Blank0000 Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 (edited) http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Earth-collector/Drawings/awesome.pngSo, as we all know, the new game Kid Icarus for the 3DS is coming up. Its pretty much shaping up to be one of the best games for 3DS. It will have extremely good Multi-Player and an epic single player. Now I personally will be pre-ordering it and getting on launch. This will be the topic to disscuss anything and everything about the game! Also, once realesed this will be the topic that holds the Multi player disscussions.Multi-Player is going to be one big crazy mess if we don't make some BZP ranking, assuming they don't have leader boards and communities in the Game... So I suggest we send around friend codes once the game comes out and if you want you can post them here ahead of time, if you want, just give them to me and I will enter them up here. Just a heads up, if communities do end up showing up, then this will be for nothing, but still helpful non the less.3DS FC'sBjoacx, 1289-8761-2234So have at it!

Just A Dot Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 I wish it didn't keep Sakurai from working on Smash Bros. earlier, but Uprising looks amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blendercat Toa of Coldplay Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 It does look pretty awesome. I watched the trailer about weapons, and was jealous the entire time. I too will be pre-ordering it, hoping for a sweet bonus. Quote I figure I may as well do PBZPs now. But, I have a terrible work ethic,so they may take a while.

Just A Dot Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 I think I pre-ordered it nearly a year ago... wasn't this supposed to be a launch title?I am glad that we get a free download of Kid Icarus (3D Classic) for preordering. I wish Nintendo did this for more games. I mean, a 3D Classic for Luigi's Mansion when preordering LM2? Or SMB3 with 3D Land? Or even Smash 64 with Smash 3DS? That would be awesome.

Blessed Blade Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 No, it was simply supposed to be released last year. It was just that people assumed that it'd be a launch title. =PAlso, you guys should be glad you get a free download for it. =P *Offer isn't available here in Canada* =( Quote The Pokemon TopicPokemon: Rise of the Rockets - Rise of the Rockets Discussion Topic - Rise of the Rockets Side Stories Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blank0000 Posted February 29, 2012 Author Share Posted February 29, 2012 Blade:What do you guys get there? And also, I wonder if they will make communities like in MK 7, if so, then I will probably put it down here on this topic...

Blessed Blade Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 It's a pre-order bonus, so they probably will simply hand you them like any other preorder bonus.Then again, it's EB Games, so they might just open the box and stick the cards in there. =PI would've liked the code, though, since free games are always good. But instead, Canada gets the short end of the stick.

Blessed Blade Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 Yeah, no. I'm not driving for like a day just to preorder a game, and then drive all the way back then when it releases. That's not 'free'; and I could just get the game for cheaper. =P That is, of course, assuming that NoA has the sense to put the game up for actual, you know, purchase here. >_> Quote The Pokemon TopicPokemon: Rise of the Rockets - Rise of the Rockets Discussion Topic - Rise of the Rockets Side Stories Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-D-D-Ddude Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 If I remember correctly, in the 2010 Nintendo Power E3 coverage, Sakurai said the game was intentionally given a simple design to get it out as close to launch as possible. It was scheduled to come out last year, though. That and Luigi's Mansion 2 :I was a little iffy on the game when it was first announced, but it's shaping up really well. The control scheme is a little worrying, and I'm a lefty so I'll probably have to get the Circle Pad Pro. I have the game preordered on Amazon, so I'll probably get the 3D Classics game before the game itself xDI'm really impressed with what Sakurai has done with such a simple concept; that man is the worst perfectionist the industry has ever seen.

Blessed Blade Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 1. Yeah; well; I don't think things were originally planned as they went back with last year's launch. =P(Well, let's look at the signs... Black and White released right before the console here, which was kinda a shocker, and then games that were said to be launch games were out a few months, indicating they kinda rushed a little. Like the browser and eShop.)2. Get it anyway; you'll need it for when Monster Hunter gets here, whether it be 3G or 4. =P3. Yeah, you gotta admit this has been shaping up way differently than probably anyone predicted. xD Quote The Pokemon TopicPokemon: Rise of the Rockets - Rise of the Rockets Discussion Topic - Rise of the Rockets Side Stories Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JiMing Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 OH MY GOSHI WANT THIS GAME SO BADThe trailers I saw for the game, including multiplayer are just epic! And you can get a free game with it too! The AR cards seem decent, but I just love EVERYTHING about the game, and I haven't even played it! Who else thinks the Fiend's Cauldron is an interesting concept?

Just A Dot Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Please explain the Cauldron thing to me. I have never heard of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JiMing Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 OK, the Fiend's Cauldron is where you change the difficulty. You bet a certain amount of hearts (which are the game's currency, in case you didn't know) in order to do so. The higher the difficulty, the more hearts you earn, and you get better weapons at the end of each level. However, if you die, you lose the hearts you bet, and the difficulty automatically lowers. So in short, you should play at the highest difficulty you can manage, and try and develop a strategy so that you can revisit levels on higher difficulties to get the better rewards I mentioned.

Blank0000 Posted March 5, 2012 Author Share Posted March 5, 2012 I thought that its probably one of the best ideas ever, although, Kingdom Hearts uses that same kind of idea... I guess they should get most of the credit... Quote Bjoacx: Lost in Gaming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King of the Madness Isles Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 I'm exicted for Uprising. It was the game that convinced me to buy a 3DS...at launch...because I thought it'd be out sooner. But, eh. Only...18 more days. I actually don't have the money for it, though...well...I can get it...long story...Not so sure, when I get money very soon, if I should buy Uprising, save it for Xenoblade Chronicles, get Saints Row: The Third...Not sure, so many games to get...Anyways, it seems like a cool game, and the Fiend's Cauldron is an interesting system. I love how Nintendo always innovates, but I usually like to try their innovations before declaring them good, as occasionally their ideas sound a lot better than they work (Virtual Boy, anyone? Course, they reused that idea and perfected it just about...). Quote "The moral of the story is, I chose a half measure when I should have gone all the way. I'll never make that mistake again.

Terminus Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 (edited) Only thing I don't like so far is the lack of a dual-analog option, because I despise touchscreen aiming in shooters. Otherwise, seems great.Also AR cards will apparently be sold in packs, so that will be interesting...Also, anyone else seen the short animated video on Nintendo Video yet? They will apparently be done by a bunch of Japanese animation studios (the first was by I.G. Studios, and there's one coming from SHAFT, the studio behind Puella Magi Madoka Magica, which was probably the best anime of 2011), and there will apparently be quite a few of them.

In that game you can make the heartless have more or less health, if they have less health the item dropwill be more frequent...

This difficulty change is basically a betting system, you win hearts for winning on higher difficulties, but it also makes more enemies, with different layouts appear, and some events or bosses only happen on certain difficulties. Finally, you get better weapons on higher difficulties.Re:Coded's 'cheats' are very different.

Terminus Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Famitsu hands out perfect scores like candy. I always wait for international scores, as I think Nintendogs got around a 7.5 in the US. Most recent same score I can think of is Xenoblade, which got perfect scores across Japan and Europe. However, I still think KI:U will score pretty high (although not perfect since people over here really want dual analog control options, instead of only the touchscreen).

Didn't like the touchscreen controls in Bionicle: Heroes and Metroid Prime Hunters, I much preferred the button controls.Anyways I'll have to buy the CPP since I'm a lefty, so a dual-analog thing should have been included because of all the leftys who will buy the CPP.
