow, it will likely be either Mario or DK considering Sonic Boom exists, Mega man is all but dead, and the PAC Man show tanked. This is just my theory…I could be wrong.
Last 30 years, eh? That could be anything from Donkey Kong, to Super Mario, to Pac-Man, to anything recent like Splatoon or Crash Bandicoot or even Skylanders (I think that already has a show though). Hey, it just said within the last 30 years, which is about how long gaming has been an industry; doesn’t mean the selected franchise IS 30 years old.
I guess we’ll wait and see.
Games have existed longer than that, with consoles such as Atari 2600. Arcades have been around even before that.
True, but if you remember, there was the huge video game crash of ’83, which Nintendo saved the market from with Super Mario Bros., Duck Hunt, and all their classics on NES. In a way, Nintendo “reset” the industry, and all the gaming icons came after this event just over 30 years ago.
Tell me- who, besides, Pac-Man, Donkey Kong, and Jumpman/Mario, were renowned game characters before 1985? You probably can’t think of any, because those three were the very first real icons of gaming.
WarioWare Inc. is the only Nintendo IP acceptable enough to be handled by the same network who endorsed:
-Legends of Awfulness
-Monsters vs. Aliens
-Robot & Monster
-Raving Rabbids
-The Loud House
-Breadwinners
-Harvey Beaks
-Sanjay & Craig
-Zombie Spongebob
-Zombie Fairly Oddparents
At least they can get away with that one, with a few more viewers than the innocent but epic Kirby, the realistic Fire Emblem, and dark and mysterious Metroid, and the extremely iconic Mario. Donkey Kong Country or Star Fox maybe, but not entirely.
Imagine if it were Metroid and the guys behind Avatar: TLAB were doing it.
yes please! zelda, star fox, or metroid by way of studio mir would be fantastic
Please be mario.
I hope it isn’t. Nick has a habit of sabotaging good series and producing mostly bad ones.
*has a very disturbing chill run up spine* Please don’t be Zelda or Metroid. I don’t trust Nickelodeon. I’m mostly concerned for Metroid, though. Just to spite us for trashing that abomination known as FedshitForce, I could see Nintendo telling Nickelodeon to give us a chiby artstyle Metroid cartoon! Talk about kicking us when we’re down… :/
Nintendo doesn’t trust people they would be supervising https://mynintendonews.com/2016/12/26/rumour-animated-nintendo-series-being-developed-by-nickelodeon/#respond
It wouldn’t be so bad if it focused on Samus’ younger days as a child. But considering the nature of her backstory……
Whatever happened to that Rabbids show? Wasn’t that on Nickelodeon? I heard it was awful… like most of their animation…
Couldn’t be any worse than Minions, and I think the Minions are okay. Then again, I bailed after a few minutes of the first episode.
Which one is worse again?
Se ci fosse una serie animata di super mario in 2d non disegnato come la serie di super mario super show sarei molto contento lo aspettavo ma però deve essere fatta bene per un personaggio famoso come Mario solo il meglio
I’d be intrigued if it was Disney XD, but Nickelodeon has me worried. Nothing on that channel nowadays really seems to be notable or praiseworthy.

Lol *And then it turns out that Sonic is getting another series and we all die*
And for that matter if it has to do with any video game series at all I am going to be very sketptical…
It could be a Zelda series with Toon Link. Most of Nickelodeon series are with the toon style so Toon Link will fit very well there. I could be wrong though.
