@@mikematei They've become pretty corporate and soulless these days. Formulaic lazy boring directs, with the same exact beats. The passing of Iwata, and Reggie jumping ship didn't help at all either. But really, I miss the late 80's & 90's Nintendo the most. Actually, I miss the late 80's and early 90's period. Vanilla ice was right, the 90's was the last greatest decade before computers ruined the world. lol Also, the early to mid 90's trumped the late 90's 10 fold. There's no comparison. 90 & 91 still had the tail end of the 80's oozing into them, amazing times to be alive. Now we're living in a world with Cell phone zombie broccoli headed teenagers and tatood splattered try hards with dirty viking beards. I miss the neon colours and saved by the bell wardrobes lol
@@NintenPizzaNow it seems they are going after ROM sites for having old Nintendo games. You know the games they will never release again and would rather let them disappear than let anyone enjoy them. I mean simply make them $0.99 for download to the minis, FFS.
80's/90's Nintendo commercials had epicness. Now you're Playing with Power! The old commercial voice guy sounds more badass. Now this Zelda trailer guy sounds like something out of a preschool kids show.
That unimpressed look on Mike's face in the thumbnail is hilarious. Anyway, I just liked that NOT ONE TOAD was present in the Mario & Luigi Brothership video. In Dream Team and Paper Jam, there were friggin' generic-looking Toads EVERYWHERE! The Mario RPGs are supposed to have unique characters or traditional characters with unique designs.
People these days really defend remasters and remakes. Remasters are the same exact game and most remakes change the original’s intention so much but nobody looks to deeply into things and only like it because the graphics are shiny
I saw a guy do a comparison of the wii version of Donkey Kong Returns compared to the hd remake. And it seems like a big downgrade. They removed and changed lots of effects. Like taking out sunlight shining between trees and a lot of other things.
@@mikematei they "added" the extra stages of the 3DS version. But what they realy did was just porting the 3DS game, thats why its ugly. Its like the Grand Thef Auto Trilogy. They ported the phone version of the game. And used an AI upscaler. It was a disaster.
I'm glad someone here understood what I was complaining about. That Zelda game might be fine. My issue is that the narrator of the direct sounds like he is talking to a 2 year old. And the old games like Zelda, Zelda 2, LTTP and Ocarina didn't give the impression that the franchise was for a toddler. But it seems like that is very much the direction they are going these days. The narrator voice was the same shit on the Mario Wonder trailer. The company didn't use to do this. Go look at old Nintendo commercials and see the vibe those had. Now it is like they are talking down to the consumer.
@@mikematei you were 6 when Legend of Zelda, a game targeted at 6 year olds was released. Congratulations for being indoctrinated into games that were designed to waste the time and money of young children: your coins (arcade) and time (limited lives/continues to artificially lengthen games) I'm only a few years younger, so I get it I somewhat get it, but that you find anything about Zelda, Zelda 2, or LTTP to be anything other than games squarely designed for young children is hilarious. I think your imagination was getting ahead of you, or maybe the "edgy" 80's/90's marketing got in your head or something somewhere along the way. I grew up playing Bubble Bobble, I'm not about to go saying Taito has infantilized a game that explicitly already was. .
@@Crazy_Gamer_OG How do they compare to, say, the SNES version of Dragon Quest III? I played the original trilogy that's already available on Switch and the sprites are atrocious. Additionally, it seems like they're missing some features and animations from later updates to those games.
@@TheZaiusimo, for now the SNES versions are definitely the definitive ways to play the original trilogy. They actually have animation for all the monsters and the music for III is top tier. The switch ports are so bad I've actually told people not to buy those and wait for the HD2D remake comes out
Games that were available in the past. Then delisted. And now people get to buy them again. Nintendo's favorite thing to do. Sell you a game. Take it away. Then resell it to you. And sometimes in a lesser form. Like this Donkey Kong HD "remaster"
@@mikematei If I recall, the MvC games have been extremely priced up the ass and very scarce for physical versions of the game. It used to be on the PS store and Xbox store but its been taken off the store for many years now. This makes it readily available and has dedicated online and rollback net code.
The thing to laugh even harder at is how butthurt people get when I shit on all this modern Nintendo crap. To be fair there's a few good things in this direct. But very little.
Compare that baby talk to the Japanese Famicom DISKU SYSTEME Zelda commercials with the father and daughter. Those commercials are amazing, funny, relatable, adorable, and extremely memorable. That's how it's done.
In Legendary Axe 2, the buttplug is the fastest and longest range but weakest, the sword is middle of the road with good range and damage, the axe has shortest range but destroys things really quick. The Axe devastates bosses at level 5
He's one of the few that's actually genuine and real. It's refreshing, Vs the countless bug eyed mouth gaping fakers hamming it up and shrieking like a bunch of childish maniacs just for clicks! :P
@@NintenPizza Yeah I hate that. Also there's so many gamers that will call a game a masterpiece even though they think it's a very flawed game. They have no idea what a masterpiece means anymore. They think if nintendo releases a zelda game it's an automatic masterpiece whether they actually really liked it or not, it's nonsense.
@@NintenPizza Ever thought about the fact that some people react that way naturally? Some people are really emotional about series they like. If you don’t get that then I don’t know what to tell you.
About the engagement farming in the beginning. I always hate people that comment under old music videos the current year like "Who else is listening to this in 2023?"
Watching you react to that stupid egg ghost thing with a hat in that anime game was hilarious. Just how you said 'What the fuck is that?' had me in stiches.
I have been wanting sequels to F-Zero, a new 3D Donkey Kong, or a sequel to Wario World. Hell, let Waluigi World happen or something. What ever happened to 3D platformers? They hardly ever come out anymore
Mike, you did well! Both of those games are seriously tough, especially with the limited continues. We played the first game if you wanna see another guy really rage at it!
More Legendary than the axe is the difficulty. PC Engine has amazing shmups(and bomberman games). When it comes to platformers and adventures games, they start out fun but when things get tough the crappy controls and bad hit detection become more apparent and then they are not so fun. Very similar to the Master System in that regard.
The Mario & Luigi game seems oddly similar to Wind Waker on a basic level. Cartoonish art style, seafaring adventures, island hopping. Nintendo’s ability to rehash old products, strip them down, repackage, resell and charge full price for them is nothing short of masterful. In their defense, greed has pretty much always been their policy. I remember them strong-arming retailers over the price of the NES.
Yes! We had the Mousercize cassette (and it came with an exercise booklet with routines you could do along with the songs), great memories! PS ever reconsider trying some C64 streams (maybe on the C64 Maxi, or even just use VICE)?
Thank you. That's been my biggest critique so far of people praising this game as being fresh and original (and even the people complaining it's woke)..... it's basically just a half-heart-ed re-imagining of that crappy _Wand of Gamelon_ game. When the guy in the video said that the new Zelda was basically a new and innovative entry, I almost laughed.
@@FreddyKruegerRealEstate Wand of Gamelon was a sidescroller like Zelda 2, this one is an overhead with a bigger emphasis on puzzle solving than action. Just because Zelda is the protagonist, doesn't make them the same.
Lol. I was actually referring to "Zelda's Adventur." it's the top-down one, and I would swear the first weapon you get was a wand. Anyway I can't consider it a fresh idea. Since it's just feels like a Zelda themed version of dragon quest builders.
💯 Agree. All Nintendo does now are remakes and remasters. They can't make anything new and exclusive to save their damn lives. Funny thing is most of their decent games are 3rd party and are available on PS5 and Xbox, it's like why tf would I play them on the Switch at that point? Smfh 🤦🏻♂️
To be fair, a lot of people want more remasters from Nintendo. They still won't rerelease the Zelda HD games on Switch for some reason. Why tf are they porting Luigi's Mansion 2 but not Zelda:ALBW, OoT 3D, MM 3D, Samus Returns, or 3D Land? It's a fucking insult.
Thanks for actually understanding my point about wanting more games that are NEW and exclusive. Most commenters for some reason can not understand that is what I want. Is it really that hard to understand? I want Nintendo to make new IPs and make games that don't look like ipad trash. Most of the games here look like dogshit for 2 year olds. They can shove Hobbit room simulator up their asses.
@@Crazy_Gamer_OG I wouldn't have a problem with the remasters if they were making new cool shit to go along with it. Metroid 4 might be good, but again that's Metroid. A franchise thats been around for over 30 years. When I say new I mean NEW. A new Mario, Zelda or Metroid doesn't count. I want them to come up with some new ideas that are good.
The Mario and Luigi game looks poor graphically to me. I personally just don't like that art style. Maybe that Zelda game will be okay, but I hate how they have the narrator talk in a baby voice over the footage. It makes me not want to play it. Metroid Prime 4 I will play someday.
@@mikematei Alright, I did went back replayed all of the Mario & Luigi series and all of those games have beautiful graphics on the handhelds but yeah this art style made into 3D, that makes me question too? The Zelda game could be pretty good but yeah that narrator in the trailer made it worse. And Metroid Prime 4 I have already beaten the previous games except Metroid Prime: Remastered.
I like when you pull out the old Wishbook catalogs. I have the ‘80-‘85 era of Sears, JCPenny, Montgomery Ward ones. Sad part was I had to get bifocals in order to read them.
4:23:42 The best hentai is the English dub of Bible Black. If anyone doesn't know what that is, go find it. But it HAS to be the english dub. It is THE greatest piece of unintentional comedy I've ever seen. It's beyond hilarious.
Pretty much just Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom and Metroid Prime 4 for me. I am, however, pleased Marvel Vs. Capcom games are being made available to and introduced to new people.
It might be a good game. What I was mad about was how the narrator was making it sound like a game for babies. And that's not the direction I want the Zelda franchise going in. I want it to be more like Dark Souls or Diablo. Back when I would play Zelda as a kid, I thought it was this badass world. Now it's embarrassing. When can we have one that looks like Elden Ring or something.
@@mikematei Darker grittier Zelda would be amazing, but adult & grit don't go with Nintendo... Unless you're in one of their love hotels. Sadly, they'll probably never make a more mature Zelda & I've accepted that. Twilight Princess & MM are still the grittiest of them, which is why they're still my favorite 3D Zelda's.
@@mikematei Never. Not until Nintendo gets new management like the old days, that wants to compete for the older audience. They, right now, only want our kids.... and they think those kids are basically re***s.
@@mikematei Yeah, because you aren't a kid anymore, even if you act like one. Why would Zelda suddenly become a Dark Souls game to appeal to you instead of continuing to appeal to kids? You're like the people who want Star Wars to be dark and mature now because they can't accept it's not made for them. Time to grow up and move on.
To be fair though Mike, that tar baby thing ate Riker, not Tasha Yar. But don't u think the worst TNG ep is the Host, when Crusher fell in love with a sea cucumber?😖
Mike there is a Sega Genisis game called Blades of Vengeance where you use a ball and chain. select the Male Warrior. Upgrade 2 or 3 Levels in. Ball And Chain (amature) tips: learn to block. you can cycle through weapons while blocking. the male warrior is the worst ov the options. good luck!
This was a really good direct . its ok to have a different opinion . i saw alot of things i think are nice. I am super excited for the Dragon quest 1 2 3 remakes. The new rpg Fantasian from the creator of final fantasy. Metroid prime 4. Mario + Luigi brothership. Donkey kong country hd . phantom brave . Zelda . romancing saga 2 remake .
Fantasian is actually not that new. It's been out for a bunch of years now, but it's finally coming out for a platform that is not Apple. It's the one thing that I was very happy to see is coming to other platforms! 🙂
I think it's natural for adults to desire more mature versions of their childhood favorites. I think we all have a fondness for Transformers The Movie because the TV show was quite silly, and the movie gave us a more adult tone with more death and violence and heavy metal music. I think we all thought that was cool, we were happy the movie was more mature, more serious. In the same vein I can understand wishing for a Zelda franchise that evolved into a more mature fantasy adventure game. However I think a reason for Zelda's enduring allure is how innocent and approachable it is. Worlds in Zelda are always fun, vibrant, and largely happy, not grimdark. I think the new Princess Zelda game is still staying true to the roots of the franchise. In Zelda 1 you use the raft to cross the water, you use the ladder to cross gaps, etc. In the Princess Zelda game you use stools/beds/potted plants to reach new locations. I see it as the same kind of thing. I think Zelda has always been, and always should be, more about the adventure than the combat. I mean, "Where the heck do I go and how do I get there?" was like 70% of Zelda 1. I think I'm actually looking forward to the Princess Zelda game quite a bit. I'm happy they're re-using the Links Awakening remake engine to do something new, and I think the adventure aspects could be a good time. I agree that it's probably going to be very easy though. But I don't mind a low difficulty in an adventure game. That said, I very much enjoyed you talking smack. I think you are the most cantankerous streamer on the internet, and I hope you never change.
80's & 90's clouds were the best. 2000 - 2024 clouds make me sadder than a turantula's gaping a** hole. The world totally sucks now! I try and live it up like it's a modernized late 80's & early 90's as much as i can, other wise i'll plummet into a severe state of depression if i 100% roll with the shitty times! :P
@@mikemateiI think this video reinforced Marcos point, rather than strengthening any criticism you may have based on your reactions to the direct. There are plenty of serious things to criticize, but I get the impression that you are spinning your wheels getting upset about things that you could easily ignore. In the end, to each his own, continue to yell at clouds Mike.
capcom rereleasing their 30-year-old games is a shit test to see if there’s interests to make mvc4. They did the same test for their other ips and it failed everytime lol
That's why I'm suspicious of the aftermath of the Mega Man "legacy" collections. They only made one game in 6 years that's lacking a stage and the classic suspended jump while going through a door animation. Did those collections + 11 really sell a million each or were the sales mediocre and are making the numbers up?
I don't get why people are mad about a Wii remaster. I hated the wii and refused to buy it despite the handful of good Nintendo games. And now with the remaster i can play this game finally.
@@alfasilverblade So what, theres a lot of 3DS remasters on Switch. Luigis Mansion 2 is going to be another one. The 3DS had a great library and i think it's a good idea to port the good games over cause i don't wanna use a handheld device anymore.
Holy crap, I havent seen/heard that Mousercise record since 1985 when I was a young kid. I used to play it all the time back then, and even tried to do the weird dance moves from the booklet that came with it . I had totally forgotten about it until you showed it off. It was like it unlocked hidden memories, and they all came flooding back. Wow, it was like I was remembering a past life. Thanks for that. :)
Nintendo is so fucking cringe now. It's so rough to have lived through seeing them go from the Play It Loud era to this. I tried to give the SMB movie a shot about a month ago and I had to shut it off once Peach started training Mario to use his abilities
They want to make movies instead of pay attention to the quality of their games now. Gotta stand on the red carpet with Jack Black. No time to polish games to perfection.
@@mikematei It's a shame.....and just like you're clearly demonstrating they have reverted to SUCH a kiddie image.....in the 80s and 90s it felt like Nintendo was growing up with us and the last 25 years it's just been a painful regression to where we are now. You are spot on with the baby talk during the Zelda segment Mike. Zelda from NES to Majora's Mask was so badass and those games could legitimately make the hair on your neck stand!
They don't care about adult fans. Look at Skyward Sword, that's when it got childish and never got out of it. There's nothing spooky in it whatsoever, same with botw and totk. And the games always have to have some stupid gimmick in it these days, can't just be an awesome adventure
@@Vaquix000Yeah, Mario Odyssey exposed that too. There was almost no challenge at all in the game, and then they put all the moons anywhere and everywhere
1:21:44 😂 Mike, they asked if you like Black Metal because you said you liked things from Sweden and Norway, that and Death Metal is their favorite music in those countries.
Why can’t we have a Zelda that’s has a similar tone to dark souls. The IP is in place for it and they keep blowing it. Would be an amazing game to fight helmasuar as link or Zelda in a From Software style game
But Dark souls is dark ALL the time, it gets boring. A place like the shadow temple in ocarina of time wouldn't stick out because that'd basically be the whole game in dark souls which is just bland, if an adventure has the exact same atmosphere the whole way through it doesn't feel like an adventure to me.
Personally there only were 3 things that were of any interest for me: -the very first game, Mario & Luigi Brothership. I really like these games usually, not 100% sure about this one tho but it looks alright. -the new Zelda game: I'm probably not even gonna bother with this one, but I'll say it's an interesting idea at least, especially because you play as Zelda and not Link. But it's not for me tho. Fuck off with this crafting shit or whatever, I just wanna do dungeons and fight enemies -Metroid Prime 4: This is the only thing I ACTUALLY am really interested in. One of the only reasons why I even bought the Nintendo Switch was because of Metroid Prime 4, and maybe Mario Odyssey. I'm so glad we finally get to see some actual footage, even if it's a few years too late and it's probably not even gonna come out for the Switch, but whatever its successor is. Metroid in general is probably my favourite game series ever.
Yeah I know. But if I didn’t address the Direct I would get asked about it a bunch on stream. So these big events, I like to do this and get my thoughts out of the way so I don’t get asked about it. But I’m well aware this crap is not for me.
5:16:17 absolutely is better... - Context: as any comic hero, book or movie, people wants the main character succeed their problems - Problem: when the video is just about the last success run then there is no excitement, no qiestion, no doubt, no challenge to overcome anymore - the best: instead the 10hs stream, when we watch you try and fail, the qiestion is he going to succeed this part? Ia he going to make it to the next level now? Is he going to beat this game in this stream? We watch you fail and try and whem you eventually succeed any goal in the game then we also feel a greater achievement... So yeah.. is much better watch all fuck ups than just the success run
Most people from what I saw were happy with that direct, including myself...I dunno. Just sounds like you may not have been the target audience for this. Cause I actually saw quite a few games here that I want to play. I think you were being a bit too hard on it personally with all due respect.
I am definitely not the target audience for all that crap. Other than Metroid Prime 4. Which is why I literally typed on screen that I am not the target audience. Is that how you got the idea that i am not the target audience? By me literally saying that in the video? 1:06:16
@@mikematei Half of what they showed wasn't even crap. You're over exaggerating. What exactly did you expect them to show is my question? Given your perspective, I don't think there was anything Nintendo could have shown at this direct that would have excited you at all based on your reaction to this one.
@@MetalGaiden96 As I said there were a few good looking things. Metroid 4 looks cool. The Zelda game might be okay. But the narrator doing a baby voice does not make me want to play it. (I will try it though) But yeah most of this looks like crap to me. Hobbit Room decorator. Like fuck this shit. Who decides to put that on display in a video of upcoming games
@@Crazy_Gamer_OG Didn't know questioning an opinion I don't completely agree with, and offering counterpoints was considered being mad. Guess I learned something new today.
The original Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga is a damn good handheld game, the new game looks interesting I don't mind the graphics that much. Metroid Prime is good but I'm more of a DKC fan, would be nice if Retro Studios made a new DKC returns after Metroid Prime 4.
That nintendo direct reaction was so depressing that it became so funny. I found the direct very exciting, but that's because I love anime crap. I do hope you check out the Dragon Quest games, or Dragon Warrior for you older folks. If you like final fantasy, you'll like those.
I really like this camera angle and the audio sounds reallt good too! It's crazy how you think you've heard of every turbografx game, and then Mike plays one you never heard of 😂 Personally (about the Nintendo Direct) I felt pretty underwhelmed...all the games that are upcoming are reusing models from older games and reusing engines from older games. Maybe it's presumptious, but I feel like since Iwatas passing the games are less about experimenting and innovating and more about saving money during development. They're going the Pokémkn route... something everyone has been complaining about for a good while now.
about time nerd! i was into OI lectures, Yale lessons and documentories.. got so bored waiting for you I decided to learn! yell at things for me. its cathartic to both ov us.
Tasha yar died on episode 23 of the first season. It wasn't just a few episodes in, also most of the episode was about getting the rest of the away team off of the planet.
Idk, I enjoyed the direct more than I thought I would, it was a nice treat as JRPG fan to see things like a new Mario And Luigi, Dragon Quest 3, Fantasian, and Romancing SaGa 2. I was also happy for Metroid Prime 4 and the new Mario Party. There is always going to be third party shovelware, but that isn't Nintendo's fault anyways, the only criticism I had was the DKC Returns port instead of a sequel, and I didn't care much for the Zelda game as I would have just preferred a more traditional game instead. I think its mostly just a generational thing on your part, you don't seem really interested in anything after the fourth generation, which is fine, but its a bit unfair to say it was nothing but crap while criticizing Nintendo for not being like Sony or Microsoft, despite them having a completely different demographic. I didn't watch a second of the Xbox or Sony event, but I could understand why people who did would be excited for the new Doom or Gears Of War.
Mike ... You are Fing hilarious, my bro. I have been a huge fan, friend, & supporter of yours Since like, 4ever. Lolz 😅🤘 Keepin' onn rockin' it my brah! 😎💎🤘
I'm a huge fan of Metroid so I'm very much looking forward to Prime 4. A couple of upcoming rpgs are promising, such as the (REMAKE) of DQIII and (REMASTER) of that Saga 2 thing. Having said that, the lack of creativity is very alarming in the current entertainment industry and I 100% agree current Zelda seems aimed mainly to kids. While you can argue "so was original Zelda", I think the actual truth is "it used to be for everybody" and kids weren't underestimated this much. One more thing, for anyone mad at Mike: any reasonable person should be able to tell when a streamer isn't sponsored or trying to """"build a following"""". Mike isn't careful with words because he thinks he's talking to adults. One can disagree with him or not, but at least he's being sincere. I think some people take sincerity for granted and, these days, it should be appreciated since everything has become too corporate and politically correct. P.S: A Metroid movie sounds like a fucking nightmare to me. They would 100% sanitize the hell out of it and they would get the casting wrong with some charisma vacuum actress.
I agree mike everything does suck now and im 34. We can only enjoy what we can and be nihilistically humorous to get threw what does suck lmao😂😎💯. My childhood was truly the happiest time growing up in the 90s after 1999.

I am blessed to have been raised by gen Xers. Channels like yours and cinemassacre bring me joy and free me from concerns and stress and anxiety. Keep doing content brother man i enjoy it.
I'm 35 and there's still good things being made (rarely). Kirby forgotten land was a fun game, Eiyuuden Chronicles is neat, and... yeah okay I can't really think of anything else it's pretty bad. But the fact that these are pretty recent games is a good sign. Not exactly holding my breath but I'm not of the opinion that "oh it's going to suck forever" - that's not how time works, things change.

I'm glad someone here understood what I was complaining about. That Zelda game might be fine. My issue is that the narrator of the direct sounds like he is talking to a 2 year old. And the old games like Zelda, Zelda 2, LTTP and Ocarina didn't give the impression that the franchise was for a toddler. But it seems like that is very much the direction they are going these days.

I'm looking forward to the Dragon Warrior trilogy the most
I still prefer the GBC versions.
@@Crazy_Gamer_OG How do they compare to, say, the SNES version of Dragon Quest III?
I played the original trilogy that's already available on Switch and the sprites are atrocious. Additionally, it seems like they're missing some features and animations from later updates to those games.
Yeah, I’ve only played 1 and 11, starting with 11 then going back and playing 1. Loved both and can’t wait for the remakes.
@@TheZaiusimo, for now the SNES versions are definitely the definitive ways to play the original trilogy. They actually have animation for all the monsters and the music for III is top tier. The switch ports are so bad I've actually told people not to buy those and wait for the HD2D remake comes out
mike just casually dropping that he wants to play the nes dragon quest games on stream and nothing would make me happier
using webcam as mouse pointer, never gets old
I don’t know why the “Hey Mike, I got a printer” thing made me laugh so hard 😂
You got to love how Mike goes from $hitting on this to "I'm going to buy this" at the end.
The fact that people asked Mike to react to these and he just looks at it with pure hatred is hilarious
I mean it’s honestly fascinating how shit their directs are that I don’t mind taking a look just to see what I’m not missing out on.
The entire figthing game community have been waiting for this marvel vs capcom collection
**cries in Xbox** 😭💔😭💔😭
Can't you play all those already in a million different ways?
Why? They’ve been playing that game already in fight Cade (emulation) and playing against each other in online matches already. Makes no difference
Games that were available in the past. Then delisted. And now people get to buy them again. Nintendo's favorite thing to do. Sell you a game. Take it away. Then resell it to you. And sometimes in a lesser form. Like this Donkey Kong HD "remaster"
@@mikematei If I recall, the MvC games have been extremely priced up the ass and very scarce for physical versions of the game. It used to be on the PS store and Xbox store but its been taken off the store for many years now. This makes it readily available and has dedicated online and rollback net code.
That's the saltiest reaction to the Direct I saw so far, and I love it.
Thx man i havnt laughed so hard in a while
The thing to laugh even harder at is how butthurt people get when I shit on all this modern Nintendo crap. To be fair there's a few good things in this direct. But very little.
“FUck This Game! You guys have to try it” lmao 😂
Compare that baby talk to the Japanese Famicom DISKU SYSTEME Zelda commercials with the father and daughter. Those commercials are amazing, funny, relatable, adorable, and extremely memorable. That's how it's done.
In Legendary Axe 2, the buttplug is the fastest and longest range but weakest, the sword is middle of the road with good range and damage, the axe has shortest range but destroys things really quick. The Axe devastates bosses at level 5
mike is the voice of reason and the only videogame opinion i care for! he is the best of the best and i honestly love him
Damn…not to be that guy, but that sounds a bit depressing to be honest with you.
@@metaldragmire8539 i don't see how that's depressing. It's just pessimism.
He's one of the few that's actually genuine and real. It's refreshing, Vs the countless bug eyed mouth gaping fakers hamming it up and shrieking like a bunch of childish maniacs just for clicks! :P
@@NintenPizza Yeah I hate that. Also there's so many gamers that will call a game a masterpiece even though they think it's a very flawed game. They have no idea what a masterpiece means anymore. They think if nintendo releases a zelda game it's an automatic masterpiece whether they actually really liked it or not, it's nonsense.
@@NintenPizza Ever thought about the fact that some people react that way naturally? Some people are really emotional about series they like. If you don’t get that then I don’t know what to tell you.
About the engagement farming in the beginning. I always hate people that comment under old music videos the current year like "Who else is listening to this in 2023?"
Who else is reading this in 2032?
Did someone say "Legendary Ass" on the stream at least once?
1:00 - oh, actually right in the beginning =(
Yes TWICE xD
Yep 😂
I'd play that
Watching you react to that stupid egg ghost thing with a hat in that anime game was hilarious. Just how you said 'What the fuck is that?' had me in stiches.
The legendary axe, Bonks adventure, and Keith’s courage, best TG16 games.
it also has the best version of salamander
I have been wanting sequels to F-Zero, a new 3D Donkey Kong, or a sequel to Wario World. Hell, let Waluigi World happen or something. What ever happened to 3D platformers? They hardly ever come out anymore
Mike is probably thinking after watching the direct : I'm too old for sh*t 🤦😂
Thats what I was thinking BEFORE this. Long, long before.
Mike, you did well! Both of those games are seriously tough, especially with the limited continues. We played the first game if you wanna see another guy really rage at it!
4:38:40 Mike realises was supposed to be playing Legendary Axe 1 😂
Hey Mike, what did you think about the Nintendo direct? 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
🤓
Mike Matei is the only dude that would find a reason to complain about a Marvel vs. Capcom collection 🤦♂️
Pretty sure Marvel vs Capcom was on xbla. Until they took that away and now they make people pay for the same game again.
@@mikematei yep, which means nothing to people that didn't have XBLA 👍
And it wasn't all 7 of these games either.
@@maybetoby Who the fuck cares about someone that didn't have XBLA. tho? 🧐
@@IlokanoWarrior yep, I pre-ordered a physical copy so they can't take it away again lol
@mikematei pretty much everybody that participated in #FREEMVC2 cared lol
More Legendary than the axe is the difficulty. PC Engine has amazing shmups(and bomberman games). When it comes to platformers and adventures games, they start out fun but when things get tough the crappy controls and bad hit detection become more apparent and then they are not so fun. Very similar to the Master System in that regard.
This stream was top notch, had so much fun goofin' off with ya and the chat, man. All hail the buttplug on a chain.
The Mario & Luigi game seems oddly similar to Wind Waker on a basic level. Cartoonish art style, seafaring adventures, island hopping.
Nintendo’s ability to rehash old products, strip them down, repackage, resell and charge full price for them is nothing short of masterful. In their defense, greed has pretty much always been their policy. I remember them strong-arming retailers over the price of the NES.
Oh, Mike singing voice is so lovely! Truly a golden throat of the generation.
Yes! We had the Mousercize cassette (and it came with an exercise booklet with routines you could do along with the songs), great memories! PS ever reconsider trying some C64 streams (maybe on the C64 Maxi, or even just use VICE)?
So Zelda will have a wand now.....did they forget how that went on the CD-I.
Thank you. That's been my biggest critique so far of people praising this game as being fresh and original (and even the people complaining it's woke)..... it's basically just a half-heart-ed re-imagining of that crappy _Wand of Gamelon_ game. When the guy in the video said that the new Zelda was basically a new and innovative entry, I almost laughed.
@@FreddyKruegerRealEstate Wand of Gamelon was a sidescroller like Zelda 2, this one is an overhead with a bigger emphasis on puzzle solving than action. Just because Zelda is the protagonist, doesn't make them the same.
Lol. I was actually referring to "Zelda's Adventur." it's the top-down one, and I would swear the first weapon you get was a wand. Anyway I can't consider it a fresh idea. Since it's just feels like a Zelda themed version of dragon quest builders.
at least she had a sword in hyrule warriors
💯 Agree. All Nintendo does now are remakes and remasters. They can't make anything new and exclusive to save their damn lives. Funny thing is most of their decent games are 3rd party and are available on PS5 and Xbox, it's like why tf would I play them on the Switch at that point? Smfh 🤦🏻♂️
Especially considering the Switch often has shit frame rate. Compared to ps5 and steamdeck.
To be fair, a lot of people want more remasters from Nintendo. They still won't rerelease the Zelda HD games on Switch for some reason. Why tf are they porting Luigi's Mansion 2 but not Zelda:ALBW, OoT 3D, MM 3D, Samus Returns, or 3D Land? It's a fucking insult.
Thanks for actually understanding my point about wanting more games that are NEW and exclusive. Most commenters for some reason can not understand that is what I want. Is it really that hard to understand? I want Nintendo to make new IPs and make games that don't look like ipad trash. Most of the games here look like dogshit for 2 year olds. They can shove Hobbit room simulator up their asses.
@@Crazy_Gamer_OG I wouldn't have a problem with the remasters if they were making new cool shit to go along with it. Metroid 4 might be good, but again that's Metroid. A franchise thats been around for over 30 years. When I say new I mean NEW. A new Mario, Zelda or Metroid doesn't count. I want them to come up with some new ideas that are good.
Yeah, I do agree.
13:03 LMFAO I lost it🤣
I love playing Legendary Axe 1&2, but yeah, Nintendo Direct. I'm only excited for Mario & Luigi, Zelda and Metroid Prime 4: Beyond. That's it.
The Mario and Luigi game looks poor graphically to me. I personally just don't like that art style. Maybe that Zelda game will be okay, but I hate how they have the narrator talk in a baby voice over the footage. It makes me not want to play it. Metroid Prime 4 I will play someday.
@@mikematei Alright, I did went back replayed all of the Mario & Luigi series and all of those games have beautiful graphics on the handhelds but yeah this art style made into 3D, that makes me question too? The Zelda game could be pretty good but yeah that narrator in the trailer made it worse. And Metroid Prime 4 I have already beaten the previous games except Metroid Prime: Remastered.
@@mikematei They ruined Mario & Luigi's look when they got rid of Luigi's socks.
More seriously, that franchise always looked more or less like that.
I like when you pull out the old Wishbook catalogs. I have the ‘80-‘85 era of Sears, JCPenny, Montgomery Ward ones. Sad part was I had to get bifocals in order to read them.
No need for bifocals, just do what I do: turn on another light, squint hard, and hold the catalog at arms length. No one will ever guess your age now!
4:23:42 The best hentai is the English dub of Bible Black.
If anyone doesn't know what that is, go find it. But it HAS to be the english dub. It is THE greatest piece of unintentional comedy I've ever seen. It's beyond hilarious.
Pretty much just Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom and Metroid Prime 4 for me. I am, however, pleased Marvel Vs. Capcom games are being made available to and introduced to new people.
Nintendo: releases one movie
Mike: ALL THEY DO IS MAKE MOVIES NOW
Yeah but they announced more movies that are on the way and you can just see the way its all heading if you have any foresight
@@mikematei Stop bro lol. They have only made one movie. You are reaching. Nothing wrong with making a movie to get more people into games
I love Mike's pessimism towards the new zelda XD
It might be a good game. What I was mad about was how the narrator was making it sound like a game for babies. And that's not the direction I want the Zelda franchise going in. I want it to be more like Dark Souls or Diablo. Back when I would play Zelda as a kid, I thought it was this badass world. Now it's embarrassing. When can we have one that looks like Elden Ring or something.
@@mikematei Darker grittier Zelda would be amazing, but adult & grit don't go with Nintendo... Unless you're in one of their love hotels. Sadly, they'll probably never make a more mature Zelda & I've accepted that. Twilight Princess & MM are still the grittiest of them, which is why they're still my favorite 3D Zelda's.
@@mikematei if you want a darker take on Zelda, go play Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess. For the Gamecube. Wii motion controls ALways sucked
@@mikematei Never. Not until Nintendo gets new management like the old days, that wants to compete for the older audience. They, right now, only want our kids.... and they think those kids are basically re***s.
@@mikematei Yeah, because you aren't a kid anymore, even if you act like one. Why would Zelda suddenly become a Dark Souls game to appeal to you instead of continuing to appeal to kids? You're like the people who want Star Wars to be dark and mature now because they can't accept it's not made for them. Time to grow up and move on.
Welp Mike managed to turn this Nintendo direct into a comedy show. Because he had me laughing the entire time.
To be fair though Mike, that tar baby thing ate Riker, not Tasha Yar. But don't u think the worst TNG ep is the Host, when Crusher fell in love with a sea cucumber?😖
Right, it shoots its shitty beam at her. Same difference though. She dies in 2 seconds and its the most shitty pointless death.
Mike there is a Sega Genisis game called Blades of Vengeance where you use a ball and chain.
select the Male Warrior. Upgrade 2 or 3 Levels in. Ball And Chain
(amature) tips: learn to block. you can cycle through weapons while blocking. the male warrior is the worst ov the options.
good luck!
This was a really good direct . its ok to have a different opinion . i saw alot of things i think are nice. I am super excited for the Dragon quest 1 2 3 remakes. The new rpg Fantasian from the creator of final fantasy. Metroid prime 4. Mario + Luigi brothership. Donkey kong country hd . phantom brave . Zelda . romancing saga 2 remake .
Fantasian is actually not that new. It's been out for a bunch of years now, but it's finally coming out for a platform that is not Apple. It's the one thing that I was very happy to see is coming to other platforms! 🙂
@@FreddyKruegerRealEstate oh ok thats cool. I honestly had not heard of it untill I watched the Direct.
I wish they drop this on any modern console
I think it's natural for adults to desire more mature versions of their childhood favorites. I think we all have a fondness for Transformers The Movie because the TV show was quite silly, and the movie gave us a more adult tone with more death and violence and heavy metal music. I think we all thought that was cool, we were happy the movie was more mature, more serious. In the same vein I can understand wishing for a Zelda franchise that evolved into a more mature fantasy adventure game. However I think a reason for Zelda's enduring allure is how innocent and approachable it is. Worlds in Zelda are always fun, vibrant, and largely happy, not grimdark. I think the new Princess Zelda game is still staying true to the roots of the franchise. In Zelda 1 you use the raft to cross the water, you use the ladder to cross gaps, etc. In the Princess Zelda game you use stools/beds/potted plants to reach new locations. I see it as the same kind of thing. I think Zelda has always been, and always should be, more about the adventure than the combat. I mean, "Where the heck do I go and how do I get there?" was like 70% of Zelda 1. I think I'm actually looking forward to the Princess Zelda game quite a bit. I'm happy they're re-using the Links Awakening remake engine to do something new, and I think the adventure aspects could be a good time. I agree that it's probably going to be very easy though. But I don't mind a low difficulty in an adventure game. That said, I very much enjoyed you talking smack. I think you are the most cantankerous streamer on the internet, and I hope you never change.
41:23 That was a good Kamek impression. 👏
Old man yells at clouds...
"Remember when clouds were better!"
They were!

@@NintenPizzaSounds like you and Mike haven't seen any clouds in years, living under all those rocks. This isn't Mike's secret alt account is it?
@@mikemateiI think this video reinforced Marcos point, rather than strengthening any criticism you may have based on your reactions to the direct. There are plenty of serious things to criticize, but I get the impression that you are spinning your wheels getting upset about things that you could easily ignore. In the end, to each his own, continue to yell at clouds Mike.
capcom rereleasing their 30-year-old games is a shit test to see if there’s interests to make mvc4. They did the same test for their other ips and it failed everytime lol
That's why I'm suspicious of the aftermath of the Mega Man "legacy" collections. They only made one game in 6 years that's lacking a stage and the classic suspended jump while going through a door animation. Did those collections + 11 really sell a million each or were the sales mediocre and are making the numbers up?
Bring back James and Mike Monday’s 😩😩😩 great reaction btw, we know you’re not completely serious all the time. That’s why you’re hilarious
DK Countey Returns was on the Wii ot the Wii U

@@alfasilverblade The sad thing is: it's still a port of a 2013 *3DS* game (which I liked)....that was a port of a 2010 *Wii* game. 😅
I don't get why people are mad about a Wii remaster. I hated the wii and refused to buy it despite the handful of good Nintendo games. And now with the remaster i can play this game finally.
@@Blutroth because its not a Wii remaster. Its a remaster of the 3DS version who had more bonus stages. But the 3DS version grafics where not as good.
@@alfasilverblade So what, theres a lot of 3DS remasters on Switch. Luigis Mansion 2 is going to be another one. The 3DS had a great library and i think it's a good idea to port the good games over cause i don't wanna use a handheld device anymore.
I like how he hammered Nintendo for a good chunk of the games in the Direct even though they have nothing to do with those games.
Yeah but it’s a “NINTENDO direct” its still what they are showing off for their console even if other developers made most of the games.
Still doesn't make sense to hammer Nintendo for games put out by other companies.

Holy crap, I havent seen/heard that Mousercise record since 1985 when I was a young kid. I used to play it all the time back then, and even tried to do the weird dance moves from the booklet that came with it . I had totally forgotten about it until you showed it off. It was like it unlocked hidden memories, and they all came flooding back. Wow, it was like I was remembering a past life. Thanks for that. :)
Nintendo is so fucking cringe now. It's so rough to have lived through seeing them go from the Play It Loud era to this. I tried to give the SMB movie a shot about a month ago and I had to shut it off once Peach started training Mario to use his abilities
They want to make movies instead of pay attention to the quality of their games now. Gotta stand on the red carpet with Jack Black. No time to polish games to perfection.
@@mikematei It's a shame.....and just like you're clearly demonstrating they have reverted to SUCH a kiddie image.....in the 80s and 90s it felt like Nintendo was growing up with us and the last 25 years it's just been a painful regression to where we are now. You are spot on with the baby talk during the Zelda segment Mike. Zelda from NES to Majora's Mask was so badass and those games could legitimately make the hair on your neck stand!
This Direct made me realize I'm out growing Nintendo year after year.
They don't care about adult fans. Look at Skyward Sword, that's when it got childish and never got out of it. There's nothing spooky in it whatsoever, same with botw and totk. And the games always have to have some stupid gimmick in it these days, can't just be an awesome adventure
@@Vaquix000Yeah, Mario Odyssey exposed that too. There was almost no challenge at all in the game, and then they put all the moons anywhere and everywhere
I’ve felt that way for a long, long time.
Lol Nintendo games were always childish and easy, dunno what you guys are on about
@@ChangedMyNameFinally69 Mario 3 was a lot more difficult than Odyssey. Saying that even feels like an understatement
The next Nintendo direct should have Charles Martinet (Mario) as a special guest
Remember Garfield
Indeed. James Garfield could've done a lot had his term, and life, not been cut short.
The Mario and Luigi game resembles to me Mario Luigi Super Star Saga
1:21:44 😂 Mike, they asked if you like Black Metal because you said you liked things from Sweden and Norway, that and Death Metal is their favorite music in those countries.
Why can’t we have a Zelda that’s has a similar tone to dark souls. The IP is in place for it and they keep blowing it. Would be an amazing game to fight helmasuar as link or Zelda in a From Software style game
exactly.
Nah, theres already too many Soulslike games, im tired, i want something new. Not a clone of Darksouls with Link Zelda and Ganon.
But Dark souls is dark ALL the time, it gets boring. A place like the shadow temple in ocarina of time wouldn't stick out because that'd basically be the whole game in dark souls which is just bland, if an adventure has the exact same atmosphere the whole way through it doesn't feel like an adventure to me.
Zelda is supposed to be a lighthearted adventure game, not a dark nihilistic RPG
Personally there only were 3 things that were of any interest for me:
-the very first game, Mario & Luigi Brothership. I really like these games usually, not 100% sure about this one tho but it looks alright.
-the new Zelda game: I'm probably not even gonna bother with this one, but I'll say it's an interesting idea at least, especially because you play as Zelda and not Link. But it's not for me tho. Fuck off with this crafting shit or whatever, I just wanna do dungeons and fight enemies
-Metroid Prime 4: This is the only thing I ACTUALLY am really interested in. One of the only reasons why I even bought the Nintendo Switch was because of Metroid Prime 4, and maybe Mario Odyssey. I'm so glad we finally get to see some actual footage, even if it's a few years too late and it's probably not even gonna come out for the Switch, but whatever its successor is. Metroid in general is probably my favourite game series ever.
Limited run games showcase would be more targeted to you, this showcase is more targeted to people under 25 who hasn't played most of these games
Yeah I know. But if I didn’t address the Direct I would get asked about it a bunch on stream. So these big events, I like to do this and get my thoughts out of the way so I don’t get asked about it. But I’m well aware this crap is not for me.
Ive been waiting for you to beat both of these. Legendary Axe is fun to watch.
The bird fire pattern looks like you duck under it when it makes an arch and the "butt plug" is probably a flail.
5:16:17 absolutely is better...
- Context: as any comic hero, book or movie, people wants the main character succeed their problems
- Problem: when the video is just about the last success run then there is no excitement, no qiestion, no doubt, no challenge to overcome anymore
- the best: instead the 10hs stream, when we watch you try and fail, the qiestion is he going to succeed this part? Ia he going to make it to the next level now? Is he going to beat this game in this stream? We watch you fail and try and whem you eventually succeed any goal in the game then we also feel a greater achievement...
So yeah.. is much better watch all fuck ups than just the success run
What's up with all the new Nintendo Switch games looking like mobile graphics?
A lot really do. It's like Graphics peaked with F-Zero GX
What's going on with the graphics.. the answer is fortnight cell shading.
Is that the reason? Could be. I don't mind fortnite. I just don't think that graphic style should extend to so many other games now.
one nintendo movie comes out and it changes everything
I know Super Mario Bros. (1993) was great.
What are you talking about, Nintendo has been scummy for years
Echoes of Wisdom looks like it was designed by Butters from SouthPark.

Most people from what I saw were happy with that direct, including myself...I dunno. Just sounds like you may not have been the target audience for this. Cause I actually saw quite a few games here that I want to play. I think you were being a bit too hard on it personally with all due respect.
I am definitely not the target audience for all that crap. Other than Metroid Prime 4. Which is why I literally typed on screen that I am not the target audience. Is that how you got the idea that i am not the target audience? By me literally saying that in the video? 1:06:16
@@mikematei Half of what they showed wasn't even crap. You're over exaggerating. What exactly did you expect them to show is my question?

As I said there were a few good looking things. Metroid 4 looks cool. The Zelda game might be okay. But the narrator doing a baby voice does not make me want to play it.

@@Crazy_Gamer_OG Didn't know questioning an opinion I don't completely agree with, and offering counterpoints was considered being mad. Guess I learned something new today.
Mike is right. I don't understand why they can't just make a normal Zelda game any more. .
It's always gotta have goofy gimmicks now when all zelda fans really wanted was a fun adventure like the 90's
@@Vaquix000 Amen.
@@Vaquix000umm all Zelda games have gimmicks and stand out from each other.
The original Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga is a damn good handheld game, the new game looks interesting I don't mind the graphics that much. Metroid Prime is good but I'm more of a DKC fan, would be nice if Retro Studios made a new DKC returns after Metroid Prime 4.
That nintendo direct reaction was so depressing that it became so funny. I found the direct very exciting, but that's because I love anime crap.
I do hope you check out the Dragon Quest games, or Dragon Warrior for you older folks. If you like final fantasy, you'll like those.
I really like this camera angle and the audio sounds reallt good too! It's crazy how you think you've heard of every turbografx game, and then Mike plays one you never heard of 😂
Personally (about the Nintendo Direct) I felt pretty underwhelmed...all the games that are upcoming are reusing models from older games and reusing engines from older games. Maybe it's presumptious, but I feel like since Iwatas passing the games are less about experimenting and innovating and more about saving money during development. They're going the Pokémkn route... something everyone has been complaining about for a good while now.
"The monkeys are the real boss!" lol I remember they gave you a brutal time the last playthrough. 🐒
I don't even make my own bed, let alone in a Zelda game

1:39:21 Yes Mike, Dark Souls games, or you can finally play Elden Ring where you can also use a flail.
There is a German Alice in Wonderland where they used taxidermied animals and it's super fucked.
That Zelda game looks way better than anything Fromslop has ever put out.
I tried to beat this game so much but I just couldn't get past the cliffs/waterfalls stage.
Its a tough game.

Tasha yar died on episode 23 of the first season. It wasn't just a few episodes in, also most of the episode was about getting the rest of the away team off of the planet.
Yeah basically the beginning
Idk, I enjoyed the direct more than I thought I would, it was a nice treat as JRPG fan to see things like a new Mario And Luigi, Dragon Quest 3, Fantasian, and Romancing SaGa 2. I was also happy for Metroid Prime 4 and the new Mario Party. There is always going to be third party shovelware, but that isn't Nintendo's fault anyways, the only criticism I had was the DKC Returns port instead of a sequel, and I didn't care much for the Zelda game as I would have just preferred a more traditional game instead.
I think its mostly just a generational thing on your part, you don't seem really interested in anything after the fourth generation, which is fine, but its a bit unfair to say it was nothing but crap while criticizing Nintendo for not being like Sony or Microsoft, despite them having a completely different demographic. I didn't watch a second of the Xbox or Sony event, but I could understand why people who did would be excited for the new Doom or Gears Of War.

Keepin' onn rockin' it my brah! 😎💎🤘
Wow Mike. I can’t believe you didn’t foam at the mouth and cry tears of joy when you saw the new Zelda game like almost every other channel did..
I decided to take Nintendo's cock out of my mouth.
I'm a huge fan of Metroid so I'm very much looking forward to Prime 4. A couple of upcoming rpgs are promising, such as the (REMAKE) of DQIII and (REMASTER) of that Saga 2 thing. Having said that, the lack of creativity is very alarming in the current entertainment industry and I 100% agree current Zelda seems aimed mainly to kids. While you can argue "so was original Zelda", I think the actual truth is "it used to be for everybody" and kids weren't underestimated this much.
One more thing, for anyone mad at Mike: any reasonable person should be able to tell when a streamer isn't sponsored or trying to """"build a following"""". Mike isn't careful with words because he thinks he's talking to adults. One can disagree with him or not, but at least he's being sincere. I think some people take sincerity for granted and, these days, it should be appreciated since everything has become too corporate and politically correct.
P.S: A Metroid movie sounds like a fucking nightmare to me. They would 100% sanitize the hell out of it and they would get the casting wrong with some charisma vacuum actress.
This dude complains about everything. I thought the Direct was pretty good.
Nah most of this was shit
Modern gamer tastes lol
Best Direct we've had in a while
You are right. I complain when I think games are shit. And most of these are with a few exceptions.
Honestly I only seem to care about MP4 too. Everything else I didn't really have an interest in.
I agree mike everything does suck now and im 34. We can only enjoy what we can and be nihilistically humorous to get threw what does suck lmao😂😎💯. My childhood was truly the happiest time growing up in the 90s after 1999. To about 06 everything started to go down hill now its just shit show extravaganza on the daily nothing baffels me anymore nothing can top how shit things are except the apocalypse 😂😂😂. I am blessed to have been raised by gen Xers. Channels like yours and cinemassacre bring me joy and free me from concerns and stress and anxiety. Keep doing content brother man i enjoy it.
I'm 35 and there's still good things being made (rarely). Kirby forgotten land was a fun game, Eiyuuden Chronicles is neat, and... yeah okay I can't really think of anything else it's pretty bad. But the fact that these are pretty recent games is a good sign. Not exactly holding my breath but I'm not of the opinion that "oh it's going to suck forever" - that's not how time works, things change.
