Let them just damn localize Fire Emblem. If they do so I woould not care to much about other games anymore(Most)
It doesn't make sense, and yes they should be promoting it at least alongside Mario Kart 7, but the video not appearing along with the others is very suspicious at best. I consider these videos as "official promotion", but with Kid Icarus missing from the line-up, does it mean NoA is not promoting it officially anymore?awssk8er said:There is no way the US could not get Kid Icarus...chris888222 said:Despite that, the videos in YouTube largely DID show that Kid Icarus will be coming to USA.ferofax said:Kid Icarus not having a US trailer is bad, bad news... that's like Nintendo of America shrugging it off. I mean, sure we had that E3 downloadable vid, but now that the other titles have updated vids, what could be the reason why NoA decided not to update this one video as well? I mean, Animal Crossing had japanese text, but it being available on US eShop pretty much confirms that Nintendo will release it to the US. So why is there no Kid Icarus video?
Only games like Friend Collection won't get localized (but no confirmation though. I'm just guessing as the DS version did not make its way out of Japan.)
On topic: I really liked the Mario Kart 7 video. It really feels as though I'm playing the game. I even titled my 3DS while at it. Day one purchase for me.
At E3 when the 3DS was announced, they opened it up with a Kid Icarus trailer. They did say a while back that it would be released in the US by the end of 2011, and everywhere else 2012, but they ended up extending it to Q1 2012 for all regions. The US is getting Kid Icarus, but I don't understand why we didn't get the trailer. I don't see how it makes any sense.
Also, they should be promoting Kid Icarus the most. To most people it's a new franchise, so not everyone sees the game and realizes it's first party, or even what it's about.

then i suppose it looks great for a really early build. ahaha, i really wasn't this anal on framerates (spent a good half of the last decade playing DS games), but 15fps for the 3DS just won't cut it if the handheld is capable of so much more.Ergo said:ferofax said:EDIT: Luigi's Mansion 2 looks awesome, but the vid had choppy framerate.

It doesn't even have a release date outside of "2012", so it's likely a symptom of a build of a game that isn't going to be out until the end of the first quarter, best-case.
