Shigeru Miyamoto says Nintendo developed new game projects after the Super Mario Galaxy Movie introduced characters from other franchises. In an interview with Famitsu, Miyamoto explains that Nintendo considers such cross-franchise decisions case by case, but the appearance of Fox McCloud and Yoshi in The Super Mario Galaxy Movie led the company to create new content for those properties. The outlets report that Miyamoto specifically links the movie’s inclusion of these characters to the development of new Star Fox and Yoshi games, as well as a separate Switch-related project described as “The Mysterious Book.” The reports characterize the explanation as confirmation of what some fans had previously expected, and they present Miyamoto’s remarks as part of a broader discussion of how the movie adaptations influence Nintendo’s internal development choices. No release dates, development status details, or platform specifics beyond the mention of a Switch 2–related project are provided in the summarized accounts.
