Kid Icarus: Uprising is one of the biggest upcoming Nintendo 3DS titles, delivering new and impressive adventures for the franchise’s protagonist, Pip. In order to really get people interested in it, an impressive gameplay video has just appeared.

Nintendo’s 3DS became a sales success after its price cut last year and the array of impressive games that appeared for the platform firmly established it as a great portable console.

After deploying a couple of new Mario titles, Nintendo is getting ready to release a new installment of its older Kid Icarus franchise, in the form of Kid Icarus: Uprising.

We’ve already seen the game in action before and Nintendo has now posted a fresh video, showing off a sort of boss battle with Pip going up against Medusa, as well as other gameplay footage.

After hearing plenty of details about the title’s multiplayer modes, it’s certainly nice to see that the story is still top notch.

Check out the video above and get ready for the launch of Kid Icarus: Uprising on March 23.
