Super Nintendo World

Super Nintendo World isn’t opening this summer as originally planned. Universal Studios and Nintendo originally hoped to have everything ready in time for the 2020 Olympics, but it simply wasn’t possible due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Universal Studios Japan provided an update today, officially confirming that Super Nintendo World will not open this summer – which is hardly surprising. The theme park could debut this fall, though Nikkei reports it could be pushed back to 2021 depending on what takes place with coronavirus infections going forward.

Disco Elyisum

Variety is reporting that Disco Elysium is being turned into its own television series. Production company dj2 Entertainment will develop the show, which is based on the game – which will soon be on Switch.

dj2 CEO and founder Dmitri M. Johnson, who was a co-producer on the Sonic the Hedgehog movie, said of the news: “Disco Elysium is a phenomenal property with an expansive world and unlimited potential. The dj2 team is truly thrilled about this extraordinary opportunity to be part of it all.”

As the project is in early development, no writer is attached to the Disco Elysium TV series at the moment. There’s also no word yet on which network or streaming service will be picking it up. dj2 is meeting writers so that it can pitch the property later this year.
