Reggie Fils Aime, while talking to G4 recently, hinted at Kid Icarus 'being something they do', which one could very easily take to mean a Kid Icarus game on the Wii. Asked about the lack of first party 'M' games, Reggie responded: “We do Mario, we do Donkey Kong, Zelda, and Kid Icarus. That’s what we do. That’s the type of products we bring to life. It’s always been the third party licensees that push the edge, ...not necessarily by Nintendo.” While it seems like a very small hint, to many core gamers out there it is the small hope they needed of there being a Kid Icarus game on Wii. All other franchises mentioned have seen some sort of retail release, but Kid Icarus has not. Could this mean a Kid Icarus title is in the works?
