Gamers may have been a little confused today when Nintendo posted a short teaser on YouTube that didn’t look like a fun family-friendly game, but instead had a downright creepy vibe. The fifteen-second clip shows a mysterious figure with a paper bag over his head. His creepy smile is accompanied by mysterious music and sound effects.
“Who is Emio?” the caption reads. Nintendo also mentioned the hashtag on social media, but did not reveal any details. However, shortly after the video was released, fans found a tab on Nintendo’s Japanese website that played a short GIF of the “smiling man,” as Japanese characters describe him.
Since the page is in the Switch category, it is quite possible that this is actually a game. For the first time in a very long time, Nintendo has released a real horror film (by the way, the video is rated 18+ on YouTube). In any case, this will not be a full-fledged premiere, we can remember, for example, Eternal Darkness for the GameCube from 2002.
