Sylux was teased as the next villain in the secret endings of Metroid Prime 3 (in 2007!) and the 3DS game Metroid Prime Federation Force, which shows him finding the metroids. Also, the Prime series takes place before Metroid 2, where the metroids were wiped out.
The fact that AlphaDream went bankrupt should have tipped them off that Nintendo didn’t own them. You can’t declare bankruptcy on only one part of a company. Bankruptcy is something that happens to an entire company.
Wow, Jacob’s take on Mario and Luigi games is so off the mark! I’m very surprised at how dismissive he is. I personally think Brothership is the first glimpse at what a “next gen” Mario game could look like with those animations.
Also his take on Saw. I guess he's not into horror movies? Despite some of his video topics on his channel I figured horror movies would be up his alley and easy peasy.
@@burnout713woukd genuinely love to hear where I say or even imply this! In the Mario section I literally say I had to get over myself and recognize that it looked big and legit!
@@JacobGeller Well it's a recurring theme and not exclusive to Mario and Luigi. But in this video alone you called Fantasian, which Hanson (and plenty of other people including me, by the way) is excited about "very boring" multiple times and extrapolated that to all RPGs with random encounters comparing them to "getting kicked in the shins." Until Zelda you said this showcase was a "2/10" and "one of the worst" you'd ever seen. I don't know how else to read that besides "this showcase doesn't have things I like, therefore it is bad."
It was fun to hear you talk about I Am Your Beast, I find Strange Scaffold are constantly putting out some of the most unique and interesting experiences. Would love to hear you interview Xalavier *nudge nudge* Great show, MinnMax chemistry is off the charts at the moment!
Shocked to hear Jacob wasn't feeling the direct at first. I thought it was almost wall to wall great stuff and honestly I'd easily put it above the xbox show for this year.
I think it comes down to what types of games you play. Personally the Nintendo Direct was underwhelming but I was very interested in most of the games in the Xbox showcase. Glad you've got some games to look forward to though!
Context is key I think, I didn't think anything shown at the State of Play was in any way terrible (even Concord) but because they've been so silent on their first party output it felt disappointing. I thought the Nintendo Direct was a banger when you consider Nintendo have a new console release to prepare for and could've easily sunset the Switch by just porting a load of GameCube and Wii games. But they found the time to make a new Mario+Luigi, Mario Party and Zelda as well.
I'm not shocked at all. I think I like the guy overall but every once in a while, he comes in with the sh***est takes I've ever heard. This is one of them. It's like as soon as he hears a bunch of people like something, he has to take the opposite stance because he thinks that makes him cool or something.
I am obsessed with Ben consistently saying x franchise is y cohort's favourite. Following Jacob and El Paso, I'm excited for Leo to set the record straight about Sniper Elite.
Honestly other than Eiyuden Chronicle I can't think off the top of my head of any non-Square Enix game to use the artstyle. Octopath Traveller was the first game to use the term and Triangle Strategy, Star Ocean, Live A Live were all their games
Pokémon treats “breeders” much more like Janet describes them. They’re basically just caretakers and often have the “farmer” aesthetic. Brock was never talking about making them breed but rather just wanting to take care of them.
I really appreciate Jacob bringing the two greatest people in NC history to the forefront: Fart Girl and Shart Girl. And Fart Girl is from Asheville of all places!
Re: DQ3, the characters and events of that game are the distant historical backstory for DQ1 and 2. You are doing the things in that game that became legends later in time. So my hope is they are reworking those games to do some Mass Effect style canon changes where the things you do in DQ3 will be remembered and affect some things in the "later" games. Like collecting your endgame gear (of the lead hero) from DQ3 is central to the entire progression for DQ1, so that would be a clear place to introduce choice.
the mario and luigi series has always been pretty ambitious in terms of portable games (and honestly just all mario games), if that's what's keeping people from checking them out then that's a shame. some pretty cool swings with theming, characters, and pushing some typical RPG/adventure genre boundaries
@@burnout713 to be completely fair, the marketing never really did those games justice and Nintendo has an ocean of spinoff games with niche appeal and smaller scopes, so I'm not really shocked someone might draw that conclusion. my intent is not to scold or call out any cohorts lol, just to vouch for one of my favorite series👍
My friend had the Tiny Toon Adventures Wacky Sports Challenge SNES game and we loved it lol. Haven't played it since the 90s so will let nostalgia guide me
Utterly stunned and a wee bit sad that nobody had heard of the Denpa Men series before. There’s like 3 of them on 3DS. AR-fuelled Nintendo published JRPGs. I made sure to cop them up before that eShop closed. Of course I haven’t played any of them, but still.
Notes for DQ3: You could already pick between Female and Male Hero. In orignal DQ3 you could pick gender for each party member (You create and name them), I dont see why that wouldn't be the case now. This remake is coming with an extra class compared to the previous remake
Honestly crazy that Jacob Gellar hasn’t seen Saw. The first one is not grotesque - it’s a small indie psychological horror that was inventive at the time. If you’ve seen Midsommar of The Witch you’ve seen far more sadistic and disturbing content. If anything, Saw is very dated and tame by today’s standards
1:42:10 same thing happened to me with Assassin's Creed: Syndicate back in 2015. Any time I boot that game back up, I'm like "oh yeah, GameStop ads... what a time." Idk why
15:25 DQ11 is definitely not 150 hours. I beat it at 77 hours on steam and I took my time. Nevertheless, the game does one optional story (that can be missed if you don't continually talk to them when you visit the place in the story) that I've never seen any game do with npcs before, and there are 2 other things tied to the story that I didn't expect to see either. This was my first dragon quest game and I didn't think the story was going to be that good until I actually gave it an attempt to beat it. Nice episode.
When Zelda is walking out to the edge of the cliff for the title reveal you can see it’s clearly the LttP map, then it pans to the left to show the volcano to the west which it a totally new area.
I worked for a marketing/PR/publicist firm and one of our clients was the Thrilling Adventure Hour, of which PFT was a regular part of (in its heyday? I’m actually not sure if it’s still around) This was years ago but I did a couple of comic cons where I interacted with him. But it was mostly like “ok I’m gonna walk you to your next appearance” and maybe handed him a snack if he got hungry lol.
I have to put Nintendo above Xbox for Summer Showcase cause I can play every thing I saw with in the next 6 to 9 months. While Xbox it's a maybe 2024 maybe 2025 maybe 2026 with a maybe close down of studios making said games.
Of course you do because you're a Nintendo fanboy. I put XB and PS over Nintendo because they look like actual 2024 games and not some ugly Gamecube looking trash. Some of those games literally look like GC or PS2 games. The Looney Tunes one was the ugliest game I've seen in a decade.
So great to see playable Zelda. They managed to still let her fight but in a new way. I always found combat lacking in the 2D Zelda games and this looks to be more interesting.
Yep, Zelda is a different part of the triforce. A wise magic-user. She shouldn't be equivalent to Link. I'm glad she has a unique way to be a protagonist without being a stereotype princess or warrior.
I think Zelda can use a sword in the new game. You can see a white directional pad inventory on the screen which shows the staff as one of the one of the options, but there aren’t any other options shown. I bet the other options will be a sword and a bow.
That would undermine a lot of the uses for the echos. I think she'll get other tools or spells. They clearly want her to feel like a different 'class' than Link.
Feel like nobody considered the obvious 'hacks' for the MrBeast Egg Challenge. #1 -- do fish eggs count? If so, great, welcome to billionaire world. But perhaps more realistically for this ridiculous question, #2 -- does it have to be a CHICKEN egg? Because if the only stipulation is that it must be an avian egg, then I'm (comfortably!) eating 30 quail egg omelets for 3 meals and laughing the whole way to the BeastBank. 😄
I would be derelict in my duties as an Arrested Development fan if I didn't mention ANUSTART as being among the pantheon of vanity license plates. Because don't we ALL deserve a new start, really?
The confidence of Ben to label Denpa Men as 'some iOS thing' when it was 3DS-exclusive is so funny. Same with all the stuff he said about Nintendo 'sunsetting' AlphaDream when they never even owned them. No facts, just vibes.
Literally should’ve started with The Thing on an oil rig lmao. I was barely on the line of interest, now it’s an immediate download when I get home from work. The Thing is one is my favorite movies! -FUNKNOWN
I'm basically opposite of Jacob; Metroid was the least interesting thing for me, but I do understand why it's a big deal for fans. I wonder if Mario & Luigi is actually more successful than Metroid? DS was one of the best selling systems and I know Metroid has never sold particularly well. I haven't played either of them, personally.
15:25 😑Start with DQ8 kids. All of them (9 of them actually) are great. However, 8 is an amazing jumping on point for noobs as it is more modern then 1-7 and also not as feature rich as DQ11 so you can still go back and play earlier games without feeling like you are going insane. 11 is amazing, it just suddenly decides to be almost 2 games in one after the second ARC which is kind of a lot for a newcomer to the series. DQ8 sort of does this but honestly it is nowhere near as long - or good - as Arc 3 of 11. Start with 8, then try 9, then if a fan, go back and do these remakes or do 4,5,6. Or You know Just go with recency bias advice from the guy who loves Livealive 😂
What's with the Live A Live vendetta? I really liked that game 🤣 But yeah otherwise I agree. 8's quite hard to play on modern hardware unless you can find the 3DS version or emulate but it's the FF7 of the series.
@@battlep0t I just find it funny how Ben always brings it up. He might be the only content creator I watch who liked it. Having not played it, I have no clue if he is right and everyone else is wrong or not 😉 someday I will check it out.

I was talking to some people about this but they did not agree with me, i thought the music cue was Soooo weird. I think the game looks amazing otherwise
How are people worried or confused about the gameplay of the new Zelda?!? Like I’m genuinely flabbergasted on the takes people have of it. Edit: Ok since it was mentioned I also want to bring out that I think it’s utterly ridiculous to think that Zelda should play the same as Link. Like what purpose would that even serve?

@@intense79nick he points out all the parts of games he doesn’t like if it isn’t a Nintendo game. If it’s a Nintendo game made for 8 year olds it’s amazing. Janet and him also say “like” way too much. Had to get it off my chest. I listen to every episode and it bugs me every time.

Coming from one of the most toxic commenters I've ever seen. Lol. I don't know the last time I encountered anyone with self-awareness this poor.
Sorry Ben, but classic Zelda is still dead so this doesnt count :(
Sure it's "mainline" but like with Super Mario Bros. what good is that when the classic formula is gone.
It's incredible how lackluster your discussion on Erdtree is. Completely clueless all of you
the game isnt even out yet.
Take a pill.
Kyle is annoying af.
Pot calling the kettle black
I forward past his parts tbh
What makes him annoying? Like... I can't see it. Break the glass for me.
Why? You seem to have issues to work out.
@@intense79nick he points out all the parts of games he doesn’t like if it isn’t a Nintendo game. If it’s a Nintendo game made for 8 year olds it’s amazing. Janet and him also say “like” way too much. Had to get it off my chest. I listen to every episode and it bugs me every time.
