kid icarus sequel isnt happening in this lifetime..

[QUOTE="Bread_or_Decide"][QUOTE="charizard1605"]He doesn't talk about the game's profitability at all, he is talking about the insane effort required to build the game, and commenting on how he feels it's pretty perfect already. This isn't like Smash Bros., where you can add new characters and stages everytime- where does Kid Icarus go from here from a mechanical standpoint? Sakurai may already have achieved everything that he wanted to with the IP, which is why he's letting go of it. Sort of like how he ultimately ditched Kirby.nintendoboy16

[QUOTE="charizard1605"][QUOTE="Bread_or_Decide"] Insane effort? Good grief it looks pretty standard to me...nothing groundbreaking. Bread_or_Decide

mm-hmm. yeah.

Not that surpise coming from Sakurai.

God those controls were downright idiotic. WTF were they thinking?Bread_or_Decide

Yeah I sure you played it.:roll: The controls are fine, just feels a little awkward at first. And yes there was a lot of effort put in this game. Pretty much everything beside the controls are very top notch.

For the record, Kid Icarus Uprising outscored Uncharted: Golden Abyss here on Gamespot. If you don't believe me, look up both games and see their scores.

And while Zelda: Skyward Sword failed to get a high score here on Gamespot, it should be noted that it currently holds a higher Metacritic score then Uncharted 3. Now, let's take a quick glace at JRPGs for a second. Tales of Graces f scored a 7.0 here on Gamespot while Xenoblade managed a 9.0, destroying one of the PS3's top JRPGs this year. And of course, let's not forget the perfect 10's that Super Mario Galaxy 2 got all over the place.

Now, let me say a few things before I get to my final point. I know you're going to dismiss me as a blind sheep who is ingorent to Nintendo's flaws. Let me cut you off by saying that I own and buy consoles from Sony, Microsoft, Nintendo, and even stilll have my older ones from Sega. I'm simply responding to the ignorant fanboy statement that "nintendo games suck."

Which brings me to my final point. Do you know the reason why the Vita has had so much trouble taking off? A large part of it is the high price and lack of games, but the biggest thing killing the Vita is the 3DS. Simply put, the 3DS has been getting games that people want to play, and this has allowed it to dominate the charts. Look at Japan's charts, and you'll see several 3DS games on there every week. Games like Mario, Monster Hunter(a major seller for the PSP), and Fire Emblem have helped the 3DS keep up its momentum.

Here's the facts Atari. "Those Nintendo games that noone cares about because they suck" are driving the 3DS' sales and allowing it to dominate the Vita, especially in regions like Japan.

Can the Vita turn it around? Possibly, but stop looking for more and more outlandish ways to attack Nintendo. I'm not saying their a perfect company, but they must be doing something right if the 3DS could reverse its slow start and be at a point where it dominates charts on a weekly basis.

Well he himself said it was a short game so I must question how much content is in it.

Im sure a WiiU version would be much appreciated. You can't resurrect an IP and kill it off Ninty, think of the fans! :x

Who would have though.. didn't break 4 million? Back to the depths with you kid Icarus.

Yes I did, and it just so happens his highest selling game is the one he keeps making sequels for despite leaving HAL.. go figure.

I surely hope my lifetime doesn't last 25 years...

Your mistake is asuming Bread has a 3DS, let alone Kid Icarus.

Oh.

The game is short but there's a lot of things to do after you finish the game.

for those of you who happen to; for whatever reason, enjoy kid icarus uprising. dont be counting on a sequel anytime soon. the director is not on board for such an undertaking and the effort to make uprising at least from the way things sound in the interview wasnt very worthwhile in terms of profits.

if you want one its likely you will be waiting another 25 years. so likely you will all be long dead by then

You mean humans have a life expectancy of 45 years?

do you live in a world where everyone has a terminal disease or something?

[QUOTE="campzor"]there will be a sequel one way or another..whether it be spiritual successor or something else. They will take a character from kid icarus and then make a game around him/her.. this is ninty ppl...if the game is popular enough there will be moreionusX

[QUOTE="1oh1nine1"]

[QUOTE="ionusX"] which is why megaman lege... aww too soon?

Now now, that is Capcom, not Nintendo.

Maybe your lifetime, TC. I'm working out and eating right, just for this game.

The thing that seperates real trolls from trogdolites like yourself is the effort they put in their posts

You're just barely a step above atarikid in terms of dumbf*ckery

Whatever Nintendo... :roll:

Maybe your lifetime, TC. I'm working out and eating right, just for this game.

It has a decent length but the replay value is very high and there multiplayer.

Still not sure how this is news. Did anyone expect this to get an immediate sequel? I mean, we already knew Sakurai was moving on to Smash Bros. Seems to me like people are so used to successful games getting spammed with sequels this gen that the idea of one game per platform per gen suddenly means death for an IP.
