A Kirby Air Ride successor?
Kirby Air Ride was one of the best and most unique Gamecube games. A sequel to do the original justice would be a big deal.
Sadly, Nintendo has made a reputation for itself as a copyright troll, most notoriously their legal takedowns of YouTube lets plays. As a result, I have boycotted Nintendo for over ten years now. While the new releases are tempting, Nintendo's recent legal actions against Palworld sour that proposition. Although I admittedly only can have so much respect for a Windows-only game with anti-cheat.
- codybontecou 2y agoThe original battle royale. My friend was addicted to this game as kids but I never enjoyed it because he always stomped me.
- gradientsrneat 2y agoBack in the day, we'd play city trial in sandbox mode and drive all the vehicles we unlocked up on top of the floating platform. The achievement system was also great.
- syndeo 2y agoSame, such fun memories. Those were some good times.
- GlumWoodpecker 2y ago>Windows-only game Huh? Palworld is available on Windows, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, and macOS.
- gradientsrneat 2y agoSorry, I meant in the context of desktop operating systems. Steam page says only Windows is supported. Not sure why Wikipedia says MacOS.
- piyuv 2y agoIt’s in the Mac App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/palworld/id6503918400?mt=12 https://apps.apple.com/us/app/palworld/id6503918400?mt=12
- gradientsrneat 2y agoHuh, TIL
- piyuv 2y agoI don’t dare boycott gaming companies because then I’d be stuck with indie games on itch.io. While they aren’t always bad, they’re not my cup of tea. All 3 major gaming companies are horrible in their own ways. Just like both major smartphone platforms. The times we live in…
- gradientsrneat 2y agoWhich three major gaming companies are you referring to? The ones that make walled garden consoles? At the end of the day, I boycott not just from an ethical standpoint, but from the perspective of a customer. Nintendo is a first-party game publisher. They are uniquely litigious toward their own customers and community, and they don't innovate. Money toward Nintendo directly encourages that. Any sufficiently large company does lots of unethical things, so boycotting the entire company is harder and sends a less clear message economically. But YMMV.
