but, this isnt really news.. i feel like its basically the same thing as that video we saw where someone has the wii u controller on the floor and they are preparing to tee off a golf ball from the floor into the tv screen.

@JarvanZheitk im with you, games they have made that fit into this building up category are
Jump Ultimate Stars (released only in japan but importable and well worth it)

and the older one .. dont remember the name.. Jump Super Stars
which allow you to fight with all the bandai owned franchise against each other.
think naruto vs dragonball vs one piece.

now Capcom owns the rights for Marvel vs Capcom and even Tatsunoko vs Capsom. Plus many others

Namco is known for Tekken as well as owning the characters like Pacman and tons of other stuff.. just wikipedia it

Adding Sega to the picture makes this game potentially the biggest merge of characters ever possible..

MY PREDICTION FOR GAME NAME IS BELOW

Universal Tournament : Utimate Fighters

@YelloWishua im thinking about getting this.. Im going on a trip to japan which is about 12 hours.. now im not gonna play 10 hours but, i do want to play kid icarus for more than the 2 hours i get from the built in battery.

@Luigi_is_better @Luigi_is_better
more twists than m night shamalan? well usually he has 1 twist so.. yeah, it better have more than 1 twist.. haha

i wonder if famitsu is owned by nintendo.. and they strategically do this to try to boost sales at a pivital time for the company...

I preordered it at Best Buy.. but i have not received my code in my email account yet.. when will they send it?

okay so..
If Nintendolife is featuring Kid Icarus in the background of the website, are they really gonna have a non-biased opinion on this game? I mean they have to give the game a 9 or 10/10 because they are making money on the advertising for the game. For a non biased opinion, go check this out
http://www.usatoday.com/tech/gaming/story/2012-03-19/kid-icarus-game-review/53653150/1

what a stupid question.. if its free, everyone will get it.

Did i just hear Newman from Seinfeld? aka the toy collector from Toy Story 2?

I CAN DO IT!! LIKE NO PROBLEM AT ALL

Im sorry, i just watched the intro to the first Darksiders and I dont see how it is similar to Zelda in any way. How is this trailer in anyway similar to Zelda? Can someone answer me?

More like Transformers meets Walking Dead

ive never played a mg since the NES version.. and i never beat that one either.. i think i got like 1 hour into it.. smoked a cigarette, and lost interest...

hmmm maybe for 100 points

I think Im gonna get this game. I played the NES version when i was a kid along side Zelda 2 etc.. Metroid , Mario etc.. and I can still hum the tunes in that awesome game.. I hope they pay homage to that version somehow.. cause so far, this game is totally different..

For example, one of the biggest things that NES did that I never saw in any other game of that time was the last level changed game engines. From up down scroller to a side scrolling shooting game that was very distinguishing quality.. And Icarus' sprite doubled in size..

Why is this site sooo European focused? Is nintendolife from UK? I would like to at least include hints if the product is heading to the states or not..

I think it has to be something that a VITA buyer will hear and cause them not to buy a VITA but rather, dish it out for the 3DS.. right? What could that be? Maybe a new version of the 3DS? with specs that match more of the VITA? not processor but possibly battery life being better and also 3rd party game support similar to vita?

WOW these movies might sell me!!!
http://www.nintendo.co.jp/3ds/akdj/gallery/#/movie_index/

Whats up with that card game with augmented reality?
http://www.nintendo.co.jp/3ds/akdj/ar/index.html

why is USA always last to know when the release date will be... arg...

BRING TO STATES PLEASE!!!!!!

what if this game ends up not being good? i mean we havnt even read a review yet... oh i hope its a 10/10

i saw in the description on amazon that there will be online 6 player battle!!! whoo hoo

Product Features
Pit returns in an all new adventure only for the Nintendo 3DS
Collect special AR cards to interact with characters from the game using the 3D cameras and AR software on the system
Difficulty slider allows players of a range of skill levels to enjoy the Kid Icarus experience
Blast your way through missions in the air and go hand to hand against Medusa's minions on the ground
1 player storyline campaign or up to 6 players in Multiplayer (local and Internet play options are available)

hmmm.. looks interesting... but ill probably pass..

Allowing us to create our own characters (using miis etc) or inventing our own combination of special attacks (yoyos etc)and then being able to fight online with them against each other.. that would be cool

アイス・を・プロフェシー
火・を・プロフェシー
を(wo) should have been の(no) for proper grammar
also doesn't make sense to have アイス(ice) as katakana and 火(fire) as kanji
the correct title's should have been (if done by japanese)
アイス・の・プロフェシー <--ice prophecy
ファイアー・の・プロフェシー <--fire prophecy
or in Kanji
氷・の・プロフェシー <-ice prophecy
火・の・プロフェシー <-fire prophecy

93. squirrelguys , thanks for that link. I can read Japanese and I concur with those problems. Totally fake!!!

looks horrendous ... now if you could build your own and share it.. maybe..
id trade 101 crap table for 1 pinball pulse ancient beckoning any day!

Pinball Pulse is amazing game.. I put about 100 hours into that 5 dollar game literally. Ive found myself playing through and realizing its 3am.. and i need sleep.. so put it in sleep mode to continue the next day.. sort of wish it has online leader board.. cause nobody can beat me!!!

for 150 coins.. gotta get it!!!

wait thats TODAY!!!! i have over 1000 points, i gotta get it!!!

i bought this like 2 years ago and played it on my train commute for many days. i ended up missing my stop once and didnt notice til i was 2 stops past!!! thats how much you can get into it... but, i would have to say that the March of the Mini's the first one with the level editor was my favorite just because it was so much fun to share levels with fellow forum friend lists..

Nintendogs, WiiMusic, ... next... my guess.... Glue Sniffer ... heard it here first. With sniffer attachment. Will be very addictive

please make a game for the wii or ds that has a level editing mode. i love mario vs donkey kong and that concept placed on a new creation like little big planet is a good way to go

when to USA? I remember I loved it and beat it.. I also remember the last level being a entirely different engine from the main game where the sprite was actually larger than normal because it became a side scrolling shooter. and you gotta beat medusa.. also remember topless statues in the background .. anybody else remember that?

i love hearing that one of the top 3 games is from a third party and not just another mario thingy!! good job capcom!

zen pinball didnt get that great reviews for the xbox or ps3.. ill wait til i see a demo or something.. not an instabuy for me.. Pinball Pulse for DSiWare only.. bummer.. if they allowed transfer to 3ds, id be a happy camper..

パルテナの鏡 <----- that is the japanese title for the original Kid Icarus.
Translates "The Mirror of Parthenon"
interesting how the change of just the name makes a game more child like or serious...

is it better than pinball pulse? that uses both screens. which makese more sense to me than having it on 1 3d screen

u guys serious? 250 - 500? INSANE!!! nobody will buy it. It has to do what 3DS did. go down to the price of the current wii at 199.99 or else it will not get into enough living rooms for 3rd parties to even consider backing it up. It HAS to be 199.99. and basic Wii will drop to 129.99 mark my word!!!

i just wish link wouldnt look so stiff walking around.. add some secondary motion.. and momentum.. learn from Ico and Shadow of Colossus.. and expand upon those gems!!!

Mario Vs Dk 2 March of the Minis was far superior in everyway to this Mayhem! but its old and probably not available anymore in stores...
they should release a 3DS MarioVsDK4 instead on the 3DS store instead as a free download for a 3DS purchase. id buy it for sure then

I bought this game recently because I was on this ds pinball craze.. Metroid Pinball, Pinball Pulse, .. which were great games but then this purchase was a disaster. I hated the physics. You flip the flipper and the ball just goes in some random direction. that is horrible. its like if you wanted to pull the baseball and you swing early, and the ball goes to the opposite field. over and over. i wonder how i even got as far as i did in it and WHY i even played it for as long as i did. Dont care if you love mario stuff, i do not recommend it under any reasons.unless one enjoys wasting money and time.

sorry ill pass. i have it on wii and unless there are new tables, its a waste of money to buy this game which will suffer under smaller screens than ah hdtv

If you want a great Original pinball for the ds, get Pinball Pulse the ancient beckons for only 500 pts.. its 1 table, but really well designed with goals and objectives that are skill based. meaning the more you play it and the more you understand the strategy, the better you become

Until then, I really really recommend Pinball Pulse The Ancient Beckons if you like good ol fashion Pinball with a twist. The physics are amazing and you can become good at the table.. where alot of video pinball is sort of harder to control the ball = less fun. nobody can beat my high score on PPTAB!!!

Should be sued. What if an 80 year old wanted to play it and bought the 3ds thinking it was just around the corner. then .. 2012? what if that 80 year old dude, dies? he bought a 3ds for nothin..
