Definitely one of the biggest surprises. I never thought Project Sora would've had anything to do with Kid Icarus!

Oh dear God, I hope that VO isn't too prevalent in the game.  HORRIBLE.
 
Otherwise, looks cool.

Nintendo looks like they have got it going on this E3.  Another title that I look forward to in their line up. Although not too into the voice acting.

I was never fond of the original Kid Icarus, and I'm still amazed by this footage and the idea that a new Kid Icarus game is freakin' real.

As I was watching this I kind of forgot I was looking at a game for a handheld. Really impressive stuff and only going to get better as devs get more time with the hardware.

Wow.  DS graphics seem to go all out for this title.  I thought this was a Wii game at first at thought it was the ugliest thing I saw.  I'm more impressed when I see that it is a DS game...

yeah I thought it was a bad Wii game at first, perhaps the 3DS may prove worthy after all.

Looks great. Graphics seem nice for a portable. Gameplay seems a bit like starfox to me, but it could be better (though, starfox is a good thing to be compared to.)

 
Only concern of mine is the voice acting.

Well, I'm glad to see that Pit finally got another game and the game itself looks pretty good overall (although from all the 'snarky' comments Pit makes I'm a bit worried that Nintendo is trying to essentially turn him into their version of Sonic personality-wise). 
 
The only thing I'm disappointed in is that it looks like an entirely different game from the original Kid Icarus (which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but it's sort of like if Nintendo had given us Metroid Prime without Fusion and Zero Mission, so it would be nice if it turns out to at least have a few segments similar to the older games).
