#KidIcarusUprising - Ігри
It’s a CRIME that we haven’t gotten a sequel or a remaster to it yet, it’s such charming and enjoyable game with its silly antics and fourth wall breaks and actually gives the series a world
You may want to edit that comment
I think there isnt gonna be a second one because sakurai dislikes making sequels or something
If Sakurai doesn't do it, someone at Nintendo should; I'm sure there's someone there competent enough to succeed
True but then it wont have sakurais touch to the game
Yeah it's probably mainly due to the fact Sakurai's always busy.
A friend of mine describes Kid Icarus: Uprising as "the best way to get carpal tunnel syndrome"
As someone who played this game three years in a row, almost every day, I would say no, it depends on how you hold the stylus and if you grew up playing a lot of ds and 3ds games that used the stylus cause then you would get used to holding the stylus and 3ds and feel no pain at all, at least that’s how it worked for me
@@dinoshotgun you got some mad skills dude, I'll give you that. 😲
Just hold the attack button in ranged combat.
@@dinoshotgun Yeah I think Uprising's controls get a bad rap. Propping up the right side of the 3DS with my stylus hand takes the strain off.
Left-handed players are kind of SOL though
@@alexanderthomas3187 Same. I have put well over 300+ hours of this game back when I was on the school bus and never really had any issues by holding the game like this.
I loved how they managed to actually make memorable the motherly-bossy relationship between Pit and Palutena. The "loyal knight devoted to his king/queen/Godess" is a really common trope, but they got to make you really feel how much Pit loves Palutena and is sincerely commited to her cause without it becoming too cliche or so idealized that it loses its humanity.
I really like that too, the way they interact is really endearing and fun. It’s probably helped by the constant dialogue in this game that doesn’t solely rely on cutscenes so you enjoy the characters more. It reminds me a bit of platinumGames projects with the over the top set pieces. I feel like the guidances toned down the bossy side of Palutena and focused more on a more maternal side in a way. Obviously these are older tropes, nothing new, but it’s done so well that even with them constantly interacting, it never gets boring.
They should get together ❤.
I don’t see it as motherly… more like really good friends or younger brother, older sister.
Whatever they are Palutena doms.
Greek gods don’t play around bro
Is very funny as well knowing Dark Pit reflect all the stuff Pit tend to supress since he is very loyal to his Godess but is obviously there are certain stuff he disagreed or wished to do by his own (such as fly whit no help) all this tiny stuff make him a very complex likeable character and not only a mindless servant that Palutena uses all the time
@@samifranco5541 Aaaaaakshually!!!one!
Okay, jokes aside, he's not "repressed emotions" Pit. He's inverted Pit. Pit's PRIORITIES are switched, but not really his morality. Pit's Priorities make him a perfect soldier, but inverted, they make Pitoo the perfect individualist.
This game has top tier dialogues.
"C'MON BUDDY, WE'RE PALYING A LOT OF NINTENDOGS LATER"
Or how about
"FLOOR ICE CREAM GIVES YOU HEALTH!"
@@agentdon1760 i love how it is aknowledge that it's weird to eat food from the ground and pit is just like "don't care, it tastes good"
"There aren't any hospitals in this game"
"Don't Komatos look like little Metroids?"
Etc.
@@deltaquarayza
I NEVER LEARNED HOW TO REAAAAAAAAAD!
"That's an Orne, if it touches you, you'll be annihilated" "That's sounds painful, not to mention COMPLETELY UNFAIR!"
I would love nothing more than to get a sequel to this game...or at least a switch port
You an me both friend ☺️
Ehh, I was more happy for miitopia
60 dollar port let's go
(For real tho, I want a port because I never got to play the whole game)
I NEED THIS!! 🙏🙏🙏
Let’s hope that happens when smash ultimate is finished
Fourth wall: *exist*
Kid icarus characters: NOT MORE
I especially love the not Metroid joke.
"Shut up! We're not supposed to talk about that."
@@Zander2212 ...Metroid
@@manuelalbertoromero9528 I can't hear you.
"they're to dangerous to be left Alive"
The story in this game is wild. After about 13 chapters you fight Medusa and win the day but then Hades shows up as the main threat and the game just kinda keeps going. You fight aliens, then there’s a story about Palutena screwing over humanity, Pit hecking *dies*, there’s a chapter where you play as Dark Pit essentially diving into hell to save him, and then we cap it all out with an over the top anime battle in a Gundam. Iconic.
At first when I saw the Chaos Kin leaving the moon sanctum, I honestly thought that it was one of the Rozzes from the Aurum Arc, and that's what set it off, but nope. Completely different thing.
I just don't want a Kid Icarus: Uprising 2. I DEMAND one.
trust me when i say we all want a new Kid Icarus game, i’d settle for a Switch port at this point
@@yoisakikiss i mean we got miitopia so anything’s possible
@verified person yep!
Yeah that's cool and all... But we won't get one... Not even a Switch Port for Part 1. Maybe in 10 years who knows.
I don't think it needs a sequel tbh
There's never a bad time to talk about Kid Icarus Uprising.
Yeah, it is so good that even a primarily movie-focused youtuber decided to talk about this game.
Yell in death battle pit did lose to sora sooooo.
There's never a bad time to talk about Hades.
100% Agreed, Kid Icarus time is all the time
There's never a bad time for nintendo to announce Kid Icarus Uprising (HD)
15:38 who would forget the iconic line of "I spend a lot of time on divinipedia" or shazamitylam
Divinipedia? Send me the link.
@@mr.boombox5021 Here it is: kidicarus.fandom.com/wiki/Divinipedia
(I know that that was a Pit line).
I think my favorite line from the Aurum arc has to be from Hades in Chapter 16:
“When freaky aliens give you lemons, make freaky alien lemonade! LIKE THIS!” *crashes Aurum ship into the hive*
WHAT?! I CAN'T HEAR YOU OVER ALL THIS AWESOME!!!
I could never forget that guy. I even remember the lietmotif that played during cutscenes that was specifically his theme. It's a really good theme. Not as good as Hades', but, very good.
"How Nintendo revived a fallen angel."
And we haven't seen him since.
...smash bros ultimate?
@@Kruvi23 which was originally in Brawl sooo
@@Kruvi23 Doesn’t count
Nintendo is run by misogynistic assholes who refuse to respect the wishes of the revival of franchises we want to come back from the dead like Kid Icarus, Ice Climber and F-Zero and make come true!
Yoo... It's not about Nintendo... It's more about Sakurai's wish.
As an F-Zero fan, I wish the best for this series.
You have it worse. No question
Same. As an F-Zero and a new Kid Icarus fan, I hope we both get something new and good soon.
I feel like by this point, every single future entry to the Kid Icarus series could be considered an Uprising considering how dead it is
Your everywhere please explain!!!!
It's not dead, it's just on life support.
AAND THERE IT IS
Cries in F-Zero
This is one of those series that everyone will love and support just cause it never brings a new entry. Not that there's anything wrong with wrist pains
Kid Icarus: Uprising is legitimately one of, if not the best, written game I’ve ever seen. The story constantly goes from one point to another, yet it never feels convoluted, and everything feels like it fits. The humor is legitimately funny, and every major character gets at least a few funny lines. Yet it knows when to tone down the humor in serious moments like Magnus explaining to Pit what happened in the 3 years Pit was gone. Uprising is an absolute masterpiece, and even though a sequel would be nice, it ends in such a great note that I feel like it doesn’t even need a sequel. 10/10, Samurai truly graced us with a Godlike (Pun intended) masterpiece.
I played this on the 3DS and it was great and fun despite the controls being little iffy I would love it if they remaster this on Switch.
Preach
If only he knew what Final Fantasy 1 though 16 were...
@@TommyDeonauthsArchives And a Kid Icarus anime would be great too just like the shorts on the 3DS.
@@matthewbuckley7757 What does that have to do with anything?
This Is such an underrated game. I wish Sakurai worked in other projects apart from Smash Bros from time to time as he's a genious, this is the proof.
Uprising is 100% my favorite game on the 3DS... the story is so rich, the dialogue is so well written, the multiplayer kept me entertained for hours on end, the music is superb. I still remember how shocked I was when Hades (who is one of the most well written villains I've ever seen imo) stopped the credits and burst onto the scene
This is *the* most criminally underrated game in the 3DS library.
Ever play Stella Glow (͠≖ ͜ʖ͠≖) ?
@@Sye909 please stop that guy's creeps me out
I mean, underrated is not the right word, it sold millions of copies and everyone who played it agrees that its a masterpiece... well kinda, there's some really annoying parts in there.
But I think the word you're looking for its underexploited, there's so much potential that hasn't been explored yet, but that potential is not even within the Kid Icarus franchise, no its on the Sora team.
They could literally pick any other franchise and pull an Uprising on it, buuuut... Smash happened.
And considering that the mere concept of Ultimate wouldn't have happened without Sakurai, I can't say I'm too mad he hasn't worked on anything else...
Yeah, that’s unfortunate, it had to go up against several people Pokémon, Mario, mii, and Zelda games. Hope it gets a remaster or sequel. Maybe the next antagonist Is ares
Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon. Although this definitely takes a very close 2nd place.
A game that definitely deserves at least a Switch Port .
You're not wrong
I mean we’re getting Miitopia so it isn’t impossible
And 2 sequels.
@@Mr.Foxhat Yes
If Miitopia is coming, then it’s not impossible for it to not come
Kid Icarus: Uprising is fantastic! I'm lucky enough to never have any problems with the controls. I used both hands to hold the console and just a couple of fingers to hold the stylus and press the buttons. One of the things that really stood out to me was that even though I watched the trailer like 100 times I was completely surprised about the twist half way through the game because it wasn't spoiled in the trailer. The game is a blast to play and the story is a ton of fun. I also think the soundtrack is also fantastic.
It's a shame that we'll likely never get a true port or sequal but at least it was fun on its own
I just use my right thumb directly instead of the stylus.
Works perfectly, and leaves enough fingers free in order to use the right trigger for activating powers.
@@joda7697 haha same, I thought I was the only one who does this. Works perfectly except when I have to cut my nails short then I have to wait a bit haha
@@phuctruong1484 I don't even have long nails, still works for me.
Kid Icarus Uprising literally one of my top five favorite games of all time.
15:30 Imagine forgetting about Pyrrhon.
I remember 'cause I looked him up on the *very real* website Divinipedia!
"Feel the wrath of my Pyroblasters, space weirdos!"
Fear the wrath of my pyroblasters, space weirdos! HAHAHAHAHA! Kablooey! Kablammy!
He was Theseus long before Theseus
@@lordderpingtonII SHAZAMITYLAM
I love Palutena's "Get a load of this nerd" pose in the thumbnail, it's perfect
Long time AntDude viewers will recognize Palutena's pose.
I wouldn't put it past palutena even if she's a huge nerd herself.
She so smug and i love it
Anyone remember that fake out credits scene? I don’t know who idea it was but give that person a freaking raise!
One of, if not one of the coolest game revivals, I NEED this game on the Switch
7:12 Super Smash Brothers for the Nintendo 3DS does this.
in the bottom left of the screen or sometimes the bottom right it will show how much battery is currently on the system.
Your welcome Ant 😎
It's almost the exact same UI from Uprising as well which is cool
I don't get his annoyance with it
@@NeverSaySandwich1 it's interesting because while yes, the 3DS has a pretty neat light thingy that tells you when the battery is running out, the displays that Sakurai's game had were more precise and also hella convenient. You could get the same precise battery display by going out to the HOME menu, but that would involve interrupting your game :^)
Also shoutouts to Smash 3DS also having a permanently visible clock
You also couldn't go to the home menu during wireless play, so the battery is useful there.
17:15 Damn, I can't believe AntDude was able to play with Ninja himself AND beat him, looks like he's really moving up in the world
Wait and see, in a few years AntDude will be competing in the Kid Icarus Uprising championship which is totally a real thing that I didn’t just make up
I recognize some of the other names, too. I wonder if they're who I think they are.
@@PhazonOmega Ninja is definitely a bot name.
yeah, unfortunately, those are uh... all bot names. sorry about your top-scores antdude, but those aren't human players.
I’ve noticed that more and more kid icarus stuff seems to be talked about.
I’ve noticed that too, like the guidances in smash. It’s like people are getting more interested in these characters or at least showing more love for kid Icarus long after the release of Uprising. Hopefully we can get a port or new entry. Out of all 3DS games, this one really deserves an HD overhaul.
I hope the Nintendo devs notice. P l e a s e.
@@uhmuh7484 Damn if a new game came out, I could totally imagine people’s favorite dialogue clips being all over Twitter
This game, above all else, is why I will forever give Sakurai the benefit of the doubt in whatever he does... it's just... HAAAMAZING
Found Thanatos's UA-cam account!
If Sakurai wanted to take a break from the games industry, I could see potential in a Kid Icarus manga written by him.
Also this deserves a remaster on Switch so more people could experience it.
I'd love a manga and/or animé adaptation 👍
There is actually a manga, but only the first chapter of the first comic has been translated by fans.
@@CeHee123 Oh that's cool, now we just needs someone to do the rest!
@@natoriousthehopeful2786 I looked into it but I think the project was ditched unfortunately. What I read was done years ago and I haven't seen any continuation.
A new Kid Icarus is probably what is Sakurai' s next project if he stops working on Super Smash Bros again ...... which does not look like that is happening anytime soon with how many DLC Smash Ultimate gets
“Sorry to keep you waiting!”
Gods and goddesses, I love Kid Icarus: Uprising. The gameplay, the graphics, the story, the characters, the humor, the content - it’s my absolute favorite 3DS game.
A lot of people complain about the controls being painful to use, but I decided to forgo the stylus and use the control pad to aim instead. And believe it or not, I’ve trained myself to perform well at the highest Intensities with that control scheme. I may not be able to adjust my aim during an Air Battle, but I won’t be getting early arthritis.
I should also mention that I have at least half of the game’s script memorized, not just because I’ve logged thousands of hours of playtime, but because the writing and voice acting is simply awesome.
11:54
Pit: The box has really held up well
Palutena: It is less pixelated than I remember.
And the Voice actors are amazing. We got Troy Baker, Hynden Walch, Ali Hillis, and Fred Tatasciore to name a few
Out of any game that could get a Switch port, this one needs it the most
FINALLY HE DID A KID ICARUS UPRISING VIDEO
Schaffrillas made a review of that game before Anthony did.
@@masterseal0418 I just wanted to see Anthony make a video of Kid Icarus: Uprising.
If we did get another Kid Icarus game in the style of Uprising on the Switch, you bet they'll invent new ways to destroy people's wrists, given how the 3DS game made such a good impression on that end.
That’s true, but so worth it
They'll pull an N64 and make you have to use 3 hands or something
@@Joshi_ForReal lmao
not gonna lie, Kid Icarus: Uprising was easily my most played and one of my favorite games for my old 3ds. Was also one of the first times i really did anything with online play. also where is Kid Icarus: Uprising 2? the switch would be perfect for it too!
7:54 To be fair, the game was planned to be a new Star Fox game at one point.
It’s both uplifting and sad seeing the amount of people who love this game but recognize that it’ll never get a sequel (probably)
This game is like the definition of “be glad it happened, not sorry it’s over” considering it probably should never have been this good
Who knows pal, maybe someday someone else picks a 1 up and revives this franchise and improves it way better for the future audiences
It'll get a sequel. We just need to wait another 25 years.
@@Kruvi23 Sakurai even said as much some years ago. Said he wouldn't be involved (although he's gone back on his word before so who knows) but that a sequel could be on the cards at some point if we just. Wait. And boy am I gonna wait.

@@TommyDeonauthsArchives that reply does make any sense in the context of this comment
@@TommyDeonauthsArchives Dude, some respect. Simply because you don't like what he has done means you should insult him.
I freakin' _love_ Kid Icarus! I beat the first game over 30 times over. I used to have a spiral notebook with pages of passwords. When Pit showed up in the Brawl trailer, I lost my mind! So of course, Uprising's reveal had me stoked, and I'm so glad the game managed to kick ass despite not playing like the first two games. The humor could've easily gone wrong, but the script manages to delight throughout. It's just so damn good!
The only character I wish I knew more about was Magnus! He was so cool! I was so curious about his connection with dark lord gaol at the end of chapter 2.
Any video singing the praises of Kid Icarus: Uprising gets a like from me.
Same lol
Let’s all pray we get something about this in the next direct, it’s such a great game that needs to be continued
It does
1:29 the delivery of this line is just the funniest thing to me
Literally just finished my first replay of this game since release today, it has one of the best soundtracks in the system, and the best song in it is called dogs theme, which is just a fantastic name for a song
It's crazy how deep this game is. Rail shooter, TPS, trophies, weapon fusions, different levels according to the difficulty, multiplayer, challenges... It's a shame it doesn't get a proper remake. With motion control or just dual analog on the Switch, this game could be the success it should have been.
This is my game, I got 98% completion on this game, I played hundreds of hours of this game, I know EVERYTHING about this game, and it's a game that I will continue to love for another 25 years
Kid icarus Uprising is one of my favorite games, I got obsessed with it at the time, it was the perfect showcase for the 3DS, the perfect game to justify all of the gimicks included.
I do have a problem with the difficulty system though... in which if you want to beat all the levels in the highest difficulty (required for an achievement) you not only have to beat them but without dying in each level, since dying reduces the difficulty. So you either have to continue in the lower difficulty and waste your time, or get out of the level and try again, but it also costs a lot of hearts to even attempt it, so it is very possible to run out of money just by making attempts. Overall I found it very frustrating and I wish it could be tweaked in a sequel or port
What the hell I'm in this video at 16:51 and he DESTROYED ME!? I KEPT GETTING MATCHED WITH HIM WHEN I WAS TRYING TO TEST OUT A NEW WEAPON AND I GOT DESTROYED. AND NOW I'M IN THIS WHAT THE HELL!? LOL I HAD NO CLUE IT WAS ANTDUDE

As someone who has this game as #1 favorite game of all time, you have my sincere gratitude for giving the game the credits and respect it deserves. Thank you very much, Antdude.
3D Classics Kid Icarus is indeed a remake that does heavily improve the controls
(17:21) Something else to note about the AR Cards is that the long-dormant Twitter account for Kid Icarus released an image of Pit (Victory), one of the few cards that were never released, in celebration for the release of Smash Ultimate.
Plus, the KI:U fandom somehow managed to recreate a card that was never released to the public, being Medusa (Rare), allowing the card collection to be fully completed "legitimately" six years after the game's official release.
8:14 actually, tapping the fire button just fires a charged shot. What you're thinking of is the melee attack which is done by tapping the fire button while the reticle is changed when an enemy is up close.
The amount of love I have for this series can’t be described in this comment. I remember when I first played it and was absolutely addicted.. when it told me to take a break for the first time and I realized how long I’d been playing is when I realized his how much I loved it. For me,. The whole pain complaint people have wasn’t an issue,. I definitely felt it, but was legit so enthralled I hardly noticed, and usually quickly forgot as I began thinking about how cool the game is. What a way to make a world feel real with its endless list of amazing hilarious ever enthralling characters, there’s not one I dislike. I could talk so much about this game and any amount of fans I see talking about it warms my heart. I also don’t think I’ve seen a better community(probably because were few, and we just want to love this dead franchise in peace) but I love interacting with them. One of my favorite games forever.

Sephiroth is the pits -Cloud 2021
Eh... honestly not a fan of sephiroth
You know when I was younger, I actually had an idea for something like that. It was a what-if scenario where Dark Pit fused with Pit, and it created a form that had both their appearances. Like one red eye, one blue eye. One white wing, and one black wing. And their clothes would be grey to show how they've merged and combined.
15:37 Bro what are you talking about, Pyrrhon is one of my favorite characters in this game I love him. I love his personality, and I love the twist of him turning on you at the end of the Aurum arc.
i find it criminal we haven't gotten either a sequel to this game or this game being remastered, this game truly revitalized the Kid Icarus series alongside pit being included in Smash Bros Brawl
Wish they would port this to the Switch
It definitely needs a port to Switch.
This game would THRIVE on the Switch
@@natoriousthehopeful2786 I agree it could sell even more copies on it.
Then I would finally get a chance to play it for real instead of relying on watching gameplays
@@frauleinzuckerguss1906 it's not too hard to get on 3ds. Heck, you can get a 3ds pretty cheap now.
Kid Icarus is a masterpiece. Never a game made me genuinely laugh as much than this game. Every interaction is just too perfect. Viridi is awesome, Pit is a great protagonist, Tip started has a bit of a cliche but finished as a really fun character, Palutena is so much fun here and Hades is just one of the best protagonist ever made
Thank you, someone mentioned SIN AND PUNISHMENT! Both the N64 and Wii versions are dope. Kid Icarus Uprising is amazing. We need a remaster.
Usually Im not one to push a game, but this is probably one of my favorite games ever and if it ever got a switch port I would be recommending it to everyone I know. I still think back to it fondly and seeing little bits of cinematics and gameplay in this video reminded me how stellar it was!

FEAR HIS PYRO-BLASTER, SPACE WEIRDOS
Big props for shedding light on this legendary forgotten gem. EASILY is the best 3D 3DS game. I’d love it ported on the Switch if they don’t feel like making a new one!
This is one of my favorite games and I’m very happy to see videos of it in 2021
Before I watch this video. I am so glad to see another Antdude episode especially this one to be exact I felt like he would review this one. Also could you do an episode on the 3DS Minnie games that come with the system like AR games, face raiders, and the free to play mii games?
Me: "Man, this game has so many waifus, good thing the only female character in this game that isn't a waifu is a ball of flame"
Sakurai: "Yeah, about that..."
Me: *O h .*
ughh i love uprising so much, was like my second 3ds game as a kid, and i think i only got it cuz the box art looked cool in the store, such a great decision, loved it so much, and i was genuinely so caught off guard at the hades reveal, i was completely satisfied when the game ended in 9 chapters with medusa, but i was so excited to find out it was a whole 25 chapters.
Still one of my favorite games ever. I’ve gone back to it multiple times and it never gets old
15:37 how do you think that i could ever forget about my boy pyron, sacrilege
“Did you play it?”
“Yes.”
“What did it cost?”
“My left wrist.”
I know the controls weren’t for everybody, but I personally feel like it worked wonders on the 3DS. The unusual control scheme made me feel really, well, on control of the action. Way more than the circle pad pro could‘ve. I also feel like, similar to gyro aiming, it allows for more accuracy with lower dependence on muscle memory, like it’s the case with using a mouse
I rlly liked the aurum arc, it was the first time viridi was on our side which is good setup for later, even hades was on our side, it was rlly fun imo!
Honestly I really like the Aurum. They are such a strong contrast to this mythical, magical world with their computery aesthetic. Also how could ANYONE forget about Pyrrhon? The sungod. The master of the pyroblaster. And when he fused with the aurum brain. That really gave me the spooks as a child.
Man this brings back memories. I 101% completed this game, beat all levels on intensity 9.0, and was hooked on the multiplayer.
You know a game is so enjoyable when you can still play it even now. Especially the multiplayer
Son, the competitive scene online was godly. Libra sponge/ ares armor combo...enough said. Bring this chaos back
Light vs Dark Forever son.
Omg i was NOT EXPECTING THIS VIDEO
THX
It's pretty sad all we can do is hope for more kid icarus content 😭
This is one of my favourite games, I remember playing it a lot in high school (I'm 21, graduated when I was 18)
My only problem, is that it was hard to play as a lefty
You can't fool me with the result screen on the multiplayer games Ant. I've played against the bots so often I recognize those names. I can't get enough of this game either
Man now I want to watch another playthrough of this game.
Antdude!
what are you doing to me?
I remember enjoying watching it played.
Never played it myself but I enjoyed the story so much I kinda want to watch it again.
