Icarus? (56k beware, huge pics inside)

SPOnG is saying that Icarus is coming out for Revolution. Who knows if it's true or not, but it would be nice to see it if it's real.

These two pics are older, they were floating around sometime last year...

These pics are newer and supposedly concept art...

Nintendo seems to be picking up a lot more third party support for the Rev than they did for the GC.

that second pic looks like the new Silver Surfer.

Yeah, I know what you're talking about. The Silve Surfer in Ultimate Extinction.

Well, it's comfirmed that the "concept art" is fake. The art came from an artist on deviantART and someone just added Capcom and Nintendo logos. Here's the artist's page...

Well, I hear a different rumor about Icarus. I've heard that Retro Studios (Metroid Prime I & II) are working on it.

Is this rumored game supposed to be a sequel to Kid Icarus? Pit, all growed up?

The first Kid Icarus was made by Gunpei Yokoi, creator of the Game Boy and the first Metroid game. Interesting coincidence.

I'd heard Miyamoto was working with Yokoi on something...

Shame though, that art is pimp and I'd've loved to see a game come of it. Especially with the angel chick and her impossible (lack of) clothing.

Uh... Yokoi is dead.

I'd love to see them work together, but Yokoi died in 1997. Besides that he left Nintendo before that. There are numerous rumors that Nintendo's Yakuza ties had something to do with his mysterious hit and run. At least MS and Sony don't KILL people.

Anyway, I'm really excited for Icarus.

MS kills hope.

Yakuza's the shit, I would so work for those guys.

Wait, he meant Nintendo right?

Nope.
