Nintendo Pictures Co. Ltd is a Japanese CG production company and subsidiary of Nintendo. They create CG for films, television, video games, CM (Japanese commercials), pachinko (the Japanese equivalent of a slot machine) and events, and provide motion capture services. Originally founded in 2004 as Studio Dynamo, it split off into a separate company in 2011 called Dynamo Pictures, Inc.. It was part of Project M, a collaborative effort between Nintendo, Team Ninja, D-Rockets and other companies to develop Metroid: Other M. Three Dynamo employees worked on that game, director Munetaka Kurosaki, and designers Youko Nishikimi and Godai Takanishi. Dynamo Pictures was best known for their Pikmin short films.
On July 14, 2022, Nintendo announced that it would acquire Dynamo Pictures and rename it Nintendo Pictures Co. Ltd. It is intended to produce visual content for Nintendo's intellectual properties.[1] The deal officially closed on October 3, 2022.[2]
