We are only an hour away from the Nintendo E3 press conference, and speculation has reached maximum overdrive.

After divulging information to the contrary for weeks, IGN’s Matt Casamassina has slipped that the hotly anticipated Kid Icarus revival on Wii may not be coming at E3.

GoNintendo has his quote:

“Uh-oh. Looks like we’re going to have to wait a little longer than E3 to see the kid fly again. Not too long, though, hopefully.”

We’ll know in a few hours for sure. Stay tuned to Infendo for up-to-the-minute updates direct from Nintendo’s press conference.

Casamassina and Kombo are at it again, further suggesting the game is being developed by Factor 5, likely to be announced at E3 this July. Anyone excited? I’m cool, but I’d be happier with a confirmation of Disaster: Day of Crisis and/or another darker game.
