Japanese gaming bible Famitsu has awarded the forthcoming Kid Icarus: Uprising a perfect 40/40 review score. There’s currently no information other than the score, but clearly this is going to be a game every Nintendo 3DS owner should own. Edge magazine previously awarded Kid Icarus: Uprising a more-than-respectable 8/10.
Wow… I wasn’t planning on picking this game up, but now I just might. Need a good Nintendo game for my 3DS anyway.
Not implying that Mario 3D Land or Mario Kart 7 were bad, it’s just that I’ve beaten them
yeah, beat 3d land and got all five stars pretty quickly. i played the game a shit load, but after completion its kinda pointless. star fox 64 gets old quick, mario kart 7 is no fun on one screen with no one else to play with, and i still have yet to finish the master quest on ocarina. revelations and snake eater are my two loves at the moment. cant wait till friday
cheering to Masahiro Sakurai he made it again
Yea most games for systems that “everyone should own” usually barely sell.
Shame :(
Mario disagrees.
FINALLY… a perfect score for the returning Pit in a brand new Kid Icarus title for 3DS.
first
but really, i preordered this and it looks really fun!
oh nvm i wasnt first
darn.
maybe next time, bro
KBM, I think you should be awarded with “the most mature person on this site” someday
Not bad. Pity Famitsu scores don’t count for nearly as much as they used to. Also Famitsu tends to favour games aimed at a Japanese audience than Western-style games.
Yeah, like Skyrim, eh? Of course a Japanese magazine will favour Japanese-type games over Western ones. What are you smoking?
Well… I mean, yeah. They’re a Japanese magazine, so they are a Japanese audience.
And this is the type of review I like. Why? Because they have 4 different reviewers and 4 different scores to get a final judgement. It’s more fair to the games that way.
Yes, I remember waaay back whe EGM used to do multiple reviewers as well…..I miss those times.
Man, if they can do this on the 3DS, imagine what a Kid Icarus would look like on WiiU! I hope this sells like water in a desert. Pit has been dead for too long.
O yes I’m laughing now because I was one of the only people who saw the potential for this game when it was announced at E3 2010 and everyone of my friends said this game would be cut. NOW everyone loves this game, hmm fools! lol =p
I actually had faith for this game to show off what it can do since that time, and I couldn’t be anymore right.
Ha my friend and I were excited for this game since we bought the 3DS day one :P
This was one of the two main reasons I bought a 3DS in the first place… the other reason being DS compatibility (didn’t have a DS).
Already pre-ordered. Now I just wish I could find the Circle Pad Pro so I can actually play. It’s not online, not in store. I wish they made the control lefty-friendly.
I think you can actually order them straight from the Nintendo website.
That’s the option i took; it’s not cheap though. i couldn’t find em in Gamestop or their site.
I still have the circle pad pro sealed brand new from GameStop. Im not using it. Guess I might when this comes out.
Yeah that has to suck, days like this I’m glad I can do both left and right handed :D
Awesome! Pit deserves to join Famitsu’s list of perfect games.
*flaps arms up & down*
As excited as I’ve been for this game, really didn’t see THIS coming. Dat Sakurai.
Wow, 40 huh? Makes me wanna preorder……..naw I’ll wait for payday
show us ur tits.
I got ban for this?
That’s the good news I like to hear. Major system seller for Nintendo right here. Were getting closer to the launch date. Is your body ready?
Leave luck to heaven.
The good new keeps on a rolling for the Big N,cant wait for release date.
Love your sig btw.
My body is more than ready ;)
My body is ultra ready ;D

Wow, a perfect score? Haven’t seen that from Famitsu in a while. Guess this really is the best 3DS game to date then.
I think both Zelda and Skyrim got perfect? So yeah. Not been a huge while but considering it’s up there with them~

Alright folks just wait until Gamespots and G4TV review this game. They gonna give it a low score and complain about the controls and voice acting.
Imagine Adam “X-Play” Sessler scores this game a 2 out of 5 and then an army of angry letters 2 minutes after the review. I’d be more than pissed off if they score a below average.
I like the voice acting. Yeah the jokes and stuff are kinda cheesy but it makes the character’s lovable. It feels like that saturday morning cartoon you used to wake up to back when you were 10.
Yeah it the same as Starfox 64 in terms of Voice Acting which I will LOVE!
I wont be suprised when that happens.
G4 simply hates nintendo games and games which are cartoony.
http://www.g4tv.com/games/wii/61992/metroid-other-m/
I mean, G4 gave this game low because its nintendo.
That game should be no lower then 3/5. TROLLS
It would help your argument better if you chose a game that’s actually GOOD to prove your point.
Super Mario Galaxy 2.
^This
i think this will blowup into another big franchise for nintendo
likr mario AND OTHERS
It’ll be the big 4
1 Mario
2 Zelda
3 Metroid
4 Kid Icarus

Day 1 for me
Am I the only one who’s NOT über-excited for this? It looks cool and all, but I would like a demo before any final decisions.
It would be a great candidate for the first 1st-Party demo.
Wait, there’s Nintendogs. Scratch that: 1st actual game that’s 1st-party. :P
edge sucks
Go home to your trailer!
congratulations on being the 19th game to get a perfect score kid icarus.
