The Super Mario Bros movie does not stop breaking records, and it is already the movie with highest grossing of all 2023. Even with everything, the Nintendo and Illumination movie expects to exceed 850 million dollars this weekend and everything indicates that it will end up exceeding 1,000 million dollars sooner or later. With this resounding success, is Nintendo going to make any more movies?
Nintendo Phase 1
In the same way that Marvel develops its ecosystem of films around a plot that interconnects them, someone has thought that the same could be done with Nintendo films, and although we do not see how a Mario movie can connect with one of Zelda, the Photoshopped image created by this user from Reddit is at least ambitious.
In it we can see a time line based on the image that we could see at the last Comic Con in San Diego, where Kevin Feige showed the world the next productions that will form Phase 5 of the Marvel universe. This image, which places the logos of each one of the films, has served for the user to ToonLinksApprentice imagine how the logos of some Nintendo games would look like imitating being part of a chain of world premieres.

an impossible project
Leaving aside that the movies would not connect in any way naturally as we know the games today, producing a total of 8 Movies Based on Nintendo IPs it is something directly unthinkable. But the idea is so good, that even some users asked completely convinced where such an image had been obtained.
The proposal would begin with the already released Mario movie, and its creator imagines movies of Zelda, earthbound, metroidthe second part of detective pikachua film of starfoxthe second installment of Super Mario on Yoshi’s Island and a film that will close the cycle: that of Super Smash Bros.
We imagine that in the head of the creator of this image, Super Smash Bros would be something like The Avengers in the Marvel universe, a movie in which to bring everyone together and fight against a common enemy, which in this case would ironically be the Master Hand. The truth is that this user does not lack imagination, and there is no denying that the idea is at least nice.
Are they going to make more Nintendo movies?
With Nintendo you never know. He is so secretive with his licenses that who knows if the Super Mario movie is the first and only one that will see the light of day. Many are crying out for something related to Zelda, but we imagine that, if there is something else, it will be the continuation of Super Mario, since the movie itself makes it clear in the post-credit scenes. Time will tell.
