Recently, the animated short film "Close To You" released by Nintendo made fans of the "Pikmin" series expect that it was a promotional video for the new game, but the official later clarified that it was a promotional content produced for the film and television department.

This short film uploaded by Nintendo shows a heartwarming scene of a baby being guided to crawl by a seemingly magical pacifier.Fans were initially confused by this as there was no obvious connection to Nintendo's well-known IP.Subsequent versions revealed the mystery: it was the invisible Pikmin creature in the first trailer that pulled the pacifier.This discovery has caused netizens to speculate that this may be a hint of a new "Pikmin" game that is linked to the real world.

Nintendo Japan's official Twitter account recently posted a message stating that the release of the short film is intended to promote non-game businesses.In fact, "Close to You" is intended to showcase the product creativity of Nintendo Pictures' film and television production arm.

It’s not uncommon for companies to release mascot-themed animated short films.The Pokémon Company often produces animated content in different artistic styles and for multiple age groups.Nintendo has launched similar works before, but they did not create a mysterious atmosphere like "Close to You".

Although "Close to You" is not obviously related to the game under development, the Nintendo Switch 2 is likely to usher in a new "Pikmin" series in the future. As for whether the story will be set on an alien planet or an ordinary family, it is still unknown.
