Kid Icarus To Return Alongside 3DS Launch

I missed the conference, did they hint at a price or a date?

Why does the sinister dude in the second screenshot have a Metroid for a head?

Holy shit, that game looks better than half of all Wii games. That, alongside glasses-less 3D? If it has a respectable battery life, it just proves that Nintendo is still full of wizards.

Looks cool I guess. Though the dialog seems really bad.

This is sex in motion.

This could prove to be the greatest handheld of all time! I know, that pretty much applies to every handheld Nintendo releases, but that can't be a bad thing!

I don't understand the love for Kid Icarus that has had people lusting over a sequel for the last 20 years or so. I played the NES game, but I don't know why people so desperately want a modern day take on it. Can someone fill me in?

I thought this was a Wii game for a second there, pretty cool.

What is this? A repost?! 
 
I stand by my original comment: I thought this would never happen.

The 3DS was so goddamn shiny and sparkly.
 
Me wantee!!

yay

The first title to make its public debut on the Nintendo 3DS this afternoon wasn't Animal Crossing. Instead, Nintendo featured Kid Icarus: Uprising, which is in development at Project Sora under Masahiro Sakurai's watchful eyes.

Uprising is being described as an "action-packed" blend of ground and aerial shooter combat with easy-to-master controls. The game will see the return of Pit who alongside the goddess Palutena, must beat back the Medusa's dreaded underworld army. It feels like 1987 all over again, right?
