Blackie will also be called Spike when the Super Mario Bros. movie. will be launched in Japan on Friday, April 28.
The character name “Blackie,” which appears in “Wrecking Crew” and other family PC games, will be changed to “Spike,” the same name used in the United States and Europe. The name in “The Super Mario Brothers Movie”, which will be released on April 28, 2023, will also be “Spike”.
