Miyamoto confirms Kid Icarus... Almost!

Tyranitar24 | July 16, 2008 | News | Wii E3 2008

There were a lot sources pointing to a Kid Icarus game being displayed at E3, but sadly, those sources were wrong. IGN asked Shigeru Miyamoto, the Senior Managing Director of Nintendo, where the Kid Icarus game is and he said he couldn't comment because he is not the producer of any Kid Icarus games.

In the months leading up to the Electronic Entertainment Expo 2008, sources told IGN that a Wii remake of Kid Icarus was underway and destined to be unveiled at the event. Unfortunately, a day prior to the show, we learned that said project would not be on display after all. So when we met up with Nintendo mastermind Shigeru Miyamoto, we had Kid Icarus on the mind. Our first question was, simply, where is Kid Icarus for Wii?

Miyamoto smiled. "Yeah, I'm not the producer of any Kid Icarus titles," he said coyly. "There are some people who have some different ideas, but since I'm not the producer I can't comment on anything."

Great, another franchise that Nintendo will milk until it's as dry as the Sahara. Eh, might as well enjoy the games while they're fresh.

Yeah the original wasn't as great as people remember it to be, but it would be cool if they made a unique side-scrolling game.

  The original is hard as hell, it pisses me off. I realize that it's a fun game, and yeah, it's good. But it's not as amazing as some people say.
