It's not difficult to grasp, they're just fucking uncomfortable. The 3DS only has one stick. Don't put games that need two sticks on it.

S&P2 is the best shooter this generation.

Uprising would be unplayable with two sticks.

I disagree. The controls in Kid Icarus are cumbersome and involve holding the 3DS in a way that necessitated bundling the game with a stand.
I find your comment a little too dismissive. I played KI right through, enjoyed the multiplayer for a few days afterwards, but nothing about that control scheme has me rushing back...
I got the controls, but having, for instance, a powerup enable jumping in the most cumbersome fashion imaginable is a joke.

No it wouldn't. Unless you mistyped "playable".
I would totally be okay with a sequel to
one of my favorite treasure games.
Yeah, that´s the first title I wished for upon reading the news.

I'll buy whatever they make. Glad they're finally doing something other than HD ports.

It'd play fine and it would open up the available buttons one could access on the fly.
One thing that I would miss that I actually quite enjoys about KI was the "flick to spin" the camera functionality from the touch controls. I really thought that was ace. I don't imagine losing that would break the game but it does give one a competitive advantage in MP.
Please!!!

HCU was only fun until the stealth bits imo

It would be like playing Sin and Punishment 2 with the classic controller and not the remote. Why would anyone want to go back to that?
I tried to do those bits stealthy but never really figured it out. You can play the stealth stage as an action stage through and through, though, as far as I can tell.

It's not hard. I've even done it co-op with a friend.

This guy even does it without destroying cameras, making it harder on himself than necessary.
Now this is pretty hard
You can. Just plays out like a regular stage when you do. No idea why that part ruined the game for him
I forget if there's a score bonus for not triggering the alarm though. Been a year since I played

When can we expect the announcement?
I thought they designed the game in such a way that some segments were easier with the other control scheme.
I would be so down for a Stretch Panic 3D.
Just do something to improve the non-boss stages and you have the perfect formula for a boss-focused game imo

Hopefully it's something original not a sequel.

"I was also struggling with the dilemma of 'I know that we cant do better than Ikaruga, so why are we making a game for the same platform, and of the same genre?' I really worried about this. But finally, I resolved it by rephrasing the problem: 'the hardwares graphical power is not going to improve no matter how much I struggle with it, and Im never going to be a genius that can make a game like Ikaruga, so worrying about it is just a waste '"

i think i would like another game like alien solder.
but really i'd be interested in whatever they do as long as it's not just a sequel.

ikaruga is a b-tier shooter, but at least it has a sane chaining system that doesn't encourage the player to ignore 2/3rds of the enemies in the entire game like RS

S&P2 is the best game ever in the best series ever so I'm definitely looking forward to this. Probably the game that'll make me buy a 3DS.

Swap Mischief Makers for Alien Soldier and that's pretty much my list.
Maybe drop Guardian from top
Oh and original Sin and Punishment needs to be up there too.

I hope it's S&P or Star Fox. Some other on-rails shooter would be cool too.

Why isn't Mischief Makers in your top tier?!
Honestly
never played it. :x
Been waiting for virtual console port forever
and now that I think about it keep Guardian in top. I really liked the rebalance in the re-release
This has potential.

I know right
Alien Soldier is genesis gaming at its finest.
It's on steam right now if you haven't played it get on it

Alien Soldier is good, but I'm not a huge fan of the Boss Marathon side-scrollers compared to the more traditional kind. I think that's a pretty unfortunate trap that Contra: Hard Corps and Shattered Soldier fell into, that I'm glad Uprising changed. Same thing for shmups with really short levels, song-long boss fights.

Fair enough.
You just listed my favorite contra games so I guess that's just where our tastes differ.
