Nintendo has published the second (and possibly final) edition of the Iwata Asks: Kid Icarus: Uprising interview. Although it’s a bit shorter than most Iwata Asks, it does contain a few interesting tidbits.

For instance, did you know that Kid Icarus: Uprising was being developed on the PC and Wii? This was because Project Sora didn’t have access to 3DS development kits initially.

You can read about that – and more – in the detailed summary below. Before proceeding, be aware that there are a few small, nonspecific spoilers in the “After the Medusa Battle” section!


Street Fighter producer Yoshinori Ono landed in the hospital not too long ago. Ono felt ill and fainted at the Asian launch event for Street Fighter X Tekken.

Ono is out of the hospital, but he says that he’ll be taking a break from his responsibilities.

Ono told fans on Twitter,

“I caused you so much worry for a while. I went back to work. [The Street Fighter] team are working wholeheartedly on patches for SF X TK. Please wait just a little longer.

“I apologise for that. And thanks for a lot of get-well messages! I’ll refrain from work [on my] current job for a while. Another person [is] in charge of the SF series for a while. Of course I’ll [give] constant support to it.

“I’ll be out of the limelight [of] fighting game series for a while. I’ll think about the new future of fighting games after this.”

The patch Ono is referring to will address a bug with online battles. While fighting others, some of the game’s sound effects simply do not play.
