Nintendo LINE account throws Kinopio-kun into Astral Chain promo art

Back in the day, much of Nintendo's merch and licensing was the wild west. Unofficial depictions of Mario and other Nintendo characters were everywhere. Nowadays Nintendo is a tightly-run ship, and that sort of thing doesn't happen anymore. The closest we get to that kind of fun is through the Nintendo LINE account, which is no doubt approved every step of the way, but it still throws in some wacky stuff.

Case in point, the latest update to the LINE account, which promotes Astral Chain. Nintendo loves sticking Kinopio-kun into all sorts of weird and silly promos, and that continues today with their Astral Chain coverage. Looks like Neuron doesn't have to worry about rogue Legion anymore. It's all about Kinopio-kun himself!
