Nintendo acquires Next Level Games (Luigis Mansion 3, Super Mario Strikers Developers)

Nintendo just announced that it has purchased Next Level Games, the developers behind titles like Luigi’s Mansion 3Luigi’s Mansion Dark Moon, and the Super Mario Strikers series.

Nintendo’s announcement says the deal is expected to be concluded in March, and “will serve to secure the availability of NLG development resources for Nintendo.”
NLG’s history of working directly with Nintendo dates back to the studio’s earliest days when it released Super Mario Strikers on the GameCube in 2005. Other games the Canadian developer has released for Nintendo include Metroid Prime: Federation Force on the 3DS and 2009’s Punch-Out!! remake on the Wii.
Personally, I hope this means we are getting some more Luigi’s Mansion greatness as Luigi’s Mansion 3 is easily a top 5 game on the Nintendo Switch.

blank Kevin Austin has been in gaming journalism in one way or another since the launch of the Nintendo Gamecube. Married and father of 3 children he has been gaming since the ripe age of 6 when he got his first NES system and over 30 years later he is still gaming almost daily. Kevin is also co-founder of the Play Some Video Games (PSVG) Podcast network which was founded over five years ago and is still going strong. Some of his favorite gaming series includes Fallout and Far Cry, he is a sucker for single player adventure games (hence his big reviews for Playstation), and can frequently be found getting down in one battle royale or another. If it's an oddball game, odds are he's all about it.
