I would settled for someone chanting "MVP! MVP! MVP!!!" ECW-style but this kid's hype levels give me hope for the rest of humanity to get their shit together
I will comment from Japan. Many Japanese users, including me, were delighted that the Dragon Quest hero was selected as the Super Smash Brothers Ultimate fighter. Some foreign users may have complaints or doubts why this character was chosen, but the dragon quest hero is a character with high popularity and popularity in Japan. We hope that you will be interested in Dragon Quest on this occasion and you will love it. By the way, I can not speak English, I have put the English translation of Japanese on English translation site
I've been calling for a dragon quest character for a little over before smash ultimate came out. The fact that it is very popular in Japan, was just a no brainer for Nintendo to include it. I have my preordered copy of dragon quest 11 for the switch and I'm hoping to enjoy the game. Banjo was completely out of left field, and I never saw that one coming. I'm super happy with the characters they have revealed so far. I'm hoping now for either rayman,resident evil, or ninja gaiden to somehow be included in smash.
I wish I was there because I would've also been yelling: "ITS THE LUMINARY!!" Also, to the man who knew it was Hero from the horse, You have my respect.
Yeah, I can't believe some people are actually disappointed about this. This reveal was so amazing. Dragon Quest is such an important franchise and seeing the protags from 3, 4, 8, and 11 was so mindblowing. I'm surprised at how people outside of Japan still don't know about the importance of Dragon Quest. That final smash is one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen.
@@davidsalazar2077 It was so good, dude. I got so hyped when I saw the 4 and 8 protags, since Erdrick and Luminary were leaked. I yelled out "It's all of them!" from the bathroom lol. Then actually seeing all of them in that final smash was glorious
I looked at it and thought "That's cool I guess". The most experience I had with these guys was through Fortune Street of all games. But I do acknowledge do to the legacy of that franchise I suppose thr inclusion in Smash makes sense. The only Dragon Quest character I know is Angelo and it's certainly for the wrong reasons actually. Let's just say this group on CZcams who played Fortune Street once probably ruined the character for me. xD
Dragon quest is legitimately my favorite rpg series. I was going nuts when I saw all the protagonist from every other dragon quest appear in the final smash.
I've only gotten my feet wet by playing Dragon Quest 9 on the DS, but I am extremely interested in Dragon Quest 11 on the Switch, and possibly even Dragon Quest 8 on the 3DS. They're great games that any JRPG fan should experience at least once. If you have a 3DS, iirc, you can even play every single mainline game with that alone.
@@zdenshadowdragonbyzideodi8819 tecnically not, even tho we don't have him as a character, toriyama created the dragon quest characters, but that dosen't mean we have goku in the game, and he will never be, we have dragon quest, so we don't have goku in the game, we have toriyama in the game.
@@zdenshadowdragonbyzideodi8819 you Ok? You sound mad, i get it, you are greatfull and all about the dragon quest, if you feel its like goku join smash, that's Fine, but, did you actually needed to write the final part? I mean. For real? Dude got mad?
There is some light in this darkness, I could say. Most posts I saw on social media were the same, old “I sleep, real shit” meme. But I also saw a couple of wholesome fan art of Banjo and Hero.
Eh I wouldn't say they care that much. I'm sure there were fans of Dragon Quest there but honestly if they announced a toilet to be in smash everyone would still be hyped
Dude, you could put a fucking apple on a green-screen with the Smash logo and they'd cheer. They aren't hyped at all, they'll just nut at anything revealed because it's hype and hyping Smash is what cool kids do.
this trailer always brings a tear of joy for me. I never thought id see erdrick from dw3 for so long. I had always imagined hed look something like this while playing on the snes. it makes me cry.
This makes me happy. I lost it when I saw this trailer but was disappointed to see that many fans were somehow disappointed by it, probably because many of them are unfamiliar with the Dragon Quest franchise in general. This is a HUGE deal, and it's great to know that the Nintendo World Store audience appreciated what they saw. Nintendo fans, if you've never played a Dragon Quest game, do yourself a favor and give XI S a chance in September.

today pleased both the Japanese fans and the American fans. DQ for Japan because that shit is super popular there....and then we got banjo and that excitement shows how much we still love banjo, and not sure how the Japanese reacted to it but im sure they are happy.
Thank you. I've been looking around for people who actually understand how big of a deal this is. It blows my mind that people were disappointed by this. Best part of the whole Direct for me.
Honestly, I was a bit more bummed out at the Banjo trailer than this. Dragon Quest deserves some proper respect and now it's finally getting it. Things are looking bleak for KH tho oof
@@anthonyward2208 Yeah it is. It came out everywhere else last year and Switch is the only one it's not out on. Though, the Switch version will be the best with the orchestrated soundtrack and better support since Nintendo has always loved the series and has been always willing to publish it overseas, no matter how rough its sales got.
I'm glad they made other skins for just one character, like they did for Bowser Jr. Villager, etc. I mean sure it's all the same character moveset, but I think people in general just appreciate having different character models even if it's one character, rather than just different colored outfits.
Hirogan berries Hence his inclusion. It’s no coincidence a new Dragon Quest trailer was shown directly after Hero’s reveal in smash. It’s a cross promotion, and if rumors are true, this is the byproduct of Cloud’s return in Ultimate. Dragon Quest exposure in Smash was supposedly a bargaining chip on Nintendo’s to ensure Cloud would return.
@Solidus Guerrero That reminds me of that trailer when they revealed Belmont. Luigi had the new poltergust with a plunger to shoot with such hinted Luigi's Mansion 3.

What are you talking about dragon quest 11 has sold more than fire emblem treehouse even here in the West. It's a franchise that had no representation besides so it's not that strange
All these lack luster reactions to the main hero’s in dragon quest being in smash I’m glad these guys get it.

I understand that not everyone will know all the sagas and video game franchises, Dragon Quest is more popular in Japan but lately it has gained more popularity thanks to the eleventh game and the appearance of the hero in Smash. Even though the Smash ads are over, it always bothered me to see the apathetic people who looked down on certain characters just because they didn't know them, saying they were "not important." This industry is very big, so big that there are still characters who were left out.

Yeah, I have a friend who had never heard of Simon before, but she was like "well I'm eager to find out more about him!" And honestly that's the attitude more people should have.
DragonQuest is a franchise I can wholeheartedly respect! Even though I've never played a DragonQuest game...at all. They made their mark in Japan; about time we showed them some more love in the U.S! Plus, I'm a sucker for sword fighting players! So...I'll be giving the Links a bit of a break! What are your thoughts on the franchise? Curious to know.
@@TheInevitableBum lol, no it's not. It's completely overhyped and Akira Toriyama is so revered that they literally made the final boss cell/jiren and nobody dared to tell him otherwise. Somebody also tell that "legendary composer" he ain't shit and needs to put more music in the game. I'm not a hater, I'm a critic who loves JRPGs. Persona 5 won me over, this game did not. Stop blindly falling for trending things you absolute lemming.
I've been curious to try it for a long time. The direct earlier this year got me even more interested, the presentation for square's e3 had me thinking I needed to at least try 11, this inclusion is telling me I have no choice but to try it.
The man right next to the camera absolutely obliterating his vocal chords has ascended to the celestial plane - I’m still dying over this amazing hype clip.
see?! this is the reaction that everyone should’ve had. dragon quest is a really important series, and it’s way more popular than banjo in like every country other than the us. people need to stop whining, the hero is hype. (but rip to all my fellow sora supporters lol)
The Dragon Quest games offer little of substance and don't take enough risks from a narrative perspective. For someone that wrote Chrono Trigger, Yuji Hori's take on DQXI was abysmal. The music got old VERY quickly as well. Two stellar games where simply moving the character(s) is more fun than the entirety of a stale franchise is why people for two decades wanted the charming character(s) with a name, rather than a copy paste sword user simply known as "Hero". The opinions of an island of tasteless people who fear innovation and creativity have nothing on a simple yet charming platformer.
@@nothingtoseehere6142 Just so you know I can generalize shit too. Why should anyone care about Banjo? They only had like 2 games and a terrible third game. It was so many years ago. See? Dragon Quest is the OG rpg. It deserves it spot in smash especially how popular it is in japan
@@theexaltedlt8222 highly agree. I don't care for banjo and kazooie's inclusion. Microsoft isn't going to do anything with them anytime soon. Banjo and kazooie only had two good games according to fans, one of you ask me. On top of that they haven't had a new game since 2008 and that game wasn't even a platformer like the other ones. The first is one of my favorite games ever, but nothing about their inclusion is exciting to me. I would bet if banjo and kazooie had never been on a nintendo console, no one would be asking for them. P.S. i bet the same thing for waluigi. I mean who actually cares for him? He's a meme and the core reason people want him is because he's a mario rep. He would bring nothing exciting to the table.
RIP Keyblade guy! I wanted Sora in Smash too, but I had resigned to the fact that he wasn't getting in over a Dragon Quest character, and I'm just exited that Banjo made it in. Plus tbh, The Hero looks pretty cool.
Everybody is talking about the crowd actually caring but are we just gonna mention that this trailer basically spoiled Galeem’s echo fighter (don’t think could spell it right) at the beginning?
I was actually more excited for Eldrick than Banjo-Kazooie. I wanted that guy in Smash for so long ever since I got into the series and this is just amazing. Richter and Eldrick in the same Smash that has everyone. No longer have the right to request anyone. If they do add another one of my choices this time around, it'd have to be Goemon or Arle. And even if it's the next game, I have no faith either of these characters will make it. Honestly, I feel very happy for Japanese fans. I'm sure they've wanted Dragon Quest in Smash for years. I have too.
I didn’t really want Erdrick but I really did want the Dragon Quest 8 protagonist (red bandana) even though I thought it was impossible... LOL wow I’m happy
Eldrick pretty much is the face of Dragon Quest, since the first three games were centered around him. I already had the feeling there would be alt costumes to represent the other games, but disappointed to find out they omitted the female variants from III and IV.
I saw the trailers for KH Dark Road and Melody of Memory! I started to scream when I saw the Switch logo!!!!! "I've been having these weird thoughts lately. Like, is any of this for real? Or not?" -KH1

Straight up!
The guy that is hyped and keeps yelling DRAGON QUEST ELEVEN!! and THE LUMINARY!!
Is so jollly that is contagious 😃
0:02
the guy with the keyblade sure got what he wanted now..
The one dood who said ITS THE LUMINARY is very smart. But all the reactions we're awesome
DragonQuest is a franchise I can wholeheartedly respect! Even though I've never played a DragonQuest game...at all. They made their mark in Japan; about time we showed them some more love in the U.S! Plus, I'm a sucker for sword fighting players! So...I'll be giving the Links a bit of a break!
What are your thoughts on the franchise? Curious to know.
^Don't listen to this idiot
It's a great franchise, and you should look into getting the newest one once it comes to the Switch if you're interested.
Great franchise. Definitely recommend trying it.
@@TheInevitableBum lol, no it's not. It's completely overhyped and Akira Toriyama is so revered that they literally made the final boss cell/jiren and nobody dared to tell him otherwise. Somebody also tell that "legendary composer" he ain't shit and needs to put more music in the game. I'm not a hater, I'm a critic who loves JRPGs. Persona 5 won me over, this game did not. Stop blindly falling for trending things you absolute lemming.
@Kush Man your just mad that Spongebob Squarepants didn't get in
I've been curious to try it for a long time. The direct earlier this year got me even more interested, the presentation for square's e3 had me thinking I needed to at least try 11, this inclusion is telling me I have no choice but to try it.
This was one of my favorite reveals because it just kept on giving
Guy in crowd: IT'S TRUNKS
1:54 I think about how popular VIII was in USA & EU, it makes me so happy to hear the crowd pop off for Eight
The man right next to the camera absolutely obliterating his vocal chords has ascended to the celestial plane - I’m still dying over this amazing hype clip.
see?! this is the reaction that everyone should’ve had. dragon quest is a really important series, and it’s way more popular than banjo in like every country other than the us. people need to stop whining, the hero is hype.
(but rip to all my fellow sora supporters lol)
The Dragon Quest games offer little of substance and don't take enough risks from a narrative perspective. For someone that wrote Chrono Trigger, Yuji Hori's take on DQXI was abysmal. The music got old VERY quickly as well. Two stellar games where simply moving the character(s) is more fun than the entirety of a stale franchise is why people for two decades wanted the charming character(s) with a name, rather than a copy paste sword user simply known as "Hero". The opinions of an island of tasteless people who fear innovation and creativity have nothing on a simple yet charming platformer.
@@nothingtoseehere6142 Just so you know I can generalize shit too. Why should anyone care about Banjo? They only had like 2 games and a terrible third game. It was so many years ago. See?
Dragon Quest is the OG rpg. It deserves it spot in smash especially how popular it is in japan
@@theexaltedlt8222 highly agree. I don't care for banjo and kazooie's inclusion. Microsoft isn't going to do anything with them anytime soon. Banjo and kazooie only had two good games according to fans, one of you ask me. On top of that they haven't had a new game since 2008 and that game wasn't even a platformer like the other ones. The first is one of my favorite games ever, but nothing about their inclusion is exciting to me.
I would bet if banjo and kazooie had never been on a nintendo console, no one would be asking for them.
P.S. i bet the same thing for waluigi. I mean who actually cares for him? He's a meme and the core reason people want him is because he's a mario rep. He would bring nothing exciting to the table.
@@davidsalazar2077 I'm not trying to elevate either one, just stating my honest opinion.
update im equally hyped for both hero and banjo guys it ain’t that deep
Playing the game makes me really appreciate this even more
As a dragon quest fan this made my heart sing. I love the reaction, I was so worried it would be lack luster. I was wrong
The Guy with a keyblade Predicted the future....
日本のゲームって本当にすごいなってこういうの見ると改めて思うわー
確かに
でも一番凄いのはドラクエのようなメジャーゲームを参戦させたり厳しいと思われていたバンカズを参戦させ世界を笑顔にした櫻井だと思う
や櫻井No.1
My mans was yelling "It's the Luminary" like the world depended on it and I fucking love it.
i mean we did get the luminary, he was correct
Just thinking of the Smash announcer saying "The Hero" dramatically is really funny.
Hopefully the names will change with the alts
The name for all 4 of them will just be “Hero”
@@mowloughtheawesome7735 aw damnit i really wanted to hear "Erdrick!"
“The hero?”
Im imagining him saying "Hero!" Like the guy from Sky high.
Me before playing Dragon Quest XI: who are you?
After playing both hero and Dragon Quest XI: I’ve always been the biggest fan of Dragon Quest
The Prophecy has been fulfilled. Long Live The Hero! 🏰
It’s incredible and makes me so happy to see that people still love and care for this series, even in the states where it’s so much lesser known
The Hero Draws near!って日本語版でいう「勇者が あらわれた!」なんだよね…
エモすぎる
0:29 I love the guy who keeps screaming *𝙇𝙐𝙈𝙄𝙉𝙀𝙍𝙀 𝙄𝙏'𝙎 𝙇𝙐𝙈𝙄𝙉𝙀𝙍𝙀 𝘿𝙍𝘼𝙂𝙊𝙉 𝙌𝙐𝙀𝙎𝙏 𝙀𝙇𝙀𝙑𝙀𝙉* he deserves a gold medal for that
Absolutely loved it but jeez that guy screaming oh shit repeatedly next to the mic got obnoxious real quick.
Yeah, but I'm just glad there are more people who are actually happy they're in instead of disappointment or just dismissive
It's a hyped crowd, let him enjoy the reveal.
I know I'm late but I love that guy that enthusiasm is so contagious
We just need THE BUILDER FROM DRAGON QUEST BUILDERS NOW TO JOIN THE BATTLE!!!!!
Now that we went that way then cant we add steve from minecraft while were at it.
RIP Keyblade guy! I wanted Sora in Smash too, but I had resigned to the fact that he wasn't getting in over a Dragon Quest character, and I'm just exited that Banjo made it in. Plus tbh, The Hero looks pretty cool.
John Berchmans you can blame Disney for sora not In smash
DID THE KEYBLADE GUY DIE?!
Guess what
Everybody is talking about the crowd actually caring but are we just gonna mention that this trailer basically spoiled Galeem’s echo fighter (don’t think could spell it right) at the beginning?
Mayumi Nakajima if you played ultimate and didn’t know who he was before then you shouldn’t really care
Idk why but I'm getting goosebumps because of this reveal trailer
The girls in the back like “lol look at these nerds” 😭😂
Its so heart warming to see so many people cheering together for the hero
I was actually more excited for Eldrick than Banjo-Kazooie. I wanted that guy in Smash for so long ever since I got into the series and this is just amazing. Richter and Eldrick in the same Smash that has everyone. No longer have the right to request anyone.
If they do add another one of my choices this time around, it'd have to be Goemon or Arle. And even if it's the next game, I have no faith either of these characters will make it.
Honestly, I feel very happy for Japanese fans. I'm sure they've wanted Dragon Quest in Smash for years. I have too.
An old comment but how did you feel about Goemon getting a Mii costume?
God I love how they revealed Erdrick barely visible but you could tell it was him.
Everyone at Instagram was so toxic about Dragon Quest
Honestly, what do we expect from salty Western Smash fans?
And Twitter
Every time I watch this I feel for the guy immediately recognizing the Luminary.
I'm happy for him every time I see this
I didn’t really want Erdrick but I really did want the Dragon Quest 8 protagonist (red bandana) even though I thought it was impossible... LOL wow I’m happy
i know , the hero from dq8 was just a dream til erdrick was leaked
Eldrick pretty much is the face of Dragon Quest, since the first three games were centered around him. I already had the feeling there would be alt costumes to represent the other games, but disappointed to find out they omitted the female variants from III and IV.
Carbuncle from Puyo Puyo yeah no female alt at all is a strange choice tbh
Carbuncle from Puyo Puyo Well technically the first three were centered around him and his descendants
His name is literally "Eight".
SSB is becoming the greatest character crossover game of all time!
No.......it IS the greatest crossover game of all time!
im pretty sure it already was from the moment it was born
the heroとか英訳かっこよすぎ
Gotta love how the guy holding up the Keyblade puts it down once he realizes it's not sora.
Poor bastard.
Nuh Uh. Sora finally got revealed for smash. That “poor bastard” finally got his wish.
I couldn't focus on anything else in the entire direct after that. Dragon Quest is incredible, but has a depressingly weak footing in America...
Cosmic Corgi I agree, along with it coming to the switch this September
Dragon Quest > Elder Scrolls 😤

Who said Goku couldn't get in smash again?
@@FuzeFire Play Dragon Quest XI, he's definitely Trunks.
@@rtmushroom9454 sakurai
Love how the screaming got twice as loud when Eight appeared
Holy crap, Android 17 made it in!
So did Goten!
AND pan
I think a grand total of 1 person knew about Dragon Quest in that room, yet the crowd reaction was still somehow more hype than Byleth's reveal lmao.
Sakuri - The Hero of Dragon Quest will be in Smash
Fans - Which one?
Sakuri - ...yes.
"LUMINARY! LUMINARY! THE LUMINARY!" lmao
I mean it was the luminary, he was correct.
Was unfazed by both reveals but I know for sure DQ was justified
banjo is overrated and DQ is still kinda unknown in the US
@@rolando3734 Square enix has been pushing it to the US lately
I was that guy with the Keyblade for literally every direct. I need KH on Switch.
Maybe once the directs are no longer dead.
Your wish has been granted :)
It is on Switch now???
@@annagrace2604 Yes its called KH: Melody of Memories. So, Sora chances of joining Smash are more likely than ever.
I saw the trailers for KH Dark Road and Melody of Memory! I started to scream when I saw the Switch logo!!!!!
