I honestly thought that this was a trailer where they introduce cross-over characters for Mario Kart 8. Still think it would be cool to have Captain Falcon, Kirby, or Sonic in a future Mario Kart game.
Nintendo Direct (December 18, 2013) 0:23 - Hyrule Warriors 2:33 - Kirby Triple Deluxe 5:40 - Yoshi's New Island 7:26 - Chiba-Robo!

Is it just me, or does anyone else think the environmental lighting in Mario Kart 8 look fantastic? I'm so happy to finally be getting HD Nintendo tittles.
NINTENDO YOU TROLL, First you tease Kirby Air Ride sequel, THEN you tease Kirby in Mario Kart 8, BUT ALL IT BUILT UP TO WAS FRICKING ROSALINA in SSB4 GG guys you WINtendo
Not sure why some people are getting mad about Hyrule Warriors. Iwata just said that it's not the next installment in the series, but a spinoff. It's obvious they are working on a the next installment, they just haven't it showed it off yet. I'm happy with what I can get. The game looks interesting, hoping it's some sort of co-op play or something.
That new Zelda game for Wii U looked incredible... Mario Kart 8 and Smash Bros. trailers were awesome too. I love Nintendo, haters gonna hate. They are just missing out ^_^
Nintendo is the only one of the "big 3" who cares about giving their customers actual value for their money!!! Free DLC, Free 24 hour Trials, and games that don't require microtransactions! These is the kind of things that keep me supporting Nintendo!!!
Do some research before making comments. What about Sony? You get Free DLC(LBP,Soul sacrifice), Free game trials, Free to play games and the fantastic value for money PS Plus. Every month you get games for your PS3, PS Vita & PS4 to download. These is the kind of things that keep me supporting Sony.
I haven't smiled this much at a Nintendo Direct in a long while. Spring of 2014, heck, 2014 itself, is going to be quite a fantastic year to be a Nintendo gamer.^_^
Hey, Nintendo, what are the chances that we'll see a third Luigi's Mansion on Wii U? Come on, Luigi's Mansion with HD graphics and interactive gameplay using the GamePad? It sounds perfect!
HiIm Bob **personal preference** There's only been two Luigi's Mansion games, and they can greatly expand on that with Wii U. And remember, this is my personal opinion, but I believe that it's time to see a new Mario game. Every Mario platforming game since 2007 has been a sequel (with the exception of 3D Land).
Sir you have a good point but their has only been one Super Mario Sunshine game, and I would rather have a new Super Mario Sunshine game than a new Luigi's Mansion game, and that my good sir is my own personal preference.
One thing I do admire in particular about Mr. Iwata and Mr. Fils-Aime giving the Nintendo Direct presentations themselves is that it shows that these company presidents are actually up and in the know about their own products and aren't afraid to stand behind their offering themselves. Not a common trait among company presidents much at all these days.
And am I the only one who gets hypnotized by Reggie's hand gestures during his many presentations? They're just so...presentationalistic. (Yeah, I just invented that.)
This was an amazing Nintendo Direct! I was smiling the whole way through getting even more excited about finally owning a Wii U this Christmas and discovering the awesome surprises that Nintendo's next gen system had in store. Good show! Also I'm glad to see Chibi Robo finally making a come back.
Nintendo is one of those few companies that has a heart, you can sense that warmth every time you see a video/product or play one of their games specially the old ones. Happy Holidays Nintendo!!!
I thought Kirby was going to be in the next Mario Kart when I saw him crash through there xD Just Rosalina yelling at us that she's in the next Smash Bros :D
The Rosalina reveal was a total troll from Sakurai. First he tells you it's Kirby Air Rider, then hey, Mario Kart. Then out of nowhere, bam, new character. Well done Sakurai, well done.
A new Yoshi! I'd love a remake or Yoshi Story 64. That Robo game actually looks like a LOT of fun, and of course, I'm getting that Link/Dynasty Warriors hybrid game, hands down.
BoyScouts1910 True, but overall new IP's are not a big focus with Nintendo right now. Heck, that new Miyamoto game might be an eShop game or something like Wii Music.
I'm still kinda mad Luigi didn't save Daisy in New Super Luigi U. Daisy needs to be in another Main Mario game. Super Luigi Land or New Super Mario Land, please? Nintendo?
KirbyAirRide Squeal?!? NintendoAllStarRacing?!?!?!? Oh, SuperSmashBros... Still pretty dang awesome. Kinda got my hopes up for AirRide, But still really really GLaD to see a SmashBros. update.
YOOOOOOOOOO! MAJOR tease Nintendo!! I done thought Kirby was gonna be in MK8, a Kirby Airride 2 or SSB was gonna have like a Kart mode! But it was Rosalina was added. Which is cool! But GAAAAAH I almost had a gamer-gasm! No KIDDING. I was almost CRYING tears of joy!!!!!
Nintendo you are the best gaming company in the world but there is a lot of people that still don't know what the WIIU is, you promotional team needs to do a lot of work thanks for making the best quality games without drugs and human killing thank you nintendo you are the best
NINTENDO Why you be teasing me about Kirby's Air Ride?!?! I've wanted Air Ride 2 for YEARRSS Like, yeah, Rosalina is cool and all, I guess, but AIR RIDE My favorite CHILDHOOD GAME My favorite franchise of yours is Pokemon, but Air Ride was some of the best times of my LIFE, and all I've ever wanted to do was play a new City Trial map online. I will pay full retail price for even a REMAKE of that game... it was so amazing, simple, fun, enjoyable, creative, and challenging. PLEASE make Air Ride 2.
First they reveal Hyrule Warriors. Then they announce free Celebis'. Then they announce Rosalina and that Toon Link is returning in Smash. Then they show us lots of gameplay from MKWiiU. Man... 2014 is going to be good!
You teased me with that Kirby Air Ride theme, Sakurai. I was expecting a Kirby Air Ride HD announcement, and then a "Kirby in MK8" after seeing Mario and DK
This was a great lineup of stuff. The Zelda Dynasty Warriors game looks Amazing!! Nes Remix I'm downloaded in a second and will buy Dr.Luigi for sure. Can't wait for Mario Kart 8 and Smash Bros. Oh and Nintendo just buy Sega already!! Its clearly the right move to make.
Nintendo is so awesome. They release THREE awesome Zelda games to keep fans happy while waiting for the core Zelda game. They give FREE DLC! Their demos are free and are side stories unavailable in the full game. Just awesome!
Rosalina looks like she's gonna be pretty boss if you master her Pikmin/Olimar/Ice Climbers-like moveset. I'm pretty stoked on her.
So... did anyone else think Kirby was in Mario Kart 8 for a second?
I did.
To be honest I did :P i would hacve been SO excited
I honestly thought that this was a trailer where they introduce cross-over characters for Mario Kart 8. Still think it would be cool to have Captain Falcon, Kirby, or Sonic in a future Mario Kart game.

33:10 hey dats me
The most misdirecting character reveal yet... but that's why I loved it.
*****
Then we got an actual Mario Kart 8 trailer with Rosalina in it.
A total CGI scene just for a character ...
Nintendo, I will give you my own heart. Bless Nintendo forever!
Reggie's Mii's body wasn't ready.
That new Zelda game for Wii U looked incredible... Mario Kart 8 and Smash Bros. trailers were awesome too. I love Nintendo, haters gonna hate. They are just missing out ^_^
Aged very very well
Nintendo is the only one of the "big 3" who cares about giving their customers actual value for their money!!! Free DLC, Free 24 hour Trials, and games that don't require microtransactions! These is the kind of things that keep me supporting Nintendo!!!
Bravely Default has microtransactions, just sayin'
Do some research before making comments. What about Sony? You get Free DLC(LBP,Soul sacrifice), Free game trials, Free to play games and the fantastic value for money PS Plus. Every month you get games for your PS3, PS Vita & PS4 to download. These is the kind of things that keep me supporting Sony.
TheAndredal Bravely Default is a Square-Enix game. . . just saying.
Ben Darker You are correct as long as you pay for PlayStation Plus, which means that those games are not "free"!
Terminator Juice the Nintendo profile/account isn't "free" either btw
Reggie is the only guy who can beat himself in an arm wrestle
its beacause He´s body is ready
The star warrior and the star sprite dancing around on rainbow road...Awesome
I haven't smiled this much at a Nintendo Direct in a long while.
Spring of 2014, heck, 2014 itself, is going to be quite a fantastic year to be a Nintendo gamer.^_^
Kirby and a Luma on the screen at the same time..........cuteness overload!! I can't wait to play as Rosalina in Smash bros. XD
then put Pikachu in ther :3
YES! I love to play as Pikachu!
It's strange to see so much criticism in the comment section. I felt all of these announcements were very exciting and fun. Good job Nintendo!
19:42 notice the stress on the word "link", and notice the symbol on Sonic's track. Coincidence?
This was like a mini E3...
2013: Year of Nintendoom'd articles
2014: Year of Nintendominance articles
Hyrule warriors, so much FREAKING AWESOME!!!!!!!!
Hyrule Warriors looks stunning!
Yeah...if you could not immediately kill me at the first trailer, that'd be great. I need to survive the whole direct.
One must always have emergency support on standby when Nintendo does a Direct.
Hey, Nintendo, what are the chances that we'll see a third Luigi's Mansion on Wii U? Come on, Luigi's Mansion with HD graphics and interactive gameplay using the GamePad? It sounds perfect!
Wouldn't you rather have Super Mario Sunshine 2?
HiIm Bob Honestly, no. I'd rather have the next 3D Mario game be something completely new.
So you want a brand new Mario game but the same Luigi game?
HiIm Bob **personal preference** There's only been two Luigi's Mansion games, and they can greatly expand on that with Wii U. And remember, this is my personal opinion, but I believe that it's time to see a new Mario game. Every Mario platforming game since 2007 has been a sequel (with the exception of 3D Land).
Sir you have a good point but their has only been one Super Mario Sunshine game, and I would rather have a new Super Mario Sunshine game than a new Luigi's Mansion game, and that my good sir is my own personal preference.
I guess Reggie's body WAS ready at the end.
It's awesome that Rosalina's in the next smash, but goddamit they got my hopes up for an air ride sequel
Iwata will be missed.
Agreed. Just came back to watch some older Directs with Iwata actually. 😕
***** That is what I was doing.
Spencer Calderon Well, yeah. Most of them contains some great and memorable scenes and such with Iwata. Rest in peace really.
Almost everyone thought *Kirby* was going to be in Mario Kart 8.
Well played, Nintendo :P
Yep... they got me too :)
One thing I do admire in particular about Mr. Iwata and Mr. Fils-Aime giving the Nintendo Direct presentations themselves is that it shows that these company presidents are actually up and in the know about their own products and aren't afraid to stand behind their offering themselves. Not a common trait among company presidents much at all these days.

Man, nobody does DLC (or ensures quality DLC from other companies) like Nintendo!
Rest in Peace Iwata. I'll miss you.
bro, I can't believe it's been 8 years already
@@emerylsg it is wild, man
Dr Luigi
The new friendship killer?
27:42 A SEQUEL TO KIRBY'S AIR RIDE?!
27:52 ON RAINBOW ROAD?!
28:57 Nope, just more Smash Bros.
I'm sure if I'm disappointed or not.
Mario Sunshine Airport!!
I have a feeling that all of these Rosalina cameos are all leading up to something (Super Mario Galaxy 3)
This was an amazing Nintendo Direct! I was smiling the whole way through getting even more excited about finally owning a Wii U this Christmas and discovering the awesome surprises that Nintendo's next gen system had in store. Good show! Also I'm glad to see Chibi Robo finally making a come back.
*Kirby shows up on Mario Kart course.
Rosalina is a playable character in the new Smash Bros.!
Me: WTF!?!
Nintendo you have truly outdone yourself. EVERYTHING LOOKS SO AMAZING!
Seeing that Rosalina reveal trailer, I thought maybe Kirby was a special guest for Mario Kart 8!
Nintendo is one of those few companies that has a heart, you can sense that warmth every time you see a video/product or play one of their games specially the old ones.
Happy Holidays Nintendo!!!
The Legend of Zelda: Hyrule Warriors only for Wii U... I'm sold-- DIRECTLY!
I thought Kirby was going to be in the next Mario Kart when I saw him crash through there xD
Just Rosalina yelling at us that she's in the next Smash Bros :D
Plz put Kirby in a Mario Kart game Dx
***** But then It wouldn't be MARIO kart. Mario characters only man. UNLESS they make it nintendo kart. Which is unlikely
It's only one character though dude. Besides, it's not like it's the end of nintendo as we know it just because they put Kirby in mario kart.
Nintendo is simply the best game company nowadays!!!!!
nuh uh
CHIBI-ROBO! YESSS!
“The name, Hyrule Warriors is not final”
See you on August 14, 2014.
To this day it’s still call Hyrule Warriors 😭
@@Pwilliams4000 Marketing must've been livid over it not having "Zelda" in the title so they didn't wanna commit lmao
27:37 I thought there was a new Kirby Air Ride coming out... I was so happy D:
So do I! I'm very sad there's no new Kirby Air Ride eventually...
Yeah there needs to be one soon, i still love and play that game for my gamecube. Kirby Air Ride U, MAKE IT HAPPEN NINTENDO!
Is it just me or does Iwata's English sound like it's gotten better as he's done these Direct videos?
The Rosalina reveal was a total troll from Sakurai.
First he tells you it's Kirby Air Rider, then hey, Mario Kart. Then out of nowhere, bam, new character. Well done Sakurai, well done.
7:26 Me:What is it Star Fox F-Zero?!?!
Iwata:Chibi Robo
Me:*facepalm*
ObnoxiousRaccoon "...from the Gamecube era..."
Zelda Zone? Sounds like a dream come true!
I'm most excited for Chibi-Robo. I can't wait!!!
Dialga's STRONGEST Dragon attack in history (Roar of Time) looks cool! And a free Celebi?! I CAN'T WAIT FOR POKEMON BANK! AHHH! :D
Nintendo direct's are my favorite time of the month.
A new Yoshi! I'd love a remake or Yoshi Story 64. That Robo game actually looks like a LOT of fun, and of course, I'm getting that Link/Dynasty Warriors hybrid game, hands down.
I miss him. R.I.P Iwata
Wii U just got twenty times better.
Rosalina must have saved Nintendo or something cause she has been getting WAY more respect than Daisy.
Tylerburrito
I agree that she doesn't have a personality, which is why if Nintendo puts her in a real game they can develop that.
Tylerburrito Daisy's first appearance was in Super Mario Land (1989), where she was an important character in the story of that game!
As soon as Iwata mentioned Gamecube I was like STARFOX? F-Zero? Is that you? Then silly Chibi Robo...
I must say, this was a pretty darn good Nintendo Direct especially the last part. Happy Holidays to everyone and Nintendo :)
How about a new IP, guys? I want to see something new from your beautiful minds!
earlier this year nintendo said that myamoto was working on a new ip
BoyScouts1910 True, but overall new IP's are not a big focus with Nintendo right now. Heck, that new Miyamoto game might be an eShop game or something like Wii Music.
You called it, Splatoon
Wow, Reggie's office was ready!... for Christmas.
The first trailer already had me hooked into this Direct. :D
I'm still kinda mad Luigi didn't save Daisy in New Super Luigi U. Daisy needs to be in another Main Mario game. Super Luigi Land or New Super Mario Land, please? Nintendo?
You will wait for a long time
I was definitely thinking they were bringing other characters to Mario kart, but I'm glad to see Rosalie in smash!
KirbyAirRide Squeal?!?
NintendoAllStarRacing?!?!?!?
Oh, SuperSmashBros... Still pretty dang awesome. Kinda got my hopes up for AirRide, But still really really GLaD to see a SmashBros. update.
Exactly what I'm talking about when I say Nintendo dominates every time.
YOOOOOOOOOO! MAJOR tease Nintendo!! I done thought Kirby was gonna be in MK8, a Kirby Airride 2 or SSB was gonna have like a Kart mode! But it was Rosalina was added. Which is cool! But GAAAAAH I almost had a gamer-gasm! No KIDDING. I was almost CRYING tears of joy!!!!!
Nintendo you are the best gaming company in the world
but there is a lot of people that still don't know what the WIIU is, you promotional team needs to do a lot of work
thanks for making the best quality games without drugs and human killing thank you nintendo you are the best
A minute of silence for the millions of Goombas killed from the feet, turtle shell and of course fireball hands of Mario.
Eliot Taylor Forgot kitty claws.
Or did I...
Yeh, I did. :(
Amen
I thought the Rosalina in SSB was actually a Kirby introduction as a character into Mario Kart 8
You've just got TROLLED by Nintendo!!! lol xD
Nostalgia all around. Thank you Nintendo!
I thought that Kirby was joining Mario Kart 8. Which got me thinking... wouldn't it be cool if there was a Super Smash Bros Kart?! ... No? Okay...
At the end where Reggie arm wrestles the mii, I was thinking "Yes...his body is ready..."
Kirby and Luma: Bros for life.
I gotta say, never been a fan of the Dynasty Warriors series...BUT I WILL BE NOW!
way to finish strong nintendo
Okay, but what about Flipnote 3D?
Seriously. This is getting annoying.
Growing up in the 90s... it's a trip to see Sonic and Yoshi together let-alone Sonic going through Yoshi's world... lol.
This was one of the best Nintendo Direct!
19:50 TRIFORCE!! :D imma Zelda fan hehe!
When I saw the trailer for Smash Bros., I thought we were getting a new Kirby's Air Ride game!
Why am I watching this in 2018? Also, rest in peace Iwata.
Man, Iwata's pronunciation is improving...
Everything in the Direct is lookin' good, as usual. XD
oh man, I just finished watching and i think its about time i get a Wii U
NINTENDO
Why you be teasing me about Kirby's Air Ride?!?! I've wanted Air Ride 2 for YEARRSS
Like, yeah, Rosalina is cool and all, I guess, but AIR RIDE
My favorite CHILDHOOD GAME
My favorite franchise of yours is Pokemon, but Air Ride was some of the best times of my LIFE, and all I've ever wanted to do was play a new City Trial map online. I will pay full retail price for even a REMAKE of that game... it was so amazing, simple, fun, enjoyable, creative, and challenging. PLEASE make Air Ride 2.
Mario kart 8 coming out on May 2014
The only December Nintendo Direct for now
Who else thought they were going to confirm Kirby for Mario Kart 8? Lol #NintendoDirect
First they reveal Hyrule Warriors. Then they announce free Celebis'. Then they announce Rosalina and that Toon Link is returning in Smash. Then they show us lots of gameplay from MKWiiU. Man... 2014 is going to be good!
Nintendo one question why are you so awesome
Give me Sheik and Ninja Impa from Zelda 64 as playable characters and I'm sold on Hyrule Warriors FOOS!
Well, sheik and Zelda have been a package deal since melee however, I doubt they'll add Impa
When you see the January direct and then this one, you can notice how iwata is much more exiting in this one.
Hyrule warriors look amazing!!!!
Best nintendo direct in a while.
Thanks Nintendo, I'm going to be broke for all of 2014 now.
The second sonic lost world one is Zelda. Notive the triforce at 19:45
...okay whoah that's a really clever sneak-in
I don't see it...
And the emphasis on "LINK"
I think I could LINK that connection on my ᶦᵗ'ˢ ᶻᵉᶫᵈᵃ own.
You teased me with that Kirby Air Ride theme, Sakurai.
I was expecting a Kirby Air Ride HD announcement, and then a "Kirby in MK8" after seeing Mario and DK
Okay, so Hyrule Warriors looks really freaking awesome...
This was a great lineup of stuff. The Zelda Dynasty Warriors game looks Amazing!! Nes Remix I'm downloaded in a second and will buy Dr.Luigi for sure. Can't wait for Mario Kart 8 and Smash Bros.
Oh and Nintendo just buy Sega already!! Its clearly the right move to make.
and buy Megaman too!
Wouldn't it be awesome if Hyrule Warriors had alt. costumes of all the different art styles from all the different games?
no
Everytime Iwata says "directly" in the beginning, I always follows his signature hand gesture
Nintendo is so awesome. They release THREE awesome Zelda games to keep fans happy while waiting for the core Zelda game. They give FREE DLC! Their demos are free and are side stories unavailable in the full game. Just awesome!
