Kid Icarus may have been delayed until 2012 but there's a bonus for Pit fans as Nintendo is planning to release 3D Kid Icarus animations.


Yes, they're currently developing 3D Kid Icarus animations with some critically acclaimed Japanese anime production houses. 

The animations will be made available free of charge via the Nintendo Video service to 3DS owners worldwide.

It will certainly make a change from Oscar's Oasis!

Here are some new Kid Icarus Uprising screenshots.

 

 

 

 

I wonder what anime studios Nintendo/Project Sora are working with.  Madhouse (Death Note) is a possibility as they did the cut scenes for Solatorobo.  I would quite like Bones (Soul Eater, Darker than Black, Fullmetal Alchemist), but I have a hunch that it's not them.  Whoever does them, I will be excited to see what the final product will look like, maybe it could prove to be the 'killer app' for Nintendo Video, perhaps.
