I'm stoked for the new Zelda. I understand some people may be apprehensive about the combat, but I really don't see a world where Nintendo just swaps the characters around. They're obviously going to try something different, and I think it looks fun. We'll see!
Agreed! If we’re gonna play as a different character, I think it would be a bit silly to have it play exactly the same. Making it more puzzle-focused is a cool direction!
Yeah unfortunately Zelda fanbase is one of the worst fanbase ever. Nintendo is pushing boundaries in terms of what you can do in video games, and putting game mechanics and innovations 10 year ahead of its time, but all core Zelda fans want ocarina of time with better graphics.

Yeah, I can't be disappointed by what they showed for Echos of Wisdom. Zelda has possessed the Triforce of Wisdom in previous games. It makes sense that she's not going to be all about direct combat. Relying on her/the player's brainpower makes plenty of sense, and it appears there will still be combat... just not in the same way as when you're Link. I commend Nintendo for taking a game in a new direction and being true to the character. Simply replacing Link with Zelda, but having her do the exact same things wouldn't be true to the character nor would it be fun for the audience beyond the initial novelty. I'm hoping she/we get to play an instrument as her; perhaps the OOT or Sheik's harp.
It looks fun. Frankly it s got a nod to building syst from totk. Cause frankly it was more a wisdom thing. The art choice is great. They want to go slowly to see how people would react. It s also that people were expecting zelda to be playable in totk.
That's nothing compared to Max's reaction. The poor guy couldn't focus on the rest of the direct after that but continue talking about MvC collection even during the Zelda EoW reveal LOL.
22:03 Denpamen was a weird series on the 3DS eShop where the gimmick was that you take your 3DS to different places then use the camera to look for and capture the characters that you use in your party in the RPG. The game would use nearby WiFi networks your 3DS could see (you didn’t have to connect to them) to generate what elements and abilities the Denpamen had. Dunno how this Switch version works and if you still need to take your Switch around so it can detect different WiFi networks though, or if they just take that part out.
Direct full of impossible announcements: MVC collection after that series has been in legal limbo, Miles Edgeworth Investigations 2 finally getting localized, online 4 Swords, Fantasian getting freed from Apple Arcade, and especially a new mainline Zelda game with Zelda as the protagonist. Bravo Nintendo fr
“It’s gotta be co-op, right?” No. This series works solely as a single player story game where you control both Mario & Luigi. Having co-op would change the experience and make it easier.
I’m actually very excited for the Lego Horizon game, and love the “everything is Lego” art style. So if nobody wants that code when it shows up me and the kids would be happy to do some play testing for y’all 😂.
@19:21 After the Game Boy Color ports of the first three Dragon Quest games, they came out on mobile devices many years later. The mobile ports were also released on Switch.
Fantastic Direct. Metroid Prime 4 finally being shown would have been enough for me, but the new Mario & Luigi, and Zelda game also have me really excited. It's also great that Ace Attorney Investigations 2 is finally getting localized. Dragon Quest HD-2D trilogy and Mio also look really cool. It's been a long time since I've been this happy with a Nintendo Direct.
They don't tell us who's developing their games because they find that it distracts from the game itself. Kit and Krysta covered this, and Nintendo's mentality is basically, "Why do you need to know now? You're going to find out when you play the game and read the credits."
so much of this presentation reminds me of the old wdw tour video loops that played in the hotels. the voice over the snaps. the tone. they really want to be Disney.
How can a group of people that talks about games all day know literally nothing about Nintendo franchises and their references to their older games. Like wth
Nintendo: Fine, we'll let you play as Zelda in a Zelda game. Stop asking for it now. Fans: Can she fight? Nintendo: Don't be ridiculous. No. Zelda's a girl. Girls don't fight. She fights by decorating. Fans: 😮
@@thatoneguy1821It's not about gender norms. Link just happens to be the fighting character. Because if Zelda fights, then what is the point of Link? Nintendo already mentioned this before in an interview. That's why Zelda can never have bloodlust, yes it's too much to ask. There's hundreds of bloodlusted female characters in other games, play them.
Metroid Prime 4 looks so disappointing to me. When I saw Prime Remaster I thought "wow if they are making prime remaster this good, I cannot imagine how prime 4 will be". Looks like it is same. Space pirate animations looks same. Shooting also seems same. This game should've come 4 years ago really. For now I won't think about this game and hope a better version when next system arrive.
Lol there are always ijits like you when they show a first teaser trailer of any game. They never give the hook out right away. You're gonna buy it. And your squirrel brain will forget you ever wrote this comment.
Switch games are so ugly at this point. Idgaf about that “graphics don’t matter” nonsense they need new hardware. Can’t charge full price for PS2 looking games.
I can agree with your point that they need new hardware. Thankfully, it's coming. Way too late IMO. But suggesting any of these Nintendo games look like PS2 games is an absurdity, and does a disservice to your general point, which is reasonable.

good to see an appropriate reaction at 26:07 !

Watching this much later.
Kelsey watches new Zelda : "How do you follow that up?"
Metroid Prime 4. That's how.

This was a 10/10 presentation for me, having a PS5 and Steamdeck usually means I barely touch my switch but this makes me hyped to pick it up!
Seeing “New Metroid and Zelda” gave me whiplash
I love hearing Ben's hype for MvC2
I’m actually very excited for the Lego Horizon game, and love the “everything is Lego” art style. So if nobody wants that code when it shows up me and the kids would be happy to do some play testing for y’all 😂.

Please buy Fantasian
Mistwalker needs the support. I would love for them to make a The Last Story remaster
Dragon Quest 3 is one of my favorite games. And it holds up very well. So this will be perfect
they should have called it Donkey Kong Country re-returns lol
Fantastic Direct. Metroid Prime 4 finally being shown would have been enough for me, but the new Mario & Luigi, and Zelda game also have me really excited.

The new Zelda definitely has bloodlust. The first bit of combat they showed us was her beating a Moblin to death with a rock lol
I think Ben could save a lot of money by paying JeffM by the word😂.
Where my cornwolfs at!?? Wooo wooo! Howling and popping!
“Not necessary but sure!” is the best take on Prime 4’s title
26:42 Ben, your hype is so much fun, lol, you’re never like this!
Cornwolf
so much of this presentation reminds me of the old wdw tour video loops that played in the hotels. the voice over the snaps. the tone. they really want to be Disney.
There’s a video which points out the similarities to the a link to the past map, so it pretty much is the same map, just tweaked
I wonder how many games will get the review of 'this will be great on switch 2'
I’ll root for Ben’s EVO entry
Leo still doesn’t believe Zelda is playable.
Is it weird that by far the best looking thing there is Mio Memories in Orbit?
Not at all if you don’t largely care about Nintendo games like me
Yes that is very weird.
That is definitely insane, but having garbage tastes is not a crime.
@@PhotonSieve We don’t all enjoy games designed for kids, sorry
@@PhotonSieve Why is being interested in a good looking metroidvania having garbage taste?
Why does people keep thinking Mario & Luigi Brothership is a co-op game?
Nice reactions.
Can going to Evo be a Patreon goal pleaseeeeee, MinnMax training arc, I would double my patreon pledge!

Alpha dream made the new Mario Luigi Nintendo did not buy the company. They hired the alpha dream company.
Zelda looks so BotW. I bet we see some wild ideas
Zelda literally makes the bed, that's her main thing 🤣
Pig guy!?
Welcome home....hobbit
Nintendo: Fine, we'll let you play as Zelda in a Zelda game. Stop asking for it now.
Fans: Can she fight?
Nintendo: Don't be ridiculous. No. Zelda's a girl. Girls don't fight. She fights by decorating.

You just wanted a character swap for Link then? The puzzle aspect of this game looks incredible.
@dcsoda1 I think it looks okay. Just making a joke 😂
@@tososhin I get it though it’s definitely going to be something people complain about. Though she did hurl rocks at enemies so there’s that haha.
@@thatoneguy1821If that's what you want just go mod a preexisting game. It makes absolutely zero sense for them to play the same.

Can't please everyone I guess.
Im guessing it's cross gen because technically they did originally announced it as a Switch game
Lol there are always ijits like you when they show a first teaser trailer of any game. They never give the hook out right away.
You're gonna buy it. And your squirrel brain will forget you ever wrote this comment.
What's disappointing is yourself
Switch games are so ugly at this point. Idgaf about that “graphics don’t matter” nonsense they need new hardware. Can’t charge full price for PS2 looking games.
Bro saw Metroid Prime 4 and said "Yea this is Ps2 graphics"
Lmao try harder dude this is weak.
Go look at some PS2 games ffs...
I can agree with your point that they need new hardware. Thankfully, it's coming. Way too late IMO. But suggesting any of these Nintendo games look like PS2 games is an absurdity, and does a disservice to your general point, which is reasonable.
You low-key devalued the PS2. According to what I've been seeing, the switches graphics looks better than both PS5 and XBOX series.
