This is the box art for Kid Icarus: Uprising. It is beautiful. You should bow down to it and worship it in all its amazingness. It’s also good that the game itself is fantastic. It was fantastic when I played it back in January and it was fantastic when I played it at E3. You should be excited for it.

    Awesome

  6. miiworld2

    At first I didn’t like it.Cuz I was hoping for the one artwork with Pit running and Palutena standing behind.

    BUT I’m getting used to it.

    1. Belinni

      At first I was confused, but now I get the direction of the box art.

      Either way, when Nintendo makes a box art that’s actually drawn and not made in 3D it usually means they’ve payed special attention to the title.

  7. adus1991

    Imho ZEldas boxart looked way better than this

  8. CrimsonalCore

    THAT IS THE SEXYIEST ART BOX EVER<3

    I'll buy two if I can. O3O One for collection~ And one for playing. owo

  9. Lia

    DEFINITELY DAY ONE!!!

    Hate the font they chose for ‘Uprising’ though.

    1. Trev

      Yeah, I was thinking the exact same thing. Glad someone agrees with me.

    2. etnate

      It’s supposed to be a sort of Greek font, I assume, keeping in line with the theme of the game. Theoretically it’s correct and should be liked. Perhaps in practice it is not.

  10. UGLY, Project Sora!!!

    U – ltimate
    G – oodness,

  11. Auzzie Wingman

    Is it just me, or does it reek of David’s extremely rare bias in here? Whatever it is, it’s intoxicating.

    1. SUPERULTRAMAN

      David didn’t write this

    2. Josh

      @SUPERULTRAMAN It says written by David Turnbull under it.

    3. Brian (1246 8880 1183)

      The dudes played it twice. I think I trust his opinion, and it is an opinion, not baise. Personal preference, and I how he’s right. I’m excited for this game XD

    4. Brian (1246 8880 1183)

      Oh damn now I look a fool. *bias, *hope he’s right. Lol, I said gat damn! Haha

    5. Ruīji !

      @SUPERULTRAMAN *whisper voice* ~Fail.

    6. adrian12369

      this is his most anticipated 3ds game

  12. millsy

    I will get this even though I haven’t played any of the series. Someone gimme their opinion.

    1. Kevin

      There’s not too much to play of Kid Icarus, you’re gonna enjoy it big time. But I would suggest you to download the original either on the Wii’s VC or as a 3D Classic to get into the series from now.

    2. Gastrogenous

      Well you don’t need to play the other games because this is nothing like it, but based on many previous I’ve read I’d say this game is really good.

    3. Brian (1246 8880 1183)

      You don’t want to play the original. had good elements back in the day but fails compared to todays standards, completely fails. lemme put it this way, its from the era where a gamepro section or straight up guide was a MUST to beat a game! No internet forums at your disposal, only what you could get your hands on. So glad to see pits return though! For an announced game before the 3ds hit the market, it better be more than what we all expect… I think it will be. If you saw the trailer on eshop, its graphically pleasing, for sure. Hope this helps :)

  13. Recoil

    I like everything except for that Jurassic Park font they used for “Uprising”, it doesn’t seem to fit in at all.

    1. Gastrogenous

      I liked the old logo better, but I’m getting over it already, although its more like a Greek font.

    2. Mike S

      HOW DARE YOU PUT DOWN THE EPICNESS THAT IS THE JURASSIC PARK FONT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Lol JK XD

  14. Omarsonic9

    david was writing this artice about few minutes ago..

    RIGHT? :O

  15. Blaze

    I never thought I’d ever see the day where I laid eyes on the box art for a new Kid Icarus game. Gotta love Nintendo.

  16. J. Severe

    Generic, but beautiful. I can tell I’m going to love this game.

  17. holonboy

    PREORDERED

  18. Poutingyoshi

    3D mode for 7+, usually 10+? XD

    1. it says +7 on all my game boxes

  19. That’s how you give a game your best, folks. Game content, game box art, and all.

    1. RockyTem

      i can’t imagine what kind of content they’re gunna put in there cuz after all, action adventure games virtually have no extra content other than the actual game itself

  20. canthia

    Had this game on reserve from gamestop for the longest. About time hopefully no more delays.

  21. ed

    Pre-ordering

    Cover looks great btw

  22. Waiting since E3 2010!

  23. Bill

    Personally, I thought the camera sucked when you were on the ground. I really hope all the delays made it more intuitive and less crummy.

    The air sequences were good, but man did the land stink.

  24. Mike S

    I want to play a demo first, just to see if I really like it.

  25. Bespinben

    Good stuff. Now we’re one step closer to beginning the development of Super Smash Bros. 4.

    1. If were lucky, we’ll hear more about it on E3 2012.

  26. Weng K

    DAY BEFORE RELEASE PURCHASE CUZ I LIVE IN HK AND THE SHOP PPL SOMEHOW GET THEIR HANDS ON IT BE4 THE LAUNCH DATE ;D

    1. Kazuki

      All shops get it before launch date, your shop just likes to sell it earlier than the rest.

  27. Omarsonic9

    looks awesome but.. im excited for it cuz when this finishes they will start working on SSBB :D

    and Im a fan of mario,sonic,zelda.. I dont wanna be a more fan of other characters o.o i have to buy every game then.. LOLOL

  28. greedy gamer

    need to get

  29. Han Solo

    Best boxart I can think of. Looks amazing.

    Definitely getting day one.

  30. mariofan3ds

    looks nice

  31. Mah boi link

    Honestly, I don’t like it. :/

    1. I agree. I hate the logo placement. :C

    2. Game Over

      YOU DARE TO DISLIKE THIS?!
      YOU MUST DIE!

  32. BigFatGoronDude

    Zelda box-art? No. This? No. Beyond the Labyrinth? Yes!

  33. I need a surgeon. My jaw just fell off. F****** Beautiful.

  34. Areuto

    My penis grew 10 inches longer

  35. Free of Birth

    I always knew it would look this good.

  36. theKIUfan

    i printed a wallet size version of this. it now is staying in my wallet forever

  37. 3DS Strider

    They didn’t change his face to make face into a frown? I guess NoA learned a lesson from Kirby.

  38. 091Jako

    Day One Purchase!!!!!!!

  39. Knuckles

    so does that mean that the enemies in sub space in brawl are from the kid Icarus universe ( if you don’t know what I mean look at the eye ball things I think they are called phyesesh)

  40. mariofan3ds

    yes

  41. Craig

    I’d love it if it wasn’t an on-the-rails game… The only on-the-rails game I like is Lylat Wars (or the stupid retitle Starfox 64)… If it was a freely controlled game in the vein of Zelda (obviously not too similar) then I’d love it. I even find the control in Smash Bros. to be a better option. Although I am impressed by the story and models/textures.

  42. Kayriss

    Kid Icarus Franchise making a comeback with this one, Gonna be on Zelda fandom level soon just watch.

  43. person

    I hope the EU cover is the game…

  44. Animefan7

    i want this game so much and this box art is amazing.

  45. joserachi96

    ikr! the box art looks better then i though it would be! *-*

  46. damn, now thats sexy.

  47. person

    Which one is better, this or EU/JP Zelda cover? :P I like both, they’d look nice next to each other.

  48. It’s looks Boosie Bad Ass awesome.

    An easy 10 out of 10 AAA title.

    And is it just me or are all 1st party 3DS games Rated ages 10 & up.

    Like Zelda & Star Fox and even 3rd party games that you would think would get an E, get an E 10 Rating instead.

    Well, whatever it is, I like it.

    SHABLAGOO!

    1. person

      Star fox has 7+ rating in EU, I think it has all ages rating in Japan.

    2. The Japanese ratings make sense to me for all countries.

      MINT BERRY CRUNCH!

  49. ballsack

    looks like crap

  50. GERRELLEY

    Oh, what a coincidence… I saw this exact same boxart on my wishlist. :3

  51. Lance

  55. The logo on this boxart looks fake.

    1. Peter

      Err… No, it’s real.That new (better) logo came out months ago.

    2. person

      It’s based on the Japanese logo, which came out like over a year ago? I think 2010.

  56. Peter

    This game was fantastic when I played it back in February and fantastic when I played it at the Nintendo Connection Tour.

  57. random guy
