Mimternet Posted June 8, 2006 Posted June 8, 2006 If a similar post has already been started please delete - I searched but couldn't find out. I've never played a Kid Icarus game and have no idea what the concept is, but after seeing Pit in Smash Brothers Brawl I have to say I have been excited by the potential of this character. Not only does he look like the coolest Nintendo character, ever, he also has wings and a sword! Winged combat using the Wii controller is mind-blowing. I hope a Kid Icarus game sees the light of day on Wii... his being in Smash Brothers Brawl is certainly promising.
Kurtle Squad Posted June 8, 2006 Posted June 8, 2006 I think it's not out of the question, would kinda be made like Zelda Bow wise if on the Wii I'm guessing, but more like the NES one if made for DS/GBA. I think they should also make a new Ice Climber game to be honest, some sort of 3D platformer with a random storyline would be fine
Kav Posted June 8, 2006 Posted June 8, 2006 I'd love to see a Kid Icarus game too, I haven't played one as of yet and as you say, I love the character and what they could do with the game itself! PS... isn't it Pit?!
DCK Posted June 8, 2006 Posted June 8, 2006 The Wii setup would work so well with this. Nunchuck tilt sensor and analog to fly around, FHC to aim your bow... I hope they'll make it, it'd be a killer app for sure.
raven_blade2006 Posted June 8, 2006 Posted June 8, 2006 There is a real chance. The fans demand it and Pit has returned for SSBB so, why not?
Retro_Link Posted June 8, 2006 Posted June 8, 2006 I think there's a good chance we'll see Kid Icarus on the Wii! It would be a fantastic franchise to bring back for the next generation with the Wii controller! If anyone wants to see a speed-run of the original Kid Icarus, to get some idea of what the game was about, here's a link; http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=7187645883092280282&q=kid+icarus Game looks awesome when you are 3 treasures PIT - 22:50!! Notice the game also uses the same sound heard in Zelda when you get something important - 18:00
jakeee Posted June 8, 2006 Posted June 8, 2006 Mimternet, do you mean KITT or Pit? Sorry... I had to do it :P
The Peeps Posted June 8, 2006 Posted June 8, 2006 Thanks for that Retro Link, I hope they do make a Wii Kid Icarus game
Roronoa Zoro Wii Posted June 8, 2006 Posted June 8, 2006 Mimternet, do you mean KITT or Pit? Sorry... I had to do it :P I guess it`s a typo... Anyway, I say chances are very good seeing how they developed him & used him in SSBB, we`ll wait & see....
Zell Posted June 8, 2006 Posted June 8, 2006 Not very likely IMO. They didnt make a new ice climber game when ice climbers were put in smash, so i dont think this will be any different.
Tellyn Posted June 8, 2006 Posted June 8, 2006 The creator of Pit and the game Kid Icarus was so impressed with the model in SSBB, he asked Sakurai if he could use it in a sequel!
gorrit Posted June 8, 2006 Posted June 8, 2006 The creator of Pit and the game Kid Icarus was so impressed with the model in SSBB, he asked Sakurai if he could use it in a sequel! Ehh.. Source? Still, I don't think it's so farfetched, they might make a new Kid Icarus game (even tho the creator is dead right? Wasn't it Gunpei Yokoi who made it?)
Tellyn Posted June 8, 2006 Posted June 8, 2006 Check through the Smash Bros. thread, it's in one of the Sakurai interviews or how the game came to be made on smashbros.com
Gaijin von Snikbah Posted June 8, 2006 Posted June 8, 2006 I think its very likely. Nintendo is obviously looking into making more franchises.
Nick Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 Not very likely IMO. They didnt make a new ice climber game when ice climbers were put in smash, so i dont think this will be any different. Different situation. There was no demand for an Ice Climber game. There is plenty of, and has been for a long time, demand for a new Kid Icarus title. Ice Climbers and Kid Icarus don't compare.
Mimternet Posted June 9, 2006 Author Posted June 9, 2006 Mimternet, do you mean KITT or Pit? Sorry, I meant Kitt. I accidentally put "Kid Icarus game" when I meant "Knightrider game". Bring on the Hasslehoff! You could comb his mullett with the Wii-mote.

There WILL be a KI game on wii.WHy else would pit be in smash brothers.Its a guarantee!:wink:
Pestneb Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 There WILL be a KI game on wii.WHy else would pit be in smash brothers.Its a guarantee!:wink: Like samus in smash bros guaranteed that N64 metroid game that was so cool? or Like the ice climbers game on the GC? yeah, just like those two games. I think this has more chance though, metroid had rumours during the N64 era, KI had rumours during the GC era, and I can imagine it being pretty good with the wiimote To stray a bit from topic - A knight rider game with the hoffs likeness = cool. They should do it. *goes off to make obligatory petition*

To stray a bit from topic - A knight rider game with the hoffs likeness = cool. They should do it. *goes off to make obligatory petition* techincally ice climbers was released as a NES classic on the gba.And samus HAD to be in it.Anyway metroid fusion on the gba was only a few years off it. Its a feeling id bet on a remake based on miyamotos resonce every time someone asks him WIll there be a new kid I
Konfucius Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 To stray a bit from topic - A knight rider game with the hoffs likeness = cool.They should do it. *goes off to make obligatory petition* There is a game, it was developed by the infamous Davilex, but it has only the Hoff's face in it. http://www.3dgamers.com/games/knightrider/
Nintendork Posted June 10, 2006 Posted June 10, 2006 90% now Reggie is a president. I'd have said about 60% before.. I think he has a lot of clout now, it's his favourite game and famously said if the fans beat the online tom tom enough "they will get it"
Dante Posted June 10, 2006 Posted June 10, 2006 I think there is more chance of getting a Kid Icarus on the NDS
