Yes it's old, but then Matt and Bozon are older gamers. Every generation since the NES gamers have been asking for a Kid Icarus game. I recall a poll in I believe it was Nintendo Power who late in the N64's life had a poll asking readers what franchise that missed the N64 would they most like to see on its successor. Metroid was #1, Kid Icarus #2, and I remember R-Type was also on it (since I hated that game). Prior to the Wii coming out there was a big hoax put on by someone taking some Phoenix something game and claiming it was Capcom (IIRC) making a Kid Icarus game for the Gamecube then the Wii. It created a lot of buzz because older gamers, who were Nintendo fans at least, have always wanted a Kid Icarus game. I would think at this point it is the only game left that I could see Matt and Bozon getting very excited over. Again though who knows, they could be thinking of Urban Champion or Play Action Football for all we know.
