Kid Icarus and Pikmin Revolution Rumblings
Cubed3 posted that Spong is reporting that their sources have disclosed Pikmin as a “dead cert” for the Revolution. The original 2 games were a fresh experience and extremely fun. The title has not been confirmed for E3.
However, Kid Icarus and a new Miyamoto IP will be shown for the next gen system in May. Pikmin is an obvious contender and the other two have been all but confirmed previously, so we will have to wait and see if these rumors pan out. I would absolutely love to see a more mature Kid Icarus title in the vein of Zelda Twilight Princess and a new Pikmin would also be welcomed with open arms. I am very intrigued as to what Mr. Miyamoto has been cooking up. We’ll keep you posted.
