Update: Bumped to the top. Back of the cereal box has been added below.
Original: If you needed further confirmation that the new Super Mario Cereal is happening, Kellogg’s has you covered. The company’s UK Twitter account told one consumer that the serial is in fact real. However, based on the wording, it sounds like it may only be sold in the US.
The official tweet is as follows:
We can confirm this product is being released in the US but not currently in the UK. We will pass your feedback on! Thanks.

It may have initially seemed too crazy to be real, but based on this tweet and the fact that it has started to show up in Target’s inventory system, we should be seeing the Super Mario Cereal soon. Unfortunately, folks outside of the US may have trouble getting their hands on the cereal.
Thanks to Ninwed for the tip.

Masatsugu Saito talks main character design in Xenoblade Chronicles 2
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 9 Comments
Nintendo has posted a new piece from Masatsugu Saito, the main character designer for Xenoblade Chronicles 2. In it, Saito discussed how he went about creating the designs for the likes of Rex and Pyra.
Saito shared some particularly interesting notes. For example, Monolith Soft wanted the characters to have something that would blow in the wind like a camp “to express the atmosphere of the field.” He also personally requested that the characters “have their personality reflected in how they walk”, so each one has slight differences.
Here’s the piece in full:
