"I never get angry during these things"

*Hard cut to John Reacting to Dragon Quest X still not getting a worldwide release*

[RetroBreak]

I think you'll be surprised the amount of big Tomodachi life fans! It was very popular on the 3DS, and I'm sure a lot of kids growing up with it have very fond nostalgia for it. It's a fun game!

[MrBacchus]

My 18 year old son was hyped about Tamodachi Life, one of his favorite games and very surprised there is a sequel. I guess that goes to show that every game is someones favorite.

[Uncle_Retro]

The Marvel Invasion game are the same people who made the TMNT shredders Revenge game, which was pretty awesome so I’m excited to play a new Marvel game by them.

Having Dragon Quest use HD-2D is so perfect. It’s such a beautiful art style, like a pop-up book with vivid colors and super crisp graphics, absolutely f*cking gorgeous. Can’t wait for DQ I&II to come out. I’m also psyched for Shadow Labyrinth, I think it looks really interesting. And bringing back the Hot Shots name in Everybody’s Golf: Hot Shots, I think is a super cool idea.

Raidou remaster is easily the most exciting part of this Direct for me. Maybe they'll bring back Digital Devil Saga, too.

Metroid prime 4 and marvel cosmic invasion were the highlights for me

[Blutroth]

Raidou is my highlight. I've been waiting for a HD remaster for many many years!

[shogunmacarthur]

Tomodachi Life is an absolutely iconic game for my generation, there's definitely a difference in reactions to this Direct based on age! Also Tamagotchi Corner Shop and Rhythm Heaven were big games in my childhood, so this was a very nostalgic Direct for me.

[TKMRacer]

Been waiting for this 😍
You’re the best Johnny

[grassnoodles]

The Raidou remaster looks so good and there are so many amazing additions!!! I'm so excited

[MackenziePerrault]

I can't wait for Dragon Quest I and II.

The original dragon warrior is one of my all time comfort games, but I wasn't obsessed with dragon warrior II so I'm really looking forward to loving it in this remake.

[joelpark]

The Eternal life of Goldman is a Duck tales style platformer that has been announced for ages. I played it last year at a trade show. It was great! It was nice to see Nintendo give it the spotlight.

[petitemasque]

Well, at least Devil Summoner is really a remaster. Now, the scenarios have fully 3D backgrounds instead of the pre-rendered backgrounds from the original.

[GamerToons]

Johnny... that Everybodys golf ... thats from the people that made Hot Shots on all the Playstations. Same studio.

[LRrealest]

I had no expectations, but at least wanted to see DQ1-2HD. Unfortunate they didn't give a release date. The Direct was ok, but that's ok for me. I'm currently hooked on Xenoblade Chronicles X, the Switch 2 is coming up, and there's always Good Ol Backlog available at all times.

[Earlysgamer]

I was waiting for your reaction Johnny!

[Smickers]

So excited for Raidou! Hopefully brings in a new audience for more titles!

[RPGreg]

Lol, I immediately thought of you when they showed the Gradius Collection.

[The_Gabba_Ghoul]

Johnny, "hookup with your friends" doesn't mean what you think it means anymore.
