GP: "'Sorry to keep you waiting!' When these words were first uttered at Nintendo's E3 2010 press conference, they were quickly followed by a certain flightless angel, who had been missing-in-action for the past 20 years, swooping onto the scene to announce a new Kid Icarus game. Needless to say, not many people were expecting this. But our expectations are meaningless in this case, because it happened.
After all these years, we finally return to Skyworld in Kid Icarus: Uprising for the Nintendo 3DS. So does this long overdue sequel ascend into greatness, or do Pit's wings burn as the game comes crashing down into a pitfall (get it?)? Let's find out, shall we?"
BLG writes: "While it didn’t sell as well as the Nintendo DS, the Nintendo 3DS was nonetheless a wonderful system. And, while this may be a hot take, it’s easily my favorite handheld. Even more than a decade removed from launch, the system’s library has so many titles that feel as fresh today as they did back at release. While it was hard to narrow down, these 30 Nintendo 3DS games are emblematic of the system’s success."
From Zelda to Metroid, Nintendo Everything goes over the top five Nintendo franchises that have made the jump from 2D to 3D the best.
Nintendo has always been known for flaunting fine-tuned gameplay over full-blown narratives, however, Kid Icarus: Uprising literally flipped the script as it shined with its writing, story, and characters above all else.
