‘Close to You’ by Nintendo: just because it’s funny
The short animated film has captured the hearts of many.
The company just released a four-minute animated short called “Close To You,” about a small baby and a possibly sentient pacifier. However, it’s unclear who the short is aimed at, or if it’s a sign of something bigger from Nintendo.
The animated short film that has been posted to YouTube and social media websites.
The film has already caused a storm and gathered a fan base. No named Nintendo characters appear on screen throughout the entire film, although the graphic quality is reminiscent of what you would see in a Pixar or Dreamworks film. Also interesting is that no Nintendo items or screens are visible throughout the entire animated short. You can watch the animated short below.
There’s no indication when we might be told more about this strange new project. You know what, “strange” isn’t the right word. The short film itself is far from strange. It’s charming and incredibly well-made. The strangest thing is how it was revealed to the world. It just popped up on social media on a random Tuesday, with only the title, and even that’s just a guess. It could just be a headline.
Among other things, it’s a joy pill for the arrival of autumn, so let’s not feel sorry for ourselves and enjoy this infinitely cozy movie as much as we can, no matter how charming it may be, perhaps even too charming.
