The fact that this got announced and everyone immediately thought of you speaks volumes. You were even trending earlier! And the fact that you can even title a video like this and have everyone immediately know what you're talking about is... pretty surreal, to say the least! I'm sure your campaign to have this game remade had SOME sort of influence on the Nintendo developers. Either way, today is a W for Nintendo and their fanbase, and I'm just happy that everyone else is happy right now!
Honestly, my bet's on Origami King. It released three years into the console's life, and during a pandemic when people were itching for something to do. TTYD is fantastic, but it's got an uphill battle ahead.
I think it's amazing that every Thousand Year Door fan can tell what game it is immediately by just that book part alone. I'm so hyped to play this for the 80th time.
@@Onavi1 For a very, very brief moment I was on full hopium and thought it was going to be a double remake package of both games because of the music. Not what we got, but it's not like I'm complaining.
When I tell you that I, a grown adult man with a wife and a career and responsibilities, started crying when I saw the storybook, I say so without any shred of shame or embarrasment
I play this game 1 time every year since like 2011 maybe that's when I chose it for my yearly, im 27 and yeah I cried as well Idc it's not just nostalgia talking with me the game is just that good in the end, regardless it needed to be ported but we got this instead like this is just a total treat and it made me so happy.
Bro. I completely understand. I'm expecting my first in Jan. Working as a nurse. Watched the direct and was baffled when this came out. This was my entire childhood
Because this game is relative to the culture WE were brought up as kids. There's so many cultural references that us OG's would understand. Hopefully the Gen Z's appreciates this game

I love how his initial reaction mirrors his initial reaction to Color Splash when it was announced. "what? What? WHAT?!" But instead of disappointment, it's pure joy. Feels like we've come full circle.
1:23 Translation: "They could have just ported the game, but even that wouldn't have made any sense. Why would they do that when we already have a Mario RPG releasing soon? And yet, they still decided to do a remake".
"A simple recompilation of the code of said videogame for a more modern gaming device, ergo, the Nintendo Switch, would be more than satisfactory, yet something even beyond said request would be foolish to ask. Taking into consideration the release of yet another critically acclaimed role-playing game from the Mario franchise, specifically Super Mario RPG, has a release date that's close to current events; I firmly ask, is it wise to even announce not only said recompilation but the enhancement of said game's assets to be more in tune of today's standards and technical capabilities?"
Ehhh not quite I don’t think. He’s referring to origami king I’m pretty sure. “Already had a paper mario” probably refers to that. I’m also fairly certain he’s talking about GameCube Zelda ports like Windwaker or twilight princess. Those were rumored heavily.
If it gets the Switch Effect like so many other series, it's not unreasonable to think this will become the top selling game in the franchise. The install base difference between GameCube back then and Switch now alone should be able to manage that.
Literally it's hard to describe how big this is. Paper Mario fans have had the rug pulled so many times. We thought we were getting a traditional game with Sticker star, we got surprised with That. We thought it'd just be a one off weird DS thing we got surprised with Color Splash We found out color splash started development before SS even released so we thought they'd finally listen especially after it sold poorly. Then we got ToK And then finally we began to accept that for WHATEVER reasons....the old paper mario just cant come back anymore. Then this happens.
@@KaiJie-n8q Yes yes, everyone wants to rush to say that any time someone slightly slights the new games. Despite never being able to ever offer much more than "they aren't that bad I liked them lol everyones so mean...:("
I'm glad I'm not the only one that was shocked, confused, and had a hard time processing this amazing information! I am SO HYPED!!!! I can't believe we are actually getting a remake!!
It's certainly a great surprise! I'd have loved to see this for Paper Mario 64 as well, since I feel it's weird that they have one as a subscription & this one as a standalone remake. This was my favourite Paper Mario so I'm not going to complain, but I'd like the option of a remade 64 variant since it's now on the table. Hope we get Super Paper Mario next as I really enjoyed that one as well! :)
I love how overjoyed he is. I can barely believe it either. My first thought ipon seeing it was "Arlo's going to love this." And it's a full blown remake! It's better than he could have possibly imagined.
Yes, we've heard his joy for the Metroid and Pikmin announcements, but this one was different. Just pure happiness that was so intense his brain couldn't even properly process it.
@@CouchSpud91 I could make the counter-argument that we've never convinced ourselves that we _wouldn't get_ Metroid Dread, or Pikmin 4.

I am just imagining the alternate universe where TTYD, Pikmin 1+2, Pikmin 4, and Metroid 4 were all announced and released shortly after, only for us to learn Arlo died of a stroke
@@cocolocostudios6736 Prime 4 is almost certainly a launch title for Switch 2 at this point, if we're being honest, so we probably won't be seeing it at all until the official reveal of the console.

Super realistic gas and water physics would seem out of place in something like Donkey Kong, but I could see them using it for Prime to really show off what the new hardware can do.
As soon as I saw this my first thought was "Arlo's reaction is gonna be one for the books." For real, my first thought was of that petition that was started and that many of us signed a few years ago. I think they heard. The level of care they've clearly put into it demonstrates that Ninty understands how much we care, and I can only imagine that it's because they've seen how much we care. Arlo, my guy, you're a HUGE, MASSIVE, INTEGRAL part of that, and I for one, sincerely think we have YOU to thank for this.
It's not just a remake, it's the star of the show. The last 2 Paper Mario games were practically revealed by shadow-dropped trailers, and this time? It's the position of honor, the final announcement of the direct.
Be warned! Paper Mario is one of THOSE rpg's. By that, I mean it's a LONG game to play. That game can't be finished in one sitting unless you're a speed runner. And a good one at that. It used to take me a solid week just for one full playthrough as a kid. And that was when I was a kid & I had the time, too. I think my fastest playthrough was over the course of 4 days minimum when I was a little older. Play Thousand-Year Door for sure, but be prepared & set aside some time to do it, is all.
My first thought after seeing this in the Direct was, “YES! ALL MY YEARS OF WAITING HAVE PAID OFF! NO MORE SPENDING HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS FOR THIS GEM!” My second thought was, “Aww, Arlo is going to be *_SO_* happy!”
This game was great because it's funny . The dialogue is the best part about it IMO. But also it has its scary parts . The post game is excellent too. It seems like they added a few things as well. (One of the characters in the trailer wasn't in the original)
@champswim8622 there's a purple toad with a unique sprite in front of Juice Bar in Glitzville. Plus if they do add new things they might add Luigi's side quest that he talked about in his diary.
The sheer disbelief in Arlo's voice is killing me because it's the exact same reaction I had. My heart stopped the moment I heard the music and I couldn't breathe throughout the whole trailer. I still feel like I'm dreaming. We won, y'all. We freakin' WON.
Similarly, I was so excited although meanwhile still skeptical about the direction Nintendo is taking things, but I also had a rush of a feeling of victory. I felt like Paper Mario fans have reached a goal post at the end of a long platformer level. I can at least let that feeling sink in.
I love to see this reaction animated. There's so much emotion. "I am looking forward to playing it..." Arlo says while looking worn out but still starry eyed.
Yup…everyone supporting this game by buying it will show Nintendo that this is the type of paper Mario games we love and want back…the new genre of paper Mario has lost what made paper Mario so enjoyable
The next paper mario has been in development for 3 years already so they probably already made the decision to go back to TTYD when they greenlit this remake.
I like origami king best so I hope they don’t immediately go back in the opposite direction and do more Ttyd sequel’s. I love this game, but there’s something about origami king that I can’t find anywhere else.
@@BryBry2ply Yes; anyone who likes good video games has finally won after a long, rigorous battle against Miyamoto. Maybe you’re just not in that group, but *we* are
Hearing Arlo have a total joy meltdown over this, alongside my own joy meltdown, made my less-than-stellar day absolutely fantastic. Thanks for everything you do.
As soon as I got over my own excitement at this announcement, I knew that Arlos across the multiverse were crying out in joy. I couldn't wait to see this reaction.
Man you were on the verge of tears you were so excited. I've never heard someone's brain shut down from excitement like that before, and given it's only been a few hours since I've got to wonder whether you've settled down or are still in shock.
This is the greatest thing I've seen all week. Metroid Prime Remastered, Pikmin 4, and now, the announcement of Paper Mario: TTYD being REMADE... Arlo is having one heck of a year.
This feels like we’ve come full circle. I remember finding Arlo because of the Color Splash backlash. Nearly 8 years later, we’ve finally got what we wanted. The ultimate pipe dream is a dream no longer. Cheers, everyone.
I legit just had tears come out. This is my undisputed favorite game of all time. It holds an extreme emotional attachment, and is probably the most influential part of my whole childhood. I'm just so happy to see that this exists right now. I legitimately can't believe Nintendo shown and gave me Pikmin 2, and Paper Mario TTYD, my personal top two favorite games of all time, a port and remake on Switch this year. I never in my life would have ever thought this could happen.
@matthewpolsgrove8267 alright, the excitement is similar, but I argue that making a continuation of a Story/Journey after 10 years is a bit more significant than retreading the same story after 20.
did you not see the uproar we made a few years ago? there is no way Nintendo didn't see it and put this remake on the list of games to put out.@@Novarcharesk
I was like "oh noes, if Arlo is watching this, he's going to revert into a Tasmanian Devil tornado of happy". We live to listen to Arlo squealing and flipping furniture around in excitement for a game 🤣
This reaction actually brought a little tear to my eye. I love the fact that games make people so happy, and I love how Nintendo is so good at making gamers happy.
Genuinely was lightheaded and in tears once the direct ended, I'm still in utter shock. I cannot BELIEVE they actually did this. Right after I started my most recent replay of the original!! 😭😭
Genuinely so happy for you, specifically, Arlo. This reaction put the biggest smile on my face. I never got around to playing this one (I missed the boat during the GC days) but your love for this game throughout my years of following your work has been infectious. You got me back into Pikmin, and you’ve reignited my interest in the Paper Mario series. I can’t wait to pick this one up.
We better get an Arlo reacts compilation at the end of this year, because the last 3 years(Metroid Dread, Pikmin 4 and now TTYD) have given us the best Arlo reactions yet.
It’s been 1000 years. And look who’s knocking! The TEC theme caught me by surprise. I’m so ready to see this nostalgic game with all the renewed flair the passionate community has strived for!
The Switch has been so kind to Arlo. He’s gotten Metroid Dread, a remaster of Metroid Prime, Pikmin 4, a remake of Super Mario RPG, and now a remake of TTYD. I’m not sure Arlo is gonna want to leave the Switch era
I remember finding your channel when Color Splash was just casually announced with no fan fare and you were discussing the state of the franchise and i remember you even mentioned just how nonchalantly it was announced, saying how it should have been an end of direct reveal. WELL, HERE WERE ARE! Your WHOLE channel started with that, and we WON🎉
When I ask myself, "what does happiness sound like" I think i will find myself coming back to this video, and remembering that we were here when it happened.
Arlo is still processing what just happened

I remembered Arlo promoting that movement, but I didn't even realize that we got _more_ than what Arlo was asking for.
I'm so happy for you!
Dude, you and Arlo got a LIFE CHANGING MOMENT today. It's stunning. My friend, EVERY *SINGLE* Mario fan was fed this year. Every *SINGLE* one.

shadow-dropped trailers, and this time? It's the position of honor, the final announcement of the direct.
It’s like they do know what we want
Usually arlo reactions are him screaming. This one is just happy sobbing and I love it.
Also absolute confusion
Arlo and Chuggaconroy gave me so much unfiltered joy this direct ❤
@DontReadMyProfilePicture.104ojay I won't ☺️ (🖕)

Ok, by now I've learned that if Arlo goes insane for a game it's a must buy. I learned that with Pikmin.
Yes definitely get TTYD best game of my childhood
You will not be disappointed by this one
Be warned! Paper Mario is one of THOSE rpg's. By that, I mean it's a LONG game to play. That game can't be finished in one sitting unless you're a speed runner. And a good one at that.
It used to take me a solid week just for one full playthrough as a kid. And that was when I was a kid & I had the time, too. I think my fastest playthrough was over the course of 4 days minimum when I was a little older.
Play Thousand-Year Door for sure, but be prepared & set aside some time to do it, is all.
@@monstersociety3360 yeah, I like to take it slow with my RPGs so I'll do just as you say😁
@@monstersociety3360my longest playthrough has been 2 days. Tf you on? Maybe I'm just fast idk.
Both Arlo and Emile's lives just changed FOREVER after this. Pure insanity. This is GAME CHANGING.
Who’s Emile

Literally lol.

My first thought after seeing this in the Direct was, “YES! ALL MY YEARS OF WAITING HAVE PAID OFF! NO MORE SPENDING HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS FOR THIS GEM!” My second thought was, “Aww, Arlo is going to be *_SO_* happy!”
This game was great because it's funny . The dialogue is the best part about it IMO. But also it has its scary parts . The post game is excellent too. It seems like they added a few things as well. (One of the characters in the trailer wasn't in the original)
@@kennymichaelalanya7134 Which character did they add?
@champswim8622 there's a purple toad with a unique sprite in front of Juice Bar in Glitzville. Plus if they do add new things they might add Luigi's side quest that he talked about in his diary.
@@kennymichaelalanya7134 Oh, getting a Luigi side quest would be WONDERFUL!
0:15 charles martinet would be proud of that OOoOoooOOOOoO
The sheer disbelief in Arlo's voice is killing me because it's the exact same reaction I had. My heart stopped the moment I heard the music and I couldn't breathe throughout the whole trailer. I still feel like I'm dreaming. We won, y'all. We freakin' WON.
I had this kind of reaction to Monster Hunter Stories 2 being announced back in 2020.
Similarly, I was so excited although meanwhile still skeptical about the direction Nintendo is taking things, but I also had a rush of a feeling of victory. I felt like Paper Mario fans have reached a goal post at the end of a long platformer level. I can at least let that feeling sink in.
Everyone needs to buy this and let nintendo know we want more PM rpgs like this one
@DontReadMyProfilePicture.104Nobody really asked.
I’ll do my best and buy extra copies for other people.
"WHY DOES IT LOOK LIKE THAT?" Really got me, Arlo was not prepared for a full remake lol
Arlo literally crying out of pure joy for TTYD is probably one of the most wholesome things I’ve ever seen
The fact that they saved it for the final reveal is MIND BLOWING
Arlos reaction is almost as sweet as the announcement itself, ladies and gents, it's happening.
I love to see this reaction animated. There's so much emotion.
"I am looking forward to playing it..." Arlo says while looking worn out but still starry eyed.
If any of you ever want a new TTYD-style Paper Mario game, we have to all buy this!
Yup…everyone supporting this game by buying it will show Nintendo that this is the type of paper Mario games we love and want back…the new genre of paper Mario has lost what made paper Mario so enjoyable
The next paper mario has been in development for 3 years already so they probably already made the decision to go back to TTYD when they greenlit this remake.
This is a test you are right
I like origami king best so I hope they don’t immediately go back in the opposite direction and do more Ttyd sequel’s. I love this game, but there’s something about origami king that I can’t find anywhere else.
Took the words right out of my mouth. This is the only game of the original triology I have yet to play, count me in.
A fine addition to my collection...
_adds this video to my Great Arlo Reactions playlist_
I see you are also a person of culture (a fan of the Pikmin 4 and Metroid announcement reactions!).
0:34 when your insubordinate jester starts throwing bricks at you
LOL
Everyday life for Count Bleck
I HAVE THE BIGGEST SMILE ON MY FACE. WE WON GUYS, WE WON
yea thank god i finally get to play my favorite paper mario Rpg Game from my second favorite rpg series of all time Halilua 🎉
We??
@@BryBry2ply Yes; anyone who likes good video games has finally won after a long, rigorous battle against Miyamoto. Maybe you’re just not in that group, but *we* are
@@fakename5308 We??? What battle?? What did you do?? Nothing but wish like the rest of us. Battle!! Dweeb.
This is actually one of the greatest reactions I’ve seen for a “thing” ever
Hearing Arlo have a total joy meltdown over this, alongside my own joy meltdown, made my less-than-stellar day absolutely fantastic. Thanks for everything you do.
As soon as I got over my own excitement at this announcement, I knew that Arlos across the multiverse were crying out in joy. I couldn't wait to see this reaction.
Now I feel bad that there's probably a multiverse where this didn't happen...
Arlo being just pure childhood JOY
DUUUUDE I CAN’T BELIEVE IT OMG I LOST IT!!!!! Thanks for spearheading the movement pal! ❤
Man you were on the verge of tears you were so excited. I've never heard someone's brain shut down from excitement like that before, and given it's only been a few hours since I've got to wonder whether you've settled down or are still in shock.
I love how you can’t tell if he’s happy or sad about it
The answer is yes
He’s discombobulated XD
are you serious?
He's so happy the value overflowed into sounding like anger
Well he could be sad. Remaking a game comes with a risk of "ruining" it. It definitely has elements borrowed from more recent Paper Mario games.
2:52 is arguably the best part of the whole reaction.
Congrats, Arlo. You made this happen.
Yep! His prediction came true! =D
More than his prediction, he petitioned for this. There was a Twitter campaign. It put Arlo on the map for a lot of people.
This is the greatest thing I've seen all week. Metroid Prime Remastered, Pikmin 4, and now, the announcement of Paper Mario: TTYD being REMADE... Arlo is having one heck of a year.
This feels like we’ve come full circle. I remember finding Arlo because of the Color Splash backlash. Nearly 8 years later, we’ve finally got what we wanted. The ultimate pipe dream is a dream no longer. Cheers, everyone.
I love it when announcements like these come and we hear primal Arlo screaming in pure ecstasy 😂 they did good today
I genuinely freaking cried when they ended this Direct with THIS!!! I was NOT expecting this and I could not be any happier!
I come back to this video every once in a while to siphon off a bit of the immense joy present here
I legit just had tears come out. This is my undisputed favorite game of all time. It holds an extreme emotional attachment, and is probably the most influential part of my whole childhood. I'm just so happy to see that this exists right now. I legitimately can't believe Nintendo shown and gave me Pikmin 2, and Paper Mario TTYD, my personal top two favorite games of all time, a port and remake on Switch this year. I never in my life would have ever thought this could happen.
As soon as I saw Thousand Year Door reveal I thought “Man, Arlo’s gonna go nuts.”
Arlo is almost as excited as he was for Pikmin 4.
Not "2D Ascension to Muppet Heaven" excited, but VERY CLOSE.
@matthewpolsgrove8267 alright, the excitement is similar, but I argue that making a continuation of a Story/Journey after 10 years is a bit more significant than retreading the same story after 20.
I'm giving Arlo all the credit for this happening. It was he who started the campaign that convinced Nintendo to do this. Thank you, Arlo.
Almost certainly not 😂
did you not see the uproar we made a few years ago? there is no way Nintendo didn't see it and put this remake on the list of games to put out.@@Novarcharesk
He definitely deserves proper praise for his large contribution.
I was like "oh noes, if Arlo is watching this, he's going to revert into a Tasmanian Devil tornado of happy".
We live to listen to Arlo squealing and flipping furniture around in excitement for a game 🤣
The scream of hype and incomprehension at 00:36 is hilarious
Arlo your campaign single-handedly reminded Nintendo this game existed. Congrats man
Oh boy, I sure do love Arlo's reactions
Arlo, your unfiltered, overwhelming joy at this announcement made my day. Thank you
This reaction actually brought a little tear to my eye. I love the fact that games make people so happy, and I love how Nintendo is so good at making gamers happy.
The reveal broke Arlo’s mind…ENTIRELY
if we ever feel down, I just go back and watch this video. It cheers me up right away.
Genuinely was lightheaded and in tears once the direct ended, I'm still in utter shock. I cannot BELIEVE they actually did this. Right after I started my most recent replay of the original!! 😭😭
Arlo's excitement is infectious. I don't know how many times I watched the Metroid Dread announcement reaction
I come back to this video just for some serotonin rush.
I absolutely love his reaction
Genuinely so happy for you, specifically, Arlo. This reaction put the biggest smile on my face.
I never got around to playing this one (I missed the boat during the GC days) but your love for this game throughout my years of following your work has been infectious. You got me back into Pikmin, and you’ve reignited my interest in the Paper Mario series. I can’t wait to pick this one up.
I love getting my Nintendo direct news while Arlo has a mental breakdown in the background lol
I've never felt in my entire life the amount of excitement Arlo has for this and that makes me jealous 😅
I really hope the person who animated Arlo’s other amazing reactions makes a beauty out of this one too
It’s bring a massive smile on my face to see Arlo this happy 😄
3:03 me when someone asks me what platform mario galaxy released on
I love how Arlo is so excited that his brain cannot compute what it just experienced lol
I like how the amount of joy he felt made his brain short circuit
1:26 arlo gibberish is always the best part of his reactions
It’s about time. I knew you’d be freaking out too man. This is truly a great year to be a Nintendo fan… and now more specifically a Paper Mario fan.
We better get an Arlo reacts compilation at the end of this year, because the last 3 years(Metroid Dread, Pikmin 4 and now TTYD) have given us the best Arlo reactions yet.
Don’t forget Metroid Prime Remastered! 😉
The people who animate his reactions are gonna have a field day with this one!
It’s been 1000 years. And look who’s knocking! The TEC theme caught me by surprise. I’m so ready to see this nostalgic game with all the renewed flair the passionate community has strived for!
I CANNOT BE HERE FAST ENOUGH FOR ARLO FLIPPING OUT IN SHEER JOY
like same Arlo same I also started screaming my head off
The Switch has been so kind to Arlo. He’s gotten Metroid Dread, a remaster of Metroid Prime, Pikmin 4, a remake of Super Mario RPG, and now a remake of TTYD. I’m not sure Arlo is gonna want to leave the Switch era
Post 2020 Nintendo has been so good to Arlo. Metroid Dread, Prime Remastered, Pikmin 1+2+3+4, and now Paper Mario TTYD. So happy for him.
I remember finding your channel when Color Splash was just casually announced with no fan fare and you were discussing the state of the franchise and i remember you even mentioned just how nonchalantly it was announced, saying how it should have been an end of direct reveal. WELL, HERE WERE ARE! Your WHOLE channel started with that, and we WON🎉
same
also got into Arlo when he was talking about the problems of Paper Mario
it's awesome that Nintendo gave us that remake
When I ask myself, "what does happiness sound like"
I think i will find myself coming back to this video, and remembering that we were here when it happened.
