Not that this matters, but I don't think Kirby fans really got anything. Although that SHOULD be fine since they got 3 games months apart for their anniversary.
For context, before everyone piles in on you needlessly. The MvC port thing was a MASSIVE bomb to drop on the Fightong game community out of nowhere on a nintendo direct. Like it's HUGE for us. Love the channel, ok byeeeee!
he doesn't deserve context. he has a videogame youtube channel and is unaware of the importance of mvc2. he's just a dumbass. it's his job to be aware of this stuff. there are plenty of franchises and genres that are not in my wheelhouse, but i have some knowledge about them and i don't make a living for knowing it.
@@draculathevampire934 Mio Memories in Orbit looks so good, DK Country Returns looks clean, new Super Mario Party, Metroid Prime 4, A fresh new take on Zelda, Brought back the M&L series, etc. for the Switches last year, this was a very good direct.
I know you kind of glossed over it Wood, but for us Ace Attorney fans, getting Investigations, especially Investigations 2, is really big news since the DS carts are so hard to find now and Investigations 2 was never officially released outside of Japan. But yeah, Zelda and the Mario Party releasing the day before my birthday were both big highlights for me. Pretty good Direct overall.
yeah almost unsubscribed after that literally just as fast as the 2 seconds it was shown not just any port its a big freaking deal to so many, just shows he really speaks for what he likes personally and i like that.
Why do you think games are getting free DLCs? Anything on the switch will look better for the next model, even Stray feels like a game ported to look bad until there's a system update, there's a giant library of exclusives and lots of people who has been asking for a better model, the system is pretty much selling itself.
Maybe a cross gen for me since it did say it was for the switch first also this is a switch gameplay not a switch 2 someone make an analysis on the gameplay trailer I'm talking about prime 4
"Street Fighter port", lol. Funny that channel called Beat'em ups ignored The Punisher being included too. But man, that MvC collection just slaps. For me it's bigger announcement than anything in this direct, especially since it has MvC2!
It's without a doubt the most important announcement today for gaming as a whole. FREEMVC2 ended like 3 years ago. That was an actual movement.... Zelda is playable now.... That's revolutionary? Lmao.
@@Sizzlinpapaya1014 It's more than nothing, but nobody outside of the FGC community was aware of that fact. MvC2 just isn't on most people's radar enough to be aware of the licensing jail it's been stuck in.

@@DontKnowDontCare6.9That one way to miss the entire point of making a game/games more available to a large number of people who've been asking for it for a LONG TIME.
New Mario & Luigi and Zelda games alone made this an S tier Direct for me. Throw Four Swords coming NSO, a banger looking Mario Party, DKC Returns HD, and Prime 4 on top of that, hoh my goodness we're feasting
Im definitely buying hello kitty, mario & luigi, zelda, looney tunes, and several others. Im so used to Nintendo disappointing me that my expectations were on the floor but i was actually genuinely surprised and excited over this direct. 😊
How are so many people just no selling the MvC stuff? People been waiting on that for almost a decade. First time so many things have been playable outside of their original methods and now it isn’t ridiculously expensive to do so.
It's alright to not know and not pretend to know, but the Capcom Collection is a HUGE deal. Arguably as big of a deal or bigger than Prime 4. Some of the games listed there have never even *been on a console*. So many amazing games in that collection with online multiplayer and rollback netcode (that means playing online won't blow chunks). It's also coming to all platforms, not just Switch, which is an even bigger deal. The MvC license has been basically completely dead for a long time and many, many people thought it wasn't coming back. There was even a big movement in the FGC to have MvC 2 re-released or remastered or *something* just so it isn't lost to the sands of time. After like, 3 years of radio silence Capcom randomly drops the collection *and* reinstates the Marvel Vs. Capcom UA-cam channel. Which also means it's pretty dang likely a new Marvel Vs. Capcom game is on the horizon.

Keep in mind they didn't say the usual "Metroid Prime 4, coming to Switch on InsertDateHere" They just said 2025. Could mean it's coming only for Switch 2 and they just didn't wanna mention that yet, or it could be that it'll come out for both (and they also didn't wanna mention that). Which means we don't know if this footage is from Switch 1 or Switch 2. Regardless, I hope I can play it on day 1 on the next Switch
I like that you go through the whole direct even if just lightly. A lot of people just talk about the one or two games they’re interested in, which is fine but this is nice too :)
Another Street Fighter port?!?!?! It's a Marvel vs Capcom collection!!!! This was honestly THE highlight of the Direct for me. I ordered an arcade stick just for this!
Talking about disrespectful, just mentioning capcom and calling it "Street Fighter port" when it was really one of the biggest things on this direct is just sickening...but the Direct was awesome!
There was a half dozen games on this that would have made the whole direct for me, heck even the NSO section was pure hype. This may be the best Direct for the Switch we've seen. I was not expecting this at all.
I'm actually really happy that they're bringing Donkey Kong Country Returns HD to Switch. I never finished the Wii/3DS version and it feels weird to have Tropical Freeze on Switch without the first game. Now if they could just port Luigi's Mansion 1 to Switch they'd have that whole series too.
Just casually brushes past one of the best announcements: Marvel vs Capcom 2 is coming to Switch with online multiplayer. Probably one of the best fighting games of all time.

You people are weirdos lmao...
I don't see any correlation between the 2. The switch 2 could be announced in Octover 2024 and released in March 2025, same timing as the Switch 1. It's likely the games announced for 2025 will be on both systems and only pushed back because waiting for the Switch 2 release.
The way I RAN while i was watching the direct to Wood’s stream!! It’s such a stunning art style, unique design, finallyyy playing as Zelda! Also that switch lite👀 add to cart
From what I can understand, the reason people make remakes or reruns is because the property is so good that they want new players who bought the new console to be able to play it too. Think Internet Archive, in that regard.
As a switch era Zelda fan, after waiting 6 years for TotK I sort of assumed seeing a new Zelda this early after it would be impossible. I didn’t even think about 2D Zelda and I’m so happy to have a new release to look forward to this soon.
Honestly getting a new mario and luigi game brought a tear to my eyes I felt so much happiness in that moment the M&L games got me through so much tough times I'm so thankful there's another one getting made
Pretty sure 2017 is when development restarted on it no? It was revealed at least a year or more before that though. Feel like it was revealed way back int he Wii U days honestly
I thought the Metroid scene was very similar to the beginning of Titanfall 2, from 2016, leaving the ship, a war going on, things falling, and Titanfall was much more beautiful! See, I'm comparing it to a game from almost a decade ago.
the fact that we could have fkn Metro Prime 4 and Legends Z-A as semi cross platform launch titles for Switch 2 is insane to me obviously we could not get them for switch 2 but just the idea is crazy to me
I'm actually pumped for DK Returns. It's one of my favorite Donkey Kong games and I've always wanted it on switch. As always, super pumped about new Zelda! Lol
BROOO, i love ya but come on "generic jrpgs? this is why turn based rpgs are dying. Mario & Luigi are AMAZING turn based games and All The turn based rpgs coming out ALL look absolutely amazing. If your small feeble mind cant be strategic than just say so.
Yeah that Fairy Tale 2 trailer is really when I found out I really want the switch to. I went to check my UA-cam settings to make sure the quality hadn't dropped on its own or something LOL
Exactly. You played one Mario party you've played them all. I could care less for another Mario party since it more about spending time with family than the game itself. Pick any one of them and we sit down and play.

@@BlazedragonlordPublisher doesnt develop the games though.
@@docc19 yeaaaaahhhhh, but at the same time, it's still gamemill tho, soooooo....
probably
Honestly, I’m most excited for all the dragon quest releases!
The best announcement was Marvel vs Capcom Collection
HELLO KITTY ISLAND ADVENTURE MENTIONED ‼‼‼‼‼‼
Sorry to break to you Wood but you passed away last night and now you are in heaven with the rest of us
As a switch era Zelda fan, after waiting 6 years for TotK I sort of assumed seeing a new Zelda this early after it would be impossible. I didn’t even think about 2D Zelda and I’m so happy to have a new release to look forward to this soon.
MVC 2 baby!!
Honestly getting a new mario and luigi game brought a tear to my eyes I felt so much happiness in that moment the M&L games got me through so much tough times I'm so thankful there's another one getting made
Was hoping for twilight princess remake but oh well 🥲
What a great journey we have had with the switch! It only feels right for it to end with a BANG! Loved with Direct ❤
I wonder if the Zelda game will be set in Hyrule with the Zora and Gorons or if it will be more Link’s Awakening.
I think both gerudo and zora are shown very briefly in the trailer.
16:40 only ever played metroid prime when the remaster came out and this was my exact thought the entire playthrough
I saw someone commenting that the game should be called "Legend of Zelda: The MIssing Link". That would have been such a cool name!
Ha! That's awesome!🤣
Just BREEZES past the most insane fighting game collection ever released
Can’t wait for the new Zelda!!!!!!!!!!
That mature app can only lead to one thing surely? BAD FUR DAY😍😍
0:39 Actually it’s 7 years. Metroid Prime 4 was first announced in 2017. Just wanted to clarify that for you Wood. It’s not been 8 years, it’s been 7.
Pretty sure 2017 is when development restarted on it no? It was revealed at least a year or more before that though. Feel like it was revealed way back int he Wii U days honestly
@@docc19Nope. It was E3 2017 when the game was first announced.
Mario & Luigi coming to a console for the first time is by far the biggest hype for me. Definitely will be purchasing it first day
Freddy Fazbear been real quiet since Coconut Mall....
I thought the Metroid scene was very similar to the beginning of Titanfall 2, from 2016, leaving the ship, a war going on, things falling, and Titanfall was much more beautiful! See, I'm comparing it to a game from almost a decade ago.
the fact that we could have fkn Metro Prime 4 and Legends Z-A as semi cross platform launch titles for Switch 2 is insane to me
obviously we could not get them for switch 2 but just the idea is crazy to me
I'm actually pumped for DK Returns. It's one of my favorite Donkey Kong games and I've always wanted it on switch. As always, super pumped about new Zelda! Lol
only problem is it'll be full price
MARIO AND LUIGI!!!
You could say this Nintendo direct 'Took you for a ride'.
5:03 among us leaked the direct!? Well that’s sus!
Fantasia looks great, "shut up YOUR face, what are you doing, you being disrespectful?"
I saw new Zelda and clicked immediately
i will NEVER get burned out on jrpgs
BROOO, i love ya but come on "generic jrpgs? this is why turn based rpgs are dying. Mario & Luigi are AMAZING turn based games and All The turn based rpgs coming out ALL look absolutely amazing. If your small feeble mind cant be strategic than just say so.
Not the way to get the message across, but ye jrpgs Are Very fun and cool 😎 I was excited by like 2 of them the rest were kinda generic tho
At least we will always have Pokémon
So many new games!!! I'm not used to being flooded with content like this!!! I might short circut!!!
Yeah that Fairy Tale 2 trailer is really when I found out I really want the switch to. I went to check my UA-cam settings to make sure the quality hadn't dropped on its own or something LOL
10/10 Direct and 11/10 reaction from wood!
Wood "I'm already burned out with JRPGS"
Also Wood 'OMG A NEW MARIO PARTY"
Exactly. You played one Mario party you've played them all. I could care less for another Mario party since it more about spending time with family than the game itself. Pick any one of them and we sit down and play.
@@smidlee7747 I don't really get making so many new minigames, I doubt there's a single person who is bored of every minigame in existence and needs more
man as much as i love mario and luigi i cant be happy until the miis come back😭
they were a wii/wii u thing, as cool as they are it wouldn't make sense for switch if they're named after those other systems
