Flying at your face in January 2012
Kid Icarus is set to swoop onto the Nintendo 3DS early next year with a shiny new set of stereoscopic wings.
This iconic NES platformer will be the first of Nintendo’s 3D Classics to receive a full graphical overhaul, boasting all-new sprites and levels.
While NES favourites like Twinbee and Xevious have already been given a three-dimensional makeover for Ninty's newest handheld, their original 8-bit graphics have been left untouched.
3D Classics: Kid Icarus will land in Nintendo's eShop on January 5th, 2012. To get a sneak peek at the upgraded visuals, check out the video below.
