Plenty Of New Kid Icarus Uprising Information From Nintendo Power

The latest edition of Nintendo Power contains a wealth of new and exciting information for the forthcoming Kid Icarus: Uprising on the Nintendo 3DS. There’s far too much information to post on the site, but if you want to read all the new information there’s a great round-up of the Kid Icarus: Uprising content from Nintendo Power on NeoGaf.

  • Ground locations include a medieval castle and an interstellar space-pirate vessel
  • Fight with projectile attacks
  • Can hide behind pillars/rubble
  • Close-range melee combos
  • Dash attacks
  • Can take your time to explore in these sections
  • Lots of hidden treasures
  • Secret life-restoring hot springs
  • “levels are frantically paced and full of surprises”
  • Sakurai calls this “escalating the situation”; piling action on top of action to keep players off-balance and engaged
  • Vehicle example: Exo Tank
  • Grinding gameplay made possible by Palutena’s magical rails

            lol, he didn’t drop the f bomb, he’s talking about the name he gave himself: “Firstfag”

            You, sir, are clearly not the next Einstein.

            Plus, I bet you’re a fag, because you had no reason to feel offended.
            (woops, I dropped the f bomb.. fuck! (woops, another kind of f bomb, that’s bullshit (woops, a b bomb, shit! (woops, a s bomb!))))

            Peace with your boyfriend.

        1. No but they did say Mario and Sonic is definitely next week followed by Rayman and metal gear solid (I think) in “the near future”.

  1. The only thing I have against the game are the all colorful explosions that are always going off… example, when Pit strikes an enemy, there’s a huge streak of color like he just bust open a balloon full of paint, or when he shoots one of his weapons there’s a huge rainbow blast with sparkles. It’s kind of distracting after viewing the trailers, like it’s a big fireworks display constantly going on. But, it is a manga/anime game, so I guess those effects are popular with that genre, lol. Otherwise, I’m still buying this game.

    1. You should comment that problem before the game is released, that way they will know if the users wants to fix it.

  2. No offense but are these details from nintendo power the one with Kid Icarus on the cover? If so, I knew about this since the begining of January :/

  3. Etecoons and Dachoras

    I’ll be buying this game the first day it comes out, however I can’t help but notice the game’s graphics just aren’t that great to me. Pit’s character model looks bad. I haven’t played the game yet so hopefully the game will look better in motion, but judging from screenshots, it hasn’t impressed me graphically.

  4. Oh finally! Only a year later and this game finally come out. I hope it does well and I look forward to playing it.
