If you're not begging Nintendo for a sequel, you're probably reciting "I was shocked at first, but having ARMS like this is actually *pretty rad."*
i miss this game :(
Sim🥺
"free updates/DLC" This is what sold me
SugarFreeTargets if that DLC could be skins I'll be so happy
Hermit of the Internet I can already see spring man getting a little Mac skin I can't be the only one that sees it
*cough*EA*cough*ACTIVISON*Cough*
Me too, also that's what sold me with splatoon
iPotionX Well, Overwatch is from Activision and all Overwatch DLC's are free and will be free for ever
"I was shocked at first, but having ARMS like this is actually pretty rad." -Spring Man, 2017
Jared Suchomel I was in tears when he said that line
Mickey Lolicon and
Ariana xiong And I wish I was never born
A quote of a true hero.
Alec Wilson Man that's.... ....radical :D Get it? Radical signs :D Ima leave now....
This game was severely underrated... I still pop it in to this day.
the hot pockets of video games
"No Smash?" "No Pokémon?" IT WAS CALLED *ARMS* DIRECT FOR A REASON
Well to be fair, in the ARMS direct, they did have a Splatoon 2 moment at the end, but your still right.
Mr.C-NES They said there was going to be a new Splatoon 2 trailer.
You mean a NEW Nintendo owned IP is going to end up in Smash? You dont say lol.
Billy Billy Bo Billy Banana Fana Fo Filly Rumors say that there will be a new smash title coming in 2018
Zombies Caffeine true true lol
"I was shocked at first but having arms like these is actually pretty rad." Spring man-2017 1:09
lol ikr
Meme Masterz hah seriously though
R A D
Meme Masterz Me
RAD
Spring Man's hair is Colgate toothpaste
Gavin McLaurin You're late
Ranen Chancelor your late as well
Gavin McLaurin it is
That’s what I thought too! I actually called him Colgate while playing
or call him toothpaste man XD Sorry spring man he's my favorite character
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.
Same here, It'll be a bad ending for it if it's just gonna die at game one.
Yes seriously!!!
I love how nintendo is now giving deep lore to silly game concepts. I just love it.
Steven Galvan Kirby bosses have surprisingly deep lore if you pause mid battle
Steven Galvan to be honest they've always done stuff like that
Steven Galvan literally Overwatch
Satire on other fighting games
they're biting off overwatch success with that one. I felt it the whole video
12:12 - "Oh Ramen gods why must you forsake me?" That made me laugh
Cole West best biff quote
0:02 OH MY GOSH At the beginning there was a splat of ink at the bottom right corner which was an Easter Egg that they would show a new Splatoon Trailer at the end!!!
Yeah i the thumbnail
Wait, that's illegal
I was shocked at first, but being added to Smash Bros as DLC is actually pretty rad.
You havent revealed if Springman's toasters can toast toast
some stingy on the internet ALL toasters toast toast
ALL toasters toast toast.
ALL toasters toast toast
All toasters toast bread
some stingy on the internet *ALL TOASTERS TOAST TOAST*
Everyone talking bout twintelle bein thick when mummy is the one who really got cake smh
he extra thicc
"Hello? I would like to place an order..."

22:26 you're wrong
supah smashed 2 lol
I want Biff to narrate the June Smash Direct
he sadly did not but hey min min got in
@@angrypvz1646 min min for the win win
Biff makes for yet another unfortunate case of employment impacted by the pandemic. At least Nintendo and Sakurai came in with the save sending a recording setup in Sakurai's own friggin living room.

@@Derbakerta1031 NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODLES
Min Min: Gets in Smash KZhead: How about I recommend this 3 year old ARMS video to people?
Makes sense to me!
Remember when we got updates for ARMS? nintendo please I suck at online but im tired of dr.coil and hedlock fights
Nathan Lokken lol
I’m not sure how old is Min Min
@@gracepo9685 Sakurai said she's 18 years old
That was sick. ARMS actually looks fun af and FREE DLC. You can just tell how much time and love Nintendo has put into ARMS.
Capcom's Street Fighter V should take notes.
purkle200 uhhhh xd
this aged horribly
@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.
@@MysterytheMaker too bad this is a one and done game from the looks of it
can we take a moment to appreciate that in the description there are time stamps
XETV
*Funny how this was recommended to me after watching Min Min's reveal for Smash DLC Pack 6*
Yup same.
Yee
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!
hopefully they will ad new fighter and modes too :P
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.
@@levilanzl2389 they did nothing Happened
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.
@@slicksolo9701 actually they add 4 spirits from arms min min Primary one Spring man primary one and ribbon girl primary so yeah and two support spirits from arms but yes and also two Mii fighters costume for arms one assist trophy
That was such a good presentation for Arms. Now I cannot wait for the upcoming "Testpunch"
Mario1080p A bit annoying america gets an extra day though imo.
They don't get an extra day. It says NA only because of time zones.
14:44 So technically Bayonetta is in ARMS? They can both slow down time, fight with their hair and have good looking butts. Yep, definitely Bayonetta in disguise.
+Villager of SmashVille Hmm, I never thought of that. I guess I was too focused on Minmin's ramen noodle arms. Mmmmm.....tasty....
And Byte and Bark are Rosalina and Luma, lol.
Villager of SmashVille she's also an air fighter, because of her slowing effect while she's in the air.
Villager of SmashVille You're so right villager. So amazing to see this in advantage.
With a Wonder Mask
This game is incredibly underrated. I hope it gets a sequel one day.
I’m with you there!
Or at least new content on the game pls!
_"Oh, ramen gods, why must you forsake me?"_ -Biff, 2017
I like when Nintendo understand "fun" more than "graphics".
Keith 'Qzo' Iman its always has been with them and that's why I love them...if I wanted real life graphics I would just go outside idk why people get off on that lmao
I've always loved how Nintendo creates really colourful, flashy visuals in their games, makes it so much more appealing to look at.
The snes, n64 and gamecube where more powerful than their competitors
Same.
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)
Twintelle is killing the internet right now.
KoKuTan Lufi ikr
th rurle 34 website is chrasing
no min min is
Hurri CaynGaming i agree
Runeen what is rule34?
13:02 6 years ago, and I’m still wondering how did they pull this off
Please, Nintendo, let Mr. Yabuki work on a sequel to ARMS! You guys have created such a fascinating game with so much potential for both gameplay and lore. ARMS perfectly encapsulates what Nintendo is all about: creating new enjoyable experiences for everyone with a unique Nintendo twist. This game means so MUCH to me that I'm starting to lose sleep thinking about whether or not you'll give it a sequel! ARMS 2, PLEASE!
Yes please make an ARMS 2!!!!!
Ok Nintendo you win. Here is my wallet. Please be gentle.
"Please be gentle senpai~"
TippyCraft I told you to call me oni chan.
memoryguy9 Fantastic username.
I T P R I N T S M O N E Y
for eel?
Okay, I am now 100% sold on this game now. This looks amazing.
Min Min made it to the big league
It would seem the wildly successful Splatoon has officially set the new precedent on Nintendo's marketing strategy. Also, Splatoon at the end.
for those who say that Nintendo is just Mario and zelda
Rafael Etavíx I admit, I'm surprised at the dearth but Nintendo had to go all out anyway!!
Zombies Caffeine Kirby
Zombies Caffeine Splatoon is insanely popular in Japan.
"Who wouldn't want to cheer her" *votes for Master Mummy*
TheHairyOnion lol
11:47 Also known as the new Smash fighter. Damn, I knew it was her since the first second of the trailer. It's so great!
19:52 now we know what the guy at the end of the Grand Prix looks like and also like if you loved the global testpunch
A free demo and free content updates after the game is released? Shut up and take my money!
Chilly01234 And on top of that, basically all the games Nintendo put out are super-polished, haha!
PRAISE HELIX
Darca1n Did you forget 1-2 Switch?
+Unlocked Dreams he said POLISHED not GOOD.
But how can they take your money if it's free?
This game looks AWESOME! Not really many fighting games where I want to main EVERY character. Looks so good!
Blandrew "fighting game"
Blandrew I know right ! Maybe it is because its not a classic two side fighting game like mortal kombat or street fighter
Blandrew no joke there, though i think mechanica might be my type
Blandrew my main was originally Helix but now I'm the about robo cop and robo dog
I'm between using Big Mummy (because he looks OP), Min Min (Because she looks cool) or Twintelle (Because TwinTail arms are my dreamed superpower)
This comment thread makes no sense anymore since the fighter is min min lmao
🙋♀️ I'm team Min Min
I would like to see Dr.Coyle
How about Hedlok?
HELIX
Max Brass, Max Brass! Pec bounce!
4 years already, man does time fly.
THAT SOUNDTRACK THO
So how do we promote our new IP? How about the history of arms
Mattman 850 yeee
that is one way to promote a new ip. is it a good one? that is up to the person.
wtf two doug dimmadomes? two owners of the dimmsdale dimmadome?
What about blubber nuggets?
They're chewy
Who's here after the Min Min trailer?
Me lol
Yep
Me
Me, when she joins smash
Arms along with Splatoon really makes we wonder how Nintendo is so damn good at creating fun and unique universes for their games. So damn creative!
next we will probably be seeing ninjas wielding toy blocks soon XD
Waynetastic a year later and the accuracy of this comment scares me.
Waynetastic 0_o
@@dontevenblink7397 What game is it called
@@thestandthatcaneraseagiven6787 Ninjala
Evil Callie is the final boss of Splatoon 2, calling it now lol
Josh Nkwonta Oh dios mio
Josh Nkwonta that's exactly what I was thinking. it even looks like her in the shades at the end. marie went rebel
plus you can hear her (I think that's her)
why i can't escape homestuck...
I hope it's not Callie but an evil clone the Octariens made, Callie would never betray her cousin like that.
The game looks fun and all, but the volleyball and basketball mode are FREAKING AMAZING! Thank you Nintendo for keep making genuinely fun games.
I've always said that one of the things that makes me keep to a game for a while is its side-modes. Modes to go to when you're a little bored of the main event. Kirby games are normally pretty great for this, and ARMS definitely seems to have that down! Seriously, one of the only reasons I boot up Kirby Mass Attack still now is to play that pinball minigame. It's super good!
This might be odd to say, but id love to see a 3v3 capture the flag battle. Maps don't even have to be big at all!!!
This game had a lot of potential. Sadly nintendo never sought it. I agree with everyone when they say Arms should get a sequel.
I remember how hype this direct was, The bits of ost, the character reveals, the testpunch announcement and the mysterious 11th fighter at the end of it. I LOVE THIS GAME
I do hope we get an ARMS 2
@@curesaul5749 Same
I think it laid some good groundwork, but there was a lot of wasted potential. A sequel could definitely fix that, and this time with a longer support time from the devs.
@@connorp3764 Imo the devs wouldve supported it more if they werent forced to make mario kart tour
Okay, Okay. You got it. I'm now convinced to buy the game at launch day.
Rafael Smeers they had me at free updates
Rafael Smeers same
I already pre-order it
Preodered it when I got Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
If there all sold out
THE MUSIC IN THIS GAME IS GODLIKE
OJorgeO you are RIGHT YOU WIN 10000000000000000000000$!
Its not bad, but it's nothing special IMO
I got goosebumps from the last song
The ending one was "lalalalala dun dun dun dun dun dun"😂😅
HEYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
Games like these, where I'm sure to have hours of laughter and fun are the reason why I chose Nintendo over Sony
Hoho Gaming Sony sucks.
Alightminer 8TM bro that's a fricken lie.sony is amazing but that's your opinion......😒😒😒😒😒😒I love Nintendo as well
Hoho Gaming can you hear the console fanboys sing?
Hoho Gaming
good on you, man :3
Fun full game. Many fighters and arms. good variety of game modes. good multiplayer and free updates with new stuff? See Nintendo understands what a gamer wants. Why can't EA Ubisoft or any other company get it?
I WAS on the fence for this game. Now I WILL be getting this on day one. I hope the production quality of this Direct will be present at E3 this year. Well done Nintendo, well done.
I'm with you I really wanted some kind of adventure mode, but this won me over once I get my hands on a switch I am on board
This Nintendo Direct got me VERY excited :) I kept thinking "arms doesn't look like it'll be for me" but I was mesmerized by everything they showed for it. Looks fantastic.
Bayonetta + Urbosa = Twintelle
No its bayonetta + urbosa x movie star
Bayonetta + *T H I C C*
Not A Person, Are you implying that Bayonetta isn't Thicc?
Aleksi Juhola + zelda botw (for that extra thiccness)
Aren't you forgetting Cerebella?
14:53 *E X T R A T H I C C*
16:25 *E X T R A T H I C C*
This game deserved so much better. Disappointed that Nintendo abandoned this.
True
Nintendo..that was the best single focus direct you have ever done! My god I cannot wait for this GAME! (now I just need a switch)
you poor poor soul. may god have mercy on you. i know its hard but you will have one soon.
NEX Project - Art I don't Know That Early 2014 Smashbros One Was Pretty neat
NEX Project - Art My mother found a guy on Craigslist selling his for 320 with mario kart. I pray you can have the same luck.
Yep - that "Smash Bros" from April 2014 (the one where Charizard and Greninja were revealed at the end) is still the best, but this one for "Arms" is a close second, I think...
Biff needs to be hired as a full time commentator
Yeah, he can commentate on the game!
Little did ARMS know that a year later Min Min would get a win win in Smash Bros.... ✅
7:11 THERE'S MY DUDE!!!!!
Bendy Devil Kid Cobra is awesome! I use to main him along with Min Min back when the game first came out. I gotta pick him back up again!
Spring Man I know right? I use him all the time!
Can the Arms fanbase be called "Brothers in Arms"? Please?
Brotherhood of Mutants is better haha
King Koleyolis III why not "Armies"
Crystalitar is onto something. We are now the ARMY
I can tell that's Callie because the Laugh no offense Girls but that's how some of you laugh just in case I'm still being offense I respect girls and protect them with my life because they give life and boys and men can't so respect girls and women

It’s a sad day for us ARMS fans but let me say this. With every dark night comes a bright morning to a new day. We will see ARMS again. Just like how we saw ARMS get is Smash don’t sweat it. This isn’t the last time we see this world and these fighters. We may see a sequel. much like the ARMS world there are always mysteries on what will happen next.
I would cry bc of joy if they announce a sequel this E3. I really love this game but its near impossible to find even matches anymore.
@Antoine Gédéon I like Splatoon more. But I see ARMS as big potential that Nintendo sadly missed.
Anyone else notice that at 10:29 the Slamamander turns into a Revolver?
nope but now i do
This Direct actually convinced me to buy this game
Here's Parts of reasons why I want this game out of 100% 50%Min Min 50%Twintelle
Cobalt 1412 And 50% Ribbon Girl.
TWINTELLE THICC
but that makes it 150%
Kirby and Dedede Then 100% RIbbon Girl!
+Omari McKay-Laramore That's 150%
The woman that sings the theme for this game sounds like the same woman from that sings in Persona 5. She can sing. At 19:42, this made me think that she really did sing from persona 5
Only here to check out Arms for smash!!!
U and me both!
Yup
I can already tell Helix and Barq & Byte are going to be the characters you hope you don't run into when playing Ranked.
Canids Barq & byte aren't that powerful byte doesn't have any abilities and barq can be knocked out in one hit
Canids, for eel?
They said helix is really hard to master because of his strange ability, that is why he was getting destroyed in the tournament.
Canids And Master Mummy
Ninjara and Cobra Kid are the two that look like they're going to excel. Master Mummy and Barq & Byte seem like the "spammer-type" characters that newer people will play.
*Nintendo posts a Arms Direct *Fans expect Smash for Switch.
Lel, too true
Lil O 10 we need new ips, nintendo franchises like smash can wait
I still believe they're planning to reveal it when we least expect it. I don't get my hopes up, but I genuinely think something like that is going to happen.
Still waiting on that Smash 4 port. If they want the Switch to be taken seriously out the gate they're going to have to port it soon, or at least announce a port. I'm betting on an announcement around E3
GuyN0ir it's very likely. Smash is indisputably Nintendo's biggest franchise right now (barring Mario of course) and the new console wouldn't be whole without it.
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.
Kotten I want one where the charecter is literally ramen. And they fight with their noodles.
@@CristianMartinez-rg9sz ...Min Min?
Should Twintelle's "ARMS" be called HAIR?
Also when they showed the Thunderbird they missed the chance to say "It's *shockingly* effective!"
S1lverfang 1987 HAIR- Coming 2021
Hopefully Nintendo include Little Mac(from PunchOut series)as a secret unlockable character.
omg yes yes yes
*Lanky Kong
DareMan172?!?! and Rayman as a guest character.
DareMan172?!?! Why? He has no style and he has no grace.
DareMan172?!?! That would be awesome... Perhaps you could unlock him with his amiibo....
Twintelle instantly new ARMS fav. That sass and thiccness.
TheTwinny Min Min is still best girl in my opinion
The Hero 132 She's close, but right now I favor Ribbon~
TheTwinny She definitely caught everyone's attention
Tatsuo Static she didn't i like min min better
Who else wants Monkey D. Luffy as an unlock able character?
Isaac Lee NO IT SHOULD BE LITTLE MAC
I hope this game gets a sequel or at the very least paid DLC
I'm calling it now, there's going to be a ton of creepy fan art of arms, but especially Ribbon Girl
And Twintelle
And Helix
You are late. They started after the first trailer.
And Mecanica wait no
Ribbon Girl? Nah, it's going to be Twintelle.
Rip Etika's waifu Min Min (2017-2017)
rip in pastaroni 20XX-20XX
As soon as I saw Twintelle, I knew Minmin was getting the boot as Etika's waifu. Time to go watch his reaction, see if we're right.
lol, more like ramen noodles
he says he's going to be loyal to min min and resist the temptation, lets see if he stays true to word though.

Happy 3rd anniversary ARMS!!! 🤛🎉
They really made a game about the new smash DLC fighter.
Ikr?
Twintelle will be the ARMS version of Bayonetta
Gizmos Monster or gardevoir
Zalefolius Lizalfens I don't think you get it.
I am not like the other ARMS Fighters. I have Snake Arms
I wonder how many people will actually get this

HAHAHA!

Imagine BIFF had that human voice actually.
The music in this game is awesome. The acoustic choirs in the beginning (during "The Gift of ARMS" introduction) was lovely.
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?
I hope this game is gonna have a match replay system! To me there is nothing better than viewing your previous fights and seeing how awesome you were! (seriously, I'm freakin' praying here)
CamoKoopa182 You can! Go to GameXplain video on it.
Ilyas H. ALL OF MY YES!!!!!!
"They just woke up one mourning and BAM. Extendable arms" wow
Can someone *_PLEASE_* isolate the vocals in that intro? They were GODLIKE.
"The gift of arms" - Nintendo 2017
5.7/10 Not enough ARMS. If seriously, this game is amazing. It has a lot variety, also a great multiplayer.
And whoosh goes the joke
If ARMS doesn't grab your attention; the impending sequel LEGS will leave you restless.
Don't you mean, Splatoon?
Andres E. Gomez M. What?
There's not enough Splatoon 2 in this direct. Just Story Mode. I mean, this was mostly focused on ARMS but why not showing more of Splatoon 2?
"I was shocked at first, but having arms like this is actually pretty rad." ICONIC
"I was shocked at first, but having arms like this is actually pretty rad."
The character design is so colorful and over the top it makes Overwatch look like a safe attempt by comparison.
Wasn't sold on this game until now.
King Raptor Same
King Raptor Is it because of Twintelle?
King Raptor same, when I first saw the game I thought it was slow boxing, but it actually takes skill
NeoStrike .....maybe.....
I'm Excited For The ARMS Fighter Presentation Event It's 15 Days Until June 1st
Happy 7th anniversary for the ARMS nintendo direct. Hopefully one day nintendo will revisit this game and make an ARMS2
One day maybe. 😄

Hopefully it happens soon
The woman singing at the end tho
Anyone else loving the music style ARMS has?
Flarestorm Yes very much . 😊😊
Happy 5th anniversary, ARMS!
So... He says there are thousands of combos. With the 30 Arms we have seen, one on each side, have 900 combinations for one character. Multiply by 10 characters, and there are exactly 9000 combinations.
0w0 (yas, wait how do I choose? NOOOOOOOOOOOOO)
I want to be the first to say when the next character comes out "amount of combinations? ITS OVER 9000"
