Love it, I won’t get it though because I spent most of my points on the wonderful icons. I hope Rex Wheelie is part of one of the other waves or that other character I won’t name right now because it's a spoiler, I'm currently using the Shadow Star.
@Joeynator3000 when the demo was active I discovered you could use the Paddock to play with CPUs only, the experience was far better for me. Don't get me wrong I did get some enjoyment from playing with others but the CPU only experience made it a breeze.
I did have to wait a bit for City Trial, great thing the Test Ride is getting some fixes, can't wait to play more of the demo & then the full game for Road Trip & all that. I want to collect the gummies & dress up a character so bad now.
I'm buying Kirby Air Riders physical, while I may just buy Hyrule Warriors Age of Imprisonment much later because of the higher prices. Those are the two Switch 2 games I have an interest in.
I've played it years ago & couldn't beat the ghost baby, now I walloped him & I'm now stuck in the storage room not knowing what to do aside from touching the lever to get the wall to move.
I loved both directs & I can’t wait to dive into the global demo while waiting for the retail release. I just can't wait to mess around in every mode. I give the direct a 10/10 very jam packed with info & I'm definitely diving into Road Trip mode.
I am so looking forward to the second direct, of course I'll be watching it hours later on Nintendo Today to avoid spoilers in any comment section. I'm also kinda hoping for a demo as an appetizer in a way.
I don’t have the game so the soundtrack tease will have to do, so far my favorite tracks are Zebra Bananza, Ostrich Bananza, Canyon Layer & Battle Challenge.
Little annoyed the Yoshi drums versions of the tracks aren't there nor is the sped up version of Gobblegut.
My favorites are Yoshi Star Galaxy, World 3, Freezy Flake Galaxy, Bowser's Lava Lair, Space Storm Galaxy, Haunty Halls Galaxy, Bowser Jr.'s Firey Flotilla, World 6, Gobblegut, Speed Run, & Bowser's Galaxy Generator.
Guess I'll take a listen, too bad you can star only so many tracks before you have to make sacrifices. That helps to tell me what soundtracks I've listened to so far.
I can’t wait for some Switch 2 soundtracks, I love listening to Kirby Air Riders special release daily.
I'm not too familiar with Fire Emblem outside just Smash Bros.
Kirby and the Forgotten Land Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Star-Crossed World, I still have some Starries to save because some missions are difficult (I'm too lazy to resort to a guide unless I'm stumped 3 plus times), as trying (& failing multiple times) to beat the hardest version of Tilt 'n' Roll within the time limit while trying not to fall or boop a Gordo, also adding the hardest version of serving the Waddle Dees, still can't do either. I collected all the EX Gotcha via random pulls & the Waddle Dee who is a collector of them. Currently jamming to the new tracks via the Deedly Dee's stage corner.
I bought the upgrade pack as I had the Switch version, I got into the new stuff, fantastic. I do agree the mini bosses were repetitive & I wished we got more ability upgrades or just new ones entirely. Now I can’t wait for Air Riders.
All these updates & still no way to remove those ugly eyesore of a border. So are we done with adding retro SNES games Nintendo? So Gradius III & Street Fighter II Hyper Fighting don't exist? I know there's the arcade version of Gradius III both standalone & part of the Origins bundle but I'm waiting for the easier SNES version.
I'm greatly excited for it, I've spent hours as a child playing Air Ride. Now, years later, I can’t wait to jump into Air Riders, so that will be my first Switch 2 exclusive game I will buy because I'm not wasting 10 dollars extra for Mario Kart World. I'm dying to see if that mysterious rider hints at a story mode, that short snippet of music is so good.
Still waiting for any other Star Fox music that isn't 64, there's only so much I can listen to it. I bet we won't get any Switch 2 soundtracks until after the Switch 2 is on its last legs.
The only thing I'm interested in is the Kirby DLC, hoping for more GameCube games, even if it takes a year or two for Star Fox Assault or any of the four Mario Party games, my personal favorite being between 5 & 6.
@MirrorFate2 I will NEVER forgive Sega for it, Amy was fine but the rabid, very vocal haters forced Amy’s lobotomy, now it's just a girl in an Amy skin.
Couldn't get in last time & I managed to get selected this time, I was having an issue with the code, it was like no for the website but my Switch 2 took it. Now I gotta set up the dock sometime.
Yes, it takes a century just for 1 game to download that's why the I know the Switch 1 will explode trying to download a game from that catalogue. If I had the choice I'd just download the games I like. Still waiting for the Mario Party quadrilogy & both Star Fox games, I'll let Air Ride slide because we're getting the new one.
I have no platinum points, there needs to be more My Nintendo site side quests where you get points. Just 30 isn't enough, even game trials for Switch 2 would be cool.
@ShieldHero you gave me a good laugh. I definitely would want one, the jet black to go with my jet black GameCube that's been collecting dust for sometime.
Finally snagged that hybrid at Walmart, arriving by Friday. Just went with the console because Mario Kart World isn't hard to come across, unlike the Switch 2 itself.
Wait, this isn't Mario Kart World or Star Fox Assault. Is Nintendo playing darts blindfolded? Well I gotta finish listening to Tears of the Kingdom's soundtrack then move onto the StreetPass soundtracks anyway.
@Lynel_Richie Now, you wash your slanderous mouth out with soap, AI should NEVER replace actual voice talent. Then everyone will be out of a decent job.
I feel like it's a good thing I can't see Anti-Matter's comments, the Playstation isn't exactly kid friendly, it's mostly more T-M rated. The Switch 2 is so successful & I still have no luck in getting one.
And I still can't get one from a store, had to register interest to see if I get lucky, still waiting since like the 7th. Super happy for those who got one.
I missed out on one because I didn't pre-order, Best Buy, Target, & Walmart were wiped out. I did see a bunch of accessories & Switch 2 games at Best Buy but no consoles. I may attempt the My Nintendo Store for an invite. So much for the haters claiming the Switch 2 would fail, the wiping out screams otherwise.
If the Joy-Con 2 don't drift like the last gen Joy-Cons, I won't have a use for it, I usually charge them all in the dock, aside from my launch neon-blue neon-red Joy-Cons which drifted aggressively near 2019 which I have abandoned for the Splatoon 2 Joy-Cons where the neon-pink acts up on occasion.
Here's the thing, when Iwata was still alive Nintendo still snapped at their fans by nuking uploaded music, nuking SiIvaGunner (actually GiIvaSunner, my mistake I do confuse the usernames) multiple times & wiped mods/hacks.
@DragonBento I see mentions of Star Fox Assault, I squeal happily & heart. I third wanting a remaster or sequel to Assault, even having it as part of the GameCube Nintendo Classics in the future would make me happy.
And the same three Star Fox icons, you could've added Slippy & co. Or just the Wolfen based on the 64 design. All & all that's impressive, I may just stick to the customizable ones on the other app like I do on the Switch 1, fingers crossed for GameCube Nintendo Classics icons in the future.
