Nintendo has fleetingly dropped some bombshell announcements on its Nintendo Today app, but the most recent drop is a real head-scratcher.
The gaming company shared a video on the app simply titled “Close to You,” also uploading it on YouTube shortly after. Comments are turned off on YouTube, and the video description simply repeats the video title.
The animated video runs for almost four minutes and doesn’t explicitly tie into any video game announcement; instead, it’s a cute short film about a baby attempting to retrieve their pacifier.
This sounds intriguing! It’s always exciting when companies like Nintendo surprise us with something unexpected. I’m curious to see how this animated short film connects to their broader universe.
