Midnight Palm
Tortolunk
Shock Orbitars
Underworld Gatekeepr
Suit of Skuttler

Apparently, Pit w/ Midnight Palms vs Palutena in an AR battle will both kill each other. Lovely.

Awesome. I still have to wait a week on account of my Canadian-ness
But don't retire yet, my brother, for you may see more action on the horizon...

The wait is worth it, it's good stuff bro. Tho, I guess i'm kinda making it harder to wait heh.
No doubt. I may have retired from KI multiplayer but it'll always be in my 3DS.
Going on vacation with friends and family since i'm back at home for the summer. Wouldn't be able to get any multiplayer action even if wanted too.

Must have! D:
I wish I could play it, getting 3ds money around here is a pain in the ass since the time nintendo closed the posibility for non US credit cards to add funds to the 3ds.
Well thats weird.
But if anyone else is playing this and having a difficult time, just check out this guide
http://strategywiki.org/wiki/Kid_Icarus
Edit: I beat it in 3:45. I used that guide that I posted once to help me through Pandoras castle on stage 3-4. Such an awesome game. Gonna play through it again and see if I can improve my time.
Holy Shit! Playing in 8.1, I just defeated the boss at chapter 8 in critical state, with pit about to get exausted and the boss about to shoot a charged laser. I didn't had any way to scape at that point, no Powers, no health. I can't belive he died before shooting his thing. I thought I was finished!
Calamari!
Calamari!
What a sucker
awesome...now do it on 9.0
Next is 8.2!!!
I'm replayin at 8.X to get better weapons. Then I'll try 9.0 =/

Pandora's Fortress was the only part that I needed to look up a map, because it has so many one-way routes and a large nonsense loop.
Anyway, 8.0 is significantly easier than 9.0. I've gotta stop making careless mistakes on 9.0 though, as many of these levels are definitely beatable.

Exactly. And i didnt want to spend an hour running around, looking for routes, dying, etc.
I.. I really don't remember any One way route. And what looping part btw?
Im talking about kid icarus nes. Pandora has a fortress with an original zelda layout.

Oh that's why the name was different. Ok! I won't see that image yet, until I'm screaming for help in that stage.
figured i'd share this weapon calculator from gfaqs. Its very accurate and is sometimes off by 1-3 numbers. http://ihome.ust.hk/~cs_lcxae/kiu_weapon_calculator.html
Just back home and got to open up my prize pack.
It was the Kid Icarus t-shirt (the same one that someone posted pics of last page), Pit perler beads, a pax east 2012 kid icarus lanyard, and the 10 ar card pack
The cards that I got were:
Komayto
Volcano Arm
Bluster
Divine Bow
Igniot
Angel Bow
Bear Claws
Trailtail
Handora
Nettler

Nub, ya need to add me. Of course you can't do that right now though but I'd like it a lot.
And I was already on your list. Fancy that. Well, excuuuuuuuuuse me.
Whats your 3ds name?
Ill be back on soon. Just taking a break watching the heat/pacers game.
EDIT: I'm playing far away mode, and there is this guy on the other team........ hands down best player i've played in this game. Both of his teammates weren't even playing, he goes 7-1, and wins the game. He's beaten me 4 times in a row.
I just went 6-2, had full health as an angel, he was an angel with about 10% health, and he still wins. This guy is amazing.

Seems this guy will have an interview with Anthony Del Rio about his role as pit.

From the looks of things Nintendo of Europe's stars catalogue

And here I am looking at my stars wondering what to do with them, the cards don't really appeal to me, i'd rather get the download games you guys get.
If only both NoE and NoA could just get it together and give both trinkets and games.

At last.
I got my 25 sets of kid icarus ar cards from Club Nintendo Europe to
Damn both of you straight to hell!
NOA, get off your lazy asses and distribute more cards!
Seriously, it's getting pretty frustrating. Even Japan's club nintendo has the option to use their coins for the kid icarus soundtrack.

Exactly.
and I found a rare Gaoul which is really beautiful.

If the cards are placed as rewards in NA, hopefully they can purchased for only 200-300 coins
Everytime they have a gamestop event or something, i'm either out of town or too lazy to go.
So please NOA.............. put these things on club nintendo. They would sell like hotcakes.

That's pretty heavily location based. I was just giving out NA 10 card boosters to people I knew for the past two weeks. (I've had a complete collection of all the available cards for a while now, and I went to several events and got a bunch of them. I think about 20? over the course of several. I gave them all to friends/acquaintances who were still collecting. I'm out now, but we'll see if any other events pop up.)
That and I'll see if I can get another NA Three Sacred Treasures. Probably'll try to sell it. Here's hoping.

I just beat this game today...oh my gosh, this game has so much incredible replay value...and the multiplayer is phenomenal! Sakurai, you outdid yourself, once again. Pit is now, most definitely one of my favorite Nintendo characters! : )

I just found the worst review for this game:
Who could really say that and mean it?!

I still don't think it's as bad as Jim Sterling's 5.0 trolly review in which his only complaint was "I didn't like the controls." The review scores this game is given usually correspond to the reviewer's willingness to adapt to the unique control scheme. In this case, he didn't.
