One thing that keeps being overlooked is the returned of LEVEL 5 to the west!
I saw that which is exciting! There was just too many other things i got super stoked on lol
Fantasy life is going to be the sleeper hit!
YES! This is wonderful news! I'm still holding out for yokai watch 4 to be released in the West, but I'll happily settle for anything from Level 5!
Thanks to nintendo tho. That exclusive deal with sony for nino kuni 2 hurts them a lot, i love it tho but commercially flop. Good on them te release it on all platforms i have on all 3 platforms
Decapolice looks so good
My favorite announcement by far was Professor Layton. This is my favorite franchise that I and many other thought was dead. I’m so excited to see another mainline entry. There was other cool stuff as well but that one game blew me away.
I love that series as well! ❤️
Literally just saw a comment a few days ago by someone lamenting over the death of the Professor Layton franchise. I’ve never played the games myself but I’m so happy its fans got this surprise!
I thought level 5 was dead in the west too. We have to buy their games to support them
@@jameskozy7254 This. Heck, even buying the older games would benefit them.
I was not expecting a Ghost Trick port, but I’d love to replay it and I’m glad more people get to experience this masterpiece
Ghost Trick is soo underrated, one of the best DS era games
@@TheNameIsSR Not underrated, just obscure and by the time word of mouth got out about how good it is the game was very inaccessible due to its price.
Literally yesterday I was talking to a friend about Metroid Prime, started listening to the soundtrack and got all nostalgic and wanted to play it again. And here it is!
Phendrana drifts is some of the best
I love the Inside Space Frigate track. So chill.
FANTASY LIFE 2 was the greatest surprise that I never expected to get and I am so so so happpyyyyyy
Same, that was so fucking umexpected, but I'm here for it!
I was so thrilled to see 3 Level-5 games! I thought they were gone for sure. Very exciting to see them back in a big way.
I wasn't expecting more than a simple up-res of Metroid Prime. The fact that we're getting a game with a true visual remastering is so awesome!
They put so much effort into this remaster that I actually didn't care about not getting the trilogy or a look at 4 this is beautiful
@@justplaygamer2331 lol such an easy search on google,wtf dont be so lazy!!!
@@justplaygamer2331 bro come on are you blind? They did a great job
@@haggisman0812 yeah your right. Just watched the gamexplain comparison. Remaster looks 20 times better. 😆 looks amazing.
Damn I must be blind.lol the comparison video from game explain is crazy. Remaster looks so much better.
GHOST TRICK!!! I've been waiting for YEARS for Capcom to re-release it! It's an absolute gem, and I hope it actually gets noticed by the masses this time. Too many people slept on it when it came out on the DS. It's created by Shu Takumi, who created the Ace Attorney series.
The Xenoblade 3 DLC ….that’s all I have to say.
super excited for that and Fire Emblem Engage DLC. not really interested in anything else.
I’ve not played XC3 but put well over 100 hours on 1 and 2… I saw that trailer and I’m contemplating taking vacation to play/beat XC3 lol
@@ItsMrLuigi Do it! 😁
Dead Cells: Return to Castlevania was the sleeper hit of the direct for me. I loved the original and that looked like so much fun!
The one that really got me was Deca Police. Can‘t wait to play it.
Always nice to see an interesting new IP, especially if it's Level 5
@@JT5ingh Yeah, I'm honestly interested in what we might see in Deca Police.
I was REALLY happy to finally see Etrian Odyssey making its return. That excitement was somewhat tempered when I saw the massive price tag for the collection. It's $106 CDN before tax...that's a big ask for a collection of 12+ year old games that many EO fans already own. Thankfully they are sold separately, so you can choose to buy just your favourite/preferred game individually for $53. But I'll be looking forward to something like TGS in the hopes that we finally get a glimpse of the elusive Etrian Odyssey 6.
I'm so happy about so much they announced, them not forgetting about Professor Layton or Golden Sun made my day.
I actually think Disney Illusion Island looks really fun. My fiancé and I will definitely be playing it together.
Advanced Wars got a release date, that really is exciting! Metroid Prime remake blew me away, this Nintendo direct was everything I hoped it would be.
I was most excited to see Etrian Odyssey 1-3 Remastered but the one that you didn't mention was Ghost Trick an amazing DS game.
Amazing best thing ever. I freaking love all the games Level 5 is back! Layton and Ghost trick. Plus other mistery deceive/police games!
So excited for Baten Kaitos. I've been wanting that for so long and I never thought it would happen.
I was going to buy the first one on GameCube but thankfully I didn’t.
Part 3 would have been a lot better than just another port/remaster.
I always love the background music you choose for your videos. Nice touch with the GBA Fire Emblem music.
The Metroid Prime Remaster was a huge shock! I can’t wait to play one of my favorite games of all time with these insane graphics.
Lmao looks like the same old shit
@@smokeemifyagotem8851 You must be blind, my friend.
Looks the same with better resolution
@@justplaygamer2331 you’re kidding, right? the lighting and models look way better too, it’s not just resolution. they also modernized the controls and added bonus content.
@@abraham3673 at first look i wasn't sure. But you are right. Just watched a comparison. Much better lighting and textures. It looks awesome.
I always look forward to these after every Direct--thanks for all of your passion, Johnny, as always
Such a great show! Kim is going to be so happy to see Shulk and Alvis!!!
biggest surprise from the recent Nintendo Direct is the Baten Kaitos 1 and 2 Remastered Collection thats released for this summer. About time
Loved some of the extra effects in this one. Do more of those!
Yo good to see you're still making content, I saw your macross collection video a little while ago and it got me collecting the original OSTs for it. I have most of them if not all now.
I am surprise you didn't mention Atelier Marie remake. I am so hype for that game!
Wasn't that in the JP direct?
@@Bakuganluver23 Yes, but very high chance that Nis is going to pick it up to
@@FoodBot Hmmm.... that would be pretty cool to see
that baten kaitos reveal is the stuff dreams are made of. hoping it gets a better audience a second time around, cuz it's something magical. really paved Monolith Soft as a great studio.
EDIT: finding out they removed the English dub really bums me out now. I get that it was awful for the first game but it had some charm. The second games dub was great, dunno why that’s scrapped at all. Sad way to treat a remake imo. We’ll see what happens!
I’ve been hoping for it every direct along with Xenosaga trilogy, skies of Arcadia and eternal darkness but never expected one to come true haha
My wet dreams come to life dude🔥🔥
Hyped for ghost trick and etrian odyssey! Also so happy with all the same day announcements: gb, gba, Metroid, and fe:e dlc!
IM SO GLAD YOU MADE A VIDEO FOR THIS occasion
I still can't believe we're getting a new Fantasy Life. It's one of my most played 3DS games and I'm hyped for it.
I backed Sea of Stars on Kickstarter, and I'm so glad I did. I'll get a physical copy of this gem :D
Baten kaitos yessss. Loved the first one. Played origins alot but never finished it. Maybe i can finish it this time. Anyways glad it's getting a re release and maybe it can get new fans. Truly one of my favorite rpg stories of all time
I have been PRAYING for a Baten Kaitos rerelease on Switch for so long!!! 😭
ETRIAN ODYSSEY!!!! Also Xenoblade DLC, GB/GBA, and the surprise Metroid shadow drop! Bought that instantly.
We got Baten kaitos man... Hope for the 3rd game is not dead yet. I´ll be listening to "The valedictory elegy" for rest of the night.
Metroid Prime is my all-time favorite game that I've beaten. I'm 52. I've beaten a lot of games since playing Pong at 5yo. I'm so psyched to get physical remaster.
My wife and I couldn’t watch Nintendo direct this year but when she found out gb and gba games em were coming to switch she got so excited. Funny part is she was most excited for Tetris 😑. I’m excited for Metroid need to sell my GameCube version now lol
baiton kaitos got me most excited one of my fav games on gamecube
Thank you for your videos. I'm just getting back into Nintendo. I have a switch. Love it so much.
Idk but when that zelda music got all Escaflowne i got pretty hyped.
Heck yeah! Haven't played Metroid Prime since early 2015 on Wii. Been itching to play the first one specifically again.
I’m hoping that Golden Sun being an upcoming game for the expansion pass means Nintendo will finally give that series some love. I need them to follow up the cliff hanger ending of dark dawn!!! The end?
I just got Golden Sun before it's getting delisted.
@SvR What do you mean isn't Golden Sun not part of it yet along with metroid fusion?
@@dylanhagsauce8629 On the Switch it is not (yet) available with the premium subscription.
On the Wii U, the e-store will stop selling licenses by end of March. Unfortunately, many titles and some DLCs already got delisted and are not anymore available for sale.
Yep, the end; Camelot Software hasn't had a sincere interest in the series since The Lost Age. In interviews they hinted that they only made Dark Dawn because Nintendo and the fans were pressuring them to do another Golden Sun game. And after Dark Dawn saw mediocre sales, Nintendo no longer had a good reason to pressure them into continuing the series. Even in the highly unlikely event that there's another Golden Sun game, it almost certainly won't follow up on the cliffhanger ending of Dark Dawn.
I am very hyped for Etrian odyssey collection having never picked them up
Between Deca Police, Fantasy Life, and Professor Layton it seems like Level 5 is on the upswing again.
My favorite part of these vids of yours is you pulling out the Mario hat
The background behind the question mark is his table pattern😆
So excited about Metroid Prime remake!! After 2 years of rumors it finally came true. That announcement made my day ♥️😍
One of the best Directs ever. I've been playing The Minish Cap since it dropped.
My jaw dropped when they announced the EO collection. I thought ATLUS forgot about this series since the last news they dropped was 4 years ago.
I never watch the Directs live, but I took a peek after the video was posted and skimmed through all of the games. The really impressive thing to me is the sheer quantity of quality games. Lots of ports and remasters, sure, but something like the Etrian Odyssey collection seems like a great way to jump into the series for anyone who’s held off.
Beaten Kaitos is soooo good. Love the battle mechanic and card merging
Sadly, I've never ''beaten'' Kaitos..
😁
@@scottmichaelhedge5055 haha dam phone. Didnt catch that.
So damn jealous of the people who will be playing Prime for the first time. My first playthrough is probably my single most memorable gaming experience ever, next to only BOTW and SOTN. The Remaster runs beautifully (so far) for those wondering
All I'm saying is that "Sea of Stars" is by the "The Messenger" studio. The hype is real.
Always get pumped for your content! Great work!
Samba de amigo I had the original with the maracas on the Dreamcast and my friends and I had a blast playing and just watching each other play.
Thanks for the awesome video 👍, Etrian Odyssey collection 😀 😍
Really happy with this direct. Don't let Kim know there is a new fantasy life game johnny lol
It was a great direct for me. Getting some collections and remasters of titles I actually wanted was great to see.
As for the Zelda game, I think they are going to surprise everyone with it and really go all out with new mechanics. It kinda looks like you can build your own vehicles and such. Interesting...
What a year we’re in for buddy! Holy crap! Awesome Direct and great vid! :)
Great video! I love your enthusiasm! 😀
I’m glad for being able to play Zelda Minish Cap. Lovely pixel graphics!
I’d love to see more Zelda games on Switch, especially Wind Waker and Twilight Princess.
Really surprised he didnt bring up samba de amigo, thought he would love that announced as hes an old skool sega fan.
Got Minish Cap on the Wii U and it's awesome.
The cut at 5:03 made me laugh so hard, lmao
BROOO i am sooo HYPEEE by BATEN KAITOS !!!! what a ride that game wass in gc, cant w8 to play it on handheld mode tho, and to finish it once and for all
I can’t wait to play Golden Sun for the first time. After Chained Echoes, I’m so excited for Sea of Stars.
I just started octopath traveler recently and man what a good rpg so I found out they’re putting out a part II went ahead and pre ordered it for ps5
So excited for Fantasy Life. I put in tons of hours on the original
I'll admit I spent over 200 hours 😆. I think Kim loves the game as well!
I’m supremely happy for many real good fun action adventure, RPG’s. I’m about to get on the OPT2 and SOS Demos!
08:15
Is it weird that I was most excited for the Mega Man Battle collection, they definitely struck my nostalgia bone with that one lol
I'm gonna get those on every platform lol
How close to something like Wizardry 7 or Might and Magic 4/5 is Etrian Odyssey series ?
When Nintendo made the Bob Saget reveal over Barbara Bush's secret garden I had to really take a moment to vomit
Sea of Stars, Octopather 2 demos for me. Cannot wait for tonight!
Unfortunately Best Buy already sold out of the collectors edition online last night at 9pm but I did get to pre order the amiibo’s. Hopefully I can find collectors edition somewhere else
Years ago at E3, Nintendo brought the Game Boy Adv. and Adv. Wars. (Dated myself) to come out later that year. - So cool to see the Reboot. I purchased the GB Adv. originally for that that game.
Man, I’m an old, old dude.
I am so hyped for a new Professor Layton game. All I saw was that Layton was there unlike the previous game, and that's all I need to know. The Layton games are some of my favorites on the DS and 3DS.
I like that they are releasing a Etrian Odyssey collection as it has all the first 3 games and those are the ones I do not have in my collection yet. Perfect little gem for me :D
I get my Nintendo Direct summaries from HCG! Thanks.
Got Metroid Prime right after the direct. And Sea of Stars cannot wait to play it.
Looking forward to the Baten Kaitos video! :)
And the remakes! :)
And hopefully a 3rd game! :)
Fingers crossed.
We Love Katamari Reroll+ Royal Reverie was the standout title for me. Back in 2021 I tried to play the original We Love Katamari but the PS2 I was sent broken. Now I can finally play it.
lol I know you said you zoned out on Fashion Dreamers but I just want to say it's a successor to the Style Savvy series on DS and 3DS. The games are amazing if you are into fashion and dress-up games, I feel like you should at least try them if anyone is ever curious about it. Working with influencers is basically evolution from the last game where you are store shop owner who is hired to dress idols. I'm really glad the series is still alive there is nothing else like it on the market that isn't shovelware.
Yes - I was about to comment along similar lines. 😀
I'm totally not the target audience for this, but Style Boutique (as it was called in PAL regions) was incredibly popular, sold well and was much loved by many players (including men), as I've learned over the years. I was always surprised Nintendo seemed to let it lapse .. but no, it rises again! 😄
Iv been playing Is metroid prime remaster since it came out lastnight wow with an old school gamecube controller love it
I kept telling myself Etrian Odyssey 6 would be shown. It wasn't... But 1-3 were! I just got into this series and have been buying them buy 3 is like $300 so getting that. We know 6 is coming because they did all the work to put these on switch with the map system which had to be a lot of work
So happy they released the FE expansion content today. I was desperately needing a magic emblem to boost my magic users 😅 it came at just the right time…although it took me nearly 3 hours to beat Soren in an epic battle.
Great video. I was actually most excited about the Etrian Odyssey remasters. Sadly the 3 games together will be sold for 80$ when they come out in June which is quite pricey but I always wanted to give them a try.
Better to give them a try on 3DS; not only are they cheaper (especially if Atlus does one more eshop sale, though I wouldn't bet on it), but you don't have to go all in on a series that you may not enjoy.
What a show! Great video, bro. 👍🔥
I loved how Johnny tries to will Metroid Prime 4 into existence when talking Metroid Prime Remastered up, lol. I hope it was meant to whet our appetites too, man :).
I can't believe there was no mention of Dragon Quest 3 hd 2d yet
Baten Kaitos 1 and 2 were my big ones. Then Etrian Odyssey 1-3. Hope they all get physical copies but bet Atlus won’t. They’re on ds which are crazy expensive 3 is $100s of dollars. 1 and 2 got Untold version remakes on 3DS but those different than original. Hopefully Bandai Namco comes through with physical for baten kaitos
New Natsu Yasumi game in the Japanese version of direct was announced, looking forward to it!
Enjoying the prime remaster and yes the spring ball is back
I am super excited about Deca Police and the Fantasy Life sequel because it's great to see Level 5 putting games out regularly in the west again.
I'm also really looking forward to the Xenoblade Chronicles 3 Expansion, the grand finale to the trilogy.
Same here. Metroid Prime was pretty cool, too. And seeing Game Boy and Gameboy Advance games on the Switch, too. Also pretty stoked for the two Baten Kaitos remasters.
I'm really exited for Etrian Odyssey. It's one of my favourite series. And for me that I live in Europe, it is difficult to obtain Etrian Odyssey 2 and 3 as they never released a PAL version.
Bandai Namco working with Monolith with Baten Kaitos is good news bc means Xenosaga trilogy is possible. I love Eternal Wings and the Lost Ocean and Origins pretty good too.
Can't wait for the etrian odyssey games. Also picking up octopath traveler 2 and metroid prime. Il wait and see with zelda, not a massive botw fan but willing to wait and see how it ends up.
Ghost trick was a surprise for me since I would never dream about a port or a remaster of it on any system but this is a great game that more people need to play...also professor layton coming back was another great surprise
I'll def replay the Pikmin series soon. But what versions? I played 1 and 2 on Wii, and 3 on Wii U.
But should I replay 1 and 2 on gamecube for a different experience and 3 on switch for a new experience?
Briefly played Sea of Stars and it’s already incredible. Look at the shadows of the characters and how they overlay onto every groove of the world. It’s absolutely wild.
That really impressed me too. Great demo, I'm looking forward to release day.
I recall seeing that the game takes place in the same world as "The Messenger", but numerous years BEFORE then.
I can see them adding Prime 2 and 3 in june around E3,
