Forums - Nintendo - Miyamoto says 'wait' for a new Kid Icarus

Aion on 04 July 2009

It will be risky releasing a new Kid Icarus game after a long time.

I can't really say I'd be excited for a Kid Icarus game... I mean there comes a time when Nintendo has to come up with original ideas and stop rehashing IPs from over 2 decades ago simply because a tiny fraction of their audience has a bad case of nostalgia.

No one but the hardest of the hardcore Ninty fanboys would be interested in a game with "Kid Icarus" in the title... personally I'd be much more interested in a new Pikmin, because that is a much more well known franchise today, and there's tons of potential for it on the Wii with the motion controls and pointer interface.

I don't get this.  How can you rehash Kid Icarus?  Punch Out was a rehash but there is no way you could have a rehash of Kid Icarus when such a game would automatically mean a move from 2d to 3d.  Was Prime a rehash of the old 2d Metroids? Was Ocarina of Time a rehash of the 2d Zeldas?  Was Mario 64 a rehash of the 2d Marios?  The game will effectively be a completely new and different game just with a similar name and a similar character.  But if it makes you happy I am sure they can call the game Bow Ray and name the character Charles Ray and make him wear a black and red outfit and not have wings.

Interesting. Hope it turns up sometime.

The sequel is going to be on the next Nintendo system and be called Icarus: Blood On Death's Wing. Icarus is all grown in his own FPS and takes crap from no one. 666 player death matches. I've already dicussed this.

Yoshi's Island DS was pretty slick. The Kirby scenario on the other hand is bugging me... wtf is Sakurai doing!?



How technical is your game?

Sakurai has nothing to do with the new Kirby game. He long left HAL before that game was even announced.
