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

YES I finally DID it! Ok, I’m done.
wait… did you just call yourself a fag?
CONGRATULATIONS! YOU ARE THE 1% WHO REALIZES IT!
PS: you sir are the next Einstein !
fuck you, homophobe. He may be an idiot but no need to drop f bombs,
?? ^ ??
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.
lol,u sir are a genius!
U’ve gained 15% respect
Sounds good to me.
nothing i hadnt already known.
Maybe a demo will come soon. thursday is the eshop update day for the U.S. Maybe we will get it that soon.
US is getting mario and sonic demo
I don’t know if NoA even confirmed a weekly schedule. I think they said the dates were undetermined.
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”.
Can’t wait for this game. It sounds awesome <3
This game sounds expansive and action packed.
Me wills wanks ova this game.egimario I wants to bum u buddy.
I think sakurai should of made the next starfox instead
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.
You should comment that problem before the game is released, that way they will know if the users wants to fix it.
Yeah, grinding! :D
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 :/
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.
Oh finally! Only a year later and this game finally come out. I hope it does well and I look forward to playing it.
