Following new deals with distributor DHX Media, the platform has acquired The Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog, Inspector Gadget, The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3, The Legend of Zelda, The Adventures of Paddington Bear, Strawberry Shortcake, Horseland and UMIGO.

All of the shows will be available in the US, with some also offered in Canada via Roku, Sony PlayStation PS4 and PS3, Xbox One, Xbox 360, Amazon Fire TV, smart TVs, the web and mobile devices.

“Kids and young adults alike love Inspector Gadget and Sonic the Hedgehog,” said David Fannon, executive Vice President at Popcornflix. “We are thrilled to make these shows available on Popcornflix. In addition, parents will remember series such as Strawberry Shortcake and Super Mario Bros. from their own childhood and will love to share them with their kids.”
