After Nintendo bought Dynamo Pictures, a computer-generated graphics firm, they renamed it Nintendo Pictures and will be producing visual content using Nintendo IP.
Nintendo to Rename Dynamo Pictures After its Acquisition
Nintendo stated that it has bought Dynamo Pictures, a firm that produces computer-generated imagery, and will rename it "Nintendo Pictures." The new business will concentrate on planning and producing visual material, including CG animation, as well as developing visual content using Nintendo IP.
Numerous video games have been credited on the company's IMDB page, including motion capture work for Death Stranding and Persona 5, as well as post-production work for Metroid: Other M.
Nintendo has periodically said that it does not seek to expand its capacity for game creation via acquisitions. However, since the firm recently bought the Japanese production business Dynamo Pictures, this statement does not apply to other development fields.
The company has created visual effects for almost every kind of media, including anime, other TV shows, video games, movies, and live events, in addition to other components like motion capture.
The purchase comes as Nintendo prepares for its biggest theatrical release in years, a "Super Mario Bros." movie starring Chris Pratt. The film is set to debut in spring 2019, over 30 years after 1993's live-action "Super Mario Bros." starring Bob Hoskins and John Leguizamo. "Detective Pikachu", based on "Pokémon", was released live-action in 2019.
Nintendo is buying all of Dynamo Pictures' shares, making it a wholly owned subsidiary. It anticipates closing the deal on October 3, 2022.
Nintendo Advises Switch Users to Protect it Against High Temperature
The Kyoto-based business reminded players in a tweet on Monday that if the temperature is high enough to make them uncomfortable, their Switch is probably experiencing the same thing. Nintendo advises explicitly against using the device in settings with temperatures higher than 35 degrees Celsius (95 degrees Fahrenheit).
Nintendo also encouraged players to check the system's air intake (placed next to the cartridge slot) and exhaust ports (found at the system's bottom). Blockages may raise the Switch's operating temperature and bring it closer to the 35-degree limit in the summer. Nintendo suggests vacuuming the intake/exhaust ports if they are blocked with dust.
The firm warns users playing with their Switch docked to keep it somewhere with enough air flow and away from direct sunlight.
It's a good thing that the Switch has a built-in failsafe against overheating since, according to Nintendo, the device could put itself into sleep mode if it gets too hot. As a last option, though, it's undoubtedly a good idea to take preventative steps before things reach that stage, whether that means turning up the air conditioning or reducing the length of their gaming session.
The firm released its reminder amidst the increasing heat temperature in Japan, recording its hottest summer. In line with this, many Japanese people avoid operating their air conditioners for long periods, believing it's harmful.
It's not healthy for their Switch to operate at high temps, so individuals who wish to keep their air conditioner off may want to do the same with their Switch.
