I know KI is not popular...but if they can do something good with it I prefer it much more than another sequel of known franchise that for sure will be disappointing. how many of you have played GTA III, GTA San Andreas or Vice City and the have played GTA4 (after all the hype) and feel disappointing?

 

LOL I even disappointed playing Kid Icarus in a emulator before. I mean, KI was nothing more than  Ice climbers and Metroid combined. And its in literal sense it is. Some people posting facts say KI uses the Metroid engine on the NES.

 

To be fair, some great franchises didn't start off that good. I didn't really enjoy Metroid for the NES. I love its sequels and the Prime games though.

Sonic 1 kinda aged to me (still fun but obviously flawed, not because of the lack of Spindash), Sonic 2 and Sonic 3 & Knuckles are still amazing to this day.

I beleive Kid Icarus has GREAT potential for another game. So hey, it wouldn't hurt to try.

By the way, in speaking of sequels, there is a KI sequel for the Game Boy but I've never played it yet. Has anyone tried it? If so, was it good or at least better than the NES game? (Personally I did enjoy the NES game to some extent, I heard the first few stages sucks and the rest were good, so I'm still willing to give KI NES another go someday.)
