Nintendo has recently announced on Twitter that they have finally decided to implement a name change of a character in the early Nintendo Entertainment System game, Wrecking Crew. The character named Blackie will be known by that name no longer in Japan and will be called Spike to fall in line with the western name of the very same character. Blackie will also be called Spike when The Super Mario Bros. Movie launches in Japan on Friday, 28th April.

The name of the character “Blackie,” which appears in “Wrecking Crew” and other games for the Family Computer, 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 be “Spike” as well.
