Oops, sorry, this came out like 24 hours later than expected. It's up now, after months of research and searching, I think I have found out why Pit cannot fly with his wings. This is just a theory, that is of video games, which may or may not be inspired by binging MatPat's Game Theory and Film Theory show. Although, truth be told, this idea originally came from my ex, who was convinced that Palutena was a totally controlling bitch, so it started off with seeing if the relationship between Pit and Palutena was abusive, and although some parts did fit, it wasn't concrete enough to definitively say so.
Altering the theory a little, I then though that Pit had Dependant Personality Disorder and Palutena had Munchausen By Proxy Syndrome, which fit better than the last theory, and was almost the focus. Then I saw something in the Japanese version o the game and that alone turned me to something to what I find a more sound theory, which I hope you watch the video for.
Oh! You're reading the description! Yay :D I like you. If you had a like button, I would push it. Wait no that sounds wrong. I'm sorry for the poor quality of the game and changing camera angels, recording a 3DS and then playing it it really awkward, and a capture card for the console is like £300, so I did the best I could.
Special thanks to MrMalicar for letting me use his translated video for this. The specific episode can be found here:

at the time 8;12 if you're interested. If you like translations of Japanese games to see the dialogue differences then I really recommend seeing a few. He even has editors notes in the descriptions for specific things and is really informative.
Another thanks was to Gesh86 for his very informative play though of Myths and Monsters for the Game Boy. I had to use his footage because recording with emulators wasn't working and the controller kept bugging out and sometimes it lagged for no reason even though this is a pretty powerful computer and everything was going wrong and I hope he doesn't mind xP

But it actually is pretty interesting if you just want to know what this unappreciated gem is like, even if it's way too similar - and easier - than the original.
Um...copyright and all that. Intro graphics and music made by me, so it's probably why they suck, but I like what I did :3
Kid Icarus and all relating characters/graphics/music in the series are owned by Nintendo, and it's a game I recommend you play if you're a huge Nintendo fan. Kid Icarus was always my favourite - if malnourished - Nintendo franchise, and I was really excited to see a shiny new game come out. Okay I'm going to stop rambling now, you earn a cookie :D
