Nintendo Direct 10.21.2011 - Reggie Fils-Aime Presents Nintendo Updates 

They actually talked about Shrek in the first Nintendo Direct. This is amazing

Can't believe it's been 10 years since Reggie said, "what's wrong with you?". Granted this is also the first Direct. Man, look how far we've all come!

"if you are neither one yet, whats wrong with you?" *3DS Sales rate rises to 100%*

0:27 if your neither one... whats wrong with you Reggie-2011

2:53the ONLY time you will here any nintendo worker say “shrek”

RIP Satoru Iwata. We will miss you.

...so this was the first ever Nintendo Direct? wow... the format has come a looong way since then.

this is, what started it all. The rumors The leaks the hype the reactions the livestreams nintendos own "one more thing" so many tears of joy so many disappointments

I like how it is so simple. No music, no intro, no sound effects. Very "Direct"

These went from talking about some random Shrek trailer to being some of the most hyped events in Nintendo's history. Happy 10 years.

God it is so weird coming back in Sept. 2019 and seeing how it all started. I actually forgot that the "What's wrong with you?" meme started here. Directs have definitely come a long ways and now this type of format is becoming the industry standard. Nintendo was really ahead of the time with this one.

Where it all began. lol, they mentioned freaking Shrek.

9 years since this direct. So many countless memories of the 3DS. Now my childhood is about to come to an end. Thank you, Iwata, and Reggie, for helping to make some of the most timeless games and memories from my childhood. Rest in Peace, Iwata. We all miss you.

This is such a legendary piece of Nintendo history.

May Iwata rest in peace, and may Reggie retire in peace.

WE'LL MISS YOU REGGIE

Happy 10 year anniversary to Nintendo directs yall We’ve come so damn far oh my lord-

It’s still unbelievable how this was exactly 10 years ago today… all of the memories, the leaks, the rumours, and predictions for the future started with this 7 minute video. *Time flies, bro..*

who’s here on the 10th anniversary of the first direct

If Gamexplain didn't remind us, we may not all be here right now for directs 10th anniversary.

This era was so calming in comparison to what‘s going on these days.

Reminder that the first nintendo direct announcement was hulu on Wii and 3DS

0:30 What's wrong with you?

So this is where it all began...

10th Anniversary Let's Goo

Me: Watches this in 2019 Reggie: What's wrong with you?

>October 21, 2011 Good lord, its been that long since the first Nintendo Direct aired?

whos here on the 10th anniversary?

It’s so cool looking back at these older directs and seeing how different the Nintendo directs are from now and then, having my favorite games being newly announced. The nostalgia is here.

Godspeed, Reggie. May your body always be ready.

Anybody else watching this after watching Sony's first State of Play for comparison? No? Just me? ok

Happy 10th anniversary Nintendo direct. Iwata would be very proud of the switch's success and the future of Nintendo in 2022.

Happy Ten Years Nintendo Direct!

Dont you find it ironic Skyward Sword wasnt out yet during the first Nintendo Direct, and yet they just announced it 10 years later for 60$

10 years of Nintendo directs

Hulu coming to Wii and 3DS was legit the first ever Nintendo Direct announcement lol

A decade ever since the first Nintendo direct

HAPPY 10TH ANNIVERSARY NINTENDO DIRECT

It's been ten whole years Can't believe the first thing they announced was Hulu Plus

We’ve come a long way... Today, Nintendo Direct is one of the most hype event on the internet

Man I miss Reggie’s humor. Hope he’s enjoying retirement though. But wow, 10 years of Nintendo Directs. And this was the first. Amazing to see where it started vs where we’re at now.

The first Nintendo Direct, oh my god !

2021 = 10 YEARS LATER!!!!

Nintendo Directs are the equivalent of the Nintendo Power promotional VHS tapes(anyone still remember those).

When this was uploaded Skyward Sword wasn't released yet. Now, Skyward Sword HD is a month away, and Breath of the Wild 2 is on its way. Time really flies.

10 years ago the Hype train left the station and we have come a long way have we?

0:30 My reaction to people who think the Xbox One is the best video game console ever and the Wii U is horrible.

0:27 IM TRYING TO GET ONE REGGIE! edit: oh i got one btw

Happy 10th anniversary for Nintendo Directs.

that man has the shiniest chin i have ever seen

10 years. What a ride.

10 Years Later And Still Iconic 🌈🌠

I remember watching these on the eShop.. goooood times. Another one I remember (kinda obscure) is "Nintendo Show 3D"

The one that started it all.

10 years. It’s crazy to think how long it’s been and how well it’s kept up (for the most part). Can’t wait to see what’ll come in the next decade.

I can’t believe that it has been 10 YEARS since the first Nintendo direct. So many great games have been announced through these directs. Most importantly they talk about Shrek in the first one.

Wait you’re telling me skyward sword was after the 3ds was released?

10 years huh? leaving my mark to come back for the 20th

The first ever Nintendo Direct is a real good one.

It’s been a long ten years

10 Years of the greatest Nintendo presentations!

10 years on this faithful day and man, I had whiplash when they were showing off Skyward Sword on the Wii. Time has gone by so fast.

The first Nintendo direct: 7 minutes The Latest one: 46 minutes

*10 Years!!!*

The 1st Nintendo Direct, where it all began. Wow, time flies.

I don't know why I'm watching this 11 years later

Ten long years have come and gone, and yet, I still miss Reggie. Happy 10th anniversary to the very first Nintendo Direct that started it all!

someone here in 2020?

Who is here after E3 died? I found the source lol

Just coming here to see where it all began. It’s very different from directs now obviously. But it’s still really cool to see where directs began

10 years since the very first direct. Man I feel old and I'm not even 20 yet.

8 years later, Directs are still around, and so is the Nintendo 3DS

good times 🥺 can't believe this was 10 years ago wow

Happy 10th Birthday, Nintendo Direct.

Pretty hard to believe that it's been 10 years since the very first Nintendo Direct. We've sure have gone a long ways since then

"No Patrick, this doesn't mean that Shrek will be in Smash"

Watching every nintendo direct ever #1

This is in my reccomended 10 years later, neat

Since this year will mark the 10th anniversary of the directs. I wonder Nintendo is finally gonna make a new one on that October 21st date. All of us are awaiting for that glorious return someday.

Who’s here after watching the first PlayStation “direct” and agrees that this still beats it?

The beginning of a seamless format

10 years later. Still Awesome!

10 years ago today, history was made.

Reggie:"Hulu Plus is coming soon to 3DS!!"; 3 years later: WHERE'S MY HULU PLUS??????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Shrek x Michael Jackson x pumped up kicks x Nintendo

Here for NX

Mario 3D Land, Mario Kart 7, and Skyward Sword. What an impressive holiday lineup.

Why is his chin so shiny

Ten years, wow. Still miss reggie! Also, What’s Wrong With You?

I'm Here because the direct of 6/08 was cancelled

Oh my gosh this was so long ago that they were still supporting the Wii. Although, it WAS a 5 year old console at the time, so it makes sense.

5 years of Nintendo Directs.... What's Wrong with you?

first takes of anything are always rough and its crazy to see how different directs are now

Damn, now I know I’m getting old because I remember this Nintendo Direct like it was yesterday.

One of a kind shrek characters

This is nearly 10 years old

the start of an era

Happy 10 years

Where has the time went?
