I love how specific Arlo gets. Like it'd be so easy to just be like "we'll get a new DK Country Game announcement" , but no Arlo gives us a plot, a reveal trailer, and a title, and it's beautiful.
Arlo never gets his predictions wrong, nintendo just waits in fear every year for arlos video and ends up yelling in rage and scrapping all their plans
That’s literally what I’m thinking, here’s my “theory”. Lions are known as the king of the jungle, and do you remember the design of the cages the waddle dees were trapped in? It was Lion themed. I think the leader of the beast corps is a Lion, and in the final boss, you’ll somehow end up fighting a reality warping Demi god.
It's just another normal day for Kirby. Another day, another oppurtunity to beat up a reality-bending, power-hungry monster, just because they did something like interrupt his nap, or take his food.
"There's a bad pig buy and Kirby's gotta fight him." The only missing detail is that the bad pig guy made a pact with Satan and you've got yourself a Kirby game right there!
"Please make sure to come back and laugh at me when we get the whole new generation of Pokemon game instead (of Pokemon Legends Arceus DLC)" That was a good prediction right there
If Earthbound ever got a remake I’d really like to see it styled after the clay models from the player’s guide. I know I’m not the only one who’s said this, but it’s just too perfect.
I am loving the more off-the-wall humor Arlo is giving us lately. The walk the dinosaur bit, the hat throwing, Seamus’s ship blowing up at the end of that really heartfelt video, he’s being weird and it’s hilarious and I love it. I love it so much that I stopped the video to come make this comment.
that's why i love arlo. on top of being just a genuinely sweet and wholesome guy, he somehow comes off like a real life cartoon character and i always enjoy it.
I really like a lot of the ideas in here (especially the Peach Odyssey game), but I feel like the only one that actually has a chance of happening 100% is DK farting in the Mario movie trailer.
The way my heart dropped at the sight of that amazing Mother concept art. One of my favorite and most beloved series of all time? Remade? Nintendo would never
The Super Mario Movie will be accompanied by a re-release of the infamous Super Mario Bros. cereal. Mario Party Superstars will get some DLC in the form of more playable boards and possibly a couple more playable characters as well. E3 will see the release of Super Mario Kart Infinity, as well as a new Mario Paint game, possibly titled Mario Acrylic. We'll also see Zelda Maker and possibly a Zelda 1/2 remake. I'm still sticking to my guns on BOTW2's title, which will be Bridge To The Future.
You’ve been killing it with uploads Arlo. You went from a video every other week to a few videos each week. Keep it up if you can brother but don’t push yourself too much homie. Merry christmas
If that odyssey prediction comes true I’d probably cry tears of joy. Odyssey had some of the best characterization of princess peach and would love to see that continuing
Same!!!! Hard same. I got excited even just looking at the prediction animations, because if something like that happened, it would be WAY too cool for me not to just scream out in joy.
Agreed. I don't mean to put Kane through too much work, but it would be super cool if he did a second video like this for the second semester of each year.
I love how instead of being vague and saying stuff like “there may be a metroid prime, probably” he’s fully trying to guess every little detail and thats way more fun to watch, and it’d be way more impressive if he’s right, especially for the crazier guessed like the Yoshi mobile game
i feel like even if he gets names and villains and all of the intricate details wrong, it would still mostly be right because he guessed close enough. like, what if instead of a yoshi mobile game, its like some hammer bro game lol? he wasnt %100 right, but to guess that they would do something crazy in that format is good enough to say that he was right.
That drained ocean idea really resonated with me for some reason. There are so many familiar settings for levels in platformers that have been done to death so a drained ocean sounds like a pretty fresh idea for an environment to explore.
Nintendo seems to be on a kick of reviving long dormant franchises recently (metroid, advance wars, pokemon snap, Famicom detective club) so i predict there will be at least one revival this year. Kid icarus would be the one that I'd like the most.
God that DK game concept is INCREDIBLE. I hope that prediction is SPOT ON… for all us DK fans’ sake. The rest of the predictions were also great especially the Metroid stuff. I 100% agree with it.
Even if your track record is on the low side, I always hope that your predictions will turn out to be true, because they're so much fun and you put a lot of thought into all the details!
Arlo's yearly predictions of Nintendo are like watching a better timeline than where we are. It fills me with such high hopes for Nintendo and then they pull things like the NSO Expansion Pass.
Once again, Arlo has gotten me hyped for games that don’t exist (yet, ideally). Super Peach Odyssey and the Earthbound Beginnings remake would be jaw-dropping, screaming-from-joy moments for me if they actually happen!
Yeah that game needs a remake badly it has aged like ass. I beat it a few times,but the unbalanced difficulty near the end of the game and the obnoxious random encounters make it a game I will never return.
10:15 - Point and laugh, y'all. Point and laugh. (It's okay, I also would not have predicted a whole new Pokemon generation. I likewise expected an Arceus DLC. But is there really a way to correctly speculate Nintendo's plans without divine intervention? Doubt it, unless you're Arlo with ACNH.)
My random predictions for 2022: 1. Gen 9 Pokemon game late in the year taking place in a new region inspired by South America (which would later set up a Pokemon Legends Mew) 2. Astral Chain 2 3. Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Explorers remake 4. A new quirky horror-comedy-based IP in which you traverse the afterlife. 5. A 3D Yoshi game. 6. Pikmin 4, or at least a Switch remake of Pikmin 1 and 2.
Great ideas, I just don't think Platinum can make Bayonetta and Astral Chain at the same time. But as a Brazilian, I would love if gen 9 was inspired in South America.
@@Bramblestar9339 from a market standpoint, I still think Nintendo would make games inspired on Germany, Netherlands, Spain or Portugal before making it about South America. Nintendo hasn't really made an effort to sell games or systems on most of South America recently.
Super Peach Odyssey is actually such a good idea though, although I think my idea is that we'll get a Super Mario Odyssey 2: Lunar Mayhem, which will satisfy the Galaxy 3 and Odyssey 2 crowds. I tried coming up with a description of what the game would look like but I don't have anything too good.
The design of the cages the Waddle Dees are trapped in show that the villain is probably gonna be a saber-tooth tiger, but the pig guy thing doesn't seem too far off actually. One theme I recommend is looking into to predict Kirby plots is subtle details. The current director Shinya Kumazaki absolutely LOVES his subtle details. The cage design I mentioned looks to be a subtle detail.
@@ma3mc3mu-X True, but at the same time, the leader being an extinct animal actually fits well with the "forgotten land" theming. An animal lost to time in a land lost to time.
I wanted to say this feels like fanfiction, but the Nintendo Directs this year have all played out like fanfiction. Nintendo has the best presentations.
Your pfp is very cool. Not just because it's a character from FMAB, it also just looks cool 👌 Has nothing to do with what you said, but it just caught my eye.
Literally nothing that actually ends up happening can live up to that "Earthbound: New Beginnings" idea. A Mother remake would be AMAZING, especially with a cutesy artstyle, the more toy or claymation-esque artstyle fitting the the classic Mother series minifigures.
I always wonder if Nintendo pays attention to videos like these. One can hope, brilliant ideas, this would make for a golden year for Nintendo, formative memories for kids would be made to say the least.
one prediction to add: there'll be a remake for fire emblem genealogy of the holy war that will be released in september 2022, it'll include some of the additions from three houses(like the batalions) and will feature a day-night cycle, where stronger enemies can appear depending on the time
@@Lightspeeds You think they’ll remove the one instance of incest where it’s explicitly shown to be bad? I’m sure they’ll remove most or all of the other incest, but that one is definitely staying.
With arvis and deirdre they’ll either fudge the family tree so there cousins, and/or kind of dance around it in the dialogue, not explicitly stating it, just alluding to it. Also with the day night thing, I assume you mean it changing over turns to help sell the scale of the maps. I think they do something like that but just mess with stats, like biorithim but for the whole map.
I love the added detail of "entire-head-comes-off-when-he-talks" Shinya Takahashi bowing at the phrase "very well." (Also, yeah, spot on prediction; Takahashi WILL ask us what we think. It's becoming as much of a Direct staple as the late 'n' great |Directly|.
I feel like I just found your channel but this is already the 3rd Nintendo prediction video I’ve see the day you’ve uploaded! Merry Christmas to you and your family 🎄❤️
My hope for this year is Kid Icarus Switch, even if it's unlikely. Also I'd LOVE a peach-centric mario game, and an animated Splatoon series would be an instant buy of the NSO expansion for me.
They'd need to really convince me they plan to do more with Peach, cause we've already had a role reversal game and it only highlighted further how much of a bland charachter she is. It was'nt like in Mario rpg where she had an actual personaility and was willing to sneak out if it meant helping Mario.
@@jilp2002 And I love that you brush off my point because it's not what you want to hear. The only time I've ever liked Peach is in mario rpg where she was actually given agency and a bit more personality. Every other appearence she's completely bland and useless. That's why I'm not super excited for a game starring her, and the one she got already did'nt do her any favors for me.
It sounds ok. It could actually be better than Mario Odyssey, but probably not considering Peach is possibly the most “casual” of all Nintendo IPs, and the first Odyssey was already way too easy. I have my fingers crossed for Galaxy 3, or something completely new.
I think this might be one of your most impressive videos ever. The ideas are great, the editing is perfect, and all the extra original art to illustrate the concepts makes the video a really complete package. So much hard work and effort clearly went into this, and I enjoyed watching it.
Imagine if Nintendo sees the concept for super peach odyssey, then Koizumi says "Yeah we've been developing Super Mario Odyssey 2 for over 3 years, but this concept seems better than what we've come up with, let's just restart development."
Honestly, even if none of this ends up happening in any way, I always look forward to these videos just because of how fun they are! It's fun to speculate and see if Nintendo would even consider some of this stuff in the future, even if it's not next year but even later down the line. Also I really hope we get a Star Fox next year, I neeeeeeeeeeeed it
"I predict there's gonna be a Zelda direct!" Don't do that. Don't give me hype. In all seriousness, I do enjoy these prediction videos. Very fun to try and figure out what Nintendo will do in 2022!
I feel like a prediction for a new Fire Emblem reveal would be pretty safe. In summer of next year it will be 3 years since Fire Emblem: Three Houses released, 4 years since it was revealed, and Fire Emblem games often release with 2 or 3 years in between. If the new game were to be revealed next year, and like Three Houses, released the next year, it will be four years since.
Yeah I’m personally really shocked he didn’t include an FE prediction considering the FE cycle of 2-3 years and he even mentioned he made a prediction last year about it.
If it's a remake, it's going to be a remake of FE7 but in the middle of Lyn's story, Mark (AKA The player character) will be knocked out and wake up to see... ROY?! It's not JUST a remake of FE 7 but of FE 6 as well. The twist is that Mark is actually Morgan from Awakening, bouncing back and forth between the two games. There would be an option to play the games separately, but the new combined games will help fill in the gaps left by the two's original releases along with new chapters where Eliwood, Hector, and Lyn team up with Roy, Lilina, and Wolt (Retroactively made Lyn's son) to save not just Elibe of the Past and Present, but also of the Future! (Yea, I know it got a bit fanfic-y at the end, but Citizens Unite really gave me an idea of how two games would interact with each other)
I'm looking forward to it. Now that they have an engine for the Switch I want to see an FE game that looks like a top shelf Switch title that also expands on the FE gameplay like 3H had
@@Toonrick12Wolt is Rebecca’s son and Hector/Lyn is the “pushed” pairing, they’re not going to make Wolt Lyn’s son I doubt they remake FE7 over FE4 or FE9 either
What I really want and I mean REALLY want is a remake of the earthbound trilogy (could be in the style of link’s awakening?) A the demand is still high and B we could finally have mother 3 for real this time PLEASE NINTENDO DON’T PASS ON FREE MONEY! Edit: I wrote this before watching the video and I’m so happy that Arlo agrees!!!
@@notbutz9737 How would they do that? The only thing I could see them removing (or changing) is the magypsies, and there is much more to Mother 3 than them
YESSSSSSS! MOTHER 1 STUFF! Thank GOD! I'm so happy to see it get a mention at all! I hope this one turns out true! Also the Splatoon stuff sounds TANTALIZING!
I love all these episodes of predictions year after year. Because even if you completely miss the mark, your imagination, and the sketches are the best. Thank you for being one of my favorite youtubers of all time, and i hope you are having a nice end of year.
I remember Arlo say pikmin 4 will NOT be announced in an attempt for the universe to make him wrong lol and then saying that never works. But I can't find the video or clip
Imagine Nintendo revives F-Zero and just makes Arlo miss by one year his prediction. I don't really see Nintendo betting on old franchises for at least a couple years until they have time to pick new projects to follow Metroid's success.
my favourite time of the year to see us all predict nintendos like we know whats going to happen while laughing about our predictions last year, merry christmas arlo never change.
I hope you read this, Arlo. I love to watch your videos because you speak with such genuine reverence for the stuff you love. It’s infectious, and in this broken world we live in I cherish that feeling. Thanks!
If I could add to your “King K. Rool draining the ocean” idea for a new Donkey Kong, I have an extra suggestion: What if he did that to reactivate Krocodile aisle from Donkey Kong Country 2 which was submerged at the bottom of the sea! That would be AMAZING!! 😁
Earthbound, Starfox and a Xenoblade announcement? That would be an awesome 2022 for me! Although I'd be disappointed about having no new Fire Emblem announcement
Even if the predictions aren't accurate, Arlo's characterization of Nintendo's marketing is spot on.
"We can't show you any more of this game your waiting to see today cause it's not ready, but heres a new thing we've got to show you"
He definitely knows Nintendo's patterns when it comes to how they structure Directs. I could realistically see a lot of this actually happening.

In Kirby it usually starts as a “pig guy” but in the end you fight a dude who bends reality it self and beat it with the special power that game has
That’s literally what I’m thinking, here’s my “theory”. Lions are known as the king of the jungle, and do you remember the design of the cages the waddle dees were trapped in? It was Lion themed. I think the leader of the beast corps is a Lion, and in the final boss, you’ll somehow end up fighting a reality warping Demi god.
It's just another normal day for Kirby. Another day, another oppurtunity to beat up a reality-bending, power-hungry monster, just because they did something like interrupt his nap, or take his food.

It isn't hard to believe this is what actually happens
No, they aren’t lol. Arlo historically gets these videos wrong.
"There's a bad pig buy and Kirby's gotta fight him."
The only missing detail is that the bad pig guy made a pact with Satan and you've got yourself a Kirby game right there!
Oh, so it's just a EarthBound Crossover where Kirby figths Porky and his army.
But I thought the bad pig guy is the main villain of the Zelda series?
(to clarify, this is a joke)
@@matthewmuir8884 Kirby's had to fight Metroids before, so Ganon isn't out of the realm of possibility
and he has to get launched from a large slingshot and knock down towers to fight the evil pig, like a bird
The cages looked more like sabertooth cats imo.
I love how Arlo is basically predicting his own future as much as Nintendo's
"Please make sure to come back and laugh at me when we get the whole new generation of Pokemon game instead (of Pokemon Legends Arceus DLC)"
That was a good prediction right there
yup haha
If Earthbound ever got a remake I’d really like to see it styled after the clay models from the player’s guide. I know I’m not the only one who’s said this, but it’s just too perfect.

God I can get behind that. It’ll make me wish for an Earthbound/Mother 2 remake, AND PRAY FOR AN EARTHBOUND/MOTHER 3 REMAKE/RELEASE!!!!!!!!
The clay model is phenomenal
i hope we get a remake with the style of that one pitch from the gamecube days (it got shot down sadly but it looked cool)
Mother 1 needs a remake more than ever.

I really like a lot of the ideas in here (especially the Peach Odyssey game), but I feel like the only one that actually has a chance of happening 100% is DK farting in the Mario movie trailer.
It's illumination so it's basically inevitable unfortunately
Also knowing illumination, they’re probably gonna also toss an annoying Despicable Me reference in it too
Doubt that since Nintendo is under control of the movie
I think a burp is more their thing.

@@Lightspeeds You think they’ll remove the one instance of incest where it’s explicitly shown to be bad? I’m sure they’ll remove most or all of the other incest, but that one is definitely staying.
With arvis and deirdre they’ll either fudge the family tree so there cousins, and/or kind of dance around it in the dialogue, not explicitly stating it, just alluding to it. Also with the day night thing, I assume you mean it changing over turns to help sell the scale of the maps. I think they do something like that but just mess with stats, like biorithim but for the whole map.
I love the added detail of "entire-head-comes-off-when-he-talks" Shinya Takahashi bowing at the phrase "very well." (Also, yeah, spot on prediction; Takahashi WILL ask us what we think. It's becoming as much of a Direct staple as the late 'n' great |Directly|.
It's like his catch-phrase honestly.
I feel like I just found your channel but this is already the 3rd Nintendo prediction video I’ve see the day you’ve uploaded! Merry Christmas to you and your family 🎄❤️
same, dude
My hope for this year is Kid Icarus Switch, even if it's unlikely.
Also I'd LOVE a peach-centric mario game, and an animated Splatoon series would be an instant buy of the NSO expansion for me.
Kid Icarus Uprising is my favorite game of all time so that’s all I’ve been asking for years now haha
I think the only prediction as outlandish as Mother 1 being remade is that Nintendo will actually run two full directs within 3 months of one another.
If Nintendo actually makes Super Peach Odyssey, I would buy it so fast. I've never bothered with day 1 releases, but I just might for this.
They'd need to really convince me they plan to do more with Peach, cause we've already had a role reversal game and it only highlighted further how much of a bland charachter she is. It was'nt like in Mario rpg where she had an actual personaility and was willing to sneak out if it meant helping Mario.
@@Cloud-dt6xb I love how you think your input matters
@@jilp2002 And I love that you brush off my point because it's not what you want to hear. The only time I've ever liked Peach is in mario rpg where she was actually given agency and a bit more personality. Every other appearence she's completely bland and useless. That's why I'm not super excited for a game starring her, and the one she got already did'nt do her any favors for me.
@@jilp2002 Love how you weren’t involved and decided to interject with a bland, generic comment that doesn’t actually add value to the conversation
@@Cloud-dt6xb wasn't the ds peach game borderline sexist lmao
I really hope that Super Peach Odyssey is correct. That idea sounds dope!
Meh, I'd rather it just be Super Mario Odyssey 2 with Princess Peach and Luigi being playable.
I'm personally hoping for Super Wario Odyssey myself.
It sounds ok. It could actually be better than Mario Odyssey, but probably not considering Peach is possibly the most “casual” of all Nintendo IPs, and the first Odyssey was already way too easy.
I have my fingers crossed for Galaxy 3, or something completely new.
Super Waluigi Wodyssey
@@Yorgivgm9618 I agree
"Babe wake up, it's time to watch Arlo be oddly specific and incredibly wrong about Nintendo's upcoming year"
I think this might be one of your most impressive videos ever. The ideas are great, the editing is perfect, and all the extra original art to illustrate the concepts makes the video a really complete package. So much hard work and effort clearly went into this, and I enjoyed watching it.
arlo is a horrific amalgamation of scott the woz, old normal boots content, and dunkey
Imagine if Nintendo sees the concept for super peach odyssey, then Koizumi says "Yeah we've been developing Super Mario Odyssey 2 for over 3 years, but this concept seems better than what we've come up with, let's just restart development."
Arlo predicting Mother!? Not the most usual thing. Also, I really desperately want that DK content!!!
As a mother fan (also known as a beat to death little chimp), an Eartbound Begginings remake would make me cry
Honestly, even if none of this ends up happening in any way, I always look forward to these videos just because of how fun they are!
It's fun to speculate and see if Nintendo would even consider some of this stuff in the future, even if it's not next year but even later down the line.
Also I really hope we get a Star Fox next year, I neeeeeeeeeeeed it
"I predict there's gonna be a Zelda direct!"
Don't do that. Don't give me hype. In all seriousness, I do enjoy these prediction videos. Very fun to try and figure out what Nintendo will do in 2022!
I feel like a prediction for a new Fire Emblem reveal would be pretty safe. In summer of next year it will be 3 years since Fire Emblem: Three Houses released, 4 years since it was revealed, and Fire Emblem games often release with 2 or 3 years in between. If the new game were to be revealed next year, and like Three Houses, released the next year, it will be four years since.
Yeah I’m personally really shocked he didn’t include an FE prediction considering the FE cycle of 2-3 years and he even mentioned he made a prediction last year about it.
If it's a remake, it's going to be a remake of FE7 but in the middle of Lyn's story, Mark (AKA The player character) will be knocked out and wake up to see... ROY?! It's not JUST a remake of FE 7 but of FE 6 as well. The twist is that Mark is actually Morgan from Awakening, bouncing back and forth between the two games. There would be an option to play the games separately, but the new combined games will help fill in the gaps left by the two's original releases along with new chapters where Eliwood, Hector, and Lyn team up with Roy, Lilina, and Wolt (Retroactively made Lyn's son) to save not just Elibe of the Past and Present, but also of the Future!
(Yea, I know it got a bit fanfic-y at the end, but Citizens Unite really gave me an idea of how two games would interact with each other)
I'm looking forward to it. Now that they have an engine for the Switch I want to see an FE game that looks like a top shelf Switch title that also expands on the FE gameplay like 3H had
@@Toonrick12Wolt is Rebecca’s son and Hector/Lyn is the “pushed” pairing, they’re not going to make Wolt Lyn’s son
I doubt they remake FE7 over FE4 or FE9 either
I predict something like this too, and I hope the main weapon of a new fe game won’t be a sword ⚔️
I hope Nintendo will do SOMETHING with the Mother series next year.
This joke gets funnier every year!
Sadly
I REALLY want a Splatoon animated series!!!!!!!!!! They could call it SplaTOON!
Came back to chuckle at the Pokemon prediction lolol you're the best arlo
the bowing at 2:53 made me lose my absolute mind that is my favorite thing ever
What I really want and I mean REALLY want is a remake of the earthbound trilogy (could be in the style of link’s awakening?) A the demand is still high
and B we could finally have mother 3 for real this time
PLEASE NINTENDO DON’T PASS ON FREE MONEY!
Edit: I wrote this before watching the video and I’m so happy that Arlo agrees!!!
I bet they will underdeliver on Mother 3/Earthbound 2, cutting everything that made the Original Japanese Released beloved by foreigners.
@@notbutz9737 How would they do that? The only thing I could see them removing (or changing) is the magypsies, and there is much more to Mother 3 than them
While kid Icarus seems to be left under
The Mother games don't even have that high of sales in Japan. Remaking all of them is far from free money.
Props to Kane for the editing! It's very polished and adds a lot to the video!
YESSSSSSS! MOTHER 1 STUFF!
Thank GOD!
I'm so happy to see it get a mention at all! I hope this one turns out true!
Also the Splatoon stuff sounds TANTALIZING!
I love all these episodes of predictions year after year. Because even if you completely miss the mark, your imagination, and the sketches are the best. Thank you for being one of my favorite youtubers of all time, and i hope you are having a nice end of year.
Is anyone else here to see if he predicted Pikmin 4 because they forgot? Cause I am.
I remember Arlo say pikmin 4 will NOT be announced in an attempt for the universe to make him wrong lol and then saying that never works.
But I can't find the video or clip
@@napdogs me too!!!
With Metroid making a comeback I’m hoping they give Starfox another go. It’s easily my favorite of Nintendo’s more abandoned series
Starfox Zero 3D World: Cosmic Freeze Edition coming to Switch 2022! Now with even worse gyro controls!
@@TrunkJunky m.ua-cam.com/video/bDtw9VBU108/v-deo.html
Sadly Peppy's voice actor died of COVID-19
Imagine Nintendo revives F-Zero and just makes Arlo miss by one year his prediction. I don't really see Nintendo betting on old franchises for at least a couple years until they have time to pick new projects to follow Metroid's success.
If they do eventually give us a mainline Peach title, we need Daisy to be the unlockable Luigi character.
"You can now play as Daisy"
my favourite time of the year to see us all predict nintendos like we know whats going to happen while laughing about our predictions last year, merry christmas arlo never change.
I hope you read this, Arlo. I love to watch your videos because you speak with such genuine reverence for the stuff you love. It’s infectious, and in this broken world we live in I cherish that feeling. Thanks!
Kane is an amazing artist, i absolutely adore his Bowser! So awesome
I would honestly love another Peach game.
Super peach Odyssey sounds amazing. I could see earthbound happening too. I think your right about Arceus getting dlc too!
Thanks for accurately portraying the hell we Pokemon fans are stuck in
Always a blast coming back here and seeing how well Arlo's predictions have aged.
2:49 - This is the best part! Congrats, editor!
Oh no, that Earthbound Beginnings remake sounds amazing, and now I’m upset because I know its not gonna happen. :(
It's adorable how optimistic you are.
I would kill for a remake of the first Mother Game...
The production of this video was so good that it made me come here and write something to feed lord algorithm. Superb work!
Really great editing and concept art guys!
If I could add to your “King K. Rool draining the ocean” idea for a new Donkey Kong, I have an extra suggestion: What if he did that to reactivate Krocodile aisle from Donkey Kong Country 2 which was submerged at the bottom of the sea! That would be AMAZING!! 😁
Oh man, I can’t wait to revisit this video periodically throughout this year to lament all the cool things not happening.
Earthbound, Starfox and a Xenoblade announcement? That would be an awesome 2022 for me!
Although I'd be disappointed about having no new Fire Emblem announcement
saaame
Hello, i have come back to laugh at Arlo because we are, in fact, getting the next generation of Pokemon!
Lmaoooo
Plot twist, all of this stuff was going to happen, but they will change it slightly because Arlo predicted it perfectly.
