Sakurai "In Talks" to Bring Original Kid Icarus to 3DS

Hell....Yes....!!!! id love to get my hands on myths and monsters!!!

i'm sorry, but i don't want him to say anything that isn't about smash bros

Myths and Monsters cleaned up a lot of the annoying issues about the original NES game. For instance, now you can actually scroll DOWNWARDS, the hammers have a use in EVERY level, not just every fourth level, and the NPCs actually explain HOW your powerups are activated.

I'll take anything related to Kid Icarus. <3

That game is soooooo hard. So gimme. ^^

might be on cartridge but money wise they probably put it on eshop either way ill have a bash

Honestly, Kid Icarus is already on the way for a full 3D game and not just some "remastered" VC game in 3D. I haven't seen some good stuff on the 3D Classics yet, so I'm not voting for that.

There's no problem to release it for the VC, however.

But, I've yet to beat the Wii VC version. :x

@7 to be fair, there are only 2 games in the 3D Classics ranges.

YES! I'd love this to be a 3D Classic. This game in particular deserves it.

Make it easier, though.

Everyone knows that "no comment" means "early in the process" or "thinking about it"

Why not. But Of Myths and Monsters should be brought to the 3DS' VC before that. _{Since we already got the original Kid Icarus on the Wii's VC recently.}
If it was uncluded in Uprising it would be even better though.

yes yes !
so far, the VC dispoints me. i mean, i will probably get zelda when i feel like playing a zelda, but marioland is way overpriced, donkey kong too.

excitebike was fun the day it launch, but i didnt put much hours in it yet. good for the nostalgia feeling, but 5 dollars for an hour or 2 is too much. they already gained their bucks years ago with them, why dont they cut the price in half so people can enjoy them for the sake of it. i wont get much virtual console because of that, what a shame.

its the kind of thing you want a lot of, and spending 40 dollars for 6 or 7 oldies is crazy. i can find them for 99cents at my local store, original version. maybe not kid icarus, this one seems rare

nooo please bring kirbys avdenture on the 3DS ESHOP and the kid icarus game on the gameboy i need them asap. if i got them i would been very happy. Super Mario land 2 would been even more awesome

This is EXCELLENT news!! I was hoping for a sequel in the style of Mega Man 9 & 10 but this would be awesome as well. I was just playing Kid Icarus last night on the Wii. It is by far one of the best classic NES games. And PLEASE release Myths and Monsters on VC for the 3DS. I would buy a 3DS just for that!!

Cool I guess, though I honestly didn't find the original Kid Icarus that good, but to each their own. The most software the better.

Myths and Monsters is the news I want to hear. I'm not sure if there's an OG game boy title I played more obsessively.

Would be cool if it got a 3D makeover like Excitebike did.

do want

Oh yeah!!

I wouldn't worry about Japan not getting Of Myths and Monsters. They'll probably get it as an import title before we see it here in the US.

I've been pining for KI:oMaM and feel it will be a shoe in to appear on 3DS faster than the original. In fact, announcement or not, I'm anticipating it since we've gotten Mario's first GB romp, Link's first GB, and DK's first GB (nevermind the the DKL games for a moment ) that both KI:oMaM and Metroid II:RoS are due almost "next", but don't quote me on that. I mean, Nintendo is on track to release a game from each of their mascots at this point, and I can't wait for these two.

I'm not too bothered about seeing it as a 3D classic as its already on the wii vc but it would still be pretty good if they did release it as a 3D classic but I would rather of myths and monsters was released on 3DS vc.

@MeloMan
Not to mention Kirby's first game ever!

@earthboundbenjy I agree. I NEED some kirby!

nice i hope it does come on the 3DS i never manage to finish it on the vc wii because it was either difficult due to a challenge or item which kept me dieing and starting all over

so in other words i hope this has a save feature like the gameboy and gameboy color games then i'll get it

@ 26 and 27 Indeed!
I'll calm down, don't wanna get myself TOO excited for this Thursday, but I really think that's what Nintendo is doing... maybe it will be Kirby next... faints from anticipation

VC should have NES and SNES games. Let me play some Mario Bros in 3D

I am not a fan of the original NES version of Kid Icarus. But I would support any NES game going 3D so bring it on!!!!

Maybe we'll see a Kid Icarus themed week on the eShop with the 3D Classic and the Game Boy VC game around the time the new game comes out.

I don't think I even need to answer this question, as everyone here already knows my answer!

i'd much rather see a release of doom in 3d. 3d side scrolling games make little to no sense to me. how about a 3d-3d world runner release? doesn't that make a bit more sense?

Yes, please, Nintendo.

Just make the game less frustrating and moreplayable, please.

"The original Kid Icarus was released on Game Boy Advance in Japan, but as Kid Icarus: Of Myths and Monsters launched in North America and Europe — but not Japan, strangely"

So Japan never saw the second Kid Icarus? Yeah, that's pretty strange!

I would love to see that as im sure Mr.Gunpei Yokoi-san (R.I.P) would.

I liked the Gameboy sequel much more than the Nes original.
If anything bring that to 3DS VC. I really don't think I'd care for a 3D version of the first one. It's way too frustrating and not much fun all.

Hm..

"No comment" to the "Will the original Kid Icarus game be in Uprising?"

So, there's a good chance it will be, as "No comment" usually means "Yeah, but I'm not going to say it for sure".... or something like that lol

Bleh

The original Kid Icarus was perfect. It was the perfect level of difficulty and was an absolute blast to play. If you are having trouble, try this site: http://www.flyingomelette.com/kidicarus/kidicarusshrine.html . This game took the best elements of the classic NES games and melded them together into something original. This game is easily in my top ten favorites!!

I got this for the NES and I love it, the hardest bit is the beginning because you start off with so little health.

Metroid/Super Metroid as a 3D classic please. On topic: Kid Icarus would be nice.
