May 13th, 2008Nintendo is the greatest troll ever
For those of you who have yet to hear, kombo.com has leaked a pitch document from Factor 5 to Nintendo describing their vision for a new Kid Icarus game for the Nintendo Wii. The pitch document and art assests suggest an older, darker Pit cursed for millenia due to some henious crime.
Naturally, the blogosphere is all up in arms about this dramatic shift despite not even knowing if the pitch was successful or not. But really, should anyone even be surprised?

This isn't be the first time that Nintendo has pooped all over the faces of its biggest and most devoted fans. In fact, they've been doing this for a while. Some of their most recent escapades include:
- Announcing that the Metroid series would be returning, only to turn it into an FPS (although that one did work out pretty well)
- Returning to the mature Link in Twilight Princess, only to release a game that fell flat in certain critical ways (ironically, some Zelda fans also threw down their controllers in disgust when they learned that Link grew up in Ocarina of Time)
- Mother 3
- Refusing to give Wii owners an option for extra storage for all those VC and WiiWare games they've been paying for
- Wii Sports, Wii Fit, and Brain Age
- Giving the community Super Smash Bros. Brawl, arguably the greatest fan service in videogame history, only to implement a roster with characters from nobody's dream list
