Uprising came out on this day, 7 years ago
18 years left for the sequel, hang on
Kid Icarus
>wait 18 years bro XD
good job driving an already unfunny joke into the ground
Post the weapon that carried you.
1/2
Forget what it was called but it was the weeb bow.
2/2
Im a sucker for best girl
pandora claws
didn't carry shit though as I'm still unable to beat most stages at intensity 9
Here's a list.
kidicaruswiki.org
I used Beam Claws for pretty much all my 9.0 clears.
>nabbed a pair of these with scf and walking speed mods
Beats the fuck out of Dark Pit.
Did any of you even care about Kid Icarus before this game? Ever played the original games beforehand?
>generic 2D platformer vs cool arcade action shootemup
No
Jesus christ you again? Please stop shitposting these threads.
Weren’t the beam claws like super weak?
The game should've been an action adventure instead of a shooter where every chapter felt extremely repetitive.
I didn’t felt it like that, and most game reviews agree
Happy birthday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
fuck off, nigger
Laser staff forever
Yeah, I think it was a 3D classic on the eshop before KI:U released but it was addicting to get the best ending.
Is it just me or were the ''awkward'' stylus controls not that bad?
only casuals complained about them
How is that shitposting?
Did anyone?
Unironically Magnus club
I got a magnys club with +4 movement speed and like +3 melee damage and holy FUCK it was the best thing ever but had minus range on it, not that it matters for this weapon.
and then I melded it
also, can we just get a switch port for this? I know it wont play well at all without the touchscreen for aiming, but damn I need to play this again
I dunno if its you, but recently there has been this autistic shit that fills KI threads with the same “you are not s real fan if you havent played the original” as if the original was a big thing.
>joke
Fucking zoomers, the original game is the reason why Pit even is in Smash
ign.com
ign.com
>I was well aware that Pit was a popular character in both America and Japan. I tried as best I could to design this version of him in a way that reflected current tastes, so I'm happy to see him so well received.
Don't say shit like "MUH NOBODY CARE ABOUT NES GAME" when it's not true.
>action adventure
no
nintendo already have enough action adventure series, uprising fits an interesting pure action/shooter niche between star fox and splatoon
fuck the weapon crafting system and fuck eye orbitar users
It was a little annoying but honestly I was able to just not aim the reticle and I could still win
on basic bitch difficulty modes
See? He is a little obnoxious little prick
yes, when Brawl was coming out Kid Icarus's representation got me on buying the game on virtual console.
Ok? The NES game is shit and like 30 minutes long. The first area is also ridiculously hard compared to the rest of the game for some reason.
t. zoomer
They were actually top tier.
*ahem*
Shitty controls.
Found the casual
Jokes on you I play harder games that shit Icarus and all those games have good controls.
I know it's his decision and all, and I wouldn't want anything to be "forced", but man is it a shame that Sakurai doesn't make more non-Smash Bros games
Kys
Epic comeback
based
Ok, pedophile shotafag.
Myths and Monster was good.
I still have my copy.
fuckin kek
>seething
>baseless arguments
Peak Yea Forums right here
kino
>don't deny that he is a shotafag
OH NO NO NO HAHAHAHAHAHA, please stop lusting over underage boys.
make me
Hell no, I won't make you, you are fucking gay, I guess only mentally ill shotafags can like a game with such shitty controls as long as the MC is a shota.
What is baseless arguments? Do you even know how to read? Are you a spic?
>he wont deny his shitty argument xdddd
That’s the pinacle of losing an argument. Congrats
>Another thread ruined by casual lefthanded dwarfs whining for muh dual analog.
Let's try again next year.
I played it after I beat Uprising because I loved it so much.
LMAO, thanks for the (You) losers, your game with shitty controls won't get a sequel in your lifetime because you will die of aids first.
Anyways I'm done here, enjoy your game with shitty controls shotafags, I don't want to make you guys more mad or else you could get an aneurysm.
I've played both since.
Projecting much?
The NES kid Icarus sucked.
Thanks loli tree hitler.
*ruins all discussion of your characters*
I love Uprising but it's still incredibly annoying how much special treatment it got in Smash 4.
more like ruined because you guys buy into bad bait easily
Special tratment? 2 new characters, 2 stages and 10~ songs are special treatment?
Meanwhile FE gets 4 new characters (2 of which are DLC) And 2 stages.
Tried the original on VC, didn't like it, tried it again later when the 3D Classics version came out, finally got into it and enjoyed it a lot.
>faggots talking shit about the controls
Zoomers spotted.
If you'd played the proper way, right pinky underneath the 3DS, holding the stylus with the tip of your fingers you would have seen that the game controls flawlessly, but you just decided it wasn't for you because you didn't put the brainpower in.
And this is coming from a left-handed user whose right hand literally shakes when it's holding any sort of pen/pencil.
Where to begin
>2 new characters, the max amount of new characters any series got(before dlc)
>2 new stages when most series only got 1
>One of the three series to get an echo
>One of the three series to have character specific win quotes
>Tons of items and assist trophies
>An absurd amount of smash run enemies
>Palutena getting unique custom moves
>Palutena's guidance being its own mode
>Pit and Dark Pit getting their own unique animation for the hammer, even though it originated from Donkey Kong. This is the only time in the series this ever happens
All for a single game that only sold modestly well. And people still deny that Sakurai shows any bias.
t. shotafag
Are we seriously complaining about that? What gives?
Didn’t you said you were leving this thread? Fuck off
>inb4 zoomer shotafag xDddd
Pit's 17, get fucked.
>Palutena's guidance being its own mode
what are you going on about?
Worse, if he was any age in the original game, he's 25 years older now since they acknowledge the time gap.
>dedicating an entire huge thing in a crossover game to a game that barely anyone has played.
sakurai says that pit is physically a 17 year old
Ah, yeah he is a 1000 year old shota, sure thing m8, still looks like a little boy tho.
Can't miss free (You)s from baited retards.
Wrong, Sakurai stated that if they were humans their ages would be: Pit 13, Palutena 21, Viridi 8 and Phosphora 17
Well if you like (you)s so much, why don't you have some more, you filthy (you) slut. Take these (you)s. Take every single one and bathe in the scent of my stringy (you)s.
LMAO you sound kinda mad user, calm your autism down.
that seems rather old
thats more like it
t. limp-wristed faggot who needed that plastic crutch to be able to play.
The only thing I'm mad about is splatting my creamy (you)s all over your filthy (you)guzzling face. Come on, user, swallow some more of my stinky yellowish (you)s. I know you love it, you filthy boy. I'll only be calmed once you have drained me entirely of my (you)s and I have (you)s and (you)s to spare, baby!
Hahaha, your faggotry is showing, can't say that I'm surprised considering that you like shit Icarus so much to go into an autistic overdrive.
You are the one swallowing my nasty (you)s. You are not a man. You are not even human. You are just an object, nothing but a receptacle for me to dump my slimy (you)s into.
she killed millions
Where are my Palm Bros at?
Realistically speaking I'm simply pixels on your screen, pixels that make you particularly mad because you don't want to accept that your game has a shitty control layout, so shitty a piece of plastic comes with the physical game so you can play it, they knew the controls were that bad.
Right here nigga. Dash cont fire for life.
So light
so fast
and that homing
>18 years left
I CAN'T FUCKING WAIT
[/spoiler]for a game that will never come out, because Sakurai has deconfirmed both a sequel and a port. He will forever be a slave to Smash Bros and and nobody at Nintendo will acknowledge this game ever happened. Retro has never worked on Kid Icarus and never will. I am sorry. Rip the band aid off before its too late.[/spoiler]
Damn, that spoiler mistake. I'm too high to be browsing Yea Forums.

I could give a rat's ass about Kid Icarus. I just want to help you get all those sticky (you)s you desire so much, but now your being so ungrateful, I don't think you even deserve my (you)s. Beg for my (you)s that you want so much. Beg and bark like a seal.
>he got so mad that he stopped replying
You amuse me user.
>tfw 3DS shoulder buttons broke in 2013
>never picked up Uprising because of that
How fun was it anons?
its my favorite game of all time. I would buy a brand new 3ds just to play it if I had to.
SO MUCH fucking fun. Even more so because up to launch, they only showed off a third of the story content.
Black Club for the first few chapters. The combat really didn't click with me until I used it and realized how diverse each weapons moveset could be
Phosphora Bow and Laser Claws class late-game, I think. just being able to hold the button and get a constant stream of damage was great.
Pit is cute!
My niggas
thats the same nigga
Shhhhhhh
>he only has one of a console
Also KIU is fucking unplayable on the XLs
How come no one ever talks about the great music
youtube.com
NINJA PALM USERS RISE UP
I got a good one as a rare drop and it carried me fairly far. Sometimes my 6 ranged star Dark Pit Staff made a guest appearance
It got snubbed fucking hard as far as award nominations go, but Yea Forums and such praise the music quite a bit. The size of the OST is immense, especially for a handheld game at the time.
>tfw still have the club nintendo AR cards
are they worth anything nowadays?
I also have the FE:A artbook from the preorder
The pvp is so unbalanced. There's all kind of shit that's nearly impossible to counter.
That confusion effect.
They were the fucking shit in multiplayer
Speak of the devil.
Shit was hilarious during the launch, though. Fucking MEGA LASERS everywhere as soon as the match started.
>huge thing
It was intended to be an Easter egg
Do people still play this?
Wish I still had the MSPaint comic of this
Sometimes
Regardless of how people may react, if you could add any character to Smash from KI, who would you go for? There’s a lot of good choices:
Magnus, Viridi, Medusa, Hades, and maybe even Phosphora.
Yeah, and art is still being made of it.
Given the whole villain shtick they went with for Ultimate, Medusa would be a shoo-in to rival Palutena. Hades would be great too but I'd rather they pick a classic villain.
FEAR THE WRATH OF MY PYROBLASTERS SPACE WEIRDOS!
Hades, no contest. But as a stage instead of a playable character.
Noice.
I played and beat the original game on the Famicom Disk System before they even announced Kid Icarus Uprising was a thing (yes, I actually own a Famicom and Disk System).
>yes, I actually own a Famicom and Disk System
timestamp or it didn't happen faggot
Where is this even from? I don't remember this in Uprising.
>I never learned how to RE-E-EAD
This still makes me giggle like a moron
>Uprising was 7 years ago
YAMERO
I really liked this game. It's a borderline classic that never quite makes it to that level. Remake it on switch, fix the probs and you've for a classic.
I had Kid Icarus on NES, it was crap. I bought the 3DS, it also sucked.
>Remake it on switch
kill yourself
TO HELL WITH THE MELEE CONTROLS MY GOD I HATE IT SO MUCH
I never understood why people think the first game sucked. It wasn't perfect by any means but I still had a lot of fun with it. It's just really hard.
>borderline classic
it's a straight up modern nintendo classic, easily on par with all the other historical franchises transitions to 3D
Is this good enough?
>tfw we probably are going to dead before the sequel comes out
I don't know why it posted like that. It's showing in the correct way on my desktop.
meme aside I'm pretty sure we'll see a new kid icarus game on switch
I can imagine if Pit got a human gf. Palutena would tease Pit about it for a bit. However she would slowly go mad with the realization that her boy toy is being stolen from her. By some lowly human wench no less!
I'm gonna need the same pic but with your hand on it too
Why do you need my hand on it?
Just do it
Nah. I don't need you tracking my by fingerprint or something.
DON'T DO IT, user! YOU DON'T KNOW WHO YOU'RE MESSING WITH!
take it palm down then
I'll do it if you actually give me a good reason for me to do it. That timestamp should've been proof enough.
here's mine, now show me yours
Sakurai is busy with smash Bros and since the dlc was well accepted that would be take like 3 years
So no, probably for the switch successor
Seriously he need to make more characters,story, weapons,controls,HD graphics and some shit
So yeah, Hades was right
I don't believe in this meme but I still cracked up.
No thanks! I'm not attracted to 3D girls.
hahaha he thinks that's a real girl
That just makes it creepy then.
nice cat
How the FUCK do i get good weapons? Everything i get has like 2 stars in a stat, maybe 2 1/2 if i'm lucky
They can go the splatoon aiming route, which would be way less painful
Pink Stockings nigga is a notorious trapfag. Just ignore him.
Sakurai doesn't have to make it.
He doesn't make Kirby anymore, does he?
>girls
i made this image, so glad to see someone save it
The best game on the 3DS and the absolute peak of the genre.
>nintendo had a perfect opportunity to port this game to the wii u and preserve the touch controls
>they fucking blew it
What are the odds Ninty will create a touch pad peripheral just for this game?
Why couldn't they just use gyro controls like Splatoon does? It wouldn't take THAT much reprogramming to do.
you know I actually thought about it but it probably wouldn't be financially viable
it's one thing to ship a game with an added piece of plastic but a touchpad is a different story
No, but the game's higher difficulties aren't built with anything less than stylus precise aiming in mind.
Have you ever played Splatoon 1/2 with Gyro Controls? You can easily get precision aiming with those if you practice.
Besides, Uprising had gigantic target reticles with enemies having mile-wide hitboxes last time I played it.
6R
0M Hawkeye Bow for multiplayer
+4 Range
+3 Dash
Slipshot/Warp/Reflect Barrier
You could hear the SEETHE from across the stage.
Could a sequel even do this game justice? What would you all like to see in a sequel that would make it better than Uprising?
Fix the garbage melee controls
>used a feather for the Clear Boss Rush on HARD years ago because despite clearing all the chapters on 9.0 Boss Rush is an absolute bitch
>seriously, couldn't even get past Gaol or Dark Pit
>come back and decide to give it an honest try now
>manage to fuse 5 star Artillery Claws with PLUS 8 DEFENSE
>steamroll 9.0 chapters like it's nobody's business
>can actually make it to Phosphora and even Pit's Body
Any mad lads here actually do it? Got any tips?
What weapon are you using?
read nigga
The 5 star Artillery Claws with +8 defense. No other mods unfortunately.
I crafted two 6 Star ACs (one with Stand Cont Fire +4) but they don't have any defense modifiers.
but seriously though how do i get good weapons when my depth perception is so fucking awful i can barely survive 7.0 sky battles
What powers do you have?
Earn a ton of low-level weapons and fuse them into a single strong weapon.
What's a good way of farming? The "best" weapon i have is a Volcano Arm with something like 3* ranged 2 1/2* melee with less range than a weak stream of piss.
>more playable characters with different playstyles
>seamless transition between air and land sections
>better melee options
>dedicated jump button and the level design changes it implies
Meanwhile I'm still waiting for a third Kid Icarus game.
Health Recovery 4
Autoreticle 1 for Arlon
Brief Invincibility 3
Either Super Armor 3 or Playing Dead 1, they're the same size
Effect or Crisis recovery 1 in the last space
imposible to play on this thing
Play the first couple of chapters around the default difficulty. Also remember to check the shop. It'll be your main source of high-level mods if you can't get through the harder levels and difficulty.
I can reliably do 6.0, stuff above that starts to get too iffy. As for the shop, it's pretty frustrating seeing a bunch of shit being 50k hearts and higher, saw a 150k heart one once
Fuck Autoreticle, if you have good eyes you can still see him in the dark. If you're good at avoiding damage, consider Energy Charge.
There's a mod and a power for getting more hearts. Try getting it on a pair beam claws with a standing cont fire boost.
I honestly have no idea what I used for the main game. But for online, I used a Tiger Claw with high Melee and Paralysis as well as a Black Club with high homing and ranged damage, with Bumble Bee and the giant laser as powers.
>Beam Claws
Call me a shitter, but the fuckhuge beam that thing spits out completely fucked up sky battles for me, as if it was covering everything i was supposed to dodge. How do i become proficient?
>dedicated expansion on multiplayer mode for longevity
>control and playstyle differences between melee, short, and long ranged
>different "boss" characters for the 3v3 mode beyond just pits, like make Magnus the melee boss, pit the midrange boss and palutena the long ranged one or something like that
>new characters
>new story obviously, the first one expanded so much on the universe that a new game could be anything really, we still barely explore some of the worlds we're introduced to for only a few boss fights
>streamlined weapon crafting and customization/equipment systems
>can probably just take out the powers system and integrate something more interesting in its place
I WANNA FUCK PIT SO BAD FUUUUUUUUUUCK LITERALLY THE ONE AND ONLY MALE I HAVE EVER WANTED TO FUG HE'S SO CUTE AND HIS SPATS ARE SO HOT FUUUUCKKK
I'd love 1 of 2 ideas for the sequel
>use Factor 5's scrapped story for their Wii KI game but keep Uprising's tone
>take down the Titans
Memorize enemy positions, and kill them the moment they're in range.
Also it doesn't gotta be beam claws, just anything that combines good mobility, good firing rate, and at least decent reach.
Got me almost every 9.0 except for Pits Body, Hades Heart, The Three Trials, and Hades. These ol girls with petrification were great.
I think this game would be much better if it was in HD. I mean, the graphics are so grainy, it's hard to really settle into it.
Everytime i play this game i constantly shift around, trying to find a comfortable way to actually play. If any game is deserving of an hd rerelease, it's this
I like to play with the music off.
>>use Factor 5's scrapped story for their Wii KI game but keep Uprising's tone
Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't the scrapped Kid Icarus Wii plot basically Palutena giving Pit the boot for being an asshole? He would be talking to himself to whole game without her...
Remember that one level where if you take too long to beat the boss, Palutena gets sick of waiting and kills you both?
I had two separate Artillery Claws that got me through the entirety of 9.0.
>would be perfect ported to switch
>Samurai: "No"
>Palutena gets sick of waiting and kills you both
I don't remember that at all. What chapter was that?
she kills the Hewdraw for you in Chapter 3, but I don't know where you're getting the idea she kills you.
This, that's my only complaint.
Chapter 3, when you're fighting Hewdraw in the air.
You get a gameover when it happens, so I think it's safe to assume Pit dies.
>You get a gameover when it happens, so I think it's safe to assume Pit dies.
Oh shit never mind, I'm retarded.
To be fair she could always just revive him like she always does.
7 years? Holy shit time flies fast. This was my second 3DS game after RE:Revelations. and to this day is still in my 3x3. I wish Nintendo had sold the AR cards in my country, but atleast I got Palutena, Pit and Dark Pit with the game.
>got medusa, thanatos, and poseidon with nintendo power
>gave them to a friend because I didn't have the game yet
>still in my 3x3
based
I think Pit's journey through the new post-Hades and Medusa Underworld would be the best. Maybe throw in another pantheon of gods and you've got a plot.
>Dark Pit
>"Man I bet it's character theme and not the superior flight stage theme"
>It is
Absolutely based
I think this OST is one of the best Nintendo OSTs of all time, it's so fucking good and matches the gameplay so perfectly. Posting best track (and chapter for that matter)
>Hades mock any character that loses a stock
>Hades fucks with the stage all the time just for fun
>smash 3DS had both the flight theme and the regular version
>smash ultimate only has the inferior regular version
Fucking why
>tfw dog and girl chapter
I still wonder if Hades killed her parents
>superior flight stage theme
my fucking nigga
Freeze +4 made the Magnus club's back dash attack stupidity op
>That utter confusion as to what the fuck is happening
>That suddenly playing as a little girl and a fucking dog
>That playable Magnus
>That timeskip drop
>That Pit boss fight
>That Palutena reveal
>That GOAT music
Pure fucking kino holy shit
>When you recognize the waiting room theme
Anybody else hate Clubs? Their animations are just so clumsy.
I don't like them either. I only like the magnus one with quickcharge
only abused them in online
Okay Palu
I love clubs except for the fact that air battles with them kind of suck, you just hold the button and move in a circle.
But I love me some slow, meaty hits
The GOAT right here
