Horrible, Kid Icarus was one of my favorite games from the NES era.:facewall:

The classic Zelda and classic Metroid games from the NES are two of my favorite, still replayable games to this day.

Metroid Prime 1 & 3, A Link to the Past, Ocarina of Time, and Twilight Princess are absolutely stunning examples of why just because the originals were pricelessly awesome that new games in the IP shouldn't be developed at later dates.

I'll be getting a N3DS, probably, for Mario Kart and Star Fox. I'll probably pick this up aswell after seeing some more info when it gets closer to launch.

I wouldn't be so quick to call this ruined... take the Metroid series (which I'm referencing since, as many should know, Kid Icarus and Metroid ran on the same engine/programming) for example. The series became a 3D Adventure/Action game with Metroid Prime, and it was arguably an improvement. That, and the most action Pit has seen lately is without a doubt within Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

I played and enjoyed the original Kid Icarus games on NES and Gameboy, and I welcome the changes. Amongst the current generation, I think that going back to a game as old as Kid Icarus and trying to change the minimum would be more harmful than good. See the Mario series for example--Super Mario Galaxy just cannot be compared to the NES. classic, Super Mario Bros, and yet it's still an amazing game.

I look forward to its release.

dude, what are you talking about ruined, the only way they could ruin it is if the game was 3 hours long, the graphics are choppy, and he makes lame jokes through out the entire game.
game looks pretty legit right now, especially on the 3DS which im having a double thoughts about

Yes I think it looks horrible. I don't like side scrollers that switch to 3d. Metroid Prime and Mario 64/Galaxy are not my favorites either.Not to mention the voices...ugh. If I wanted to hear squeaky voices I'd watch a garbage anime.
