Review - Kid Icarus: Uprising

I recently finished the Solo campaign for Kid Icarus: Uprising, and have been playing around with Together Mode as well. Does Pit's return from the NES classic Kid Icarus fly fair on the 3DS, or will he finished after this review?

Mysteriously Present

I'm sorry I haven't posted anything in over a week, been having a busy week at my job. I've been working on the Kid Icarus: Uprising review, but it feels like there's so much to cover in it that I feel both overwhelmed at where to start, as well as not having enough time to finish the review within what time I have available this week. I probably won't get enough free time to finish it until Sunday, and the mysterious absence from the blog just seemed a bit questionable.

In the meantime, I'm going to go ahead and talk about my experience on the game, mainly discussing the weapons I have.

First Impressions - Wii U + Nintendo Land

So it certainly took me a while to get around to setting up the Wii U. After all, it would have to be set up in the living room, and that place hasn't been cleaned in seemingly forever. Unfortunately, it came upon me to do all the cleaning, which I was fairly against doing since most of the dust that I found behind the TV and in the TV stand consisted of huge clumps of cat hairs and other thick layers of dust. Also considering it's spring pollen allergy season as well, stirring up these dust clumps is one of the last thing I'd like to do. Regardless, I had no help in vacuuming, wiping, and cleaning up the TV stand what-so-ever. My hesitation for cleaning up after the cats can be best understood if you've read my rant about them here, and my gripe against them for completely ruining Firion's life. I haven't exactly expressed my full feelings about Firion's life VS undeserving cats, but that's an ugly rant that I've omitted writing about in full detail, and neither is it the point of this post. The point HERE is my reason for why it took so long to set up the Wii U that we had since launch day.

Need for Action and Babes

Lately, I've been finding myself playing a lot more action games than... well, most of my life. It's funny how much my interests have shifted in gaming since my childhood, where I was really into RPG games. Sure, I still like them now too, but back then, I had very little interest in FPS (not that there were many good ones when I was a kid except Doom, Wolfenstein, etc. until Goldeneye 64 made FPS big), fighting games (like Street Fighter 2, which I certainly liked but sucked terribly since I didn't understand the concept of cancelling moves into specials for combos, the difference between blocking high and low, taking advantage of recovery time, hit stuns, invincibility frames, etc.), and action games. For those of you that keep up with my gaming activities, you already know that I've been playing Devil May Cry 3 and Kid Icarus: Uprising right now, both of which I am enjoying greatly. But there was a game that I had nearly forgotten about that plays fairly similarly to Devil May Cry 3 that I had already been playing, with elements of RPG, and is more of a beat'em up game in concept; Rusty Hearts.
