I think I'm kind of obsessed with this "Emio" thing, even though I'm not big into horror games, which this seeming is going to be, and it remains to be seen if I'll actually play it when it finally does come out. It's mostly the circumstances surrounding its reveal and the fact that he's coming from Nintendo specifically that has me keenly interested. Overall, I think this is rather brilliant marking on Nintendo's part; rather than tease this in a Direct, where it would be drowned out by all the other reveals, they release the trailer on an otherwise uneventful day, with nothing much else to compete against it in terms of getting people's attention. On top of that, they add a layer of mystery on top of this sudden short reveal with "Who is Emio?" as a hashtag. In a way, it's similar to how Cloverfield was revealed, there's not much to go off of, and the desire to know more increases when you withhold information. Of course, this mystery and intrigue will go away once they finally reveal more information, so let's just hope it doesn't wind up like most of J.J. Abrams movies where the reveal was not worth all the mystery and intrigue he placed before it. On top of all that, this is just a weird thing for Nintendo to do. They've published Mature-rated games before, even horror games, but revealing this game in this way is just something they don't do. It's all the more jarring when after this, they go right back to sharing the more family-friendly content they usually post, which again, makes it all the more memorable. The reaction from fans is especially fun to watch, there's already so much fan art of this weirdo with the paper bag over their head, with people saying stuff like "Mario and Luigi's evil brother" to "the one who deals with Nintendo leakers" to of course, because Nintendo fans are so predictable like this, "the next Smash bros. newcomer". It's been really fun looking at everyone joining the fun and/or speculating on what this is. I'm definitely intrigued at the moment, and even if I'll probably move on to something else until more information is revealed, for now, my obsession with "Emio" is still riding high!
I feel like they should've gave more footage to chew on or at least leaned more into the ARG aspect of it. As of right now, not very many people are talking about it anymore
Wow! Y’all were actually spot on! You were the only ones I heard suggest the possibility of a new FDC.
Everyone asks #WhoisEmio
No one asks #HowisEmio

Can't wait for Smiling Man to show up in the next WarioWare
I think we've got it backwards, guys. "Emio" read backwards is "Oi Me"! Clearly, the game is about the horrors of public transit in Britan.
Emio for smash 6 let’s go 😂
TBF, that might happen
Emio reminds me of that one Guilty Gear character who also wears a paper bag on his head.
man im excited for this
I saw on Twitter that someone compared the guy in the Emil trailer to the bag man from Persona 2. Probably a coincidence… right?
Happy Masks Salesman, anyone?
Famicom Detective Club Emio?
You forgot Dragalia Lost and also I have this idea where what if Tango Works was working on this.
