Kid Icarus isn’t exactly one of Nintendo’s most recognizable franchises. With Pit’s return in brawl interest seemed to peak a little back in 2007. After a handful of rumors and some rumored leaked art, we are still here without a new Kid Icarus.

Yoshio Sakamoto, who worked on the original Kid Icarus, recently spoke at GDC and to his knowledge, at least to the public, there is currently no Kid Icarus title in the works.

“I don’t know personally about any project underway regarding Kid Icarus,” Sakamoto said. But if there is enough demand for it Sakamoto thinks it will happen.  “If so many of those people are interested in it and really want to see it on the Wii they should really speak up. If we can find some sort of way to bring it to the Wii, a way to make the game for the Wii that makes sense, we would happily do so, but just keep in mind it may not be me making the game.”

Rumor had it that Factor 5 was working on a new Kid Icarus title before their doors were closed, but that was never confirmed.

But if it is true that there is no Kid Icarus title in development then it will be a good while before we see one.

The 2003 arcade shooter Ketsui will be landing on 360’s in Japan this April.

Cave is the developer of Ketsui and they have recently been looking to expand to western markets. As of right now the only title we know that is coming from them to the west is Deathsmiles. If that performs well, there is a chance we will see Ketsui in the future.

Unfortunately because of the localization plans, the title will be region locked if Cave continues their plans. Importing the title without a Japanese Xbox 360 may not be an option if Cave never decides to bring it over.

Nintendo and Mistwalker haven’t opened the flood gates yet for The Last Story information, but the official website updated with some new information on the setting of the game along with some new art and music.

The game takes place on Luli Island. The contient is surronded by mountain ranges and the only way to access it is via the heavily fortified island port. The ruler of the island is looking for a way to rise in power and he plans on doing that with magic.

All of the towns are suffering and in poverty, but the town of Luli has remained prosperous. The towns prosperity seems to be related to magic, but the magic is starts attracting monsters.

Metal resources are scarce in The Last Story’s world. Sakaguchi said he is trying to limit the amount of Sci-Fi influences in the title.

You can check out some art for The Last Story after the jump. You can also listen to some of the new music from the website here.

Don’t have a DSi but want to play some Dark Void Zero? Your chance to get in on the action elsewhere might come according to Capcom’s Seth Killian.

When asked about the possibility of Dark Void Zero coming to WiiWare, PSN, or XBLA Seth replied “You have not yet heard the last of Dark Void Zero, but I dunno what the plans might be for Wii/X360/PS3. None as yet, but it does seem like a natural fit.”

I wouldn’t be surprised if we see the title head to iPhone/iPod Touch at some point as well.
