Official Nintendo Magazine Awards Kid Icarus: Uprising 91%

Kid Icarus: Uprising is due out in stores this month, which makes things all the more exciting considering the game has already garnered a stellar review from Official Nintendo Magazine, awarding the game with 91%. Not too shabby at all! We’re expecting that the game is going to be one of the top hits on the 3DS this year, so you best pick it up to see what all the fuss is about, and to celebrate Pit’s return to gaming!

The game is set for release on March 23rd in Europe and the US. Check out some quotes from the ONM review:

“It’s stunning to behold, in fact, a visual masterpiece on 3DS that routinely surprises with impressive, expansive and detailed sprawling landscapes … Rich fantasy world [which has been] teased from the abstract visuals of an 8-bit NES game … The single player campaign is huge, for a start, and it sits alongside two full-featured local and online multiplayer modes [offering] countless equippable weapons and powers that work across both … It takes perseverance to comfortably wrap your paws around the game’s on-foot sections, [but] it’s intuitive enough once mastered … It feels far bigger than the console upon which it appears, it’s deeper than most home console titles and more content-packed than any other 3DS game yet released. Pit might’ve been sorry to keep us waiting, but this was a wait worth every second.”
