Case Study: Nintendo saves $2M on 3D asset production with Kaedim

Nintendo saves $2M and speeds 3D asset production 4x with Kaedim

Kaedim worked with Nintendo on the game Pokémon Let’s Go, Pikachu! and Let’s Go, Eevee!. The studio faced the challenge of producing a large volume of high-quality 3D Pokémon models while maintaining strict visual consistency. They also needed to overcome long iteration cycles and the high manual effort required to scale asset creation without increasing costs or timeline risks.

Kaedim provided an AI-powered 3D generation solution to create base models rapidly. This approach applied consistent style guidelines and enabled faster iteration cycles with quick previews. The solution significantly reduced production time, achieving a 4x speedup with an average turnaround of 1.23 days per asset compared to the market average of 4.5 days. This efficiency saved an estimated 182,000 hours and $2 million, demonstrating Kaedim's impact on streamlining 3D production workflows.
