Key Points:
- Shigeru Miyamoto revealed that Fox McCloud's inclusion in The Super Mario Galaxy Movie was initially unexpected, as Nintendo typically avoids mixing intellectual properties.
- The idea to include Fox came from Illumination, and Miyamoto, as the creator of Star Fox, supported it due to the film's space setting.
- Miyamoto lobbied within Nintendo to approve Fox's cameo and was surprised by the positive internal response and excitement about the crossover.
- The Super Mario Galaxy Movie is currently showing in theaters, while a Super Smash Bros. film is unlikely to be made soon, according to Miyamoto.
