Just to agree with everyone else - yes Kid Icarus is a great game. It's the first time in a long while I've played a game that feels totally different to other games I've played before.

I cant believe how hard it was to get hold of though (UK). Usually I pre order everything online but this time I didnt. It wasnt in any of the major supermarkets, gamestation, game or this random game shop that had bright orange walls... A few people said they'd had it but it had sold out and they were waiting for stock - eventually found it in HMV.

Anyone who has a 3DS should at least give it a try

I'm a lefty too. Use the stand. If you are trying to hold the system and use your off hand with the stylus ... it's just too much. The game ships with a stand, make use of it. Eventually you get used to it.

IMO this is the best Nintendo game of the last 5-6 years outside of the two Super Mario Galaxy games and about tied dead even with Super Mario 3D Land for me.

This really shows how you can have a cinematic story in a Nintendo game without breaking up the gameplay. It feels pretty much as cinematic to me at times as an Uncharted game (lol), but in its own way and stays true to its Nintendo roots (ie: doesn't try so hard to feel like a Michael Bay movie).

I think I should recommend every player of KI this thread: The Official VGChartz Kid Icarus: Uprising Throwdown!

I agree! More people who buy 3DS's, more Uprising sells, hopefully

Well I tried the face buttons to aim. Not a fan. Despite the fact that it is easier to hold when using face buttons to aim with, the stylus is just so damn fast and fluid.

This game is getting better and better the more I play it.

Hell yeah, I'm on Chapter 23! This game is so awesome and the story is just amazing! I'm going all out and finishing this game! Playing the game on 5.0 is intense enough for me.

Hey guys.

I want to announce that a 'Throwdown' has been created for Kid Icarus: Uprising.

If you would like to learn more details click here.

I'm so sad this game doesn't sell so well in America and Europe. It's one of the best handheld games out there! American gamers are not into the handheld market at all. Plus, they usually prefer AAA shooters over a new original games.

There's still a long way to go in America. Today, I've been told that the 3DS is only for children and that the Vita is better because of its graphic capabilities.

Yeah, sick world out there tellin' us that. xD

Anyone want to join the tournament?
