The gaming community always gotta look out for each other People were happy splatoon fans like me got our third game,I’m happy for all the Metroid fans out there,and plently more examples.this is our silly hobby and we get to enjoy it as a group
@@afterlyte It's probably gonna be a breath of the wild situation, where it releases on the current console and the next (breath of the wild released both on the Wii U at the end of its life cycle and at the beginning of the Switch's life)
This could also be case where the devs from Alpha Dream were brought into the company that is currently making this game. Like how RF5 was apparently done
I've heard that according to LinkedIn data, several former AlphaDream employees found new employment suspiciously quickly, so people suspect that Nintendo snapped them up to make a new studio (and that said studio is the one making the new Mario & Luigi game). I really hope that's true, and that the spirit of AlphaDream can live on through them.
11:52 I will never get old of Jacob saying "Freddy Fazbear" out of context. That name has rotted my sense of humor to the point that it's become my sleeper agent word.
Having both the Series X and Switch, I’m excited for more games from Microsoft’s presentation (Doom, Dragon Age, Fable, Perfect Dark reboot, that Expedition 33 game). But I genuinely cried when Prime 4 was revealed. I still can’t believe it’s actually real.
Microsoft’s was still better and I say that as a Nintendo fan. This was good with all the heavy-hitters, especially for being so late in the switch’s life, but not as consistent as the Xbox showcase
@@rickygforce4217 It just depends on your taste on the end of the day. Microsoft's Direct fits more with the "action" gamer. I'm more of a niche gamer, so I couldn't care less about Doom, but stuff like Ace Attorney Investigations were completely insane for me.
6:11 the raw excitement he should for this announcement, if he dosent atleast do an alpharad gold Im sueing him for emotional damage because I am now hyped for hello kitty island adventures
i love how people are claiming that prime 4 isn't on switch as if prime remastered wasn't GORGEOUS as well as being 60fps on switch. This is a new game done by the same team that did the remaster. I would've been shocked if it didn't look this good on switch. Also the top left corner on the logo screen tells you it's on Switch, so........
Yeah, Prime 4 engine just kinda looks like a tidied up, smoother iteration on the Prime 1 Remaster. I’d only be convinced of it being next-gen exclusive if it looked like it was using entirely different tech.
Yeah, it doesn't look like next-gen graphics (even though this is one of the BEST looking & running games I've seen on Switch) & even from the start of the trailer it has the Switch logo. I'm hoping it'll be crossgen, I'd love to play Prime 4 with the extra fidelity of the switch successor.
For those unaware, Phantom Brave is a game, now series, developed by Nippon Ichi Software, the guys behind Disgaea. The last actual entry as opposed to just campaign additions was released way back during the PS2 Era. Not even PS4 or PS3. I don't know how early in the PS2's lifespan, but it was pretty early considering this came out shortly after Disgaea 1. As a fan of the Disgaea series, I'm happy to see their other entries get sequels. Still huffing all the copium for a Soul Nomad sequel.
@@maxspecs Nippon Ichi games are the grindfests of grindfests. If anything Phantom Brave is the shorter one, which is why they kept rereleasing the game with added content.
Truth. For an example, for the PSP rerelease of Disgaea 2, it took me over 300 HOURS to get to the real hard grind that is the Land of Carnage. Freaking Pirates....
So glad we got AAI2 for the west finally, I think the first Investigation was weak but the 2nd was my favourite in the entire series before DGS got ported
@@infinityheart_tm9270 no i totally agree with you that it works perfectly for alpharad gold... I was saying its probably not big enough to be on the main channel as part of the "I played so you don't have to" series
horizon is a weird case because theyre definitely solid games but Sony has been treating them like some kinda like landmark franchise for their platform for some reason and pushing it super hard in weird ways. like remember when they put aloy in genshin but you could only get one copy of her if any because they only distributed her once ever and only on ps4
It's one of their best selling franchises. Zero Dawn has sold more than 24 million copies, which is on par with God of War 2018. Forbidden West has sold about 8 million copies as well
I just love at 15:22 Alpharad’s realizing what game this is; like “Oh is this Kirby? Oh wait no that’s just magi koopa-WAIT A MINUTE IS THIS A NEW MARIO PARTY GAME?!?!?”
I found out about the game being real from this Nintendo Direct, and I honestly thought I was reading the screen incorrectly for a second, which made me go from watching the Nintendo Direct to watching South Park.
The reason you haven't heard of Phantom Brave is bc it was a PS2 game from 2004 made by NIS, the guys who make Disgaea, in the same general genre. I thought that they had just forgotten about it, content w/the occasional port and making new Disgaea games instead. So yeah, it's a sequel to a 20 years old tactics game
Not sure if anyone else noticed but the song that plays during most of the Metroid Prime 4 trailer is a remix of the Space Pirate theme from the original Metroid Prime.
Metroid Prime 4 was announced with a teaser on Tuesday, June 13, 2017, during E3. And the full announcement trailer for Metroid Prime 4: Beyond came on Tuesday, June 18, 2024. They finally acknowledged on the first Tuesday after the 7th Anniversary of its announcement, originally on a Tuesday. Absolutely wild.
Phantom brave had 1 game prior, it was from 2004 and had like 4 different ports (wii, psp, pc, switch) so its a long awaited sequel for the fans of the game And also disgaea fans who have been meaning to try phantom brave cause due to the SRPG NIS games essentially taking place in the same sort of multiverse (though like unrelated story-wise, just in the same multiverse)
I suck at strategy games so I usually look up the story. But this new game looks so cute and I am a sucker for cute stuff... Oooh, I am going to die a lot aren't I?
Yeah also on mobile just that in mobile for some reason even if you don't update you will get an announcement in the news thing but you have to manually update
I’m so glad this was posted! I watched the direct when I got up this morning and as soon as it got to Mario Party, I immediately wanted to see Jacob’s reaction
Getting ace attorney remake just after a ace attorney remake caught me so off guard cause I thought it was gonna be a year or two until we get another remake lol
The funko game is actually by the new company that the guy who made the lego games created. He actually said it will be like the lego games but for hardcore/older gamers.

No PC got her as well.
Correction: PS4 got early access to Aloy, the rest of the players got her on the following update patch.
It's still one copy tho.
To me Horizon has always felt like a fake series you'd see in a movie or something
It's one of their best selling franchises. Zero Dawn has sold more than 24 million copies, which is on par with God of War 2018. Forbidden West has sold about 8 million copies as well
cant wait for the next cast of “I played ____ so you dont have to”
17:32 echoes of wisdom definitely should have been called legend of link
The first thought I had when Funko came up was: "Ohh the content creators are gonna be all over this garbage"
Ace Attorney Investigations 2 made me go crazy! My family was looking at me like I was a lunatic lol
Funk Pop will bring back Alpharad Gold, mark my words
The next rebrand will be Alpharad Pop
I just love at 15:22 Alpharad’s realizing what game this is; like “Oh is this Kirby? Oh wait no that’s just magi koopa-WAIT A MINUTE IS THIS A NEW MARIO PARTY GAME?!?!?”
15:27 You can pinpoint the exact moment he makes the youtuber face they recreated for the thumbnail.
I never thought someone could come up with a less appealing game idea than the Gollum game, but the Funko Pop game managed to do the impossible.

missed opportunity tbh
i mean- technically, it's not the FIRST one where you play as zelda
