I'm really hoping the 3DS can do FSAA...

Other than that I'm excited. Worried about the 5 minute thing though.

The goddess said in the trailer that the wings only last 5 minutes before disintergrating in the sun.

Meh, this is just a rehash of some ****ty old NES game. I don't want it, nor do I get excited about it running in 3D in the palm of my hand.

Get some more then! That's a lot longer than any other power-up I've ever known.

You need to see your doctor to check you still have a pulse :-)

Kid Icarus on the nes is a classic. Still plays great today, can't wait for this.

I was taking the piss, btw.

Euch just read this game uses Stylus + analogue pad controls.

Seriously Nintendo, Why the hell didn't you put a second analogue pad on the right?

Before righties say "but controllers always use both hands, just adapt!", Grab a controller with just your right hand and do figure 8 motions with the thumb stick. With your left hand, write "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog".

Now reverse hands and compare the hand writing.

Reckon that might just be how the game explains switching between flying levels and ground sections. I doubt it'll be an issue.

Looks like they finally noticed the game would be near unplayable for lefties. Sadly, can't see them doing anything other than using the facebuttons or tilt sensor as a replacement. Neither of which are especially good options.

Also, that guy with the big sword looks like he came from a completely different game, what's up with the character design?

Yeah I thought he was a joke or something. A cameo from a game I didn't know
