Fantendo Christmas in July Showcase/NeoNio99

==Intro==
Hello everybody! I'm NeoNio99, and welcome to the presentation. Today, we'll announce some upcoming projects we'll be working on at Niobium Moon Studios, to stay tuned over the next five hours or so to see what we've got cooking!
This will probably be the last Fantendo showcase we'll be attending, due to the decreased relevance of showcases in the wiki's more recent years. We'll still be cranking out new content over the next few years or so, but we'll just be announcing it in different ways.
With that being said, let's kick things off with our first reveal!
==Reveal #1: Global Smash Bros.==
Global Smash Bros. is the latest installment of the Super Smash Bros. series, taking things in a pretty different direction for the franchise after Ultimate managed to bring every past fighter into the fold alongside a large batch of newcomers.
This project is built to last. It's a live Smash game inspired by the big royale games of the current generation, like Fortnite, Fall Guys, and Call of Duty: Warzone. Content will release in big waves commonly known as "seasons", with each season bringing its own batch of Smash newcomers and veterans, along with stages and other features to continue building upon the game you already have. But in case you're concerned, don't be - we will NEVER lock characters behind an extra paywall or anything of the sort! All you need is a Nintendo Switch family console, a Nintendo GameCube 2, or a Game Boy Hub, plus the Nintendo Online Expansion Pack, and you'll have quick and easy access to the world of Global Smash Bros. with all the content it has to offer! You can play with friends anywhere in the world, in good old-fashioned Smash battles or the all-new Smash Royale mode, where a grand total of 25 players will duke it out in the biggest Smash arenas of them all!
Season 1 will officially launch on July 28, 2023. Keep an eye out for more updates in the near future!
==Reveal #2: Gex and the Silver Stream==
"Time to teach someone some manners!"
Gex and the Silver Stream is an all-new Gex video game. Honestly, the announcement of Gex Trilogy couldn't have come at a better time.
Silver Stream takes place 25 years after Gex 3: Deep Cover Gecko; Gex and Agent Xtra are a happily married couple (despite the fact that they can't have biological kids due to being different species) and Gex has pretty much given up his old TV binging habits so he can live a normal life.
Until now, that is.
Turns out that Rez has resurfaced with a plan even more devastating than ever before. His goal? Take advantage of the new technology the age of streaming services has brought upon humanity and use it to build his biggest television empire of all. After Gex and Xtra's adopted baby lizard, Tex, is sucked into the "Silver Stream", the two of them are forced back into action.
A variety of new spoof-packed stages await Gex in the Silver Stream, including (but not limited to) Uber Troopers, the iconic capitalist-indulgent superhero cinematic universe film; The Darkest Red, the latest trendy horror show that's taken the internet by storm; Stellar Dreamers, the new plot-driven cartoon epic that totally won't take a dramatic turn and give its protagonist agonizing trauma; and Teeny Greenie, that classic children's education favorite that Gex recovered a couple old VHS tapes for so Tex could watch it.
==Reveal #3: Cartoon Network Backlot Party==
This one's a return to an old "MGX Studios" era tradition. Cartoon Network: Backlot Party is a project based on a cancelled CN party game that was slated for a release on Wii and Nintendo 3DS until it was quietly let go. It featured characters from a variety of Cartoon Network shows engaging in dodgeball and other games on the city streets.
Niobium Moon's revival of Backlot Party will feature an even larger cast with even more shows represented, with multiple newer franchises - as well as some more obscure characters, as the developer's tradition has been for quite a while. We can't guarantee all the games from the original project will be returning, but we can promise a lot of content will be featured.
==Reveal #4: Yoshi and Birdo's Island==
We don't have a lot of stuff to reveal for this one yet, but we'll fill you in on the game's story - Wart and his army of 8-Bits have arrived from the dream world of Subcon to invade the real world! The Yoshis of Yoshi's Island, with the help of some Birdos rebelling against Wart's forces, must protect Baby Mario and the rest of the Star Children as they venture into the vast dreamscape that awaits them in Subcon.
The Birdos can't throw eggs like the Yoshis can - but they can definitely shoot them! You can expect to encounter several enemies from both the Yoshi's Island series and Suoer Mario Bros. 2 - plus a batch of all-new enemies...
