All that work on this video and all I can think about is how I failed to edit out the monstrously loud click noise at the beginning when I say "shocking."
It haunts me. It will probably haunt me for all of my days.
I don't hear it :)
Arlo I love you, you always put a smile on my face when you upload
Hi Arlo
It shouldn’t my dude.. (I have a video suggestion) Could you do a video talking about the great Nintendo Direct drought of 2020.. you made one last year but I feel you need to make a sequel because it’s almost March and we haven’t gotten a Nintendo Direct since September.. hope this helps! 👋👋👋
If it helps i dident even notice it
He's given up on Pikmin 4 and moved on to Pikmin 5.
At this rate we're more likely to get Hey Pikmin 2...

Arlo: "Nintendo games have legs"
*shows a clip of Link attacking Naboris' legs*
I love this guy
Well its his editor that put that there.
Lol I had the same reaction to that (also nice pfp, I see you)
Also... Arms...
Why's everyone so surprised that Arlo has ears? His first video was literally him reviewing a pair of Audio Technica headphones.
Oh my god your right
Oh fuck
It's even funnier because future arlo videos have him sponsor raycon so I forgot it wasn't a fact at this point everyone knew.
Arlo: “Street Fighter II has 89,413 different versions.”
Me: “Huh. I thought he would exaggerate that number.”
Me:
LOL
After confirming he has ears, theorists must rewrite the arlo lore
*Arlore

@@Ashamedofmypast I believe the term "Arlore" has been agreed upon for some time. I may be mistaken, though.
We also now know about Vanessa. The Arlo lore is getting deeper and deeper...

“And you have yourself a great POPSICLE!”
Popsicle?! Who could have seen that twist endi-
“Directed by M. Night Shyamalan”
Oh... that makes sense now
WHAT A TWIST!!!
Can you explain this? I’m too young to have seen them.
Woojin Jang Shyamalan is a film director who likes to have big plot twists in his movies. When Arlo said “have yourself a great” the next word would typically be something like day, afternoon, or evening, so it was a “twist” for him to say popsicle instead.
I admit that part made me laugh out loud!
@@woojinjang8077 The "What a twist!" line comes from Robot Chicken.
Pokemon Egg and Bacon. That’s a game I want to play.
Would Exeggutor and Miltank be the mascots?
Dan Peters Grumpig not miltank
@@gamerfreak820 I'm honestly embarrassed that I mistook bacon as a cow meat
I can't wait for the Sword and Shield remake, Pokemon Bangers and Mash
Nah man, F-Zero Amiibo Festival.
To be legit, a Nintendo "Mario Party" esque game that made use of the entire cataloge of amiibo on release, and kept up with later ones, might be the killer app needed to really kick Amiibo sales back into high gear.
Seeing Luigi's Mansion being "among the smash hits" makes me happy. This is good.
@2026: Sebastian Barron it already has...
Me too
So, I’m glad it’s there, but let’s be a little objective. It’s less of a smash hit and more of a hit, sales wise.
What makes me happy is Odyssey blowing out a 2D Mario game. I understand it’s just a rerelease of a Wii U game, but it’s still a nice thing.
I feel like Arlo revealing he has ears is a piece of knowledge that people are going to abuse in cursed ways
Arlo ASMR?
waiting for people draw what the ears look like underneath the fur
@StrongestBoss oh gooood your right
Christopher Moon I swear I see one of your comments every single time I watch any video
Thanks for putting multiple of your comments in the comment section.
*Arlo:* "And you have yourself a great POPSICLE!"
*Shyamalan:* "What a plot-twist!"
I'm hoping for a fudge pop sequel.
what a pop-twist
Shyamalan: *writing profusely.*
"F-Zero: Amiibo Festival" made me take damage.
I can't wait until F-Zero: Federation Force.
F-Zero Adventures: Dinosaur Planet
Where Captain Falcon lands on said planet and James McCloud is there just like "Eyyyyy!"
Onw for the racer, one for the cart, oh and instead of using the switch amibo function you have to buy a portal
19:40 - Ah, good to know that b'spillion falls somewhere between 19.81 million and 25.06 million.
I wouldn't be so sure of that, considering the list claims that 4 million (10th place) is less than 3.83 million (9th place). I wonder what this means?
I'm just annoyed at that list, yes some of those are stupid names but things like the HD Phantom hourglass I'd buy in a heartbeat(along with spirit tracks if they make it). Those games I love on the ds, but I hate the stylus controls being forced where they don't belong tbh. Some places i get it, but as much as I know i have to use it is annoying as hell as someone who keeps trying to play then misplacing a charger and never going back to it XD
Kaosine I would LOVE that. you didn’t like the stylus controls??? It’s probably because i played the DS zeldas before the others, but i felt the stylus worked perfectly. Stuff like the boomerang and bow were so much more precise, and swinging the sword was fun. I was kinda sad that ALBW on the 3ds went back to regular controls, pressing a button to use all items just doesn’t feel as engaging.
@@spoon7053 oh there were places it worked, but I hated it being shoehorned in for movement. THAT made no sense.
Kaosine huh, i didn’t really mind. i feel like it gave you greater control over movement bc you can run, tiptoe or anything in between, which the dpad wouldnt be able to do as well. but i respect your opinion though, it is kinda weird. weird like the entire game of spirit tracks lol
19:40 Arlo is the best leaker in history, he even leaked sales figures
It would be a missed opportunity if “Super Mario Whatever Who Cares” didn’t get a respective Funky Mode.
ARMS kart though.
@@MaxTheSwagMasterC I really liked the let's go moblin and let's go Boko DLC.
They definitely missed “something” with Mario Maker 2. Stuff to keep the community engaged. Like events, more updates, some kind of competitions... I dunno, does someone know what I’m saying here?
Totally get you. To me it barely feels like a sequel and we're still waiting for map editor, more power ups and *search by title* course world.
It's like Mario Party, though not as bad. At least MM2 was hyped up and had some legs beyond the base game. The Mario Party franchise, however... man, if it got the Super-Loving-Update treatment like Smash, Mario, and Zelda... we'd have a crowning jewel on our hands.
Free online like the Wii U version
@@firenze6478 That's EXACTLY what it is. Nintendo would've made MORE money without that blasted "service" fucking up the online section of their games.
@@firenze6478 Oh my fucking god YES. The biggest issue with the switch imo. Although it's quite a low problem when compared to how other companies handle online, it still sucks that Nintendo has adopted this annoying trend of making people pay for internet connection on their console.
turns out that when you're the best-selling franchise you can just do the bare minimum and still do almost as good saleswise as mario or zelda
Pokemon man....there is almost no competition for it. And it DOES sell in name alone. EVERYONE from kids to grown ass adults buy it EVEN IF they know they'll hate it
I still say its influence from that mindless bug catcher he made excuses for everything and people bought them all
Hey Arlo, i know you probably won't read this and its not regarding the topic of the video, but i just need to say THANK YOU for helping me discover Metroid and Pikmin as a franchise. I never really was into them but with your videos i discovered my enthusiasm for the games!
Now i was finally able to catch a Gamecube with Pikmin and Metroid Prime (for only 70€ ;) ) to continue the journey!!
I've never played Pikmin, but seeing Arlo's enthusiasm does make me more curious about it. Also, I randomly found a beautiful rendition of one of the songs a while back, and even though I don't know the context or anything, it actually makes me want to play through it.
ruclips.net/video/UxZF1iNywm4/видео.html
A Higgs Play Pikmin.
@@Andrew-qu7lq First, thanks for sharing, the song is awesome and i think it somehow captures the vibe of Pikmin quite well. Second, i played Pikmin 3 and had a blast, the game is full of fun and you can feel it was crafted with love by the developers :) So a definitive yes for trying out, Pikmin 3 for example is available for a cheap price as Nintendo Selects on the eShop if you dont have access to 1 or 2.
Pikmin is amazing, especially the third one. The campaign is great, and the multiplayer is super underrated.
Never played Metroid Prime though, kinda waiting for a Switch trilogy port.
Pikmin was my first GameCube game! So happy to see you guys discover it
"F-Zero: Amiibo Festival" killed me.
Also I would unironically be all over Phantom Hourglass HD.
Yeah, I would actually love a HD Phantom Hourglass as well.
It would probably be somewhat jank on the Switch's touchscreen, but I'd still be down, Phantom Hourglass rules.
Pokemon egg and bacon
Spirit tracks as well please!
Can't wait for Modern Warfare Dark Moon.
Animal Crossing is gonna boot Luigi's Mansion right out of the top 10 within like a month

The most important thing we learned from this video today, ARLO HAS FREAKIN EARS!
Woz The Scott here Scott all hey

I expect that type of language at Denny's, but not here!
"Like VaNESSA!" Almost burst out laughing at work. XD
Ultimatron 96 same here Dude. I don’t know where you are Vanessa. But if you have a different opinion from ARLO ONE MORE TIME!
I don't know what I said.
I'm so happy to see Splatoon 2 doing so well, I hope this means either a new Splatoon or another expansion to updates and events for Splatoon 2 in the relatively near future (though future updates to Splatoon 2 aren't looking too promising as there haven't been any content updates or events since July).
Apparently we're getting an update in April and they haven't given us any hints about what it could be.
🤔
@@-memoria-2136 They had a balance update in January, so it's probably just another one of those.
@@Aidea._. Most likely, but I think they're trying to hint to something with the whole Save Our Salmon thing. A girl can dream, right?
@@-memoria-2136 I still feel that that's more likely to be hinting at a new game coming. Maybe we'll be seeing an announcement for either a Splatoon spinoff or Splatoon 3 whenever the next general Nintendo Direct comes?
I love listening to Arlo talk about something he loves. It's just so wholesome.
He has ears. That changes everything.
The problem with sword and shields sales is that I know many people who bought both games, which expanded the sales numbers but probably not the player count
The question is how big this phenomenon is.
I am not sure the impact is as big as it seems (Pokemon Sword alone sold quite well after all)
People got both just to spite the people who didn't like it.
Player count doesn’t really matter though. For Nintendo, 16 million people buying one game and 1 person buying 16 million copies equates to the same amount of money in the bank
@@galegai I mean, a game with a lower audience takes longer to expand. If the number of pokemon players has indeed gone down, the games may not gain as much profit for the next generation.
1 person can spread the word about his 16 million copies of a game only he owns.
Or 16 million people can spread word about a game they each owe.
Which one do you think advertises the game better?
@@hypernova_119 I feel like that's probably the minority of the people who bought both
Pokémon: When your sheer size as a brand lets you eclipse other, more creative and innovative titles.
EDIT: I'm going to tack this on the end here, I stopped buying Pokemon games because if you've played one you've played them all, and the story has only experienced 3 major formula changes. From gen 2 to gen 3, where the enemy team could be anyone, and from gen 6 to gen 7 where there is now a fake out team. (Skull to Aether, Yell to... I dunno, oil company guy?) I acknowledge that it was innovative for it's original release, however adding new moves isn't innovating. There has been no functional change to the core mechanic. Why bother? It's fun, it works, that's all you need in a game. While the original comment I made was overwhelmingly critical of pokemon, I'd like to take this opportunity to say I'm actually just... really disillusioned. It was fun the first 5 times I played it, now it's getting old. You can add dynamaxing or mega evolutions or Z moves all you want, but what does it really change? You still pick your moves off a list that you construct yourself. It's a bunch of smoke and mirrors to make you think something new and exciting is taking place. I have decided to distance myself from the franchise as whole. It just isn't interesting to me anymore. Do with that what you will. I don't care. Caring is too hard these days for me to waste my energy on it here. Take care everyone.
Basically...
It's so sad, man.
It’s entirely because of all of the people like those on the pokemon subreddit that complained nonstop that it looks awful and people should boycott the games and then went and bought it day one.
Couldn't have put it better...
the Top 10 list said that it was "as of December 31, 2019." Pokemon released in November which means they got 16.06 million units in a little over a month. What the frick.
“Nintendo has legs” as you show link shooting the legs of a divine beast
The fact that NSMBU Deluxe is on the top selling list makes my brain hurt.
If I had to guess, it's probably because it's a really safe choice for a game for younger or more family audiences. Can't go wrong with a simple game
I still can't believe Nintendo actually put that hentai meme crown from the internet into the game!
It's because people don't hold 2D games to the same standard of quality as 3D.
@@Smuggy97 I guess that's right.
@@AkameGaKillfan777 Pokemon says hi
19:40 I wish Nintendo would release a Wario Land 5.
Shake IT
TwilightYonder720 And Master of Disguise in a way too. But you know what I mean. The Wario Land franchise have been dormant since Shake it, and that’s a shame.
@@TwilightYonder720 Wario Land 6 then, but people get weird about numbers. Like how, for all intents and purposes, Rockman & Forte was Megaman 9, and then they went and released Megaman 9.
Luigi's Mansion 3: Sells over 5million units
Animal Crossing: hold my beer
I mean, Animal Crossing will sell 3-4 times that, easily.
Deltath Riylaan I don’t see it selling 15mill, unless a whole bunch of non fans give it a chance
Yeah, ur probably right
@@thatcallofdutygamer2823 Considering every other big franchise on the system has pulled in tons of new players and Nintendo in general has earned tons of new fans.. and considering Animal Crossing sold nearly 12 million on the 3DS when the system had barely 10 million users when the game launched and the Switch has close to 60 million by comparison... Yeah, I think 15 million isn't just likely, but almost guaranteed. I'd say two to three years from now, it'll be at 20-25 million. Nintendo games continue to sell and as the install base grows, these games just get more and more potential fans.
And it's by far the biggest and best looking one yet in the series. Obviously we can't know for sure until some time from now, but I'd be surprised if it didn't sell that well.
@@thatcallofdutygamer2823 This comment aged horribly.
Mario Party sold well because:
1- It has MARIO on the cover
2- It's normally on sale
3- The 'party' on the name kinda makes it ideal for parents to give to their kids
Obviously. I would bet my left nut that 9 out of 10 copies were given away, or on sale, or both, or bought for little children for birthdays or all of the above mentioned combined...
I’m assuming it’s just ear holes like birds and stuff
That was possibly the funniest sponsored ad from any RUclips I've seen 😂😂 I actually liked watching it unlike the usual. You're the best, Arlo!
Something Arlo seemed to gloss over when talking about Super Mario Party's sales, he didn't mention that it was bundled with Joy Cons for about the same price as a new set of Joy Cons. That's probably inflating it's sales.
As he mentioned it for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe it should be mentioned for Super Mario Party as well.
LPSoldin Well he most likely didn’t know that. The Mario party bundle doesn’t seem to be very common so I doubt that is a big reason for Mario party’s sales.
@@jasonle520 I mean, I saw them all of the time whenever I shopped for Switch games, both on Nintendo's Website and other stores like Amazon or Best Buy.
But that doesn't mean people were buying them, I never noticed them going out of stock.
19:41 Not gonna lie, I'd pay full price for ARMS Kart 😆
Same, like, let me punch competitors out of their karts with spring arms while holding the wheel with my legs using the Ring Fit Adventure control thing or something. It would be insane XD

@@airplane6417 wouldn't arlo have to be in a video game before matpat could call it a game theory? Or has he broken even that sacred rule with his content now?
Dude I’m gonna write my thesis on Arlos.
Breath of the Wild was my first Zelda game (and first open world game) and it is one of the greatest games I have ever played in my entire life.
It’s so true about the switch. I feel like anyone who buys a switch is a gamer period. They’re focused on actual games rather than sports games like we see on Xbox and PlayStation. I feel like Playstaion and Xbox is half and half to gamers and people who only play sports games. I’ve seen ALOT of people just play ea sports games or gta v or cod. That’s it! Like nothing else. Why you don’t see them having a switch anytime soon. I can always trust someone who has a switch cause I know their mostly there playing a really good Nintendo game
Just to play devil's advocate, an Xbox fan could turn it around and say that Switch owners are not gamers, as they only play Nintendo games and not "intense" or graphically impressive games.
I mean I disagree with that sentiment but your idea is heavily biased as well, gamers are gamers man
Tunarice Inc. but then there are people who say “SWitCh hAS nO GamEs” and we can say they do not know what games are
I own a Switch, and I'm actually only a super casual gamer. As in, I find video games interesting, and I'm particularly partial to games like Animal Crossing and Mario, but I can't see myself spending an entire day playing video games or organizing events around them. I just like games, kinda like how people like playing chess or checkers with their families.
Literally one of the best sponsor spots I've ever seen. I find myself skipping over or tuning out sponsor spots in videos, but yours was so entertaining.
It was good but Internet Historian is still the king of sponsors.
Last time I was this early, New Horizons was set to come out in 2019.
...an age long past.....
This is not funny just sad.
I don't see anyone mentioning this, but it's also relevant that these games never go under 40 dollars, rarely go below 50, and are usually between 55 and 60.
So when you compare these sales to games from most other consoles, at the same number of sales, you can be sure Nintendo makes a billionshsh more money that the other platforms
doctoraculah that doesn’t include the money that stores get. So Nintendo doesn’t actually get 60 dollars from a 60 dollar game.
@@jasonle520 except digital games, where they get 100%
Still, I'm sure that they get more money when Amazon sells their games for 60 than when it sells them for 20

Gotta say the editing is ON POINT!!!
Cayden M Always 💯
19:40 I like how ‘ARMS Kart’ is -4 million.
I legit didn’t see that.
Everything about this video is high-end quality greatness
The jokes, the editing, the expressions, everything!
Arlo's comedy hits just right lol, first time I think I've laughed at an audible ad
frysta i loved the “like vanessa” part for some reason lol
19:39 That list is just hilarious 😂
The quality of the editing and jokes of this video was great! It felt even better than your other videos
I think that luigis mension 3 sales will rocket in the following year because you forgot about one thing: it got those sales while basically competeing with pokemon.
Honestly, I would buy a phantom hourglass remake.
Regarding Pokémon Sword and Shield’s sale, I’ve been saying this and I’ll continue saying this: if you don’t like something, don’t buy it. I love Pokémon and I saw all the negativity around Pokémon Sword and Shield before it came out and some people may have not bought it because of it but any Pokémon game is better than none so I’ll continue to buy Pokémon games because I want more Pokémon games.
I'd recommend you remember this: "A delayed game is good eventually, a rushed game is bad forever"
I was so late to the whole drama, but most if not all people i know regret buying that game and i'm still amused pokemon colosseum (2003) and XD (2005) games had better animations and polish, i think the negativity is deserved? I still have hope for future games of the serie tho.
@@tealeaf3210 Facts. You could take any other Switch game and compare it but the easiest comparison is Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. It has the most content of any game in the series by far but it sacrificed nothing, everything looks so stunning and detailed and the fact that it's a Wii U port at the end of the day really drives it home the care that really didn't go into Sword and Shield
I have never enjoyed sponsor ad so much. Thank you, Arlo. This is why I love you.
Arlo vids where u can actually see arlo are the best arlo vids :) loved the ending. 5/5 would watch again :)
This was a wonderful episode! I loved all of your peppered in jokes 💜
Is Three Houses caught up to Fates yet to take the mantle of top selling Fire Emblem game? That would be another big win for the switch
This is one off your best written, most informative, and funniest videos in a long time. Really well done.
I just wanted to say Arlo, that I enjoy all your content and could probably listen to you talk about whatever, but this video in particular made me laugh out loud a good few times - keep up the great work!

Thank you for your witty and passionate content, Arlo. You make me laugh and love the community surrounding Nintendo all the more. I'm glad we live in the age where someone like you can garner a following and do what they love to the benefit of viewers. Papa Bless
Not going to lie but I enjoyed Sword and Shield and so did my friends. Yep the games are nothing groundbreaking and don’t include all the Pokemon but there still fun to most of the fans. I will be honest this was my first proper Pokemon game not counting Let’s Go, which I didn’t like, so maybe my expectations were lower then everyone else.
I’m sad to see ring fit adventure out sale Fire Emblem Three Houses
Sad monster hunter isn’t on this list
Me too, but it's all the more reason why people need to stop overexaggerating FE's overall success. The series was NEVER one of Nintendo's top sellers.
AkameGaKillfan777 to be honest they just need to stop shoving shameless ad reps in smash, instead of byleth we should get Dimitri, instead of corrin, or three lords from awakening we should get tiki, the original manakete who’s been in more games than any character not named Anna, hector would be cool and could have edelgard as an alt. And arvis is the fan favorite villain and a straight up mage, to keep Zelda company as the only other full mage character
AkameGaKillfan777 the overexaggerating fe fan base also like to pretend that fe didn’t exist pre awakening.

Arlo...they can just sell Mario Kart 9 at the end of the Switch’s lifecycle.
I do see that SS has improved a lot on the game, hell the character customization is amazing, certain parts of the game do look really good, the music is pretty good, multiple gyms, the designs for mons and characters. But there are SO much more bad then good with the games though, and I'm sure these bad things will not go away...

I come from the future. How about Number 2?
Excellent editing, excellent script, excellent video!! Really really enjoyed this one.
Great video as always Arlo! Keep up the good work
Sword And Shield, Mario Odyssey, Breath of the Wild, and Mario Party: I think now we can settle into our ranks.
Animal Crossing: No, Im number 4. And hey, I'm the only one who can have calm in my games.
Nice video Arlo, I have to say I’m excited for the future when regarding the future of the franchises, especially with the upcoming Animal Crossing game and the new Breath of the Wild sequel, so here’s hoping Nintendo does a good job on the games and they sell well to set a good precedent for the future. I love all of the franchises equally, seeing as Nintendo has played a large part of my life, although there’s the odd occasion where Nintendo does do questionable decisions such as through bad PR. In the case of Sword and Shield, I wish they did sell less, but I’m happy with the game, just would’ve liked it if Game Freak did include all of the Pokémon and not just simply a selection because of “hardware limitations” or whatever the excuse is for the future. I skipped Let’s Go as it just never really appealed to me and it basically being the billionth gen 1 remake. Sword and Shield are underwhelming, but for me there’s still enough to enjoy and that’s what matters for me. I just wish people would stop throwing people under the rug and think they’re automatically a shill or apologist just when they play the game - they’re people who also played the games and are disappointed and people like myself who enjoyed it but agree with the sentiments of people on both sides of the argument. Can’t people at least try to be respectful of one another instead of acting like assholes? Anywho, again, nice video Arlo, keep up the good work.
That audible add was the best. Thank you, Arlo.
Pausing at 19:40 made me laugh the most I have laughed in quite a while. Never change, Arlo :)
And I am one of those 2 million. I would have bought Sword & Sheild if it wasn't for the backlash. I see a lot of kids buying the game, and that's why it sold well.
im one of the 2 mil as well
2 million is a made up number
Ftr i didnt buy S&S. I love JRPGs but pokemon is way too easy for me. But if "i see a lot of kids buying this" is true it proves that the things you care about in a "good pokemon" dont matter...at all.
@@ChicCanyon facts
I am sorry you can't have all 40 species of tiny bird pokemon
Pikachu Popsicle: "Very Twisty..."
0:50 it's nice to know you played such an amazing game series. You shot review the witcher on switch. This was great as usual Arlo
Arlo gets my free “listen to ads willingly” support of the day. If he has ears I’m going to use mine as well!
Mario Maker 2 requires a Nintendo Online subscription to download user created levels. Mario Maker 1 did not. That might have something to do with the non-impressive sales. Also no amiibo costumes.
when New Horizons releases and it outsells this whole list >>>
A new Arlo video! Right after finding my old 2DS! This is a happy day!
"Phantom Hourglass HD"
...
Never have I needed something this much and not known it til now.
ARLO: "You might just be SOL."
ME: Arlo, what do the Detroit Lions have anything to do with this?
Arlo's hottest take: "The Village wasn't so bad"
That was one of the funniest endings I've ever seen. I'll remember that for a long time, thank you
So glad I found Arlo's videos
