Kid Icarus Wii- Do you think this is gonna happen?

Do you think so? Maybe this is retro studies secret project. After all Metroid was Kid Icarus' sister game, so maybe they're making a sister Kid Icarus to Metroid Prime. But probably not.

Even if it did I wouldn't buy it, the original Kid Icarus sucked hard and no amount of nostalgia can change that. If the first game in a series sucks I will not pick up later installments, because that wouldn't make sense.

Reggie announced it a few months ago at the PAX videogame festival. so i'm sure it'll come but probably not untill 2011:(

and @Frederick:the NES kid icaurus is a great game. i played it recently on VC.

I'm playing it now on VC, which is what prompted me to make this thread. Its pretty good, though very hard. I wouldn't want to do it without a map for the dungeon

I hope not. I don't understand why people want a new Kid Icarus; I hated the original game. I'd rather Nintendo revive another franchise, like StarTropics, Mother, or DK Country.

cant go 100% "NO!:x" but chances are it won't happen.BrunoBRS

If they make it...it better be like God of War.

No, he didn't. He was using it as an example of what kind of games that Nintendo makes. It wasn't an announcement of anything.

And it probably won't happen. I hope it does, but a majority of Wii owners won't have a clue what it is, and it won't sell.

Who said it should be like God of War?

LegatoSkyheart

meh.

Oh now I see it...

Why should it be like God of War? Like have the hack n slash gameplay or just the atmosphere of the games. Because that atmosphere would fit perfectly with a 3d Kid Icarus.

I say there is absolutely no chance it will be shown, but that is because I would rather be pleasantly surprised than terribly disappointed.

So you want a New Kid Icarus game that's a Shooter??? That's what it was just climb up and shoot enemies with an arrow.

I'll admit I've never played StarTropics, but I have played Zoda's Revenge, and I thought that game sucked, IMO. Mother or Earthbound has had sequels, and DKC I think has ran its course. They tried it again with Donkey Kong 64 which wasn't DKC epicness, and with Jungle Beat (which I've not played), so I think if they want to revive an old IP it should be Kid Icarus. Kid Icarus has had one lonely Game Boy sequel.

I hope that Retro is going to show us its top secret game is Metroid Prime's sister game Kid Icarus Prime.

I give it a 49% chance of happening.

Ok ok ok ok guys....ok......

remember in heavenly sword on ps3 the bow mechanic?Ok.......THAT should absolutely be half the game of the new KI.

If you dont know what it is, think about controlling a fired arrow in first-person (slow motion) using M+, into its target.

metroid's about exploring and shooting.

prime is about exploring and shooting.

kid icarus is about bow & arrow shooting, a kid with defective wings, and ancient greece.

a possible new kid icarus would need that as its "core".

It's possible, but very unlikely.

If it does happen, though, I would expect it to be a platforming/third person shooter hybrid.

I don't think nintendo really cares about kid icarus anymore.

[QUOTE="DeeDeeDee-er"][QUOTE="BrunoBRS"] but that would be more than just a revival... it would be a whole new series with the name of a retro one :? the first one is a metroid-like adventure/shooter. changing it to hack and slash... i don't know.BrunoBRS

[QUOTE="BrunoBRS"]

[QUOTE="DeeDeeDee-er"] Speaking of Metroid, Metroid Prime was a completely different game with the name of an old one.... but I would want it to be an action 3-D platformer, similar in gameplay to Ratchet and Clank, and similar in atmosphere to God of War.thedude-

Man Nintendo Should listen to the people more and take our Ideas and make the games. Apparently we have a better imagination than Nintendo.

[QUOTE="thedude-"][QUOTE="BrunoBRS"] read my second post... "keep the core".

[QUOTE="BrunoBRS"][QUOTE="thedude-"] It would need smart aerial platforming. For example there is a canyon and you cannot fly over it or you will get catapulted in the face. So you have a limited amount of time to fly through a highly elaborate obstacle course in this canyon. Flying, dodging, and fighting your way through in a very good 3d translation of the 2d game. It can also have big environments in which you battle mythological creatures and have more interesting flying obstacles. There is so much they could do. But again, this is like talking about what Mother 4 will have in it.thedude-

[QUOTE="BrunoBRS"][QUOTE="Sepewrath"] Maybe lol, but you all lack the more important thing, market savy. A good idea is nothing but a good bedtime story if you cant market it. Sepewrath

What Factor thing?

[QUOTE="thedude-"]

[QUOTE="BrunoBRS"] i think you got the idea :P and i'd say it's more like talking about what ice climbers wii will have in it.BrunoBRS

Not in 2010.

If Mario Galaxy 2, Metroid Other M and *hopefully* Zelda, then there's no more room for first party "core" titles.

Maybe in 2011. Or, a launch title for the next Nintendo console would be a safer bet.
