It's seem that a lot of old 2-d game doesn't make automaticly a good 3-d game. I think about castlevania , rygar Megaman... do You think Kid Icarus should stay in 2-d like the last wario game ?

 

 

What's wrong w/ Megaman Legends, Rygar The Legendary Adventure and Castlevania: LOD?

But to your primary question: I'd love to see something in 2D (on Wii!) but there's somewhere near-zero chance of that.

 

 the first megaman in 3d (megaman 64) was a disaster and castlevania has always been better in 2-d.

Megaman Legends preceded 64 (64 is a crappy port of it) and it's actually quite well-remembered.

And yes, CV is better in 2D (kinda like a lot of other 2D-->3D transitions--see Sonic, et al), but that doesn't mean that LOD wasn't a good game--it's just too bad that, instead of building on that, Konami threw it all away.

Two games, one 2D on the DS one 3D on the Wii.

Seeing that Kid Icarus never made the step to 16 bit, I think they have to reinvent the franchise anyway, so 3D would probably be the better choice cause it would get more buzz. Also, motion controls could be better implemented into 3D I think.



Currently Playing: Skies of Arcadia Legends (GC), Dragon Quest IV (DS)

Last Game beaten: The Rub Rabbits(DS)

Yeah, they should make a Kid Icarus first person action game with the Minotaur, Cerberus, Hydra the Terminator as bosses!!

Hopefully we'll find out... although I think Kid Icarus could definitely work as a 3D game. If anybody can do it its Nintendo.. they certainly didn't have any trouble with Mario or Zelda.

i think they have to at least try it and see if it works in 3d. If it sucks in 3d they could always make the next one 2d, but I think they would be able to pull off a 3d version if they put in the effort.
