As per WP:NFF, "In the case of animated films, reliable sources must confirm that the film is clearly out of the pre-production process, meaning that the final animation frames are actively being drawn and/or rendered, and final recordings of voice-overs and music have commenced." As we have only gotten an announcement of the voice cast and release date from the Nintendo Direct, this article does not belong on the Wikipedia mainspace and should remain in the draftspace.

- Speedy keep. There is a source already present in the article in which Nintendo’s president confirms production is underway: [1]. This AfD should be withdrawn. JOE BRO 64 14:00, 25 September 2021 (UTC)
- The only thing the article says is the film is "moving along smoothly", which does not meet
WP:NFF. Do we have character designs or promotional footage for the final film with dialogue from the voice actors? No we do not. This film is more than a year away from release, and unless we get something more concrete, like a trailer, this does not belong in the mainspace yet.

- I've found a source in which Nintendo explicitly states "production is moving ahead smoothly". If that's not enough confirmation that production has begun I don't know what is. JOE BRO 64 14:21, 25 September 2021 (UTC)

- Keep. We know production has been going on, we have promotional material, and we know the cast and who they're playing. People will probably be searching about this movie now, and we have the info to provide. Iamnoahflores ( talk) 15:47, 25 September 2021 (UTC)

- Snow keep, even if it is canceled, at this point it has enough information for a stand-alone article. (CC) Tbhotch ™ 22:51, 25 September 2021 (UTC)
