I'm just walking my dog Patrick in the woods here in Ireland. He saw a baby mink and they were sniffing each other. I was torn between getting a photo and to keep listening about Fantasia Neo Dimension 😊. Great vid, as always, thanks 👍
That was a hell of a Nintendo direct, and on my 47th birthday no less.

I can't believe that in a direct with a new Zelda game, Metroid Prime 4 footage, and an announcement of DQ I and II in 2D HD, that Fantasian was the announcement that got me the most hyped. What a Direct! Goodness from start to finish.
I was mostly blown away by the Dragon Quest I-2 HD announcements, MVSC2 and Metroid Prime 4 after so many years waiting and almost losing hope I guess I can wait another year.

Thought of you as soon as I saw the Dragon Quest Remakes! They look so awesome!!
I am so happy to see DQ 1,2, and 3 hd collection and Marvel Vs. Capcom collection
Metroid Prime 4, DQ 1-3 HD remakes, Saga 2 Remake, NEW ZELDA... good golly it was epic. Excited to play the New Mario and Luigi with my son. And YES gosh Fantasian is looking so insane, been wanting that for years. Hoping for a physical release.
the Capcom arcade announcement is just insane and I am so happy
One of the best Nintendo Directs ever. The last shot of Metroid Prime 4 was the best. Samus walking through that open area in the forest looked fantastic. The rest of the trailer had me a little worried... Fantasian, Donkey Kong Returns HD, Legend of Zelda Echoes, Dragon Quest, and much more to look forward to! Have a great day, I'm going to play Metroid Zero Mission again now!
It would be amazing if Capcom could give the first 3 breath of fire games the 2DHD treatment.
I'm definitely picking up Marvel vs Capcom Fighting Collection this year. Thank you Capcom, you gave me a week early birthday present lol.
Yes Marvel vs Capcom the gaming deity’s heard my humble cries 😆😆
Finally your Metroid pet brought us luck!!
According to the Marvel website, physical copies are confirmed for the Switch and PS4, and will cost $49.99.
I was on the road and missed it, when i rewatched it, I couldn't believe that so many good games were coming. I still don't believe that Marvel Vs Capcom is a real thing, this was a dream that is now my reality, i waited for 10 years.
Dragon Quest 1,2,3 Hd-2D remakes are going to make my year! I can’t wait!

As a big dragon quest, zelda, and metroid fan, this might have been the best direct yet. My son just got into fighting games, so marvel v capcom is perfect timing, and I can finally play Fantasian.

I'm pretty sure there will be a Switch-successor version of Metroid Prime 4. Tons of people have had this same thought. It's Nintendo's MO. It's just that they usually do it with Zelda games... and I don't think they'll do it with this newest Zelda, lol.

Really excited about DQ 1-3, disappointed there was no Suikoden remaster update though 😭. I was really hoping for WW/TP too
Everyone collectively “Oh my gawd”
The Dragon Quest part was the my favorite even over Metroid Prime 4. Hearing that Dragon Quest music is just so special. But it was great to finally see a little bit of MP4 though. I hope they can show more soon. There's a lot of speculation that it might be being made for both Switch and Switch 2 consoles, but we'll see. It would be sweet to see what it could look like on an upgraded system.
Fantasian on consoles is something I’ve wanted ever since it was announced. I enjoyed Lost Odyssey so much that I got all the achievements including the ones in the DLC dungeon, the fact I now have another Mistwalker game to look forward to has me excited. Need that physical

I'm going to get Fantasian on PC, but damn, Lost Odyssey is so good. It made me sad when they went the mobile game route like surfing and stuff. Hope the game is awesome.
As someone who has been paying for Apple Arcade every month due to my child’s love of Hello Kitty Island Adventure, I squealed with joy when it got announced for Switch. Another sub finally bites the dust!
I saw DQ get announced and said “oh Johnny is gunna be happy!”
That direct was AWESOME!!!🙌
I just wanted to say, your videos are always such a bright light in an increasingly dark world. Thank you for sharing your passion of gaming with others. Really enjoying your videos, its just the pick me up I need after a long work day. Love all the way from Quebec!

So happy about Dragon Quest. Kind of sad we still haven't heard anything about 12, but these remakes look fantastic so I'm more than satisfied with those. Hopefully we hear about 12 next year when they announce more information about 1+2. Seems like we won't get it until 2026 at least. Perhaps they're making it for Next Gen. I doubt it, but would be wild if that was one of the flagship games of the new system.
You picked the right shirt for this direct!
Man I can't wait for DQ 1-3, what a fantastic surprise! I love DQ sooo much. I started with XI and fell in love. Played all of them now. Can't wait for XII either.
Yes 👍! Taking all of us for a ride Marvell vs Capcom arcade fighting collection and Metroid Prime 4 Happy 😊
I wish we would've gotten a demo for DQ3R but i Can't wait to play that game. Guess i can officially leave the OG Collection sealed and play the remasters
I look forward to these so much more than the Directs themselves! Thanks for making this, Johnny, and especially while you aren't feeling your best--I hope you recover quickly!
such a good call on the shirt. I'm good with Zelda actually being who you play as, she could be the overhead view games and link could be the 3d ones.

Nah, we should still get Link for the 2D games. Making Zelda the lead for a game with a drastically different gameplay style makes sense though
I love your show, you're super cool Johnny keep it up! Much love man
I was so hype for MVC2 finally getting freed! Also, do you stream yourself watching these directs anywhere?
I couldn't be happier. HD 2D Dragon Quest Erdrick trilogy?! So hyped. Probably nostalgia, but I'm most excited for Dragon Quest 1. Won't get my hopes up because I'll be happy regardless, but, it will be amazing if DQ1 gets expanded as a game in some way. Zelda Echoes of Wisdom was a welcome surprise. I know everyone wants Wind Waker & Twilight Princess, but you can get a Wii U for a fair price, still, and jail break it if the game discs are too pricey for your budget.
Dragon Quest HD-2D Remakes, Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection, and Metroid 4. I am to excited. I was happy with the DQ and MvC announcements and I was blown away with the MP4 announcement.
Dragon quest hd2d definetly was a winner for me! But also the Romancing Saga 2 remake! Its one of my favorite games off all time, seeing it fully in 3d made me so happy, completly unexpected giving that we got a recently released saga game this year with Emerald Beyond

I'm playing those Dragon Quests. Always wanted to get into them, but I was never convinced by aby of the ports. This style is great, it has the feel of pixel art on a CRT instead of just the regular smooth 2d graphics.
you killed me with all the BEYOND puns hahaha
You should accept Brad's invite to the Summon Sign podcast, Johnny! Great community of gamers over there. It's the crossover we NEED! ✌
The Legend of Zelda - Echoes of Wisdom, Metroid Prime 4 and Donkey Kong Country Returns HD were the best announcements.
Wow!! So many awesome games, MVC collection was a shock! Can’t wait for Mario and Luigi,Zelda and Dragon Quest 1-3 remakes!!! This direct was 🔥🔥🔥
Great direct Marvel vs collection all games so amazing, they also just casually put in the punisher too Capcom are amazing
2:24 that is breath taking. Just when you think everything is advancing, that happens. Its reminding me of how Rare found a new way to draw and animate Donkey Kong Country way back when. 2:45 so beautiful and interesting. Looks like the style of railway model makers back in the day.

I loved this Nintendo direct! I'm most excited about DQ3 and the Zelda Echoes of Wisdom game.
This direct really went beyond my expectations. I was totally expecting just some re-releases/remasters (which would've been fine) but this was so, so much more! MP4 and the Marvel vs. Capcom Collection were probably the biggest surprises for me.
Capcom is doing a physical release of the Fighting Collection per the official website.
i love how nintendo got those marvel vs capcom games cant wait thought those games would be in licensing hell with all those characters
ya know multi-media art has been around forever but the fact we're getting to a place when multi-media vidja games is a thing is wild and wonderful.
Most directs I like, and some I like a lot but this one...amazing!
I really like your review on this video. Subscribed
Looks like a very solid presentation. The Link's Awakening remake was one of my favorites on Switch so Ill definately check out this follow up.
This direct was pure fire. So many jrpgs and other banger titles announced
I’m soooooo hyped for the Erdrick Trilogy on Switch! I can’t wait!!!!!
Nintendo did a great job showcasing games that are releasing now, soon, and in the future.
Love your energy! Great video and summary

Marvel Vs Capcom 2 Dragon Quest HD2D I'm not really into Metroid but Prime 4 looked really good I was interested in most games but those 3 really stood out to me

MvC 2 is back. LET'S GO!!!!
It was the best Direct that I've seen in a long time. The Zelda and Dragon Quest mentions made me so happy! 😊
Yeah Turok was massive when it released. Definitely caught me in the nostalgia net. Unless you lived it you’d never understand.
What a Direct!!! Probably my favorite showcase this month
I don’t remember seeing the switch logo anywhere in the Metroid trailer. This will probably be exclusive to the next switch, maybe switch beyond?
vs. Capcom Fighting Collection is getting a physical edition for Switch and PS4.
yeah the way they announced DQ I&II after the DQ III showcase was slick. I’m personally not a big fan of HD2D style, but I’m glad you like it.

I can’t believe we’re getting two SaGa games in the same year!
I have never met a player from the North American continent who has such a passionate eye for the Dragon Quest title. ☺very pleased. Please continue to be a Happy Console Gamer for many years to come!
I am SUPER excited for DQ3 remake, but sadly I'm less excited for 1 and 2 because I JUST played them both for the first time ever. Planning on playing through the whole series but I waited on 3 because of the remake and now I wish i'd just waited on all 3
I’m excited for the Ace Attorney games that they’ll be bringing over to the switch!
I too am a major Looney Tunes fan! Wish we could have more LT games going forward.
This was the greatest Nintendo direct, everything everyone wanted they got. They truly delivered.
