Kid Icarus is making his comeback, and I can’t think of a better place for his debut than E3. Apparently, Nintendo feels the same way, as the E3 2008 game listings shows that Kid Icarus Wii will be in attendance in some way, shape or form.

Of course it doesn’t provide much information on the game itself. The release date and publisher are both listed as TBA. It does explicitly state that it will be a Wii action/adventure game though. The listing also mentioned the original Kid Icarus for the NES as challenging, and the Gameboy Kid Icarus: Of Myths and Monsters as being a bit anti-climactic.

When Lair was originally released on the Playstation 3 last August 2007, hopes were high that it would be the first major hit to be released on the then struggling system. There were good reasons for expectations to be set so high as Factor 5, the same company that worked on the highly acclaimed Star Wars: Rogue Squadron series, seemed to be the perfect candidates for the medieval dragon soaring shooter for the PS3. However, with some of the worst controls seen in the past five years, Lair failed to take flight in the eyes of most gamers.

Six months after Lair’s North American release, a newer version of the game might be on the horizon as a re-release on the PS3…

SCEA associate producer Ryan Hamlyn announced on the on Playstation.blog that PS3 action/flight title Lair will be delayed until September 4, 2007. The original release date was set for August 14, 2007, but has been pushed back due to “an extra step in QA testing to enhance community features in the game”.

Apparently, some issues that arose around the online game also factored into the decision, as the blog states…
