    The LA Times ha been speaking with Nintendo's Reggie Fils-Aime

    LA Times: Do producers and executives still knock on the door asking about movie rights to Mario or Zelda or Metroid, and if so, what do you tell them? 


    Reggie Fils-Aime: All the time. The message is, "Thank you for the interest." There have been certain [people] that we have talked in more detail with. But I think in the end, because we are a content company and are passionate about our franchises, it will be few and far between that actual deals are done to bring our franchises to life in a different way. These are our children.
