Oh right, so suddenly review copies don't exist. Anyway, buy the game, get butthurt. I tried to warn you guys. And it's funny, you guys are viciously defending a game that you yourself haven't played yet, and are judging based on hype.

It's not so much that people are defending the game as it is people are irritated at how hard your trying to stop people from trying it themselves. You're allowed to have an opinion, and I disagree with the sentiment of "keep it to yourself", but I think it maybe would have went over better had you shared what you thought WITHOUT expressly telling people not to play it themselves, or judging people that want to play it despite your opinion.

One thing I've learned in life is it's next to impossible to be honest & realistic about most things without offeneding certain people.

That said the controls truly are god awful. I shouldn't have to sruggle with controls this bad in the year 2012. It's like the game was designed as a dual analouge shooter - only one problem.

Speaking of which anyone tried the circle pad pro? Does it make the game playable? Actually considering getting one if that's the case.

This game is not compatible with the circle pad.

You should probably clarify. There is no dual analog support, but the Circle Pad Pro does in fact work, and is probably a must have for lefties to use the right slide pad with their right hand and touch screen with their left hand.

Says so on the back of the box......can't find anything useful on google with details of how the circle pad pro works with Kid Icarus Uprising.

If it makes it dual analogue that's cool, but I think it may just be for left handed folks ( which would be useless for me).

I know Nintendo has a long history of releasing add ons and not supporting them....but I think the circle pad pro may be the least supported to date ( which is quite the accomplishment ).

Thanks thats what I wanted to know.

So we gotta learn these crappy controls....not a huge deal, I'm pretty good at gaming, but still...this is 2012.

Oh yeah? What about:
















(The sad thing is how many of these I had...)

I love me them bongo's, 4 player donkey konga? HECK YEAH!

And people did use the broadband adapter..........................for pirating GCN games.

Back on topic: First day pickup for me, though I need to get around to picking up a 3DS so I can play all these games sitting around.

What's odd is that Nintendo has been successful with their peripherals, yet they don't follow through. The balance board with Wii Fit is actually pretty neat and sold over 20 million. Sure, they have Wii Fit+, but that was more of an add-on. There have been like maybe a handful of other games that had some balance board support, but I'm surprised that Nintendo didn't capitalize on this thing. Motion+ had all that hype, yet only a few games requires it.

My main problem wasn't the atrocious controls, but the fact that nintendo hyped up the flight parts which make up only 10% of the actual game. The rest is the combat with the horrible controls.

I thought everyone was aware that the flight was only for 5 minutes?

What? I thought it was flying for half the game and then ground for the other half.

Seems to me like the on foot sections are longer than the air sections. Plus the multiplayer is on foot only.

I don't know... only played the first few stages and the game seems good enough to learn the awkward controls. Seems a lot the time Japanese developers make weird control schemes or dumb choices just for the hell of it.

Its flying section, ground section then boss.

But the flight path only lasts for 5 minutes (at least according to the video), whether that is real time or not I have no idea.
