Kirby spinoffs are lame

They released a kart racer 5 months after a new mario kart and 2 months after a new sonic racer

of course it would flop and die instantly

No Adeleine.

Too expensive, hey should give us a new city trial map as free dlc to revive the game for a few days

Not a whole lot, its still the best exclusive on the console so far.
Missing a few obvious characters
Only one city trial map, that does get predictable around the 50hr mark
Select a stadium at the end ruins any sembelance of competition in ranked mode
But honestly all the good shit heavily outweigh these stumbles.
>its dead
Can still find matches with people who are fellow enjoyers of kirby airride, its a blessing this game is repellant to normie cattle

>>748121298
Perfect game, you're a retard.

>>748122140
>Can still find matches
lucky you, all I get is errors even with worldwide matchmaking

We aren't going to get it on NSO now. Same with Metroid Prime, Pikmin 1 & 2, Thousand Year Door and Master Quest.

This game's existence is beyond baffling. Nobody even cared about the first one outside of “that game you rented for a weekend” or “your cousin happened to have it and you messed around for a few hours”

>>748121298
why the fuck did they think making 7-8 separate queues for this game was a good idea
for all its faults at least sonic crossworlds was smart enough to realize it shouldn't have more than 2 queues up at a time

>"I will not make any updates for this game"
Congratulations Sakurai, you killed any future player base.

No one gave a single shit about the original.
It's funny seeing people fellate this anemic game and call it a masterpiece though.

Most of them are bots, AirRiders does that thing where it uses realistic-looking usernames to make you think you've got a room full of people.
Unless you're playing private rooms, high chance you're mostly against bots.

Absolutely nothing, it's perfectly fine and complete at release game.

>>748121298
PC port when

>>748124338
>complete at release game.
+$400 for amiibo (released in waves over the course of a year)

>>748124742
>figurines
You play games (software), not figurines.

>>748124812
yeah, good thing they're just figurines and they unlock nothing within the game, otherwise it wouldn't be complete at release like you said

>>748125036
Just for your shitty attempt of argument I'm bound to assume now that said unlocks are completely cosmetic and the game just works without it just fine while you try to find anything to complain about.

>>748125263
>bro its just horse armor

>>748125430
The problem here is giving it attention to the horse armor. The amiibo is the figure first, what it does to software is last. Unless you're one of those retards that think amiibos' worth is because an interaction that doesn't matter in the big picture. Even worse yu're comparing it to the digital dlc where you got nothing

$70

>>748123068
I gave a shit about the original, I have a copy that isn't even a players choice copy.

>>748121298
$70 for a GameCube game

I'm aware that a lot of games are half bots but whatever as long as there are some humans I'm ok with it

>>748125569
I think you're getting off the main point, if someone calls a game with a year of a cosmetic add-ons complete at release you probably wouldn't be surprised to see people disagreeing, you can try excuse it by saying that doesn't matter but ultimately it does exist, and this is putting aside the fact that trainable CPUs are locked behind them

>>748121298
bad release timing
one small thing that annoys me the direct showed every character before launch
it stated after everyone was revealed there would be more characters to unlock
>1 unlockable character
not even a rosterfag like it would have been fine if only half of the cast was shown and the rest were a surprise you know?

another thing i know the irony that i complain a lot about games having dlc that either wasn't needed or should have been part of the base game but this is a very rare case of a game i want dlc for. which will not happen as the game did not sell well enough to warrant that.

It's one game that could actually fucking need some DLC and new content updates.
Compared to Kirby Air rider the game is WAAY too fast and in city trial you become super fast way too fast and it because "too" chaotic compared to the first game.
It's crazy that nobody else says this, the gameplay is way too zoomy and the first game had a way better balance.

Also the new city trial map is worse, it's too vertical while the older map was more horisontal with better landmarks.

>>748121298
Why buy this when I can get MKW for the same price? It just seems redundant

>>748121298
>No Escargoon
>No Adeleine

But sure, let us add two fucking Waddle Dees and a Cappy. That'll show 'em.

>>748121298
Nothing, it's a fantastic game, incredibly polished and beloved. The game sold fine for what it is and will no doubt be an evergreen title that sells constantly throughout the Switch 2's lifespan.

People are only pretending to hate it because these days gamers are used to live service games instead of games.

>>748121298
>70 bucks
>came out very soon after Mario Kart World (it's not the same type of game but most customers are just gonna see "oh hey another cartoony Nintendo kart racer")
>niche
>lack of other stronger Switch 2 offerings to help buoy it

New city trial map SUCKS

i really wish they would reintroduce escargoon, if they ever did a kirby rpg that can really focus on character personality id be mad if he wasnt there

i played air riders first and then after completing the checklist in it went back to try air ride and found it totally unplayable with how slow it was

>>748121298
One map was an absolutely bad shit insane decision

It isn't F-Zero

and it isn't Sega

it's 50 now instead of 80 so i'm gonna get it, seems like a fun game but the price was too high for me

I saw the Japanese version was $40 on temu and it's tempting. I need to try out getting a Switch 2 game from there, apparently they support English even though they aren't the US version I've seen people getting crazy deals.
