Shigeru Miyamoto Is Making An Animated Movie

Shigeru Miyamoto Is Making An Animated Movie

Iconic game creator Shigeru Miyamoto is making his first animated short film. It stars Pikmin and is fittingly called Pikmin Short Movie.

As noted on Cinra, the film is the result of things he wasn’t able to explore in the game version of Pikmin. The movie is broken into three episodes called “Midnight Juice”, “The Treasure Inside the Bottle” and “One Tough Day”.

The movie’s done in CG and will be shown in 3D. It’s not yet known how long the movie will be.

Pikmin Short Movie will be screened at next month’s Tokyo International Film Festival and also shown at Toho Cinemas Nihonbashi free of charge, with tickets given out via raffle. Details on that will be provided on a later date.
