From what I understand, most of the staff from Alphadream were rehired by Nintendo EPD after the studio closed. So I think it's actually pretty likely that Mario & Luigi is being made by one of Nintendo's internal EPD teams with a lot of the original devs.
Just speculation, but worth considering.
Hopefully, they bring back Yoko Shimomura as the composer.
Like you said, a lot of the staff of Alphadream got hired to Nintendo internal teams. Like the past director for the Mario and Luigi series, Hiroyuki Kubota is now at Monolithsoft. And some apparently went to Intelligent systems as well
And Monolith supposedly
@@juanluismendoza8655probably considering she did the Mario rpg remeake ost as well
Me thinks it was cheaper to hire the developers one by one than to buy out AlphaDream and it's debt. I mean the debt wasn't THAT big compared to Nintendo as a whole. (Would barely make a dent in their massive war chest) Maybe most of AlphaDream's debt was held by Nintendo, so they killed the company to save the employees? (Definitely an inverse of most video game companies as of late)
I went in with no expectations, just to enjoy the show, but man, that was a great Direct. The entire Switch era won't be matched in generations.
It's sad because we are at the end of it.
But this is true
if the next console can catch and ride the momentum of this phenomenal generation then we're in for something special
..... is it really over though?
There's still the fall....
And there's no f****** way Nintendo or third parties are going to throw away that install base so easily.
The switch will last for 2 more years yet
@@Matanumiof course but the main focus will be the Switch 2
Du bist wahrscheinlich Deutschlands größter Nintendo-Fan. Schade dass du auch bayern-Fan bist 😂😂
Some people don't realize how BIG Marvel Vs Capcom 2 being released again. It's a dream come true. That alone makes this Direct really important.
As for other games, as much people dunk on the JRPGs, those few RPGs (the one with the directional projectiles, the pikmin-esque one and DQ3 finally getting a date) that were showed are really promising.
I've never played the game before, but that title select theme was a jam
I also heard romancing saga 2 is really good
People were literally willing to pay 600 bucks for an Arcade1up cabinet with GGPO just for Marvel 2. The fact this even happened at all is incredible and it also means bridges were not burnt between Marvel and Capcom after Infinite
@@icedcapplord710agreed a lot of people won’t understanding but this is almost on par with Sora getting into smash in terms of all the licensing that had to get cleared for this to happen
The last MvC2 release was on 360 & PS3, right?
Brothership must be made up of a lot of key people from the old Alpha Dream team. Because the artstyle and vibe, while completely reimagined transitioning into 3D, is almost exactly spot on to how the series has looked since Bowser's Inside Story, right down to the enemy designs and environments.
I think that would be ILCA then since that's where the recent M&L director went. Maekawa and Fujioka would be freelance
@chocolateclaire_ I don’t think they’d get Monolith to do M&L bc of Xenoblade getting more popular. And they still might put out their new IP too
@@PIKMINROCK1 some of the directors and producers went to Nintendo EPD, Intelligent Systems, and Monolith Soft too. But I’d say it’s probably the EPD team or maybe Next Level Games like they said in the video
These Direct discussions are what gets me hyped. There's too many channels that JUST do the "live reaction" which I do not like nearly as much as the discussion breaking down the direct afterwards with plenty of banter.
Same man
One thing we can all agree is that this upcoming fall is going to be a great time between Echoes of Wisdom, Mario Party Jamboree and Mario & Luigi Brothership. I’m actually quite surprised that none of these upcoming games is releasing during the summer.
It’s the Summer of Luigi
5:09 idk if you know, but most of AlphaDream relocated to Monolith Soft and/or in-house Nintendo teams. I think more than 70% of them are still with Nintendo.
I keep seeing people say this, but no one seems to have a source, just “supposedly”
@@ChildOvAtom if you follow the names of people in AlphaDream, you can see them pop up in some other Nintendo/MonolithSoft games
@@jacksonlovesnintendo Where’d the 70% figure come from? Did you count?
@@jacksonlovesnintendo this is spread around but it's from people who just see a big name like the original director. The largest known share went to ILCA including director of Paper Jam and the remakes. There's an equal amount that is currently unknown but only 4 went to Monolith Soft. Of the remainder, a couple went Square Enix, a couple went to Creek & River (outsourcing studios), one went to Game Freak, a few worked on Fantasian which presumes they work for Arzest and one went to an outsourcing company that worked on both Pokemon and Tears of the Kingdom.
Even after the successor has been confirmed the Switch Train just doesn't stop!
It has too much momentum at this point, Nintendo themselves couldn’t stop it, even if they wanted to…
I wonder, how exactly the generational shift is going to occur…
Didn't a good chunk of Alpha Dream staff become Nintendo employees?
No. There's 4 or 5 that joined Nintendo or their subsidiaries. More joined ILCA and a few work for Square Enix
@@PIKMINROCK1 It depends on what you consider a chunk to be. That means they can still pull these specific employees from the subs for this project. Some of them are still working on this new game, and that's what matters. It doesn't need to be all of them to carry on the style.
I read a good chunk joined monolith soft, could be them making the new one
@@PIKMINROCK1 I’d seen that they joined Nintendo EPD, Monolith Soft, and Intelligent Systems, so it’s probably more than 4 or 5
@@rhettmitchell You are going to need specific names since the people that are in EPD as far as I know are the people who were always a part of EPD aka the coordinators/producers. Coordinators and producers aren't really creatively involved.
The Punisher beat 'em up is on the MvC collection because it's the first Marvel/Capcom collaboration game, even if it's not a "fighting game." Easy as that.
Exactly. It even came out before their SNES game X-Men:Mutant Apocalypse.
MvC collection alone made this my favorite direct ever
I am crazy excited about echoes of wisdom. I love that they found a way to give the character her own distinct play style that somehow incorporates the things we loved about BotW and TotK. This looks like a mix of “open air” Zelda and Link Between Worlds-style gameplay and I am HERE for it
When it comes to HD-2D, I really want this style of game to continue. LiveALive helped show there's plenty of amazing experiences stuck on the SNES and I hope games like Terranigma will someday be among them
If this was the last direct focused solely on the switch, they went out with a BANG!
Re: The Japanese comedian in Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter, that was Norimaro in the Saturn version. Sadly he won't be in this collection :(
Yeah, it’s probably just the arcade ports.
Well this aged well!
Funny thing is people were expecting the Switch to be on a big winddown during 2024, instead Nintendo makes a ton of Mega announcements.
I’m really convinced prime 4 will be cross gen now.
I mean, at this point I think that’s 100% what’s happening.
Oh yeah definitely
Considering the length it takes to Make "New" Zelda games between BotW and TotK, I think we are going to see a lot happening over the years with 2d Zelda to help fill those gaps of time.
That was a very good a solid Direct. Honestly, I was expecting it to be more "lots of remakes & remasters" simply because we are reaching the end of the Switch life-cycle, so it was a pleasant surprise. MIO wasn't introduced in the Japanese Direct, so I hope it comes to Japan!
How you know-how it was good?
As minute goes by, you realize you'll struggle financially and with time to play everything you liked
This is a very on point way to describe it😅
i think given the circumstances, its actually impossible to have expected anything better than what we got. obviously no ultra heavy hitters like a new 3D mario, 3D zelda, etc, but a ton of really great concepts and gameplay shown, not just CG trailers.
1 ultra heavy hitter. Metroid Prime 4.
@@danielstuckwisch9343That was not a new game announcement though.
@@leonro basically was a new game announcement at this point lmao
Everyone had no expectations at all because everyone expected just ports and remasters but man we actually got new games, I'm exited for the new Mario and Luigi game and the actual Zelda game,it looks fun
Retro Studios poached a lot of former Halo staffers for Metroid Prime 4, which definitely shows in the opening battlefield scene.
Afaik they only hired an artist from 343, who's now the Lead Character Artist for the game.
Great surprises, didn't expect such big hitters in the final year (I did expect a Prime 4 teaser but I'm still happy we got that)
For a moment I was thinking Echos of Wisdom was gonna be a Pikmin/Little King Story sort of situation.
I can own the Marvel VS games on a cart soon. As a 90s arcade kid, that's like a $300 game. As in one I'd buy a Switch for. I'm so excited for that release.
PS4 release too 😊
M&L, Fantasian, DraQue III HD-2D alongside announcing DraQue I-II HD-2D, Capcom Marvel Fighting Collection, Romancing SaGa 2 remake, Ace Attorney Investigations Collection (finally we get 2!), Memories In Orbit, The New Denpa Men, Darkest Dungeon sequel, Stray somehow ported to Switch, A Zelda Legend of Zelda game, *and* Metroid Prime 4 finally proves it's not dead and that subtitle!
Only Ace Attorney game we're missing in rerelease form would be the Professor Layton Crossover... Wonder what would need to happen for us to get that again...
I agree with Ash so much - No direct will be perfect until a new Rhythm Heaven. But I’ll give this one a 9.9/10. It’s been so long since the last direct that introduced multiple must-buys for me.
I wouldn’t call it the best in YEARS but considering this is most likely the last switch direct, it definitely ended with bangers
It had some good ones, overall this direct was mid especially compared to their last one. Not into JRPGs personally.
It felt like a conclusion to the Switch's library. Everything that had been missing on it and we had expected on previous consoles (mainly handhelds like 3DS) has now made an appearance: a Mario & Luigi game, a new Mario Party that isn't messed up, all DKC games are now playable, a new 2D Zelda, and Metroid Prime 4 is finally coming. None of these are "big" releases (other than Metroid Prime 4), so we should see the grand announcements next year with the Switch 2. I would have expected some re-releases (Zelda WW/TP HD, Prime 2+3 HD) but those could still be announced later to fill up the time period until the next console comes out.
For a console in its last year this is a great direct lol.
@@LiamRoyson the last one was one of the worst honestly.
It was one of the best Directs ever, but not THE best in years.
Is Capcom the best company when it comes to game preservation? Between their Arcade collections, Mega Man Collections, Ace Attorney, Resident Evil, probably more... it just feels like they're the most proactive, not only when it comes to preserving their own history, but making it available for the market to play and enjoy. It really feels at this point that everything is more a question of "when" than "if"
Square-Enixis hobbled somewhat by messy IPs (Xenogears and anything by Quartet), but they do alright with everything except Dragon Quest.
Now that they own Lufia's rights, I'd love to see Lufia 2 SNES remastered and Lufia 1 relaxe to play like Lufia 2.
Definitely. Capcom could be better, but they at least try to preserve their games. I feel Sega at least deserves mention for making honest attempts. Konami practically doesn't care, Square is a flip between if they do or don't (and to be fair, they've been a lot better lately about trying to preserve games), Nintendo still isn't all that great at it but is getting better, and Namco I would say is the absolute worst. Namco pretty much makes no effort to preserve anything that isn't their arcade games. I'm honestly surprised they even made sure Vesperia or Symphonia are available outside of their original systems.
Disney of all companies is being surprisingly decent at it. With all the recent Star Wars rereleases and the collections.
You guys might be intrigued/surprised to find that Mario & Luigi MIGHT be MonolithSoft.
You really think it could be? The idea of this really intrigues me. It also makes me imagine a world where Monolith created a Mario game with a huge convoluted plot 😆
If they’re using less employees as Zelda devs after TOTK, I’d say they probably could make games other than Xenoblade. But I hope to see their other new IP at some point too though
@@E.B._Tech I don’t think Takahashi’s Xenoblade team would be doing M&L but that’d be funny lol
So hyped about the DQ remakes. I played the nes versions of 1-3 sequentially, so I guess now I get to do it chronologically to mix things up.
Gosh, I hope one day we get that HD 2D style for Pokemon remakes. That style looks like perfection.
Please no… it works for DQ because it’s retro. Gen V (the next in line) was already in 3d. Please don’t go back
DQ is my favorite series so seeing DQ III like that is a dream, I wish fans of other series could get something like it too for their favorite games, Pokemon Gen 2 or 3 in that style would be amazing.
@@SevoraLF I’d be down but not for a remake. Give us a new adventure in the same region (but they’re already doing that with the Legends series so idk)
@@56ty_ Pokemon BW were 3D environments with 2D sprites for all characters, just like the DQ3 remake.
Bro a new Mario and Luigi was all I needed, the rest is just A LOT of icing on the cake 😂
Peak Direct and peak reaction/discussion videos. Please do more of these.
I just hope Metroid Prime 2 & 3 come before Metroid Prime 4, I desperately want to play the whole saga.
Doubt it. Prime 1 is enough to get people up to speed- story's not that important
Echoes of Wisdom is Nintendo's 2D Minecraft: laying materials down/summoning elements and how it interacts with the world mechanic
Cautiously optimistic about this new style of Zelda. Cant wait for DQ3!
The soccer kick from mario in mario and Luigi is kinda reminiscent of the jekkt special from final fantasy X also
I think people’s expectations for Prime 4 might be too high. Metroid Prime has always been a lot slower than something like Halo. Its greatest strength is the setting and tone. People expecting a giant action game will probably be let down. I think the best thing Retro could do is have a great multiplayer mode. People who get into Metroid Prime hoping for a FPS could be satisfied if it’s got a robust multiplayer mode when the story is still about exploration. There’s a reason Metroid has never been a huge sales success. Despite being one of the most influential game series, it’s still niche.
Prime 3 did also open mid-battle, which this opening very much resembles :)
Amazing Direct. The only thing missing for me was The Plucky Squire!
The less indie slop, the better
Excellent convo hosting, Jon
If I have to give this an rating, I would say an 10/10. And that's mostly because of the Dragon Quest & Metroid stuff as I'm an big fan of those franchise. Don't get me wrong. The Mario & Luigi comeback, an new Zelda title with Zelda finally getting her own game were wonderful and others like Marvel vs. Capcom & other Capcom collection were wonderful. But after waiting 3 years for an footage of Dragon Quest 1-3 2D-HD Remakes and 7 years for an footage of Metroid Prime 4, this was worth it.
I'm starting to think I maybe should pick up a Switch soon.
Wait for the price cut
45:16 about that, Prime 4 says Cosmic year 20X9...... Super Metroid supposedly takes place in the Cosmic year 20X7. Maybe a research video about each game and what year in the Cosmic Calender it takes place could be needed.
It's like nintendo are actually listening. What a great generation to be a nintendo fan
@@enorma29On the switch online SNES pack?
Where's starfox!? That's the only one of the legecy smash IPs missing!
Earthbound and DKC at least got remakes and ports. Starfox has gotten fuck all when it has insane potential
@@Matanumi yeah I really thought that StarLink game was the start of it all and we’d get an actual Star Fox game, but maybe they’re just taking their sweet time with it? They might just need another new team for Star Fox
Honestly, this recent Direct was excellent! Literally some of the best announcements we have had! New Mario & Luigi RPG, Metroid Prime 4 finally revealed, New Zelda game where Zelda is the main protagonist, Marvel Vs Capcom collection, Fantasian and Hello Kitty Island breaking free from Apple Arcade, and Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D! So many great announcements!
Sure, we did get some stumbles what with Nintendo Switch Sports Basketball, the Game Mill Looney Tunes game, and Metal Slug Attack, but the positives outweighed the negatives here. Though one of the more disappointing things for me was the lack of any updates on Pokemon Legends Z-A. I know that The Pokemon Company has a mind of its own, but even Pokemon games get a spotlight in a general Nintendo Direct occasionally...
Anyway... Can't wait for the new Denpa Men to arrive on Switch next month! Oh, and points taken off for mentioning Last of Us and Last of Us 2. Because reasons...
It’s subjective I really like this Nintendo direct but I also love all of them in their owns ways that goes with games and other gaming companies direct in general as long as the games are good that’s all the matters ❤
13:10 ...absolutely... Mercury Steam did the same thing going from Samus Returns to Metroid Dread... although for Grezzo, Link's Awakening HD & Echoes of Wisdom are both made on Switch... compared to Samus Returns being a remake for the 3DS and Dread being a Switch game...
It was also nice to see Switch footage of Lego Horizon Adventures and it looks good. It’s still crazy that Aloy is on the Switch.
Best Direct since E3 2021. Both having a new Zelda, a new Mario Party, a new Metroid, other stuff I liked (M&L Brotherhood and Age of Calamity DLC respectively) and both hard carried by the fighting game-related news (MVC Collection and Kazuya in Smash)
Remember: Breath of the wild came out on both the wii u and the switch.
I can see metroid be a launch title for the switch 2.
What, you just found that now? And so was Twilight Princess.
@@DontKnowDontCare6.9 I was stating a fact, and then using that fact to provide reasoning on how metroid prime 4 could be a launch title for the switch 2.
Also, while twilight princess was a cross-gen title, it wasn't pushed nearly as much as breath of the wild. Nintendo was really pushing hard that "if you want to play BotW, get a switch".
The Romancing Saga 2 disrespect. That game was the most surprising thing in the direct for me. Can't believe how polished it looks compared to the newest saga game that just came out only a few months ago.
I loved it, too. For me the best was:
- A 2D Zelda game. Those are my favourites and the first I ever played was A Link to the Past and I'm guessing the map will be quite similar? Anyway, I loved what I saw of it and the fact we actually get to play as Zelda in so awesome.
- Tales of the Shire spoke directly to my hobbit heart, I can't wait to try it out.
- Stray! I've played it on steam, but it's one of my favourites and if you love cats you'll enjoy this one a lot! It's such a good adventure with a nice story and plenty of kitty quirks!
I feel ya Daniel, I wanted Mario's Rainbow Castle and Western Land in Superstars, to get them in SMPJ made me so happy! It looks like such a good selection of boards!
I'm actually going to be a bit sad if the Switch version of Metroid Prime 2 is just a phoned-in HD port and not a big boy Remaster in the style of Metroid Prime Remastered. Metroid Prime 2 was actually my first Metroid game ever and I haven't played it since. I really want it to be more than the bare minimum.
It would feel wrong not to do it, 2 & 3 are less popular overall but still deserve the same treatment, 2 is my favorite overall and 3 especially would benefit the most from a remaster treatment
My favorite series ever is dragon quest (and the erdrick trilogy is my favorite trilogy in gaming history)
My favorite Nintendo series is Metroid
My personal wish going in was ace attorney investigations
I got all that on top of a new quirky 2d Zelda game, fantasian, the NSO drops, SaGa, and one of my favorite donkey kongs?
Probably my favorite direct ever personally
At the begging when luigi was getting chased by bees i thought it was going to be a mario x lethal company cross over on switch
Imho, I would like this to be the last Prime timeline game but then have new Prime style games set after Dread
I’d say this was definitely the best direct in a long while. While the 2023 ones were solid, there’s no denying that there were a bit too Mario-centric, with the biggest heavy-hitters being Super Mario RPG, Mario Wonder and Paper Mario TTYD. But here they not only continue the Mario RPG train with the long-awaited return of Mario&Luigi, but a brand new 2D Zelda where you play as Zelda, a new Mario party, and of course, ending with our first real glimpse of Prime 4. And that’s on top of all the exciting third-party stuff like Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D (and remakes of 1 and 2 next year as well), Ace Attorney Investigations Collection, Fantasian and Marvel Vs. Capcom Fighting Collection BABEEEEEY. With the first half of the year being pretty port and remake heavy and it most likely be the Switch’s last full year, most people (including me) were just expecting more of the same. But I’ve never been more glad to be proven wrong, and it’s suffice to say that the Switch is gonna go out on a bang.👌🏽Like, it’s getting more games on its SEVENTH year than either PS or Xbox on their 4th, which’s totally bonkers.
Actually, starting April this year, Switch is in its Eighth year, making this Direct even more impressive.
Going in order is better than going all over the place.
I have the exact same shirt Daniel’s wearing, it’s a fire Yetee shirt
I wasn't expecting a lot from this direct since the Switch 2 is coming next year, but it ended up exceeding my expectations. Mario and Luigi is back, we're getting an official localization of Ace Attorney Investigations 2, a new Zelda game with Zelda as the main character, and Metroid Prime 4 is finally coming. Though I think Prime 4 will end up being a cross gen title like Breath of the Wild.
I keep calling a new Mario & Luigi - Brotherhood 😅 like Fullmetal Alchemist
We have gotten all Mario RPGs this year, now we just need sticker star remake
We need a Mario RPG sequel, that is the next step.
Playable Zelda is a dream come true, and INVESTIGATIONS??? Never saw it coming
Fantasian Neo Dimension is confirmed for Playstation, Xbox and Steam so it’s not even limited to Switch either. Great news!
By the way, Steve I think they've removed Norimaro from the game. I've seen Japanese Tweets about not being able to find him in the game (unless you need to unlock him somehow). The copyright logos for the comedy company and whatnot can't be found in the game, so he's probably not in it.
Jon was right, there was no way people remember all the cool stuff that happened in the Direct. it's like they had a little of something for everybody, including games that went to a bit of obscurity. Denpamen was a deep cut, but not as much of a deep cut as Phantom Brave. NISA's (at least for western audiences) One-off SRPG, that was made back in the days when Disgaea was still a relatively new series. Now after nearly 20 years, they actually come up with a brand new followup to the game, making it a series. (Apparently, 12 years ago Japan had some browser game of Phantom Brave, but I heard it did real poorly.) The first one did get a port to the Wii, and then ported to modern systems like the Switch, as part of their Prinny collection series. Kind of like how Nippon Ichi recently revived Rhapsody a Musical Adventure (to finish the trilogy), I thought there was no way they'd revisit Phantom Brave.
I'm excited for fairy tail 2 marvel vs Capcom and others
“The tip of the iceberg, literally” is an oxymoron. The tip of the iceberg is a figure of speech, as in the root of the word “figurative,” as in the opposite of literal.
🤓
The connotation of “literally” has become a lot different, I think they know that. When a lot of people use the word now, it’s just used for dramatization, not for actually being “literal” about something
The opening of the MP4 trailer actually confirms that the game takes place AFTER Metroid 2, when the Metroids are dead. Somehow
.... but 4 appear with styliux?
All the Prime games including Hunters take place between Metroid 1 & 2, not sure where 4 fits in yet but likely after Prime 3
@@Matanumi They're Mochtroids, not Metroids, and those were only in Super. Timeline placement is murky but it's not impossible for the game to be set either after Federation Force, as was expected, or after Super (Tanabe suggested in 2015 that he wanted Prime 4 to riff on Prime 2 but with time travel instead of light/dark worlds, so it's possible that explains why there are still Space Pirates after Super - they've been brought forward in time, perhaps)
I have never enjoyed a direct more since the Wii U 2013 direct
Yes the direct was totally peak!
My Prime 4 prediction is that it's been done for a while now, and they've been spending this extra time making a "remastered" version for the next console.
And they just didn't release this version yet, because maybe they think both versions will do better marketing-wise as a cross-gen release
Great direct!
The problem with doing a Kid Icarus: Uprising sequel is what Ash mentioned about what could be holding back a remaster, you'd lose much of the original's charm by recasting everyone. Unfortunately, Nintendo's *MUCH* cheaper about voice acting than they were back when Uprising was made. Even looking at Smash, most of the returning characters from that game are either uncredited (Pit/Pittoo) or recast (Palutena, Viridi, etc.). Not to mention that Sakurai's likely busy with Smash 6 at this point.
With the exception of xenoblade!
@@stur5170 Xenoblade is NoE, & the UK has different rules about this kind of thing.
Sakurai is done with the smash series. The next game will be directed by someone else
steve is wearing that zelda uniqlo shirt, i see you
The 2D timeline would fall under the fallen hero timeline
It would be cool to have this on Spotify as well
I hope kinda zelda isn't a silent protagonist like link is
I see the Metroid timeline like this: the first game is canon either way, then it splits and becomes two different stories between the Prime series and the other”regular” series.
Otherwise, how much does she have time to do between Metroid 1 and 2? It made sense when it was just one game, but now there’s like six of them.
there's an official timeline. the prime series takes place between Metroid 1 and 2.
@@jenerossitea9247 I know, I’m just saying it’s getting a bit ridiculous with how many games they’ve cramming in between those two. It’s not like they had all these games in the series planned back in the early 2000’s.
One of the better Directs ever, and I didn't record my reaction! Just my luck...
I think the best direct was the one that revealed Paper Mario the Thousand Year Door. This one was good but I don't think it's as good as that one was.
Its very obvious that the Switch 2 is the target plattform for Metroid Prime 4 and the Switch 1 version is the downgraded port, rather than the other way around, cause the gameplay was very reminiscent of how Switch ports of PS4 games usually look like.
My thoughts exactly, this looked great on Switch but I can already imagine them showing the transition of graphics between this and Switch 2 using this footage.
I didn't really find that to be obvious at all.
In my eyes, it looked like they were using the same old Metroid prime engine, a la, Metroid prime remastered.
@@Tstumpman
Yeah but its fine, this is TH-cam, its been established that the average TH-cam user has a IQ of 50-60, so its not surprising you weren't able to see that.
@@novustaIks7525 yeah, I'm super dumb.
@@novustaIks7525 incredibly rude, damn
I wonder how dungeon bosses are going to work in Echo of Wisdom. Do you just spam them with summoned Moblins? That can't be it, right?
There is a limit to the spamming
I have a question/theory for any one of y’all at gvg. Do y’all think switch 2 first 2 years will have GameCube and 3ds hd/4k remasters? I’m asking because I noticed gba Mario tennis and golf are not on nso yet and I’m thinking maybe Nintendo will just do a hd/4k remaster of GameCube Mario golf and tennis with 2025/26 since over 10 million people owns switch golf and tennis and they announce gba golf and tennis around those possible remasters. This just a tinfoil theory because it would be smart to repeat what they did for switch 1 with wiiU ports but with GameCube and 3ds ports. Like for example f-zero gx remaster, both gcn star Fox remastered, Kirby air ride, kid Icarus, both 3ds Kirby, Sami’s returns, Luigi mansion 1 hd, Zelda ww/tp with link between worlds. All those games can fill out 2 years worth with new games in between for switch 2
MVC 2 IS FREE!!
Little surprised you're all excited about the BotW style exploration in a 2D Zelda, I'm not sure why I am though. I hope after this they do a more traditional one.
"I think this is what everyone wanted"
I don't think it's what I wanted, unfortunately, especially from a Zelda player character
The next 2D game will have Link and Zelda playable at the same time.
Punisher is an incredible game
I mean there was one game I'd buy
I can honestly say that this direct cleared my low expectations, and I mean that was zero sarcasm involved.
I may not have gotten a poor / sequel / remake of kid Icarus uprising, the Mario and Luigi brothers ship more than makes up for that 💯
It was a more noteworthy Direct than I expected; an original Mario and Luigi when a remake was predicted was certainly something else!
DKC Returns, Mio, Stray, Super Mario Party Jamboree, Dragon Quest 3 (which I didn't realise was the first for the trilogy chronologically), Ace Attorney were all great announcements for me...
Oh, and Prime 4 was there too I guess
Am I the only one lowkey hyped for the looney tunes sports game 👀👀
The only thing I could knock against the Direct was that the pacing was a bit weird
In what way? Pacing seemed right to me. There weren't any extended lulls.
@@JonSmith-hk1bq I dunno, it just felt weird to me
With the Kid Icarus thing, I mean, how many games in this Direct were remakes or rereleases of things that are 20 or 30 years old?
It's not "the last chance" for a port of Uprising. If history has shown us anything its that there's no time limit on these things. If anything maybe its too soon. I got a bunch of my boomer games here. Maybe they're waiting on the kids for whom the 3DS was their first ever console to reach their 30s so that they can mine their nostalgia too.
Kind of joking/not joking on that one there. I mean... it is what they do.
I’m sorry, but if you seriously think you need to confront your enemies head on to be a “bad ass”, you need your head checked and priorities sorted out. Zelda’s way, making use of her intellect and wisdom in the new game, is more than bad ass enough. She doesn’t need to be a traditional fighter to be strong.
It’s as good as saying all stay home mothers/homemakers are not as “independent or strong” as their working counter parts.
It‘s the cursed thinking a lot of people have nowadays where they think a good female character is only one fights tough and acts like a badass.
As if the world had only that one type of females. Tough women come in all different forms, you don‘t have to be a fighter to be considered a strong woman.
MvC skipping xbox is why my username is what it is. Xbox people get shafted and yet they still believe whatever phil tells them. Its hilarious 😂😂. Also i cant wait for mario and luigi, fantasian, mvc, and ace attorney investigations
