Nintendo President Tatsumi Kimishima told analysts during an earnings briefing that Nintendo will work with Illumination to produce an animated Super Mario movie, confirming a report that the company is finally prepared to put the terrible 1993 live-action film Super Mario Bros. behind it.

Kimishima also said that Nintendo is creating a new mobile game, Mario Kart Tour, that will debut during fiscal year 2018, or April 2018 to March 2019. That’s a first for the Mario Kart franchise on modern smartphones. It joins other Nintendo titles such as Super Mario Run, Fire Emblem Heroes, Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp, and Miitomo.

Nintendo also said that the sell-through for the Mini SNES retro console was 4 million consoles. The announcements — which also included a new paid online gaming service — were part of Nintendo’s nine-month earnings report.
