Kid Icarus' fate was sealed as soon as it was brought back by a guy who hates making sequels.

Well, at least they remembered it enough to give it a reference in the Mario Movie. In the beginning, we see Mario playing the original Kid Icarus in his room.

I mean, Hades did jokingly say at the end of Uprising that he has 25 years until the next sequel to figure out how to come back, and seeing as it's only been 12 years since then, we can't really expect much in the meantime.

I absolutely love Kid icarus Uprising People keep comparing the main character Pit with Sora from Kingdom Hearts! Sora and Pit even had a deathBattle!

Man, I don't need a sequel. I'd just love Uprising to come to Switch with more comfortable controls

I hate to burst your bubble, but I wouldn’t consider Kid Icarus well known, and a million in sales is decent, but not good considering this game sold much less than games like Mario Maker 3DS

Being fully honest, though, Uprising is a perfect swan song for the Kid Icarus series. It's rough around the edges, but it still feels like a great love letter to the series.

Sakurai was only part of development for one game and like you said, didn't even realize he would develop using Kid Icarus as an IP in the beginning. I don't think the series necessarily dies with him, just that you need some other people willing to follow suit.

Maybe this game was a sign that a game needs to offer more than just overused 4th-wall breaking jokes...

Good Video! Bean I remember hearing alot other video talk about of Kid Icarus and how it was a NES game later came to the 3DS and I hope the game get rerelease on Switch so I can play on the Go like on the 3DS all thought year ago.

Yeah, remember when you went to space and destroyed an alien civilization with the help of a sun god.

I think the series is done as far as Sakurai making more is concerned. But I don’t think Kid Icarus, as an IP, is necessarily done for.

Nice to see another person talking about Kid Icarus. Here hoping for a port to the Switch 2 or a new entry.

When I was watching this, I thought "I am probably watching a KZreadr with a high number of subscribers and views". Your pace, editing style, script, and personality were all on par with channels that have high-production videos. Then I looked at your views and channel and said "No waaaay"

As someone who just started playing this game, you have no idea how much I've cried and grieved this game after finding out its basically the only one that will ever exist😭

I'm afraid of what could happen to Viridi, so I'm okay with not getting a sequel.

Kid icarus uprising was a fantastic game if it ever get a port or sequel i’ll love to play it but I hope to see future games that plays like uprising ether a indie or group company that use kid icarus uprising as one of its inspirations l

This editing is soo good. Keep up the amazing work dude

Great vid! Amazing editing you got a far future on this platform

I tell ppl that this is one of my fav games that I ever played ever since I was a kid, but no one knows about it and me tryna explain it is not doing it justice lmao. Would be crazy if they dropped a new switch version of the game or sum, but if this game was a PC game or sum the potential would be crazy for visuals and etc, but that realistically wouldn't happen ofc.
