Kid Icarus Joins Paper Mario, Animal Crossing, Mario Tennis in 2012

September 13, 2011

With Super Mario – 3D Land and Mario Kart 7 loaded up for the holiday season in the states, Kid Icarus just couldn't roll with such a big crowd. Nintendo's moved Pit and his brand of third-person action out of 2011 and into next year… to roll with a pretty big crowd.

Nintendo announced last night in their Circle-Pad press conference that gamers could expect to see big Nintendo franchises like Paper Mario 3DS, Animal Crossing 3DS, Mario Tennis, and now Kid Icarus: Uprising, in 2012.

Don't forget that Luigi's Mansion 2 is also penciled in for 2012, along with some other new Nintendo games announced last night.

One question about Mario Tennis, though: Will Luigi still be a cheating bitch?
