My siblings and I have always loved Kirby. Ever seince his very own show came out we have been waiting for a new game to come out on GameCube. Kirby is in our opinion, the best Nintendo character ever created. Have you ever bought a game that just had to many controls and you really never liked it because of that? Well in this game the controls are just the A button and the anolog stick! And of corse, because Kirby just wouldn't be Kirby with out it, there are enemy sucking abilities! ( Has anyone realised that Kirby is named after a vacume cleaner and that Kirby likes to suck up things too?)
If you are a fan of Kirby, this is a must buy game!

Good And Bad But More Good

Kirby Air ride. This game is awesome!! But the only thing bad about it is there is only 1 place to be at in free mode. There should be 2 or maybe 4 to pick that place to go to it then just one. But, its still the best game I know of so if you like Kirby than get this game. Flying is hard unless you get the Purple Falcon it flies high in the sky. Or when you beat part of the game then play as the Dragon it's the best flying machine IN THE GAME!!

Fun!

If you have Gamecube, you'll love this game, it's up to four players, and it's really fun! It's great for kids too, because you only need to use 2 button on your controller, the joystick, and the "A" button, Buy it, it's great

no story mode

all kirby games have like a story mode but this one doesn't. there is a mode where you cruise around and solve really hard problems if you can. you could unlock all sorts of sweet vehicles and tracks. you could play free ride by yourself and with your friends. kirby air ride is up to 4 players. in multiplayer mode you can solve problems and stuff like in 1 player mode. kirby air ride is really fun to play and is up to 4 players.

Kirby Air Ride is Da Bom!

I always get this game for my friends birthday presents! Only if they have a gamecube. Even if they do not want it, as soon as they play, they love it! For the price this is an awesome game. I prefer Super Smash Brother Melee though. If you care about the price Kirby Air Ride is your kind of game! If you do not care about the price, go for Super Smash Brother Melee! They are da bom!

Kirby games are the best!

When I picked up Kirby Air Ride I said hmmmm.... I think I saw this ... but, what is it doing in Rhinos? I seen it in the Power Nintendo Magazine. When I got home and started playing I already started getting META KNIGHT! When I got White Kirby I thought that he looked cool and he did. I have 250 Checks on my Checklist and I have Green Kirby,Brown Kirby,and Purple Kirby! You can also get WHITE META KNIGHT!

Thats why Kirby Air Ride is a popular game. So please go ... and buy one today!

Kirby Air Ride is my favorite game and I totally recommend it! When you play you will encounter enemies of all kinds, instead of avoiding the enemies you use them to your advantage. You can use them to help you by sucking them up and absorbing their power depending on which one you swallow. The main vehichle is the Warp Star but you unlock more. The color of your player depends on if your P1, P2, P3 or P4. My favorite thing about this game is that it is very easy to get the hang of. In my opinion there is no down side to the game. Kirby Air Ride is a really really GREAT.

Kirby Air Ride ( The Best Yet )

This Game Rocks. But there are some things that you need to consider before buying this game! 1. It has a simple control plot but is it a little strange to put in only 1 button for the gameplay? I mean they could have put in the b button for attack at least! 2. This may have simple controls, but it is still challenging so this is not for 7/8 year olds. But for me this was a blast. I recommend this game and give it 5 Stars

I think this Kirby racing game will be great!

Well, Kirby has a racing game callled Air Ride. And, also its his first own Nintendo Game Cube game besides Super Smash Bros Melee. But, I wonder if King DeDeDe or Meta Knight or Whispy Woods will be some of the racers. I haven't heard about it, but I hope this will be great! KIRBY RULES!!![.]

The controls kill what could've been mediocre.

Let me just say of all the Nintendo franchises, Kirby has always been my favorite. Naturally last year when Nintendo announced that they had revived this game (it was on N64 but got canceled) I was very excited. So it was with that excitement I proceded to my local Blockbuster the week of it's release to see just what the geniuses at Hal Labs had in store for me this time. Words can not express the disapointment I felt the first time I raced. I'd heard this game was simple but this is downright retarded. Memo to Hal: there are six other buttons on the controller for the reason that unless you're playing a minigame in Mario Party one button can't function as everything. In this game the A button does everything. It brakes, sucks in enemies, uses their powers, and when over a boost pad initiates it. Let me explain how this simply can not work. While attempting to catch up to the Kirby in first I sucked in an enemy. Problem is A is also the brake so I slowed down and was relegated to third place. Now when I used my bombs I was forced to brake again thus putting me in fourth! Are you seeing the picture now? But wait there's some bad icing to go on the stale cake. This game has nine tracks. Whoever let this game ship thinking nine tracks was enough needs to be fired and hit. Many people will tout this games 360 unlockables as a selling point but honestly they do a horrible job extending this games already short lifespan. This is due to the fact most are utterly pointless such as the soundcheck (which at this point shouldn't have to be unlocked anyway). Other than the initial time getting use to the controls this game is also pretty easy. Once for fun I started a race and just set the controller down watched since Kirby accelerates automatically (which by the is another horrible idea). I finished second. Finally the multiplayer in this game isn't even very good which is bad for a game in a genre where the lifespan of the game pretty much depends on multiplayer. Overall, I will buy this game but only to own Kirby's first (and hopefully not last) Gamecube outing. However this will be when I can pick it up for fifteen dollars at most. I recommend anyone wanting this game to rent it and then should you still want it, wait like I'm doing.
