Apparently, the viral Switch teaser image was considered 'controversial' inside Nintendo HQ
Back in 2016, Nintendo tweeted out an image of a person in a Mario costume peeking out from behind a curtain. The tweet was meant to tease the upcoming reveal of the Switch. But the odd image was seen as creepy by some and quickly became a meme online. And according to two people who used to work for Nintendo , the company wasn’t happy about the situation.
What could it be...too much of a tease for something as big as a console reveal? So it didn’t go over too well. Then, of course, it got memed to oblivion and people were kind of upset about it, honestly.” Ellis further explained that with these “big” announcements and events, you always need “more assets than you think you do.” “And in this case, there was clearly no asset to pair with this news and nobody wants to put out a tweet that has no image with it.
