It's made by the studio that did Attack on Titan. I'm not into Anime enough to know anything about that, but people seem excited by that fact.

Influx of new merchandise? Please elaborate. I need things to waste what little money I have on.

I think he's referring  to the Fox plushie, the resin statue and the Jakks Pacific figure.  

Also, this:

  • And now this anime

It's official, Nintendo has revived the series

To be fair most of that merchandise was not specifically commissioned by Nintendo. I know for a fact that Jakks Pacific uses their own discretion when producing licensed Nintendo merchandise.

If I had to guess, it's a brochure for Corneria City. The cover says "STUDY PLAY CONNECT LIVE" and looks a lot like such brochures that are given out by local chambers of commerce.

Someone needs to photoshop that "Foxy Lady" pinup pic from SFAd onto that brochure.

People on Twitter are speculating that this might be an NX controller prototype:

Well..how about a better view on that flyer then? ^^

Looks like the two of them wanted to go sightseeing..also funny to see how Slippy tries to hide behind the brochure.

Merchandise-wise there's also a cool t-shirt you can snag at EB Games, my buddy picked one up for me so I'll post pictures once I actually get it.

Also, HOLY SHIT

FEELING IT

This'll be interesting to say the least. Certainly doesn't seem as out of touch as the puppets and the animation looks pretty good.

Because AoT has absolutely superb animation and art style. Production IG are also involved, who were also involved in the making of Ghost in the Shell.

I'm pretty excited for this, I like how they imitate the characters' jittery movements from the in-game speaking/comm. animations in their animation style. But I'm not sure if that would annoy me long-term.

And I just learned that I have to fucking stay late at work to do something that's not really my job tomorrow, so I don't get to watch it live. Fucking yay...

It was really good, one of the better animated shorts they put out. 

Spoiler

Nice reference to Sauria, and Peppy with a Steel Diver toy on his desk.
