The most epic song to accompany a battle against a two-headed dog, a hydra whose heads constantly bicker, Satan’s heart, and I CAN’T HEAR YOU OVER ALL THIS AWESOME incarnate!
To anyone who thinks that Kid Icarus Uprising is impossible to play as a lefty, I got the footage just fine as a lefty. Just set movement to ABXY and fire to R and use the stylus with your left hand. Worked quite well.
Personally as another lefty, I didn't rlly like using ABXY for moving. Just felt less fluid than using the circle pad, so I just deal with right-handed controls. I joke to others that I'm right-handed only for Uprising lol Glad it works for you tho!
I’m left handed but I had no problem with having the stylus in my right hand and using the circle pad and L buttton. Dunno if using computer mouses with my right hand made it stable enough or what not
This soundtrack feels so criminally underrated sometimes. It's been so long since a new remix of any bit of music of Kid Icarus: Uprising was brought to my attention, that when the algorithm alerted me to this one in particular, you best believe I dropped whatever it was I was doing to listen in its entirety. And yet it still surpassed my high expectations. Now here's hoping our collective praying and hoping can finally will an Uprising port to the Switch 2 into existence. I've been dying of anticipation, bro.
I've admittedly not watched a GaMetal video in a long while. At least a year and a half, probably. But when I tell you that the notification for this summoned me IMMEDIATELY... I missed you, Jonny. Also, please... any Kid Icarus would be appreciated for Switch 2. A new game, an Uprising port, gimme SOMETHING.
You've missed some amazing covers like Necrofantasia, What I'm Made Of, Full Steam VENGEANCE!!, Dingodile, etc. You should give 'em a check one of these days.
“Twinbellows!” Unironically though, so glad to hear so many people being introduced to this song again recently. Also “LOOK LIKE THIS BOUT’S GONNA BE RED HOT!”
I am not.exagerating whem I have not clicked a video so fast and turned the volume WAY UP in a very long time, you sir exceeded any expectations I had given how much I love KIU and this theme specifically, thank you so much!
Oh damn, i actually pitched this on the ballot! Thank you for bringing more light to this game! If you're at all interested, there is a way to continue the online play even today
The joy that came over me when I saw this notification! Kid Icarus Uprising is such a fantastic game and you just made an outstanding cover of this song
I HEARD CUPHEAD, i wonder what song is it gonna be, floral fury, one hell of a time, baking the wondertart, carnival kerfuffle, WHO KNOWS, THEY ALL BAMGERS
I swear to God that Kid Icarus: Uprising has one of the most different Styles in its soundtrack. Helped by the fact that has a ton of different amazing conposers from Yuzo Koshiro, to even Motoi Sakuraba (I love this man's work). Please do BB Channel from Fate/EXTRA CCC.
This is a pretty badass boss theme, but I have never played this game before. I am excited for the upcoming Cuphead song. I also came to request 'Scrap and build ourselves' from Eternal Sonata. Frédéric Chopin's Revolutionary and Winter Wind etudes, turned into a final boss theme by Motoi Sakuraba. The result is simply amazing. The only thing that would make it better is a cover by Jonny. Hence why this is request 195+.
If I had a nickel for every time the fourth GaMetal song in a year was a normal boss theme from a 3DS game that had received two covers previously, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice This has always been one of my favorite songs from KI:U, and you knocked it straight out of the park! The sound was absolutely great, and that solo in the middle? Perfection. The synth part during the second loop was also really great too! Now all we need is for KI:U to get ported, which will happen someday maybe god please. You nailed this one, Jonny, and I can't wait for the upcoming Cuphead song! (Would love for it to be either Railroad Wrath or Baking the Wondertart) Requests: 1. Barok van Zieks ~ Grim Reaper of the Old Bailey (The Great Ace Attorney Adventures) 2. Shadowbringers (Final Fantasy XIV: Shadowbringers) 3. Awe of She (Guilty Gear X) 4. The Almighty (Persona 4) 5. Transformation (The World Ends With You) 6. Airship Fortress (Mario Kart DS) 7. Battle! Zero Lab (Pokemon Scarlet & Violet) 8. Pure Furies ~ Whereabouts of the Heart (Touhou 15: Legacy of Lunatic Kingdom) 9. Soul Ablaze (Mega Man ZX Advent) 10. Rage Awakened (Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix) 11. The Buzz in the Grotto (Shovel Knight: King of Cards) 12. Pink Ball Activate! (Kirby Planet Robobot) 13. Smart Race (Deltarune Chapter 2) 14. Unexpectancy (Pizza Tower) 15. World Tournament Theme (Dragon Ball Fusions)
Damn this takes me back a bit, feels like forever ago Suggesting the Overworld theme from Faxanadu on NES Also suggesting New Messiah from Castlevania II: Belmont's Revenge on the Gameboy Also also suggesting Dancing Dragon Dungeon from Zelda Oracle of Seasons on GBC Also also also suggesting Raiden V - Final Stage Theme/Cystal of Abyss Also also also also suggesting Ivan Ooze's/Final Boss theme - Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers The Movie on SNES
Is there a new Cuphead thing coming? Pekora and Marine played the game, F.A.P. Bros platinum it, and now GaMetal is gonna do a Cuphead cover. This ain't a complain. Cuphead is awesome and I always welcome it!
Tfw when you're dodging frame-3 attacks one after another that take off 30-45% of your health each on 9.0 while using dash-charge shots to take down the boss ASAP while also praying your stamina doesn't run out... ...But the music is still a banger, so it's okay.
The first day of February begins. It's so cool you pulled Another Kid Icarus cover, you are truly awesome and i don't know how to say it. This Motoi Sakura person is a good composer, i like that. Please do the Love Coloured Master Spark from Touhou Project Imperishable Night featuring YaboiMatoi.
Check out Jonny's cover of Doom Dragon and Vordt of the Boreal Valley, then again many people know him for Golden Sun, but in my case I love Eternal Sonata's ost more.
@Scrap_and_build_ourselves then check out Jonny's Touhou DDC Metal Remix, Little Princess (Shinmyoumaru Sukuna's theme song) featuring RichaadEB. You will know the reason why I want to see an actual collab between him and Matoi.
Uprising is incredible. I don't even vibe with shooters and I sunk so many hours into it back in the day. Funny mix between "gave the 3DS library its identity" and "deserves way more than to be stuck on 3DS". I guarantee you'll find something to love there.
Sweet glory we’ve been on a roll these past few days. Surely he’s going to calm down now though- *”A BRAWL IS SURELY BREWING!”* As it All Crumbles Down (Underhero)
If Sakurai gives us KIU 2 or a port for the Switch 2, we will be eating so well. But until then, we can only hope we’re lucky enough for it to happen. Also means more time for Jonny to basically cover the entire KIU soundtrack by himself because this game has so many bangers. Still hoping we get a remix of Hades’ themes someday. Also Cuphead being next is super cool. Gotta wonder what it’ll be. Here are my remix requests: 1. Shooting Star triple remix (Megaman Starforce 1-3) 2. The Collision of Thunderstorms (Azure Striker Gunvolt) 3. Battle! Zero Lab (Pokémon Scarlet and Violet) 4. Future Gate/Theme of Hexazeon (Puzzle and Dragons) 5. Cosmic Clash and/or Hyperspace Rumble (LunarLux) 6. Infinite’s theme (Sonic Forces) 7. Bellum/Ghost Ship/Bellumbeck (The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass) 8. Defy the Legends (Pokémon Mystery Dungeon Red/Blue Rescue Team) 9. Roar of Dedede (Kirby and the Forgotten Lands) 10. Broly (DBS) Theme (Dragon Ball FighterZ)
This song is already goddamn peak and getting the Johnny treatment just pushes it higher! Maybe if I offer enough hearts, Lady Palutena will bring me a cover of Faith Is For The Transient People!
One of the most Epic boss fight music ever! I went nuts when I heard it in Uprising and SSBU! My current request list: Lava stage - Tetris attack / Panel de Pon The Death That I Deservioli - Pizza Tower Goat Simulator - Goat chill (main theme) Battletanx Global Assault - Anything really DK64 - Crystal Cave boss fight
Literally... I just bought Kid Icarus Uprising after losing my card when I was a kid, and it just came in. Now I have two great gifts!! Thanks guys!!!!!
The goddess' angel flies again! Didn't think I'd hear another Uprising track here, but it's always welcome, especially from someone as talented as you Keep on rockin'!
Holy cow I need to play this game again!! And yes, it NEEDS a port. Switch or Switch 2, I don't care. A remaster of this game is needed! Btw, do you do tutorials? I'm very a amateur acoustic player, but I think it's be fun to learn Dark Pit's theme.
I have an unfortunate foreshadowing that we will see anything from Kid Icarus in 2037 just so they can continue the 25 year joke, please let me be wrong
KI Uprising mentioned? In 2025?? Pal, you're spoiling us
This close to my birthday, too
happy early bday
Happy early birthday!
HAPPY EARLY BIRTHDAY!!!
Happy early birthday ;)!!
The most epic song to accompany a battle against a two-headed dog, a hydra whose heads constantly bicker, Satan’s heart, and I CAN’T HEAR YOU OVER ALL THIS AWESOME incarnate!
KIU is the game I played in the hospital while my dad was dying of cancer. Thank you for remembering this legendary game.
May he rest in peace
To anyone who thinks that Kid Icarus Uprising is impossible to play as a lefty, I got the footage just fine as a lefty.
Just set movement to ABXY and fire to R and use the stylus with your left hand. Worked quite well.
Personally as another lefty, I didn't rlly like using ABXY for moving. Just felt less fluid than using the circle pad, so I just deal with right-handed controls. I joke to others that I'm right-handed only for Uprising lol
Glad it works for you tho!
I’m left handed but I had no problem with having the stylus in my right hand and using the circle pad and L buttton. Dunno if using computer mouses with my right hand made it stable enough or what not
I enjoyed this fame as a lefty, did exactly what you did too
I’m a lefty and just used default controls, it was a bit awkward but it worked fine for the most part
My dude if you're going to give me terrible control for being a lefty I'd rather use default. All options suck in that regard honestly
Putting this on the "Songs I'm surprised weren't done sooner" list
Kid Icarus Uprising? On MY 2025!?
*H E L L Y E A H*
Nice touch with the quieter bit at 2:32-2:40. Really adds to the buildup of the song.
Kid Icarus Uprising appreciation will always be accepted in this house.
Excellent work with this cover!
WAIT YOU'RE DOING A CUPHEAD SONG NEXT??
This soundtrack feels so criminally underrated sometimes. It's been so long since a new remix of any bit of music of Kid Icarus: Uprising was brought to my attention, that when the algorithm alerted me to this one in particular, you best believe I dropped whatever it was I was doing to listen in its entirety. And yet it still surpassed my high expectations. Now here's hoping our collective praying and hoping can finally will an Uprising port to the Switch 2 into existence. I've been dying of anticipation, bro.
Still holding out hope for a Kid Icarus Uprising remaster or port on the Switch or Switch 2. It's such an amazing game
We all hold out hope that this game will get the attention it deserves.
I've admittedly not watched a GaMetal video in a long while. At least a year and a half, probably. But when I tell you that the notification for this summoned me IMMEDIATELY...
I missed you, Jonny.
Also, please... any Kid Icarus would be appreciated for Switch 2. A new game, an Uprising port, gimme SOMETHING.
Considering the potential mouse features and Sakurais unknown new project…
Oh god this might legit be happening
@M1RACLEWEAVER DON'T GIVE ME HOPE LIKE THIS
You've missed some amazing covers like Necrofantasia, What I'm Made Of, Full Steam VENGEANCE!!, Dingodile, etc. You should give 'em a check one of these days.
KID ICARUS UPRISING MENTION, LETS GO!
and now we wait another 25 years for word from nintendo
I literally was looking for remixes to this song yesterday. Amazing timing
“Twinbellows!”
Unironically though, so glad to hear so many people being introduced to this song again recently.
Also
“LOOK LIKE THIS BOUT’S GONNA BE RED HOT!”
The Underworld's faithful watchdog.
I still own this game and it's fantastic!
The soundtrack is an absolute banger too!
"HADES."
"PIT."
"HADES."
"PIT."
"HADEEEES."
PIIIIIIIT."
"IT'S ON!"
One of the catchiest choruses I've heard in a while.
Still can't believe this stacked composer list.
I am not.exagerating whem I have not clicked a video so fast and turned the volume WAY UP in a very long time, you sir exceeded any expectations I had given how much I love KIU and this theme specifically, thank you so much!
The original hit heavy, and now Jonny's rendition hits even heavier.
Summoned by Uprising xD Man been wishing to play this again for ages, such a gem. Thanks for the cover, keep up the solid work!
The drop at 2:32 kicks all of the ass oh my god
Another Kid Icarus: Uprising cover!!! I gasped and clicked on this video so fast! I love this! I hope you do another KIU cover in the future.
I wish they would give us another Kid Icarus game, or at least port Uprising to Switch.
If Switch 2 does have a mouse function, them this might be our best chance for a port/remaster of the game.
It's about dang time! The trifecta is complete!
Oh damn, i actually pitched this on the ballot! Thank you for bringing more light to this game! If you're at all interested, there is a way to continue the online play even today
He rocked to close to the sun. That is why this video is fire 🔥🔥🔥
IVE WAITED YEARS FOR THIS
This was so worth the wait!!!
Incredible cover as always!!!
SENDING U ALL MY POWER KID ICARUS NEEDS A PORT SO BAD
The joy that came over me when I saw this notification! Kid Icarus Uprising is such a fantastic game and you just made an outstanding cover of this song
this man spoiling us
3 remixes in 3 days
Dude that was INCREDIBLE!
I remember this song the most in that one trailer: "Wait, you want to fight too, Lady Palutena?"
I HEARD CUPHEAD, i wonder what song is it gonna be, floral fury, one hell of a time, baking the wondertart, carnival kerfuffle, WHO KNOWS, THEY ALL BAMGERS
Kid icarus Chad's we are winning
I swear to God that Kid Icarus: Uprising has one of the most different Styles in its soundtrack. Helped by the fact that has a ton of different amazing conposers from Yuzo Koshiro, to even Motoi Sakuraba (I love this man's work).
Please do BB Channel from Fate/EXTRA CCC.
This is a pretty badass boss theme, but I have never played this game before. I am excited for the upcoming Cuphead song.
I also came to request 'Scrap and build ourselves' from Eternal Sonata. Frédéric Chopin's Revolutionary and Winter Wind etudes, turned into a final boss theme by Motoi Sakuraba. The result is simply amazing. The only thing that would make it better is a cover by Jonny. Hence why this is request 195+.
Being playing it yesterday.
It's an absolute gem in every way possible.
Especialy for the tunes !!
The cut to the strings at 2:32 was so powerful.
Just like in the original. This game was a gem.
This is one of my favorites!
Let's go man well done job as always
A song so amazing but so short. You made it perfect!
If I had a nickel for every time the fourth GaMetal song in a year was a normal boss theme from a 3DS game that had received two covers previously, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice
This has always been one of my favorite songs from KI:U, and you knocked it straight out of the park! The sound was absolutely great, and that solo in the middle? Perfection. The synth part during the second loop was also really great too! Now all we need is for KI:U to get ported, which will happen someday maybe god please.

Great remix!!!!!!!
❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
OH SHIT DO I SEE MUGMAN AND CUPHEAD APPROACHING LET'S GOOOOO
YEESSSSSS KID ICARUS UPRISING!!!!!!!
I was NOT expecting a Kid Icarus drop lol, how great! This soundtrack never gets old.
...I feel a sudden urge to play Nintendogs with a two-headed hellhound or something like that, is that weird?
Requesting Ark Mall from Astral Chain.
This is an awesome early birthday present lol I love this game's soundtrack
Dude I love this song!!! I’m so happy to see this game mentioned.
Though it is kinda weird to hear the song without the banter
Is there a new Cuphead thing coming? Pekora and Marine played the game, F.A.P. Bros platinum it, and now GaMetal is gonna do a Cuphead cover. This ain't a complain. Cuphead is awesome and I always welcome it!
Tfw when you're dodging frame-3 attacks one after another that take off 30-45% of your health each on 9.0 while using dash-charge shots to take down the boss ASAP while also praying your stamina doesn't run out...
...But the music is still a banger, so it's okay.
Tfw you are at the end of a 20 minute chapter trying to do the damageless run and this starts playing
The first day of February begins. It's so cool you pulled Another Kid Icarus cover, you are truly awesome and i don't know how to say it. This Motoi Sakura person is a good composer, i like that.
Please do the Love Coloured Master Spark from Touhou Project Imperishable Night featuring YaboiMatoi.

Not porting this game to Switch was the biggest disservice Nintendo has ever committed
There's always Switch 2!
GOATED
When you take your Twinbellows for a walk and rack up some serious Nintendogs points together
I don’t think I’ve ever clicked on a video so fast, absolutely amazing!
MY FAV GAME OF ALL TIME!!! LETS GOOOO! WOOOOOOO!
P.S. i second a port for Switch, NINTENDO I'M BEGGING
Wow, I didn't expect the gameplay to look like that. Excuse me while I add another game to the list of "Games I want to check out because of GaMetal"
Uprising is incredible. I don't even vibe with shooters and I sunk so many hours into it back in the day. Funny mix between "gave the 3DS library its identity" and "deserves way more than to be stuck on 3DS". I guarantee you'll find something to love there.
Sweet glory we’ve been on a roll these past few days. Surely he’s going to calm down now though-
*”A BRAWL IS SURELY BREWING!”*
As it All Crumbles Down (Underhero)
THE HITS JUST KEEP COMING!!!
Sir Gametal piercing through the forces of the underworld with a bang. Well done sir, well done.
woah, I'm surprised this wasn't done until now. It's a total gem.
If Sakurai gives us KIU 2 or a port for the Switch 2, we will be eating so well. But until then, we can only hope we’re lucky enough for it to happen. Also means more time for Jonny to basically cover the entire KIU soundtrack by himself because this game has so many bangers. Still hoping we get a remix of Hades’ themes someday.

KID ICARUS MENTION IN 2025 WE ARE SO BACK
Kid Icarus Uprising! Yes!
Absolutely killed it!
“Call this a little… divine intervention.”
KID ICARUS MENTIONED! LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
I agree, we need a port ASAP
Incredible! Love your content! 🔥🎶🔥
This song is already goddamn peak and getting the Johnny treatment just pushes it higher!
Maybe if I offer enough hearts, Lady Palutena will bring me a cover of Faith Is For The Transient People!
Could you please do any antonblast boss theme?
No doubt, this is the best 3DS game, and there's some FIERCE competition.
"Bark like a dog!" 🗣🔥🔥🔥
Super cool and underrated song!! Very nice to hear you cover it!! I loved it!! Now can we get a port or new game on Switch 2??
One of the most Epic boss fight music ever! I went nuts when I heard it in Uprising and SSBU!
My current request list:
Lava stage - Tetris attack / Panel de Pon
The Death That I Deservioli - Pizza Tower
Goat Simulator - Goat chill (main theme)
Battletanx Global Assault - Anything really
DK64 - Crystal Cave boss fight
I really want this game to come back. It was so fucking good.
3:20 WOOOOOO CUPHEAD UP NEXT!
Literally... I just bought Kid Icarus Uprising after losing my card when I was a kid, and it just came in. Now I have two great gifts!! Thanks guys!!!!!
Oh hey, one of my favorite boss battle themes of all time, from one of my favorite games of all time!
I literally just heard this song in Smash Ultimate like a few minutes ago.
Also cool remix.
THIS MATCH IS GOING TO GET RED HOT!! YOUR UP!!!
The goddess' angel flies again! Didn't think I'd hear another Uprising track here, but it's always welcome, especially from someone as talented as you
Keep on rockin'!
This was amazing!!!
Still one of my favourite games ever. Praying we can get it on Switch 2 for more people to be able to experience
I clicked this video so fast you would've thought I was trying to get a boss rush world record.
Holy cow I need to play this game again!! And yes, it NEEDS a port. Switch or Switch 2, I don't care. A remaster of this game is needed!
Btw, do you do tutorials? I'm very a amateur acoustic player, but I think it's be fun to learn Dark Pit's theme.
I have an unfortunate foreshadowing that we will see anything from Kid Icarus in 2037 just so they can continue the 25 year joke, please let me be wrong
13 years until the next game let's gooo
Thank you for making ONE good thing happen in January 2025
NO WAY IT HAPPENED THE STARS HAVE ALIGNED
Amazing remix for one of the best boss battle themes 👏 👏 👏
Challenger Approaching: Cuphead & Mugman.
cuphead cover next :eyes:
Awesome! 👏
GaMetal does it again 🤘🎸
OMG THIS CANT BE REAL, MORE KID ICARUS OST PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i was just thinking about how cool it'd be to have a port today. weird timing huh?
