Nintendo recently revealed a short, spooky teaser for some sort of Switch game known as Emio. Details are pretty scarce at the moment, so naturally, fans worldwide have begun to analyse the trailer and speculate what it might actually be. Is it a new IP or an entry in an existing franchise? Is it being developed by Nintendo, or is a third-party project funded by The Big N? Is it from Silent Hill 2 developer Bloober Team? Who knows?
Since it's likely we're in for a bit of a wait until Nintendo spills the beans - whether that be mere hours or several days - fans have decided to kill some time by doing what they do best: create some awesome Emio fan art.
So we've compiled some of the best examples we've seen so far from social media, but if you've seen something yourself that you'd like to share (or you've created your very own masterpiece), then be sure to pop it in the comments section.
For now, let's take a peek at some Emio fan art...

Tons of cute art! Especially like the Japanese one that says “wait… I’m a new Nintendo character…?!”
Nice fan art and yes, despite me almost certainly not playing Emio as horror isn't my cup of tea (and definitely not anytime soon as there are other horror games I'd like to play first if I can ever muster up the courage to do so) I'd absolutely be there day 1 for an Emio amiibo just like AntDude!
Love the fan art and can’t wait to hear more information about the game.
Also show the Emio teaser to those who believe Nintendo is only for kids.
Imagine if this character actually got an amiibo XD maybe if Emio is in the next SSB there’d be an amiibo for that!
Fans of the most messed up and mentally scarring stuff always make the cutest art
I’m impressed by how taken people are by this game so far. The teaser was so minimal, and the character looks generic to me. That said, I’m as excited as most others are about Nintendo venturing into creepy gaming.
Too late for a new Smash Bros character?
Always nice to see Nintendo trying new things even if I'm not good with horror games
It's nice that fans always turn the most generic thing into a star. Hopefully the game turn out to be something special.
@anoyonmus : Geist and Eternal Darkness both published by Nintendo.
Resi 4, originally a GameCube exclusive, exclusive paid for by Nintendo.
Manhunt, the Nintendo version was the only uncensored one.
Conkers bad fur day, censored on Xbox, uncensored on n64.
Nintendo have done non family friendly stuff before.
I am so down for Emio in Smash and an amiibo!
@Clammy I am fully aware of that lol. I was just saying that this is to prove those people wrong.
Sorry, wasnt replying to you directly (even though I was), I was replying to all the people saying "Nintendo dont do M rated games", when, if anything, ignoring tired repetitive shooters - they probably do more than the other 2 do.
Metroid: other M was in fact M rated.
Bonus Super Mario Galaxy was mistakenly rated M!
How many Emio's are going to be showing up at Halloween parties this October I wonder. Good last minute costume methinks. Sharpie + paper bag = Emio!
Who is Emio & how did he blow up in popularity in just 1 day?
Good to know I can taunt the toxic "NiNtEnDo 4 KiDz" crowd who still have that belief even after Bayonetta was taken in by Nintendo.
Emio is like that problematic cousin you’ve never met but have heard so much about.
“If you don’t wear a hat to school you’ll turn out like Emio!”
“Emio made that face once and then the wind changed, and now he has to wear a paper bag!”
“Emio used to be a good boy like you, but then he started wearing a trench coat and waiting around in rooms with the lights off. This is why your father and I bought you a waterproof jacket instead!”
@AmyTheBrawler-64 It got shadow dropped like it was some kind of ARG.
Who remembers the GCN classic Geist?
@Clammy
And Super Mario Sunshine. <shivers>
