The perfect Christmas gift would be to finally reach Demand :) Too many people simply want a Wii.



There is no such thing as a console war. This is the first step to game design.

"Nintendogs Online" would outsell SSBB, Mario Kart or SMG.

I'm sure these games will be part of the Nintendo holiday line-up:
1. Mario Kart
2. Pikmin
3. Animal Crossing
4. Star Fox (not the kind the fans really want)

If that back cover of the new nintendo power topic holds true, I'll predict nintendo going to promote alot of rpg games for this holiday season. So the Monolith RPG might be a possibility or a true pokemon game??

Yeah, Kid Icarus (like R.O.B.) has become a bit of an urban legend. He was on the old "Captain-N" cartoon along with Mega Man and Simon Belmont, but he was the only character not to have a massive video game following. Still, that cartoon got the Kid's name out.

I hear Kid Icarus was a great game, but I have never met anyone who actually admits they played it. It came out too early in the Nintendo Entertainment Center's life-span. Still, if Nintendo makes a really good game, with this franchises(?) reputation, I see it being a winner. SSBB will be important in seeing how Nintendo fans accept the character.

I played it. I beat it. Fantastic game. Leagues better than Metroid. Best fantasy setting. If done right, a new game in this setting could be massive.

What's the deal with everyone who mentions Kid Icarus, who would buy it? Is it even that big of a franchise?

1: It's a classic franchise.

2: I'm guessing "everyone who mentions Kid Icarus" might buy it.

3: You're on vgchartz, why not look at the numbers.

Star Fox doesn't sell millions and millions of games any more. Fire Emblem doesn't sell millions. Should everyone stop rooting for new Star Fox and Fire Emblem games?

So I took upon your challenge, now I have one for you, please point out what is so great about these numbers?
Kid Icarus NES:

 I never said they were great, but I didn't say they weren't either. You asked how big of a franshise it was with the numbers sitting right here on this site. I just pointed out the obvious for you.

Just asking out of morbid curiosity here, but why are you so uptight about Kid Icarus fans wanting a new Kid Icarus game?



"I feel like I could take on the whole Empire myself."

ArtofAngels on 15 January 2008

I replied like that because it sounded like you were being cocky on your point (3)

My bad I must of interpreted it wrong.



Diomedes1976 on 15 January 2008

They have give up wit Starfox(Nintendo didnt develop a single game in the series)and FZERO must be years ahead...so I would say either they delay Mario Kart or they churn out some big DS franchise as Nintendogs or Animal Crossing...that and Wiifit and they will contnue to swim in casual money.
