Haven't had your fill of Kid Icarus: Uprising media after the 3D anime and 3D screenshots, here's some — 2D — footage of the game in action.
The Medusa trailer below is one of the better videos Nintendo's released, with new bosses, weapons and wizards of various foods on display. At 4:38 it's got everything you could need to know ahead of the game's release in just two weeks.

Oh man, these trailers are just not going to help the wait for this game are they... Ah well, a little hype isn't always a bad thing. The dialogue in this game is looking amazing too, although why is it called the Medusa trailer when Medusa isn't really all that prominent in it?
I saw this earlier and it is a fantastic trailer, the dialogue between Pit and Palutena seems entertaining too.
This game looks AMAZING! But Please NO American voice acting in UK release!
Day #1!!!!!!!!!
@Sasukeanditachi That's just what the file's called (shrug)
@C-Olimar Prepare to be disappointed
saw it last evening in the eshop. im stunned. i need this game ASAP
@C-Olimar I want the US voice acting. Tara Strong man, TARA STRONG!
The trailer is even more amazing in 3D!
Most Epic Kid Icarus Trailer Ever. It showed a lot of really cool new stuff and now i'm even more hyped! Pit and Palutena are hilarious with their back and forth banter and it really suits the game.
Looks interesting, but I'd like to play a demo before I go throwing my money at this game.
OMG the dialogue is awesome XD
Fantastic. It looks like the Starfox series can learn a thing or two from Kid Icarus: Uprising if they decide to go with the on foot missions again. I'm totally buying this.
Kid Icarus = Nintendo's answer to Kingdom Hearts.
@James hopefully there will be a Japanese voice option!
The dialog makes me laugh and cringe alternately. "Pit stain"? Ack.
This trailer is even better in 3D on the eShop!
Can't wait for this game now, by the end of the week I will have the entire series on my 3DS.
Let me get this straight... with the purchase of this software we are entitle to a cliched doppelganger, cheesy dialog, space calamari, an eggplant and now tempura wizard and... a robot armor... A Robot Armor?!? Anything that reminds me of Megaman X gets my interest.
Haha, great trailer. I laughed my as of when I saw the tempura wizard and what he does. Looks crazy, this is the first trailer that has gotten me interested in the game..
And the free stand and AR-cards are tempting. Might actually pick this up.
Oh boy, first an eggplant man. Now a tempura man.
Great job by Project Sora. This trailer really accentuates the pure fun that this game will offer. I am hoping for a very promising game so that I can persuade my friends to finally buy the 3DS!!
Saw this yesterday. Yet another wonderful trailer to boost my hype! And if I were in the game, the Tempura Wizard would be the one running away! I love to eat shrimp.
Interesting, but strange banter between Pit, & Palutena.
I've already told Nintendo I plan on getting it.
Big monster kill Pit! Grrrr
... Did Dark Pit call Pit a "Pit Stain"?
I seriously LOVE the cheesy dialogue:
"Huh?? What the heck it that?"
"It's a Tempura Wizard"
"A Tempura-wuttah?
"If he deep-fries you, keep your distance. One bite and you'll be finished!"
and
"This isn't the ask auntie Pendora hour"
Can't wait for this game anymore. Good to know I'm gonna have to laugh a lot too!
What?!
Nintendo made something good?
I won't beileve untill I see it...a little more.
Are then the ground stages also on-rails or almost?
Pure awesomeness. easily the best game of this month.
I'm still not sold on this game. Something about just doesn't appeal to me. I am still buying it, but I'm not getting my hopes up.
@Mandoble
Flight stages are on-rails, ground stages are free-run third person shooter style.
nerdgasm
i think having seen this trailer, it's definitely a game i'd pick up.
this looks like to be one of the best, or even has the potential of being the best 3DS game this year.
Vehicles and Robots? My hype meter just exploded.
And now I'm dying.
I also really like the cheesy banter here. Star Foxes was all "Derp, it's hot on a sun." but this game sounds just amazing. ONLY 2 MORE WEEKS!
Such a great trailer! This game is seriously giving me Smash Bros. vibes.
@JarvanZheitk I know I want the US voice acting. I already excited to play it, but when I learned Tara Strong was voicing in it, the excitement had been doubled.
mind=blown
@NLStaff If this games turns out to be guff, I command you to tagline your review "Pit Stain"
Did i just hear Newman from Seinfeld? aka the toy collector from Toy Story 2?
I'm not sold on the overall look of this game. It looks like a few different games mixed together graphically and style wise that doesn't quite work for me. I also don't like the general HUD and menu design for the most part.
I'd have to play the game to have an opinion on how good it plays however.
boy, that could quite possibly be the cheesiest, worst story and dialogue I have ever seen. I guess that's what I signed up for by still playing video games after 30. Looks fun anyway. why didn't they just take the wings away and call it something else? This looks like barely any relationship to the original. I love space junk too, but it has no place in that story. I need to get a game rental thing, it's getting embarrassing paying money for this stuff, but it's too fun to stop.
Meh, this made me want the game less.
feels like Christmas of 2010 all over agin (Ah golden sun and sonic colors) really looking forward to this one.
I still have no idea what's going on in these trailers or what this is game is supposed to be like, at least the on-foot parts. But tempura wizard.
I wonder if it's safe to watch this trailer if you're already "stoned?" (No, I'm not implying anything about myself. I'm straight edge.)
I'm sold! My only complains so far is the voice acting and the generic dark self,that pretty much appears in any game ever.
Holy wow. Color me interested!
@DrCruse Metroid Other M(Wii),had voice acting,horrible voice acting,but it had it
@DrCruse
StarFox64 anyone?
Man really need 40 bucks by the end of the week. got my 3ds in late feburary this year with mk7 but mk7 wont get old for a long time so ill atleast have that game before i get this.
lol!but this game is awesome!
I watched the multiplayer and weapons video and full video with single player capabilities explained on nintendo 3ds eshop and its definetly worth checking out the game is way better than you think it is now.
Looks awesome, but not quite sure that this game is worth the money I'll just rent this game.
Hopefully the lines that stood out for bad reasons in this trailer were the worst, because some were good. Tempura wizard? Sounds good to me.
Already preordered. I ADORE the game development philosophies Masahiro Sakurai brings to the table. I seriously would like to know what he'd do for Ice Climber, that series could use a reboot. This game brings ALOT to jumpstart a series.
When Hewdraw jumped out of the water and flopped around on the ground remind anyone else of the Lagriacus from Monster Hunter 3/Tri?
pit doesnt want to be naked in front of palintena. thats why he doesnt take his clothes off.
"Remember when you were like, 'I'm finished!' all the time?"
"I...still say that.....a lot."
Haha so looking forward to this one :3
@TheBaconator
yeah, I know. I want to like it but it seems pretty weird. Bad weird.
@Onett good point, but i hardly doubt any storyline in gaming history can get as deep and convoluted as the KH one.
Looks great, but I can't make out what Thanathos is saying.
That was AWESOME! Some may consider it cheezy, but I love that kind of humorous dialog and voice acting.
Starting to like the dialogue, now if only there was a Demo.
