 Hey everyone, welcome back to Nintendo Prime, we got a few things I want to talk about today. The first one being a supposed retail leak for Persona 5 for Nintendo Switch, we're going to go over that. I also want to sort of revisit something that Shigemio Moto said five years ago. It's about a particular game that he confirmed was in development that we haven't heard from since and I think it's important we remember this as we head into yet another Nintendo Direct highly likely by the end of this month. Also I have an announcement to make on a new giveaway, a new giveaway that's going to happen when we hit 80, no I'm going to go over when, I was going to say if, when we hit 80 thousand subscribers I have an extremely exciting giveaway that we're going to launch when we hit that mark. I can't wait to get all of you guys in. It's going to be absolutely insane, it's going to be crazy and I know that you're going to be really, really excited. So the first thing that we got to talk about though of course is a little bit of news here, right? It's getting to the news and Persona 5 for Nintendo Switch. So on the website, WOG.CH, this is obviously a foreign retail website. It has Persona 5R, you know the game just announced for Xbox at the Xbox with the showcase right? They did 3, 4, Golden and you know Persona 5R, Persona 5R being the first one coming out. It obviously has opened the door to Persona heading to other platforms as well, previously just on Sony. So Nintendo has gotten other side versions of Persona but never the main games and this retailer has it listed for, for Nintendo Switch. Now what's really interesting obviously you look at the box art and the box art on this website, the art's a little cut off but the art's a little cut off on all the versions on literally the official website. Maybe that's just what the box art is going to be or maybe it's all just place holders. I don't know, all I know is this is an actual retail website that you can literally go in pre-order for Persona 5R for Nintendo Switch right now. Will it ever come out? Will this be something announced at the Nintendo Direct? I don't know but it's just worth noting that hey this is something out there at this specific retailer, maybe they're leaking this early, maybe it's a bunch of made up bullshit. I don't know. What isn't made up is something Shigeru Miyamoto said five years ago. So you guys remember the Pikmin franchise right? We got Pikmin 3 Deluxe on Switch you know a few years back and honestly Pikmin franchise has been kind of left alone ever since. We did get Hey Pikmin back in the 3DS and this confused some people because back in 2015 Shigeru Miyamoto essentially said the next Pikmin game is basically done or almost done. And then we ended up getting Hey Pikmin on 3DS which was not the game that we were expecting and maybe people were like well maybe that's the game he was talking about but there's a quote actually from 2017 at E3 after Hey Pikmin came out. So Hey Pikmin's already out the door. Can't be talking about that one where he was asked specifically an interview about the next Pikmin game and here let me refresh your memory and what Shigeru Miyamoto said. I've been told not to say anything by PR but I can tell you it's progressing and this was on the next Pikmin game. Now we know Miyamoto has had his hands full he's been working on the Mario movie and helping launch you know new amusement parks for Nintendo so obviously you know Miyamoto is busy doing a lot of things but this was five years ago that he told us after Hey Pikmin came out that a new Pikmin game is in the works. So yes the fabled Pikmin 4 is something that Nintendo potentially has done it could just drop whenever they feel like it so I'm just bringing this up not because I'm expecting to see Pikmin 4 but it's been five years so it kind of feels like something we could maybe hear about soon it also feels like a nice game that they could announce now and drop a few months later so I don't know just setting the table that maybe we're about to get a little bit of Pikmin love. Now let's get into the last thing I want to talk to talk today. We just came off Prime Gaming Fest six day event June 9th through June 14th had a lot of fun with that gave away thousands and thousands and thousands of dollars with the stuff it was absolutely insane you guys were amazing and someone brought to my attention that we're actually approaching 80,000 subscribers I hadn't paid a ton of attention to the subscriber count in some time just because you know you can go a little insane as a YouTuber if you're just watching the subscriber numbers go up and down up and down every single day so I can't know my attention that during Prime Gaming Fest we obviously hit 79.1 thousand subscribers which kind of sort of solidified that we're highly likely not going to be dropping below sorry 79 78.1 thousand subscribers which solidified that we're probably not going to drop below 78,000 the rest of the year which made me realize how close we really are you know we launched our podcast channel this year and we're already almost at 3,000 subscribers on that channel and we're less than the subscribers of that channel away from getting to 80,000 on our main channel here at Nintendo Prime and I've been marking our milestones for a while by doing some sort of giveaway event and I wanted to do something extra special for 80,000 now we're not starting this giveaway until we hit 80,000 so I'm not setting it up now you can't enter this giveaway right now but you can once we get to 80,000 so this is the first time you've seen an Nintendo Prime video and you're really enjoying what you see I would appreciate it if you would subscribe so what are we going to give away well we're going to give away three prizes so there will be three separate winners we're going to give away a life size replica Hylian Shield a life size replica Deku Shield and by the way we're also going to give away a life size replica Master Sword from Breath of the Wilds it's going to be based on Breath of the Wild have a little wear and tear on the hilt and stuff but it will be a metal sword so there will be some limitations on the sword I will not be able to ship the sword internationally that's just there's a lot of restrictions with weapon shipments but I will be able to ship the Hylian Shield and the Deku Shield pretty much anywhere in the world so for the most part this is going to be a giveaway for everybody because I know we have fans from all over the world and I want to make sure all of you have a chance to win something who knows maybe I'm able to pile in a few extra giveaways from some partners and stuff I can't promise any of that I am obviously purchasing the shield and and the shield both shields and the sword myself it's going to you know it's not going to be cheap but you guys are worth it and I just wanted to commemorate us hitting 80,000 subscribers in a way that it's just really really cool and who knows maybe we'll do a fun streaming event around 80,000 as well and just have a lot of fun with it it's going to be a really neat time time if and when we get there and obviously next up the next major milestone will be 90,000 and yes we will have something special for that and then we'll have you know a really really extra special celebration if we somehow get to 100,000 so even if we hit 80 you know and you know okay let me just see how this goes hey just keep on subscribing because the giveaways and the celebrations and my thankfulness to the community it's only going to grow and grow the bigger that we grow I believe big time and giving back to my community raising money for charity and just shooting this shit about video games you know this is a channel that is intended for over 18 a Nintendo channel that's not a trying to appeal to everyone huh kind of a strange concept in a world where so many channels are trying to be family conscious and we're just like you know what I am a dad I'm also in my mid 30s I spend enough time being you know family friendly with my family I want to just be myself here at this channel and part of myself is actually just being so appreciative of all of you so even though we just did a big giveaway event maybe another giveaway event is on the horizon maybe we get there before the end of this month maybe we don't get there until July or August or so I have no idea but you guys will ultimately decide that all of you new viewers out there I hope that you really enjoy the content and you choose to stick around long past our 80,000 subscriber giveaway event not just because there's more giveaway events coming up but because I think we actually have a really great community and I want to keep growing and fostering that community and as does my dog fun fact as we give away a couple Zelda items my dog is actually named after the link in the Legend of Zelda franchise isn't that right link come here buddy come here buddy link link up he's a good boy all right guys we'll catch you in the next video
