theblackdragon has agreed to allow this thread to restart provided the image macros and general nastiness are left out of the topic, so here's a new fan thread for Kid Icarus.

And all arguments avoided from this point on. Now let's use our imaginations.

Seriously, a 2D eShop title alongside a 3D full-fledged game. Awesome combo.

That would be great, although I dunno if Ninty will ever do a classic style Kid Icarus game again, since there are so many changes that it could be considered a new franchise.

That would be awesome. The game doesn't need to lood like Mutant Mudds or vvvvvv. It can also be 2.5D, but i would prefer the visuals from Kid Icarus 3D Classics

Rocko52

It would be fun, 2.5d with the same graphics style as SSBB and Uprising.

knock it off, please — continuing to taunt people is not necessary at all — TBD

Meh, I wouldn't want an 8-Bit game. When done well it's okay but seems almost pretentious, when done wrong it looks downright fraudulent.

I'd rather see it use a heavily modified engine of Uprising, so jumps, in-game shops and other older things can be added while it keeps the same large weapon selection list, graphical style and other newer stuff. Also, hopefully similar to KI NES a mostly linear adventure but with occasional exploration-based levels (with a map obviously).

One major reason I'd want the 2D title to not use an 8-bit style is potential voice acting. I'd love to see them piss all over fanboys who cry over change (even though I'd want it to be rooted in the earlier titles).

I do like the idea of 2.5D again. Unfortunately, I don't know how likely Ninty is to even make a sequel, period.

^Is that Icarian/NyxQuest? Cause that doesn't mean much to me due to completely different game mechanics.

Like I said, a heavily modified engine is what would be best if we're talking 3DS eShop.

Sure, why not? Hopefully you play a lot of Kid Icarus online.

Yes, I mean this post. Let's not clutter this thread any more.

^Thank you much. You know, I doubt they could modify Uprising's engine to the point of being a 2.5D platform/action game. I say make a new engine, but base the look off of Uprising, keep older conventions, and add some of Uprising's additions, such as you mentioned like weapons.

Not that it wouldn't've been nice to have the original 8-bit game playable, the 3D classics 1 is nice because the backgrounds actualy give it some life I kinda like too how it borrowed from the famicom version, the saves ystem anyway. The reaper on the other hand, well I really just can' tget used to sound it made because it's not as I recall on the NES, it just soundsa little weird vs that version.

I feel it is possible. At least keeping the weapon system intact.

I can't see Nintendo blowing too much money on an eShop title (and can't see them making a 2D Kid Icarus title retail) so that would be a good way to cut costs.

Ya, but I just dunno, it'd be a lot of work when they could just borrow another engine made for 2.5D.

If they could borrow another 2.5D engine they made and implemented elements from KI:U, that'd be great as well. I thought you meant build a whole new one from scratch (which would be too costly).

I can understand the confusion, sorry. What I mean is just heavily modify a 2.5D optimal engine like NSMB2, or DKCR3D, or something. Speaking of Donkey Kong Country, I'm so irritated Nintendo took down the trilogy! I know it's old news, but still...

Hey guys, some of you will notice I've gone ahead and cleared the macros and nastiness out of this thread now. Please don't restart that mess again, I'd like to be able to get a night's sleep without having to worry about this sort of thing. If I wake up to the same thing I locked a while ago, the instigators will not be happy campers, I assure you. Thanks in advance! :3
