[@ludvigholst4767]

this aged horribly

[@MysterytheMaker]

@S C because after a year nintendo did nothing to give arms attention and the game suffered until just now, nearly three years later, through the smash announcement. And while the community will try their hardest to keep the game going strong, if nintendo goes through all this and leave it be after they come out in smash, itll surely fall back into obscurity. It's already difficult to find party matches now that the trial has ended... Hopefully whenever ARMS 2 comes around itll have more support. ARMS probably had such a hard time after the updates with it being a new IP, and a new fighting game IP at that.

[@RoyNumber1]

Here’s hoping Nintendo will consider giving this game a sequel. There really is a lot of potential in ARMS and I really don’t want to see it go to waste.

[@Mylegshurt420]

I used to watch this video a lot back then

[@Joshyboy225]

It feels weird watching this again now that ARMS is finished with new content. I love fighting games, and I’ll never forget how excited I got when they first revealed this new IP during the Switch Presentation back in Jan 2017. Sadly, ARMS became a little underrated to most people due to a lack of a story mode, but in my opinion, I don’t really think ARMS needed it: at least not right now; it’s the first game in the series afterall. It’s likely they’ll make an ARMS 2 that focuses on the lore (not to mention Dark Horse is publishing a visual novel for the game next fall!). ARMS will always have a special place in my heart, and it’s become one of my favorite Nintendo IPs. It’s one of the switch’s best selling games too as of right now! I’m willing to bet that Spring Man and Dr. Coyle will be in the next smash game (if that ever happens), and I have no doubt that we’ll eventually see ARMS 2 in the future. Thanks for everything, Mr. Yabuki!

[@waynetastic1746]

hopefully they will ad new fighter and modes too :P

[@levilanzl2389]

It would be cool if Spring Man is the first dlc character added in smash ultimate. They could do it in celebration of ARMS second birthday next year in June. At the same time, I'm not sure if the game has been around long enough, especially as there are still many nintendo characters who haven't yet joined the roster, like Isaac from Golden Sun.

[@Heira]

@@levilanzl2389 they did nothing Happened

[@ØbeliskObv]

O Nasty They added Spring Man as an assist trophy, and Ribbon Girl as a Mii fighter. Guess that’s all the representation they get.

[@rattiedamian8324]

[@LinnyUwU]

[@wishmaker7863]

Even in the visuals department, I've liked how they focused on making it the most visually pleasing instead of modern and realistic. True, there were games like Twilight Princess (which still looks good), but they've always focused on entertainment more than awe in gameplay, sound, and visuals (although there has been quite a bit of awe in all of them throughout the years)

Would just make sense to fill some empty space in the switch’s late life with a sequel or spin off that doesn’t have much competition like last year or this year

[@dinahblakely1888]

Same here 🙏🏿

[@remakeyourself]

Wow. Two games I initially couldn't care less about - the more I see, the more I'm interested. Everything Nintendo is doing from the Switch and Mobile is just hooking me left and right. I passed on Splatoon but that campaign-ish mode looks awesome (saw a lot of Zelda Shrine-like puzzles) and Arms just keeps looking more and more fun. Considering I originally thought it was a more in-depth Wii Boxing, now it looks like a more accessible Overwatch. Do you, Nintendo. I've never owned AND completed six games within the first 2 months of a console launch. You've got me hook, line, and sinker. Now. Metroid at E3. Please. Pretty please.

[@kulplantYouTube]

The first Splatoon have a very good single player campaign too. The only thing keeps me from it was WiiU, but I had so much fun playing it at my friends place.

[@Pharomid]

remakeyourself i'm so torn, they both look good but if i were to get splatoon id have to get the pro controller too (can't play with that trash grip). All 3 would cost a lot

[@blossomsky9426]

remakeyourself but ARMS is more inspired by Segas Virtual-On and the visuals from some old but gold Sega stuff from Dreamcast phase. Splatoon had also this kind of Sega Dreamcast arcad-y vibe, even more. I love ARMS already and want it so badly

[@Pharomid]

What Are Those? Apparently everything is overwatch now if it has non realistic graphics and it has different characters. it's a better wii boxing.

[@ahima6475]

Me too i thought arms wholud be just ok but it looks like it has more love and care for it than i thought at first and way more personallity i downloaded the test punch and im ready to destroy with helix

[@dirtydave1646]

I don't like this kind of game personally, but I really wish it's successful cause I see how much effort Nintendo puts in this game. It seems to me that Nintendo is the only company taking risks by publishing new and innovative IP's (like Splatoon which was very successful). They should be rewarded for their engagement so they can go on trying new things.

[@dogplex]

Dirty Dave That's why people love Nintendo, even after the Wii U. They have that special take on everything, and always tries new things. It's what sets them apart and (in my opinion) makes them better than the competition.

[@joostietoost4220]

Dirty Dave 'It seems to me that Nintendo is the only company taking risks by making new ip's'Wait,Overwatch

[@dirtydave1646]

Joost Heynickx​ Mixing shooters with MOBA isn't that innovative imo. But it's a good game though.

[@brog4037]

Meanwhile in Microsoft's new Xbox One X.... 4K 60 frames per second, comes with mine craft 4k.... Innovation...

Its a new ip

That damn theme song is gonna be on repeat in my head for months now

Wow, the new characters are AMAZING! And we get Volleyball and Hoops too??? Man I wish I had a Switch right now!

Who's here after the Min Min trailer?

Yep

Me

[@AutisticPhantomOtaku]

I'm still hoping for Rayman to be added as a new fighter. #RaymanforARMS

[@POWERWALL5]

I'd prefer Haunter from POkemon ;)

[@AutisticPhantomOtaku]

Yeah. I mean, even though Rayman doesn't have any arms or legs for that matter, the fact that he doesn't have any limbs would make him an ideal choice to be added into ARMS. Plus, if they gave Rayman his Havoc Hands from Rayman 3 (which I haven't played yet, by the way, I still plan on getting a copy for my GameCube), it would be a great opportunity to add Arms based on items and weapons from other video games.

[@notyouravrgjoe102]

um no??

[@bigshobe]

That would be terrible

[@topgoose4926]

Guys we need monkey d luffy he's perfect for the game

[@dreadfury2485]

If you guys host official ARMS tournaments, you need to make sure Biff is your live commentator for the matches you stream! How cool would that be?

[@DezRexy]

Anyone else notice that at 10:29 the Slamamander turns into a Revolver?

[@waynetastic1746]

nope but now i do

[@GizmosMonster]

Twintelle will be the ARMS version of Bayonetta

[@raphniamagna2567]

Gizmos Monster or gardevoir

[@CristianMartinez-rg9sz]

Zalefolius Lizalfens I don't think you get it.

[@RetroDeath]

THREE new character reveals!! People owe me some serious money! Definitely maining #Twintelle for sure!

[@highcaliber350]

RetroDeath four if you include the final boss we saw at the end

[@RetroDeath]

The question mark is just the standard 'random' character selection.

[@RetroDeath]

Considering he has FOUR freaking ARMS (something they shouldn't have spoiled) I doubt he will become playable.

[@jacobfoxfires9647]

I think they were talking about the Gold fighter that fought Springman. But yeah him and Mr 6 ARMed Aztec god looked like final bosses. So I am okay with that.

[@actionfilmist]

Wheres the 4 arm dude at?

[@HerrKotte]

I hope one of the DLC characters (if there even are any) is a viking themed character who fights with his beard. Similar to how Twintelle fights with her hair.

[@CristianMartinez-rg9sz]

Kotten I want one where the charecter is literally ramen. And they fight with their noodles.

[@stevenquartzcutiepiedemayo4430]

@@CristianMartinez-rg9sz ...Min Min?

[@zankiohex]

I was thinking "a volleyball mode like in tekken back then would be awesome", funny how that goes. Nintendo can read my mind!

[@win9xse]

Biff has to be the greatest new character to come out of the Switch. (Besides Sidon, but we don't mention him.)

[@lucasfox2494]

Nintendo, PLEASE come back to Brazil!

[@JMGO1999EternalMajorKakoEscoby]

Lucas Fonseca Bruttomesso Just buy it in the internet, i am Brazilian and have a Nintendo Switch whit Zelda Breath of the Wild, its easy to buy in the internet

[@lucasfox2494]

I have those too from the internet, but I want Nintendo to come back to Brazil so I can buy Super Mario Odyssey, Sonic Forces, among other games at a store for a lower price than today like I used to.

[@RadiaUmbra]

When you're that lonely fan in Brazil (not referencing to me)

[@jackson5116]

why? Switch is region free, import one!

DarkGamer 364 I agree. So far, we only have Helix and Byte&Barq as non-human characters (unless you count Master Mummy as well, since he's technically no longer human).

[@kay0ling]

We need another ARMS game!

[@dinahblakely1888]

Agreed 👍🏿

[@RedMage95]

Each direct that goes by I hope for any ounce of news for more ARMS. Cause having arms like these is pretty rad.

"I was shocked at first, but having arms like this is actually pretty rad." ICONIC

I wasn't really up in ARM'S about this game before but definitely now it's going to be a day one buy for me.

Really got to HAND it to nintendo; they know how to present a game

[@flarestorm9417]

Anyone else loving the music style ARMS has?

Flarestorm Yes very much . 😊😊

[@minecrafter3448]

Most underrated game on switch by far. It really did not get the attention it deserved.

16:02 at first I thought they were going to say "is over 9000"
