Topic: Kid Icarus: Uprising

Yeah...it's painful XD. We shall suffer for...a few days.

SCORE.

Well I figured I would change my avatar to be in the occasion

"Prepare to meet the light!"

Joins you guys
Stupid BestBuy... They said they shipped it two days ago and It's still not her ._.

Yeah I don't get all of these stores sometimes, one release day they're like "We don't have it yet." and another they're like "Yup we have it out." >.>

Got my copy today from Amazon. I played through the first two chapters, I love it so far. My favorite part is the music, excellent work.

On a happier note, you might want to call Best Buy and get 10 bucks back. It's on sale now for only $30 — good thing for their price match guarantee!

I love the music too! I really wasn't expecting it to be this good

Although, I've only heard what's going around the internet. I don't have my actual game copy yet -.-
I MUST get to Gamestop sometime tonight!

Okay, so I am a lefty and used the circle pad pro and I found it almost to be more difficult to use with the default control scheme for the game. The default control scheme alone by itself using the stylus to aim and the L button to shoot is bad enough. I felt like I had to be double jointed in order to be comfortable trying to cross one hand over the other to aim and shoot. Luckily, you can change the control scheme to where you don't have to use the stylus at all. In fact the circle pad pro is useless because as a lefty it was nice and almost natural to use the left circle pad to move Pit. What are your opinions?

Correction...double jointed wasn't the best description. I think I felt I had to be able to write with both hands in order to manipulate the default controls.

Really? I mean Brawl, Melee even Air Ride (I'm sure he made that too) had awesome music, I expected this to have awesome music as well. xD (not entirely sure if I played any of his other games)

But, but I preordered from Amazon and everything. 3D Classics: KI being sold at GameStop was bad enough and now this. Sometimes you just can't win.

@Mulder1617 So what can you map in place of the touchscreen?

Press R, X, and up on the +Pad at the file menu, I think. If that's not it then you can find it in the e-manual. I know this because I had to delete my first file due to having a hard time enabling the Circle Pad Pro. Turns you just press ZL or ZR. Go figure.

It's a fact: the controls are inherently flawed. How much that affects your enjoyment comes down to personal preference, but there's no getting around the fact that this game could have stood to have better controls (on land especially). Dual analog in the eventual HD remake for Wii U, please.

Other than the controls this is an awesome experience. Online hasn't worked for me yet, but the first two chapters of single-player have been both hilarious and entertaining. 2.0 is waaaaaaaay too easy, though, making me think that they had that be default to make it more accessible for casual players/people that have a harder time coming to grips with the controls. Looking forward to replaying the Chapters 1 and 2 on harder difficulties before moving on.

Now hows about we play some multiplayer?!

Played the first 3 Chapters so far and a bit of Multiplayer. I have to say this is a fantastic game, the acting is decent, the graphics rock. The controls are the only thing wrong in this game.

Am i the only one who has absolutely no problem with the controls?

My copy was here from Amazon when I got home from school today. I'm going to be playing this game for a long time lol. I actually don't mind the controls, I just wish the 3DS itself was bigger, because my hands are to big and they cramp up too fast. Excellent game over all.

Retro please add me!

Eye Twitch This truly is a test of patience... I'm not sure how much longer I can wait...

So, like...how do the cards work anyway? Are they just random and somewhat pointless or is there more to it? Just wondering...

I didn't even get an email telling me if it shipped...which means it's still at amazon ...At least I got my 3D Classic Kid Icarus.

^ What I've been wondering for the longest time.
