General Nintendo

New videos for Super Nintendo World have leaked from what looks to be the theme park’s official website.

The footage was spotted on the Vimeo account of one of the site’s developers. Those videos have been taken down, but not before they were preserved online.

Here are a couple of videos that offer a brief glimpse at Super Nintendo World itself – including entering through a Warp Pipe – as well as the Mario Kart ride:

Skip has been making games since the start of the 2000s. The studio has worked on various titles including the Art Style series, but is most known for the Chibi-Robo franchise. Unfortunately, things are’t looking good for the company.

The first piece of evidence concerns Skip’s website, which can no longer be accessed and simply brings up an error. Another troubling sign is that Skip’s name is missing entirely from the street placard where the studio was previously located, and it looks like another company now occupies that space. CEO Hiroshi Suzuki has also removed the official website from his Twitter bio.

There were concerns about Skip’s status last year, but these latest findings are certainly more concrete. Although there’s been no official notice regarding the company’s closure, things aren’t looking good at the moment.

It’s often difficult to tell how much truth a rumor has, but when it comes to Nintendo this year, Venturebeat’s Jeff Grubb has been pretty spot on. Grubb had the early word on a March Nintendo Direct and Apex Legends Switch port for example. 

A new tweet from Grubb now suggests that a Nintendo presentation could be coming between August 11 and August 22. Whether that’s a Nintendo Direct, indie-focused event, or something else entirely isn’t known. Going off of Grub’s tweet though, we could be seeing something as early as next week.
