Evil Nova bros, its fucking over
TWO.
>>560823772hackurai does it again
>>560823862But there are three....
>>560823772who is this mysterious malicious force, it boggles the mind.
>>560823968If anything I feel like it would be Nightmare fucking with the wish before it reaches Nova.
>>560823968cute...
>>560823968fuckass grape just keeps coming back because getting nuked wasn't enough for him was it
>>560823968It’s not Marx you blithering retard, he’s not *that* encompassing.
>>560824379I wouldn't put it past Hackurai to just say "It's Marx again!"
>>560824182IT WAS ME AUSTIN.>>560824379I wasn't implying that.
>No K64 characters as playable characters in KARs>But here's a 02 boss fightI'm still confused
>>560827665 (me)Actually, I think I know the reasonMaybe they just didn't wanna risk potential upskirts
>>560827798>Maybe they just didn't wanna risk potential upskirts>only female racers are Lalala (orb) and Susie (tube)...you're probably right but it's still odd the crystal got in over any of the "main" 64 cast as an assist
>>560827798>>560827942>risk potential cast upskirtsI don't buy it, they can easily just use a shadowy void cover or just give them bloomers, ribbon fairy was in such a perspective in 64
>>560828765>ribbon fairy was in such a perspective
>>560828765>shadowy void coverPretty sure CERO and the like would still take offense
>>560828823have you not played the final boss in 64
>>560828892>Pretty sure CERO and the like would still take offenseThe shadowy void cover censor has been in a lot of games without issue. Which is why it's infamous.
>>560827798the only 64 characters in the game were magman, 02, and a crystal without the fairy that always holds them, i don't think upskirts were the problem
>>560829165Plus star allies had ribbon and nobody batted an eye.
>>560823968This minigame character will NEVER be a main villain.
>>560827665Can't risk Adeleine taking Rocky the Rock's spot. That's the character with the bigger fanbase.
>>560829678Her ass wasnt facing the camera at all times
>>560830734couldn't they just... make her sit upright? make her dress longer to keep the underwear less obvious? 64 shows her from behind in the opening cutscene anyway, so i don't think shimomura cared...
>>560827798>>560827665>Flopworlds is adding another loliThey literally have no excuse, if that, Air Riders can do it too and better.
>>560823772Ticky tocky
The death race even feels like the way Air Ride mode was originaly meant to be played. There's so much variety and flare between picks now and all the original tryhard picks for the mode like Rick in a Wheelie Scooter are useless. Also I saw a Starman on a Paper Star in the first race...he didn't last 10 seconds.
Had a fun nebula belt race
Just killed 3 Ricks in a single race. Battle Chariot+DDD combo will instagib him unless he's on a heavy machine. He didn't even got the chance to say goodbye to his kangaroo wife.
>>560823772You don't play the "he's actually neutral" card when he went out of his way to screw Zorah.
>>560849478That was ALSO the work of the perfidious Malicious Force Jones, everyone's favorite developer interview exclusive character.
Villain that wants to kill all mortals so that there won't be more monsters like Dark Matter.
>>560846638>Wheelie Scooter Rick>tryhardIn Yellow rank maybe. Scooter is mediocre as hell, almost no actually skilled Air Ride player will use it. Good Ricks usually play Slick, Bulk or Bike.
>>560846638I saw a Paper Marx and I think he was just doing it for the funsies
>>560829438>he forgot about plugg again
>>560827665>No Painter Loli, in fact no Lolis in general>Zero can show up... as a digital construct lmfao>No Elfilin>No Fluff>Helpers to Hero V2: Electric Boogaloo>What? You want me to use modern Kirby chars? FINEEEEEE I'll reuse models from Star Allies>DLC nonexistent>HATSSSSSS>AMIIBOOOOOOOOS>MY SPECIAL DEDEDE OC TURNS INTO A LION TO SYMBOLIZE ME ESCAPING FROM NINTENDO! WOE IS ME >No Brown or Shadow color palette for Kirby; you MUST use the super duper special pink color to have the Ultra Sword special>Also btw I saw you guys having fun making jokes about Nova being evil / retarded. That's wrong now, he was being manipulated. Bye.Has a fandom ever been spat on as hard as this before? Every decision was clearly made out of IMMENSE spite.
>>560823772
>>560862747The way of the auteur is to feel your work is perpetually misunderstood and to try and make everyone see things the way you do. Which is also the way of the autist, as it happens. Sakurai should team up with Kojimbo to make something truly incomprehensible.
>>560827665 well no standard dee got in
>>560866026>Sakurai should team up with Kojimbo to make something truly incomprehensible.Sakurai, Kojimbles, Yoko Taro, Suda, and Swery walk into a bar...
>>560866026Kojimbo fled like a bitch from the frenchies during the game awards, he even left a trail of tears like those animes he hates. >>560846638The Scooter is the best machine for Susie... aaaaand probably no one else.
>>560868204>Kojimbo fled like a bitch from the frenchies during the game awards, he even left a trail of tears like those animes he hates.Hey I'm not here to argue he isn't a hack, I'm just saying he's higher on his own farts than any other big name dev since (maybe) Phil Fish. At least similarly arrogant faggots like Sakurai and the Platinum Games guy still make gameplay their focus.
>>560868204>spend years working on game>game gets completely ignored because a few frogs got some Chinese loans and decided to pretend they were a smol indie team (over 100 people worked on Turdy Tree)Poor Kojumbler. Well, poor anyone other than the frogs. Bastards.
>>560869237My favorite part is that when he finally got the money to do the game he always dreamt of, he stole the premise from a Yoshi game and the core mecanic of the gameplay from another Yoshi game.
>>560867541and why don't we throw in some special guests too?
>>560862747>Has a fandom ever been spat on as hard as this before?Advance Wars got a lame remake and Kid Icarus Uprising isn't allowed to get a port or direct sequel due to development woes from Sakurai on top of purposely making people hate the IP by making it overabundant then giving back very little by the next game.
>>560874783How about Golden Sun, the series where one mid entry permanently doomed Camelot to just making sports games til the end of time and not even being allowed to throw in references to their own work? Mario Hoops was allowed to have White Mage, Black Mage and Moogle because Square made it but Camelot isn't so much as allowed to squeeze a djinn into the crowd textures on Mario Tennis.
>>560875389Golden Sun was taken out back under direct order of Square who didn’t want another rpg competitor.>source?It was revealed to me in a dream.
>>560862747>Has a fandom ever been spat on as hard as this before? Boy, do you have ANY idea how good Kirby has it compared to others. Let's beging with my favorite example Rayman.>Original and charming 2D platformer from the 90s could keep up with Mario, DK, Sonic, Earthworm Jim and Megaman >Mascot of a new and plucky studio named Ubisoft >Fairly good and lucrative jump to 3D, a step that killed most of his peers >Mascot status stolen by a high exect test audience project called AssCreed >Own IP highjacked by another audience test project about some extremely annoying rabbits >Mutiple years of nothing (like 10) until gets picked as the ginea pig for an engine that makes 2D paintings come to life and yes, Shadman worked on it>Rayman's back baby and he even humiliated 2D Mario, something that the blue roadkill never could do >Nintendo was so impressed they even paid for the exclusivity of the next game also more people jerk off to the fairies of that game than to any other fairy ever (sorry Ripple)>For the WiiU>The WiiU game did very bad even if it was better than the last >Back to playing second fiddle to the rabbits>Butt of all jokes about sellots in the Far Fry cartoon >Final time being seen on a game is as a DLC in Mario and Rabits TTS game...as a DLC character...and a musical number about how his life sucks >Ubisoft is on the red and selling their IPs, nobody is willing to even make an offer for Rayman so this might be where his story ends I dare anyone here to find a fandom more miserable and spat upon by the IP holder than Rayman.
>>560875389Shining series was better lil tim, gotta let it go.
>>560877902>>Ubisoft is on the red and selling their IPs, nobody is willing to even make an offer for Rayman so this might be where his story endsI think Atari is handling the physical for the Anniversary edition, imagine if somehow things end with Rayman under the same roof as fuckin Bubsy
>>560881201Gaming as a medium has been floundering alot the last few years, it just isn't sustainable to keep things going the way they have been.
>>560877301That's bullshit but I believe it>>560880568Yeah, all those Shining cameos lately really make up for the lack of Golden Sun references... I was so excited when John Shininginthedarkness was DLC for Smash
>>560877902Yeah, kirby is probably the easiest platforming franchise to be a fan of besides maybe mario, at least since the 2010s, there have been barely any droughts and no major stinkers or games that divide the fandom. Compare that to>crash>sonic>spyro>sly cooper>jax and daxter>donkey kong>wario>megaman>pac man>rayman>littlebigplanet>ratchet and clank>banjo kazooie>conker>starfy>yoshi>ape escape>psychonauts>super meat boy>earthworm jim
>>560886486>probably the easiest platforming franchise to be a fan ofNot if you care for any of the characters outside of the main 4.
>>560877902>Butt of all jokes about sellots in the Far Fry cartoonThe most tragic thing is that jewbisoft hired Balak to work on le gritty lowbrow French cartoon when he could have did something cooler.Also no Betilla tiddies.
>>560886486Yoshi is the easiest fix over there. His only problem is that Nintendo gave him the horrible job is being baby's first videogame when Yoshi's moveset could and should push him the hardest of all 2D platformers. He's a Ferrari, stuck on a city without roads like Norway.
>>560886486Donkey Kong, Mega Man and Psychonauts escaped this fate
>>560889258Err Megaman might be in a "worst than dead situation">Mobile game was sabotaged from the top because they didn't like that it made more money than the Street Fighter one >Money stolen to shill and bloat Street Fighter VI >Censored games in the collections because Capcom is woke and Megaman was mostly made by people they hate now like IntiCreates >NFTs>Capcom will whore the IP to the worst people like to Warner Brothers to make a cartoon where Zero is a black girl or all the horrible Sonic crossovers (that one hurts the most because there's a lot of bad blood between those fandoms)>Capcom went out of it's way to overwork the last director it had to an almost early grave just out of spite>Only gets new stuff to spite Coonman or to wash away Capcom's fuck ups, yes this is why they have a game in the works >What made the IP florish was it's willingness to experiment with new sagas, now nothing but Classic is seen as profitable and even that one was defanged by Capcom's (I shit you not this is how they are called) diversity commisarsAs I said, Sakurai's favoritism is the most first world problem a fandom could have.
>>560891056Mega Man 12 is worth more than your life
>>560886736Even us Dark Matter Saga epicurians got some love with Star Allies>>560889258Mega Man is worse off than anything, stuck under niggercattle Capcom's AAA slop
Stephen Merchant as Marx in the Kirby movie
i really think crystal shards 2 is probably going to be the next 3d game if the next mainline isn't a 2d game
>>560899746We already had Crystal Shards 2, it was called Star Crossed World
i die a lot in this air riders event
>>560907940Which combo are you using?
>>560907940I just let them take the lead at the start. It's such a non stop brawl that unless you have a very heavy combo you will lose 50 to 80 % of your HP in the first 20 seconds of a race. Better let them kill one another, pick up a Plasma or a Fire and just finish them from behind.
One who spreads death and destruction must accept the pursuit. He will never be far from either. But what could be more beautiful than doing work that puts your soul at risk? Because that's what it means to be alive.
I figured out who is the true evil force behind Nova:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qyuiujk1Sl0&list=RDQyuiujk1Sl0&start_radio=1
The true evil force is a malevolent being known only as… Dick C Normus…
>>560919518I thought it was hugh Jass.
>T-There's a secret villain controlling nova>No I won't have it as a unlockable story in game>Won't even have a hint to it ingame>(Proceeds to stop all Kirby air riders updates)>I'll tell you in this random blurb! >I probably won't even make another kirby game for like 3 decades, but think about that secret villain i won't elaborate onHackurai...I...
>>560921334sakurai doing this a few weeks after the updates got frozen really is a kick in the pants, why would hackurai pride himself saying "THE KIRBY GAME IS FINISHED" for months then have this extra "lore" in a secret vault outside the game
>>560921581this is robobo miiverse all over again...>>560889258mega man isn't in a particularly GOOD state, what with new games only coming out every five years... and the compilations skip the oddity titles for some reason... and the street fighting is more important to them...but the games still exist, you can still play them, people are still making fangames. that's something, i suppose...
>>560907940I got good results with the hop star, it's reasonably bulky and lets you escape hairy situations while everyone below you is killing each other.
>>560923238>but the games still exist, you can still play them, people are still making fangames. that's something, i suppose...Nigga you just described the upsides of SonicBeing "Sonic with less official games" is not a great place to be
>>560923720blood for the blood god.
King Dedede
>>560924848Mega Man can claim a past of glory and a promise of good game if they were to ever be made. Sonic had like 34 years of stinker after stinker and the only people backing that up like to eat shit so much they make 98% of the scat community on the internet.
>somehow Kirby ended up making a far more aggresive and deathly race war game than Twisted Metal
>>560910246Rick w/ warpstar
>>560952083 why is this model so fucked up dude
>>560947457>race wardon't.... call it that..............
>>560955619u like
>>560955724I'll call it whatever I want fuccboihttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=stjOxJuZfx4
how would the events of steel ball run change if they had air ride machines instead of horses
>>560955619Optimization, unironically
>Post "mario is better than sonic" on /sthg/>Post "sonic is better than mario" on /smbg/MwahahahahaI shall tear these generals apart and NO ONE shall be happy but MEAND THEY DESERVE TO BE UNHAPPY FOR BEING SUCH CORPO BOOTLICKING AUTISTIC SHITHEADS
>>560964156Well anon I just think that's rather mean>>560964156
>>560964329And? They deserve it
>>560965029
>>560964667I think it's uncalled for and rather rude
pancakes for magolor :)
>>560932279>imageSakurai could easily tie his newest lore to Void if he wasn't such a biased fuck.
i wish i could fly around in skyah irl on a real air ride machine
>>560967067So you think he's the kind of guy who puts syrup on pancakes and if so what flavor?
>>560891056>there's a lot of bad blood between those fandoms)I'm sickened, but curious.
>>560967058They deserve it for constantly flamewarring themselves
>>560960934They would drop the pretense and start killing each other from the moment the flag moves.
>>560968206Honestly sounds like schizo ramblings man.
>>560968206It's not that hard to understand, both sides stand at opposite sides of every argument. For example; >great games that get shit vs games that get everything they could ask for >side that will turn on the company that owns their thing if they fail vs the biggest collection of shill one could hope for >Absolute fear of a Netflix or movie adaptation because they know how hard it will destroy the thing they love vs the biggest Hollywood slop slurpers since the Kojima fandom collapsedAnd that's just the tip of the iceberg.
>>560891056>all the horrible sonic crossoversWhat are you talking about? There were two. One was generally considered really good, and one was generally considered dogshit.>>560968206The fandoms don't hate each other at all. They barely have any reason to interact. All I've ever seen is mutual sympathy because of Worlds Unite indirectly killing both their comics.
>>560978004ian flynn floundered on mega man, and i'm glad he never got to write kirby.
>>560945278Well you got me there.>>560964156/sthg/ is too busy raging about people posting western sonic media to care about Mario/smbg/ is too busy seething about the movie to care about Sonic>>560967109>sakurai could easily care about parts of the franchise that he didn't inventI think you will find that that is the single hardest thing for him to do.>>560978213TBQH I enjoyed Archie Mega Man more than Megamix/Gigamix up until the crossovers, and even the first crossover had its merits.
>>560978004No both were seen as bad but one of those had the Sonic fanbase hyping it up. Also yes they do stand on the opposite side in every debate possible. >New Sonic show from Netflix >/sthg/ oh great more slop to slup>New Mega Man show from Netflix >/mmg/ oh great we are about to get Castlevania'd... for the second time.
>>560980680I thought /stg/ fucking HATED Prime
Spell of Ragebait: Starfy, Pac-Man, and Zelda are ALL than Kirby.
What machines have you guys made? i've been after any Frieren and Teto machines i could find
>>560983968Is King D-Mind meant to be Dark Mind possessing Shadow Dedede?
>>560983968Only things that I doubt anybody here have heard of. Mostly from Balster Master Zero.
>>560978604>seething about the movieWhy? I'm going to see it in a few weeks with my folks and it looks much better than the first.
>>560989636Woke girlboss misandrist generic hollywood illumination SLOP! It RUINED the iconic and classic character Wart by putting him in a casino!Or so I've been told by the thread schizo(s?), it looks cute and I was very pleased to see SMB2 characters other than Shy Guy Bobomb and Birdo returning for the first time in a long time. Hoping to see my nigga Tri-Clyde.
>>560992804>spoilerMario 2 actually Mario Advance was one of my first Marios many many years ago and it gave me a soft spot for a lot of what we've seen here so far, so I'm right there with you. I guess that's what they meant by "deep cuts" back when it was first announced.>Hoping to see my nigga Tri-ClydeCrossing my fingers too, anon.
>>560982894Sonic prime is just boring and obnoxious, the boom show at least had some funny lines.nothing will beat the GOAT that is PINGAS
>>560989636They blackwashed Yoshi. He even aims his eggs sideways now.
>>560993583The original Sonic cartoons had it nailed man. AOSTH, SATAM... even Underground had its moments.
>>560993892underground had some QUALITY animation.
>>560993583AoSTH was genuinely just Looney Tunes but with a hedgehog that said "gotta speed keed", never took itself seriously unless it was trying to tell kids not to ride washing machines, and it was fantastic for it. SatAM was always the lesser of the two in my eyes even though most people seem to have the opposite opinion.
Kirby?
>>560994661I think SatAM was just trying too hard to be BTAS without understanding what made BTAS great.The same thing happened with Ninja turtles infamous "red sky" seasons.
>>560994661SATAM adds a little more drama and a little more Ferngully to it, has more of an ensemble cast. I think it will depend heavily on whether you like Robotnik as a comical bumbler, or you like the moodier, more oppressive atmosphere lent by SATAM's megacities and legions of swatbots (who have a sick ass design). Personally I love them both and think they reflect the peak of Sonic both as a comedy and taking itself more seriously, respectively, and Jaleel White nails the role in both cases.
>>560994965THEM CHIPS ARE FOR KIRBYAND I AM KIRBYTHAT MEANS THEM CHIPS ARE FOR ME.
>>560994965KIRBY KIRBY THAT'S THE NAME YOU SHOULD KNOW!
>>560995203I'd argue SATAM wasn't that serious either when you consider pic related
>>560995052>>560995203Oh, don't get me wrong, I still liked SatAM quite a bit. It's more a testament to how much I fucking LOVED Adventures than anything. (Oh, and second anon, you're right on the money, its hammy overacting loser take on Robotnik is three quarters of why I prefer it, kek)
>>560994965Cunchadetumadreee!!!
>>560995513Kino... take me back. This is classic 4chan core, anybody who hates this should be banned for being underage (tn: younger than me).
>>560995683I actually did own the book that came from at one point in time.which Kirby character could we meme into the "no fun allowed robot"
>>560995971Rick if we go by gameplay, Metaknight by lore.
>>560995971Same hereMetaKnight, absolutely.
>>560995971HR-H is the one that comes to mind, but Meta Knight might fit better given the events of Revenge.
>Go buy the Meta Knight Air Riders amiibo (sold out surprisingly fast here but apparently local store had specifically 1 left in store)>The box feels more cumbersome to handle than the Bandana Dee one>Get home>Side by side...somehow I get the impression Sakurai's wanted to do a Meta Knight amiibo with a big ass flowing cape for a long while because goodness it feels excessive. I do like how they painted the gradients on the Dark Star, looks pretty sleek. Now I'm wondering just how fuckhueg the Legendary Machine amiibos'll be, guess that'd explain why they're the first ones to come with the Riders pre-mounted in the packaging
>>560995971Haltmann.
>>560996507Forgot to attach pic but that gave me an excuse to take a top down one, damn the Riders amiibos feel a bit excessive with their size but they look so good that I think it's worth it
>>560997410That's something I've noticed too, alot of the newer amiibo's seem pretty sizable when put near the ones from the early days.
>>560997598>newer amiibo's seem pretty sizable when put near the ones from the early days.Feels like we're slowly inching from figure to mini statue territory in a way honestly, the jump in price does sting a bit but credit where it's due, you ARE physically getting more out of it. but ow my wallet still
>>560997410>>560996507What a majestic borb.I'm kind of amazed Bandana Dee got an Amiibo at all over one of Sakurai's favored sons, but I guess Dedede is getting two so maybe he was able to better tolerate not putting Marx on there.
What should a Kirby movie be like?
>>560998031something something ow my fire balls.
>>560998031Whimsical ghibliesque tour of Dream Land says my Dark Matter Saga loving ass
>>560998031The more importation question is who should handle a Kirby movie?
the direct trailer for forgotten land had that whole "sword swinging, adventure" bit right?
>>560998830you know the "to be a great hero you need to be a sword swinging, fire breathing, powerful warrior...and also pink" one, or was it star allies?
i just fucking EXPLODED at the finish line LOLMAO
>>560997410This makes it sting extra hard the lack of Susie on these.
>>561002713you in the market for a uh, sizable jar there anon?
>>560998014Bandana Dee is Designated Player 2 at this point. It'd be like having a Mario Kart Amiibo line with Mario getting one but Luigi NOT getting one.
I trust that I can leave this Pep Drink right here and no one will drink it
>>561028952Luigi is the least liked character in the Mario main cast and his year nearly killed Nintendo.
>>561044090sad!
wonder whats going on in skyah rn
>>561050489Do not look into the skies.Nothing is out there out of the ordinary.
>>561028952>Bandana Dee is Designated Player 2 at this point. It'd be like having a Mario Kart Amiibo line with Mario getting one but Luigi NOT getting one.Bananda dee is player 4 at best, don't get cocky faggot
>>561051841Look narratively he's the "Player 2" which is to say he has no impact on the story. He never can move the story. He's just a background figure in cutscenes as player 2 in Forgotten LandMeta Knight and King DeDeDe HAVE the ability to push through narrative as bosses or active NPCs
>>561044190Marx is a thirty year old man
same
>>561058380different
You're a Kirb now, you're a Squish nowhttps://youtu.be/u7cShFtrKkk
>>561041284what do you recon pep drinks even taste like anyway?
>>561081175Lipovitan.
>>561081175seems like an energy drink, there is soda in a few games so it probably isn't that.Speaking of health pick ups, ever notice in amazing mirror the only natural food pick ups are cherry's, maximum tomato's and pep drinks but if you defeat enemy's other food appears? it's very strange.
>>561028952Everyday I hope and pray that Gooey comes back so you bandana retards shut up forever.
>tfw you realize the real reason why the ancients sealed void was not due to fear of magic but because of meteon and neichel's song that told of the star (also dealing with elifis for decades)
>>561096273Yes. Yes I would.
>nobody has made a mistilenn tree-de-de mod yet
Seems the regular Kirby Train line's coming back after the Hankyu collab ended https://youtu.be/-FbUmd55zX8
>>561102123what where
>>561102196March 27th through April 23rd, there'll be online sales, and it'll also be available at Character Street in Tokyo Station and the Pupupu Market locations. Video goes over it starting at 2:27, turn on captions for a simple English translation
>>561102509oh i didn't know there were captions thank
quick post specific rooms that look like this

>>561088654Hey man Gooey was also a Designated Player 2 as well. You don't want to be that as it means you're not a character. You're pretty much the same as all the HELPER options you could give a player 2 in SuperStar if only because having them CPU was best used as decoys or meat shields because of just how passive they were.
they are not like the brothers who get all the fame.

What were they thinking calling it Master Sword

I wonder why they chose to put part of sectonia soul's song specifically into radiant theia, like putting in galacia's theme makes sense lore wise along with dreamland 1's credits and void's due to the heart connection but that one doesn't make much sense.

Do you think 2027 is gonna be our year?
>>5615276742027 is going to be Zelda's year because they keep having anniversaries gloop over to the next year, like Mario's 40th for this year. That's gonna be the series all the momentum is behind, I'm afraid.
>>561527674lol no.>>561527846That's a safe bet, after the Mario movie comes and goes they will jump onto the zelda wagonit's not impossible for a small eshop game but I don't think that's in the cards.
>>561527846Seems more likely we’ll get some zelda port or remaster later this year and then kirby stuff in spring 2027. That’s what happened last time. Hal doesn’t handle anniversary stuff the same way as nintendo. Also, mario’s 35th glooped over a bit into 2021 and that year still wasn’t mostly comprised of Mario snniversary stuff.
>>561528731Pretty sure after the mario movie, they’re gonna announce a new 3d mario and maybe a small zelda rerelease
>>561527846KIbros, we can still win
>>561529847I mean, genuinely, what could zelda even put out next year and why would it stop kirby when it’s never stopped him before
what's he saying?
>>561530583>Hello Kirby, how are you on this wonderful day? It's very nice to see you again.
>>561529143bananza was worked on by the Mario team so I wouldn't count on that not to mention that yoshi game is still on the card.As for Zelda, they have been posting alot of Zelda stuff on the Nintendo app as of late, though chances are it'll be small stuff like twilight princess for NSO, Hell splatoon raiders still doesn't have a date yet.
>>561530926By only half of the odyssey team for 8 years, I think there’s a large chance they have had a 3d mario in development for sometime now. It wouldn’t really make sense not to have a 3d mario game within the first two years of the switch 2’s life
>>561529058>kirby is about toSo that's what his o-face looks like
>>561531107It's not impossible, but with the wonder switch 2 edition, the Lego, the movie, galaxy ports and the heavy advertisement for the older titles for the 40th it just doesn't feel like that's the direction they are taking but who knows, Nintendo has been doing weird shit lately.
>>561531662weird
>>561530583either something totally innocent or something vile.
>>561417529Knowing how basically all gringo VAs and localizers are an unionized mafia Marx would be a male Lisa Simpson in the American Dub and Marx in the Jap Dub.
Elflis is a moose and you can't tell me otherwise.
>>560831790This is a deranged conversation, nobody cares about Ribbon's pants. There's nothing actually "problematic" about her design that is keeping her from any game, that's a fake problem invented to try and figure out why she was snubbed. And as for Adeleine, she has a pretty long dress so you could easily render/animate her to her covered anyway. It's not an issue to any serious person.
Why hasn't Hal shown what they're working on yet? It's been four years since the last Kirby game.
>>561554338Next year, don’t worry
>>561535227If anything, its the opposite for me, all the galaxy pushing makes me think they’re gonna do a galaxy 3
>>561553917yeah, that's kind of my point. her design isn't an issue because it's been kept nearly unaltered for every subsequent appearance she's made.it could not be more obvious that the reason she doesn't appear is because sakurai is a big fat washed-up twit who recoils at the thought of kirby getting fairy cooties. (exaggerated, but you get the point.)

>Star Fox cameo>If theories are true, lead-up to the Smash Bros cinematic universe>This necessitates several other franchises needing to get movies, Kirby included>>We're going to get RBAY 2.0SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT.
>>561619734it needs to have a fear rating or it's objectively bad.
>>561619734>>We're going to get RBAY 2.0Wonder if they'd get any of the old dub VAs for it as cameos at least. Fun fact about the Mario movie's Latin American dub, all of the brothers' family in that dub is made up of former Mario VAs for stuff like the cartoons, with his dad being LatAm Mario from the Super Show and the dubbing director for it if memory serves. Makes me genuinely find it a bit of a shame the US casting focuses so much on featuring celebs over specialized VAs
>>561597370Careful, you might jynx that into existence on Kirby day to be true.>>561628356Interesting, I should watch more of the Mario dubs.

>>561583130Teaser for a new Hal game (if they don't do it this year)if not that, Kirby Robobot or 64 remake.
>>561630054Exclusively because they're autistic. Same reason you see people Capitalize Every Word Like This or refer to characters by their full name every time they mention them. Their brain is broken.
>>561630054>>561630209Isn't it also autistic to care that much about people using "Ribbon Fairy" this much. It's just her species.

Sounds like 3d mario is 2027 according to nate the hate, so I wonder what that means for 3d kirby, like whether hal will push it back another year or if it’s gonna be a mkw/air riders situation where they both release in the same year
>>561668460I’m also not sure if he mentioned anything about the robobot remaster rumor he started
>>561683056real
Wonder if Mouthfuls will stay a staple for 3D Kirby going forward or if they were exclusively a Forgotten Land thing, they seem like a reasonable way to adapt a few of the more gimmicky abilities into 3D with sections dedicated to them (i.e. Carmouth being Wheel, Forklift/Spring being Hi-Jump)
new air riders event coming for easter and u can get a painted egg hat!!!!!!!!!
>>561631838It's just a bit weird. Like always calling Kirby "Kirby Puffball" or Adeleine "Adeleine Human". That's not what their names are.
>Air Riders /v/addock>actually filled upDamn, on a Friday evening no less, maybe I'll set up one for the thread tomorrow myself

where did the starman posters go
>>561756276They died out when air riders hype died out
>https://archive.org/details/glimpsesunfamil05heargoog/page/n20>Roku Jizo — "The Six Jizo" — these images are called in the speech of the people; and such groups may be seen in many a Japanese cemetery. They are representations of the most beautiful and tender figure in Japanese popular faith, that charming divinity who cares for the souls of little children, and consoles them in the place of unrest, and saves them from the demons. "But why are those little stones piled about the statues?" I ask.>Well, it is because some say the child-ghosts must build little towers of stones for penance in the Sai-no-Kawara, which is the place to which all children after death must go. And the Oni, who are demons, come to throw down the little stone-piles as fast as the children build; and these demons frighten the children, and torment them. But the little souls run to Jizo, who hides them in his great sleeves, and comforts them, and makes the demons go away. And every stone one lays upon the knees or at the feet of Jizo, with a prayer from the heart, helps some child-soul in the Sai-no-Kawara to perform its long penance.>"All little children," says the young Buddhist student who tells all this, with a smile as gentle as Jizo's own, "must go to the Sai-no-Kawara when they die. And there they play with Jizo. The Sai-no-Kawara is beneath us, below the ground.>"And Jizo has long sleeves to his robe; and they pull him by the sleeves in their play; and they pile up little stones before him to amuse themselves. And those stones you see heaped about the statues are put there by people for the sake of the little ones, most often by mothers of dead children who pray to Jizo. But grown people do not go to the Sai-no-Kawara when they die."
>>561756276Starman posters were NEVER organic, kek. They were always going to vanish once Air Riders finally dropped and petered out - don't tell me... no... there's no way you tards genuinely fell for that? It was the biggest case of an artificial meme fanbase.
>>561756276dropped in favour of rick posting
>>561783524>>561756276>>561764085>>561786619Those posers probably didn't even know who he was until the first direct. Real Starman fans like me liked the character before Air Riders was even revealed.

So damn glad they made an expansion for FL still, really excited for the next game even if I know Elfilis won't be relevant again for a couple decades.

Do you think Star Crossed World will get a proper physical soundtrack or they’ll make it a Nintendo Music exclusive I really don’t want the music to be locked behind Nintendo Music because I want the physical thing + having a physical soundtrack for the main game only but not SCW makes the physical soundtrack feel more incomplete…
>>561851508hard to say, pretty sure splatoon 2 got a CD for it's DLC after awhile but who knows?
>>561852681There’s still the matter of RTDL DX and if they want to release that soundtrack too, but it’s been ages
>forgotten land turned four this weekWhat the fuck, those were the fastest four years ever.
>>561866857Which also means that Kirby’s 35th anniversary is next year, prime time for a new game and another music fest!

wow starman on IMAX
>We’ve been caught, quick let’s spam Starman pics to pretend like we aren’t totally inorganic None are convinced!
>>561898854We have lots of autists here, but people like you take the cake
>>561851508>Do you think Star Crossed World will get a proper physical soundtrack or they’ll make it a Nintendo Music exclusiveIt'll likely get a physical before it's added to Music, CDs still have a very strong presence in Japan after all. Seeing as they do CDs for the Cafe tracks, they definitely know people (at least in their home country) do value having the soundtracks physical. I think the wait is more of a consequence of just how offset OST releases tend to be from the actual game launches more often than not. FL itself was a March 2022 game, and the OST didn't come out until Winter 2024. I can only assume the gaps come from actually producing the CDs, i.e. mastering the tracks in higher quality since even nowadays stuff is compressed for games, making the disc and case design/s if it's a multi-disc release, getting the licensing figured out since music licensing is different from in-game audio licensing iirc, doing additional content for the booklets, etc. It takes time but it'll happen eventually.
>>561917978>actually producing the CDsI mean duh, a lot of people seem to overlook the effort that goes into producing each CD soundtrack, look at these blog posts from HAL about how much effort and care went into producing the Forgotten Land soundtrack (and most people don’t talk about these blog posts)https://www.hallab.co.jp/blog/detail/5290/https://www.hallab.co.jp/blog/detail/5301/
>>561909598Because I’m so intelligent? Thank you.
>>561921091>I mean duh, a lot of people seem to overlook the effort that goes into producing each CD soundtrackPrecisely why I went into it, very forgotten process by most, and HAL does definitely seem to enjoy making the original prints for their OSTs have some additional trinkets like that picture frame or the artwork prints for Star Allies' first print. I'll forever bemoan the fact CDs almost completely died over here, at least there's import services to grab them off Japan...
it is happening again
Paddock in an hour from now?
>>561924136I really appreciate the work that went into the soundtracks and I’m lucky to own both the complete soundtrack and sound selection….. But why did they have to pull that only available through specific retailer bs?Both of these I ended up buying from (separate!) Kirby Cafe visits during my Japan trips and the usual online retailers aren’t selling these or are sold out, makes me really scared for future soundtrack releases and whether or not I can get my hands on those
Hard to believe that Kirby’s 35th anni is already next year

>>561924801>Both of these I ended up buying from (separate!) Kirby Cafe visits during my Japan trips and the usual online retailers aren’t selling these or are sold out, makes me really scared for future soundtrack releases and whether or not I can get my hands on thoseReleases in Japan are always wackier than you'd expect from my time there. Mainly managed to get the Complete Soundtrack through a lucky preorder through Value Mall's site that arrived a week before my flight home. I imagine the "specific retailers" thing might be due to Value Mall helping with distribution since they're usually the first spot Kirby OSTs are sold online (like the listing they have for Cafe Vol. 3 atm). Eventually it becomes more spread out (got my copy of Star Allies' at a Kotobukiya for like 6.6K yen), so it's also a matter of patience. At this point I genuinely just chose to subscribe to Japanese Kirby news channels on Youtube (i.e. >>561102123 ) to find out if there's anything worth going through the hassle of proxies for coming out. I reiterate, really hate the fact streaming killed CDs over here...
84 years old this year.
>>561930587Plus, I really hate the fact that the Nintendo Music release of the Forgotten Land soundtrack erases nearly all of the details the HAL and Kumazaki blog posts talk about; from the meticulous level of detail that went into the product design to the CD-mastering to the fact that the music is meant to be listened to while reading the liner notes of each track, to the fact that the intended experience for the soundtrack includes looking at, touching and appreciating the design of the physical soundtrack itself …The Nintendo Music release gets rid of almost all of that and it even has all the same music anyway, even the exclusive Japanese version of Welcome to the New World meant as a bonus track for the full soundtrack At least WiKirby has archived and translated all the liner notes for all the tracks, but still

>>561955198weren't those based on Japanese candies/chocolates?

Although I'm listening to it on my old tablet's speaker so the /mu/ tier autism probably doesn't apply as it's not good enough for that type of stuff.Of course I'm a MP3 fag for my lil MP3 player which I use over streaming when on the go
>>561986632
>>562000885Gone. Why stay in a franchise that clearly disrespects you and your favorite character? Air Riders has proven there is no hope for us.
>>562015298Eh, trying too hard, the "clearly disrespects you" feels a bit tacked on, you could leave it at "your favorite character" to imply the contempt in your bait being aimed at someone without saying the subject outright. "There is no hope for us" is definitely more creative than "killed the series" so you get a point for that. 5/8 see me after class
>>562010050NTA but talking as a layman, I always notice stuff like wind instruments tends to get scuffed in the OGG versions of tracks used for a lot of games even nowadays due to compression (audio can balloon real fast in size the cleaner it gets, which might not be bad for single tracks, but for complete soundtracks it adds up, there's a reason the OSTs have 30 or so tracks per disc at least in terms of Star Allies and Forgotten Land), the CD versions usually have much cleaner winds by comparison, you notice it a lot with flutes, at least in my experience.
>>561932050>Plus, I really hate the fact that the Nintendo Music release of the Forgotten Land soundtrack erases nearly all of the details the HAL and Kumazaki blog posts talk about; from the meticulous level of detail that went into the product design to the CD-mastering to the fact that the music is meant to be listened to while reading the liner notes of each track, to the fact that the intended experience for the soundtrack includes looking at, touching and appreciating the design of the physical soundtrack itselfThe consequences of streaming are a bit tragic, but most people seem to look at the death of a lot of the stuff unique to physical the same way the death of manuals is looked upon. I'm glad Music includes the Japanese version of New World, but my first time listening to the Music version in full it threw me off since the setpiece tracks like the "(Forgo Leon)" version of Raging Lion Roars are just kind of... Odd, without the context the Liner Notes provide. It's like hearing bits and pieces of a CD Drama without the context of it being a Drama in the first place. OST releases are genuinely an underappreciated craft, and it's why I actively try buying a lot of them when given the chance. It's nice that vinyl seems to be somewhat reviving that in the West even if it's still niche, I just really wish CD releases would become the norm here again as well...
bought to drink beer and play kirby games
is air riders still alive? i've watched some footage and it seems like it carries the spirit of f-zero
>>562033404i still play but paddocks are way less full than before
>>562033404 yeah i wouldn't say it's very f-zero though
>>561939019Maybe
banpu
japanese humor
>>562034794maaaaan i hope it makes a comeback somehowi missed out hardmaybe when it goes on sale...>>562035797how so? i mean aside from the aesthetics and city trial obviously, it seems like a pure fast racing game with some very light combat elements
>>562031257hell yeah bruuuther
>>562000885Waddle Dee, why are you okay with Kirby murdering your race every day?
>>562053734Who says it's murder?
>>562053791Doesn't Kirby eat them, spit them out, and make them disappear in one fell swoop?
>>562053953>make them disappear in one fell swoop?lies and slander, he just pocket dimension-s them
>>562047678fuckin' idiot can't even do pyschic powers right
psstyou guys wanna do a funny collab for April the 1st?
Hello?
no more kirby
>>562087145deserved
>>562068225Maybe, but it feels a little late for that (as if that's stopped us before).More OC's always good, though.
>>562068225>>562089957I'll be completely honest, I... completely forgot about April fools. Last few weeks have been hectic, but I could try and make an (inevitably late) background for it. I swear I spitballed some ideas a few weeks ago but I completely forget what they were... Anyone got any suggestions?
>>562096968Menace
>>562097494I would go for a jape low effort background, maybe the theme could be ghost trap or something.
>>562106838AVALANCHE, that was the idea yeah! I'll try and see what I can do, a bit strapped for time as of late but still do want to make a new collab
>kirby cameos in the mario moviehuh
>>562119572no way
>>562122547
>>562122547yeah i lied to bump the thread
>>562123314fuck you i'm glad ur wife is dead
>>562068225Sure
>>562119572Would probably be one of the easier cameos to justify if it was real honestly, just Warp Star Ex Machina it

KIRBY'S SILLY SHUFFLE HAS BEEN FOUNDhttps://wikirby.com/wiki/Kirby%27s_Silly_Shuffle
>>562141106Not as funny as this article:https://wikirby.com/wiki/WiKirby:April_Fools/2024/History_of_Economics_in_the_Dream_Kingdom
>>562140226Them, of course
>>562140226Galatic Nova
>>562140226Shadow Kirby
>>562143089>Sakurai: NOPE TROO FAR, STOP HAVING FUN.
>>562140226Is this even a question
The Kirby twitter account is totally silent for April Fools :(
>>562141106But why is the Shuffle Silly?
>>562153271it kirby
>>562153271Why not?
>>562114101...Any ideas on making it feel like an Avalanche collab specifically rather than just an Adventure collab? Seeing as the backgrounds are very unsubtly inspired by the latter.
>>562123314fuck you again
>>562141106Could this mysterious character be somehow related to Adeleine and/or Ado?
>>562168764What if Adeleine is Ado’s daughter with Kirby?
>>562168764 THERE'S ANOTHER ONE?
No official Kirby April Fool this year, just this :(
>>562153067The 7 Chaos Dededes
>>562159602I'd just do the avalanche tree line or go really meta and use the lean bean machine one.
>>562174336What happens if you collect them all
oh boy its april fools day
new air riders event starts tonight yay!
You know with all of the controversial discussion around characters like bandana dee and Adeleine, I’m surprised nobody ever mentions how much of a terrible character schmirbo is and how toxic his fans are.
>>562210792For me, his worst moment was him forcing dedede to eat a worm to get in a robobus with him and then not letting him on the bus in planet robobot 2
>>562168764Welcome to the artist sisters, Addie.
>>562216593>Ado Adeleine and Addie reunite.
>>562218670>ad, add, and addythey're going to complete the biggest art commission of their lives
>>562218670Who the fuck is Addie
>>562221158>>562221158>>562141106>>562168764
>>562210792>>562211263I was never a big fan of him or his iconic three nubs
Kirby if he adult
>>562221158some fucking apparition idk
>>562221158Shimomura was on a limit and could only create 1 more loli before creating Ado, so the loophole is constantly cloning Adeleine-kind so it would fit that limitation.
>>562233565>The whole human race in Kirby is just clones of Ado.
>>562234137>also a samus
Walk me home Kirb!
>>562225778terrifiying
kirby passover
>>562261969Why is Dedede so nigga
he black
Probably stupid question but what stops them from putting concert and cafe music on the nintendo music app
>>562270253For concerts, it might have to do with royalties. Nintendo/HAL might own the music, but the orchestra would have rights to their performance. That's generally how they make their money.
>>562270253Most likely due to how music streaming laws and musician stuff being messy, that's why air ride's original tracks are not on the music app, plus CD's are still popular in japan.>>562270872That as well, basically everyone gets a cut of the CD sales but with streaming it's a bit of a cluster-fuck.
>>562262148>>562265832Mob characters sometimes get drawn with big lips in old manga. That's probably what Dedede's face is based on.
>>562274790Usually they're designed to resemble animals since they are unimportant background characters, so maybe Dedede's lips are meant to make him look fishlike, kind of like Kine.
>>562274790 i'm probably being too woke right now, but manga learned that from american comics doing blackface it's probably not consciously the same intent
>>562271256WHY IS HE SO BALD?
>>562271296I also suspect Nintendo with the Air Ride's tracks they're gonna hold them back until they can just drop them as Air Ride's update instead of having them dupe as it's not like they remixed those tracks right?
>>562278381Dedede's helper counterpart, Bonkers, follows the design philosophy of characters resembling animals since he's humanoid but apelike, so it likely also applies to Dedede and Kine's big lips.
>>562271430Attack Up patches are also way easier to come by...and that makes it easier to kill other players and take their attack up patches.
>>562281225>gameplay loop is a feedback loopbravo sakurai
oh my god! I just saw a DDD on a Shadow Star 1 shot a Marx on a Hydra.
>>562279638they legally can't because of the anime.
>>562284295Cute fluffy ribbon

>>562289194Don't be mean

>>562282609Wait the GCN soundtrack was the ANIME soundtrack? Kinda blowing my mind
>>562330478Most of it, yes.
>>562330478Yeah but only in the Japanese version, 4kids changed it (most likely for the same reason)
>>562332913You would be correct. When companies license anime, they have to also license the music separately and a lot of them at that time didn't want to pay the extra dosh so they made their own soundtracks. Without blackjack nor hookers.
>>562333214>spoilerdamn
>>562353825what game was leafy in
im a fucking ricker
>>562271430>another marx Wi never stop winning
>>562358547rtdl, triple deluxe and robobot.
was the three nub green kirby supposed to be a gimmick reference
>>562360847HAL probably doesn't do anything with Adeleine because they don't want her hanging out with Kirby without Dedede also being present, and they have to make it obvious that she likes Dedede when she is with Kirby.
>>562363109 Nobody brought Adeleine's absence up this time. Are you trying to start a flamewar, or something? This situation is already bad for her.
>>562363109I don't think anyone really cares about that weird Dedede ship outside of the comics it appears in. I very much doubt it would ever be referenced in game.
>>562365403That's just my observation about Adeleine's existence within the franchise. Her character is practically intertwined with shipping so you can't really talk about her without people shitposting.>>562365478Her relationship with Dedede is explored outside of the games since he's more recurring in them, whereas you play as Kirby in the games and see Dedede maybe once unless he's also in your party. It's harder to fit her within the story because of her established connection with Dedede, and HAL's tendency to focus on developing new boss characters.

the new event in air riders is so fun and cool ^_^
:D
>>562395516How unfunny. WiKirby will never top the List of Certainties April Fools because of how hard it BTFO secondary fags.
look at him go
>>562392876No it doesn't
>>562429219this rules
Rickposters are inorganic (just like Starmanposters) and cared nothing for him prior to him being meta in Riders. Cease the act.
>>562434371I'm partial to Pitch myself
Anti-Air Riders posters (who am I kidding it's probably only one guy) are more inorganic than any Rickposter or Starmanposter will ever be.
>>562435173>I'm partial to Pitch myselfalright, tell me what you got
>>562434371>Rickposters are inorganic (just like Starmanposters) and cared nothing for him prior to him being meta in Riders. Cease the act.I'm way more inclined to believe Rick had a lot of fans before Air Riders than Starman.
>>562436231As in why I prefer him? I think his combos in DL3 are actually pretty fun to just play around with, specially stuff like the RC Plane mode with Lightning, or something like using Parasol as a golf club. Something about his design is also just... very amusing to me, probably the face. He's fun and I do wish he'd come back more often, but I do get why it's the DL2 trio that gets the spotlight more often than not. I'd post that "we simply don't know" edit if I had it on hand
>>562392876It also had a Kazoo
>>562392876Imagine the layers of WFT/WHAT/WHY Susie would have upon seeing such a retarded piece of tech.
>>562439449i was making a joke about you pitching yourselfbut i do get it, he has a fun design
rick and starmanorty
>>562365478>I very much doubt it would ever be referenced in game.Technically the ship is canon since HAL themselves put forth her nickname for Dedede in the 64 manga and the DL3 guidebook, so the background of her being Dedede's friend who calls him her husband guided their presentation of her in the games.
>riders event>at farm with barely acceptable internetFuck, at least it lasts until the 6th
Found this neat video and gonna shill it https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=fRvk8WlQYyY
>>562457825man
>>562461612If he strikes Gooey, he dies.
How would you do a Kirby movie, personally?
>>562474561This might sound odd but I think the dog man movie could be a good base to go off of
>>562473241Oh N-
>>562474561>>562474561id have an original character act as the deuteragonist, someone closely tied to the plot but acts as the voice of the movie like Tiff. they befriend kirby and go on adventures through surreal worlds.and of course have a tragic twist in the third act, just go full "night on the galactic railroad" with it
>>562477868I can't believe Gooey's fucking dead
>>562474561I'd give Meta Knight a spin-off and give his gang more prominence.
>>562474561make it like a don bleuth movie with some fucked up scary shit that scares little kids.
>>562474561Winnie the pooh way of narration / narrative crossed with fight scenes that look like they’re out of the Matrix.
>>562474561Hire quentin tarantino as the director, sit him on a 27 hour long video that's about the whole Kirby lore in a nutshell, have him beat Super Star Ultra and send him on his way. Samuel L Jackson will be DDD but aside from that I have hope on the guy.
>>562488381cuuuute
>>562365478yeah. even if it has official backing in hal's proposed pet name for dedede, it feels more like people are interested in meta and ddd being a couple, with the occasional ado-bandee shipper milling about.>>562440059all the animal friends are good in my book, honestly. they feel a lot more like true friends to kirby than the redemptions to high-ranking lackeys they keep giving out...>>562474561resurrect eiji tsubaraya to do the special effects.
>>562492114you just want dedede feet pics.
So, no Avalanche collab?
Maybe we can end this one faster to get a bunny Susie OP in season time.
Poyo

>>562585821That's not how he works...
Random fact: Did you know that Cookie Country is NOT part of Dream Land?
>>562617742I mean flowers stink goodAlso today is egg day (and also Magolor Day) Post Magolors
magolor day
I'm almost ashamed of myself. I reached rainbow rank in city trials before I've ever hopped into a legendary machine.
>>562629737So...why Kirby went full Venezuelan dictator on Haltmann's factories and shops that were boosting Pop Star's economy, technology, hausing and basically ending unemployement but when the backstabbing space hyperjew decided to turn apples into a fiat currency that only he used in his shops while also holding Wispy at gunpoint so that there could not be another source of apples, Kirby didn't do nothing?
>>562637938He straight up murdered Magolor's ass. It didn't stick
>>562637938Nobody takes Magolor seriously enough to actually pay in Gem Apples, Kirby is just an idiot that gets taken advantage of. The Star Coin issue is another matter because it implies the Dees have been tainted by capitalism, which is concerning.
>>562639183>it implies the Dees have been tainted by capitalism, which is concerning.Said the Clown tried to take over the world with communism.
MAGOLOR DAY
>>562636859Dude, no, you're supposed to post the Dragoon/Hydra/etc and say "You didn't win at City Trial"
>>562637938>ending unemployementThat's why, imagine living in NEET planet and then some aliens come and say you have to be a wagie now.
>>562645595Wasn't that what MetaKnight's revenge was all about?
>>562642745he deserves worse
caught him yapping.
>>562646647Now you understand why Susie had to ride that metanerd. Well that and the power move of taking their best warrior and turning him into a bed warmer.
>>562645595Pop Star population always seem to flip flop between lazy goobers and violent maniacs. Take that latest adventure. Nova gave them cars, but he never told them to make death races, run over pedestrians for sport or treat non car owners as sub humans.
it is my plan to drink beer and play kirby air riders
>>562668591Even in the day of the lord?
>>562671274yup
>>562668591the interesting thing about air riders is that you cannot play beerio kart with it since the stars are self driving.
>>562677367they stop if you hold the button down genius
im going so fast bros
>>562639183What about miles?
>>562685182What about him?
>>562685182Gameplay shit that isn’t canon
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i7PqSFw5C7E
>>562693027why
>>562677769Yeah, but with beerio cart you have to put the controller down to drink so it doesn't work with self-driving.
>>562683667Tell me about this Australian. Why does he ride the Bulk Star?
Has anyone actually been able to sing along with the lyrics to NEICHEL’s Last Song? It’s really difficult when there are no vocals lol
>>562709670there has been attempts on youtube with mixed results.
>>562712171It’s the “kimi no moto tobikonda amai kajitsu no pai mo aru ka na Sweet Memory” parts that really get me, my English-wired brain keeps failing at the really fast bridges in the song + however the “Sweet Memory” and “Dreamy Memory” lyrics were envisioned to sound by JP speakers lmao
>>562713035it's a translation of a fake language into a real language into a different language which has different sentence structure so it's not that shocking that it's kind of a mess.it's a miracle underneath the big green tree has good lyrics (despite the...unfortunate engrish singing)
>>562685182You called?
>>562713786Since Last Song doesn’t have vocals of any kind, the JP lyrics should be the intended ones for the song

Oh yeah, there's Dream Land 1 and Amazing Mirror icons on NSO again in case you missed them the first time through, I think Amazing Mirror has a few new ones like Master Hand and the Dimension Mirror

>>562713035I know Kirby translation is historically unbalanced but idk how one sings "There'll be so much apple pie that we just can't eat it all, what a sweet... dreamy memory" and sound normal
