Kid Icarus

The Angry Video Game Nerd: Just think, after we first popped in Legend of Zelda and first took control of the elf-like hero Zelda... Oh wait, that's Link. And then we fired up Metroid, playing as the armored suit space warrior, Metroid. Oh wait, that's Samus. Don't kid yourself. If you're as old as me, be honest. Did you know right away? Didn't you skip those opening prologues and ignore the manuals, before you eventually found out the real names? So with Kid Icarus, the character's name must be Icarus. It's the title of the fucking game. Well, guess what? It's Pit. Yeah. Well, why wasn't the game called Kid Pit? I guess it has sort of a shitty ring to it. Would make a great movie. Kid Pit, starring Brad Pitt. Well, the original Japanese title translates to Light Myth: Palotena's Mirror, but for whatever reason, they changed it to Kid Icarus. What's the big idea confusing us like that? Those motherfuckers. But not like Oedipus. That guy was the original motherfucker.
