Oh no you don't!
What do you think will be the main collectible of the world beyond
why do these threads die so much
>>585832136Whatever these things are.
>>585837071I want to pinch his cheeks.
>>585837463I dunno, they seem more like the cards/key chains/puzzle pieces/gacha stuff.
Datamine when
>>585849320This account has started posting it, I think we are going to get the big stuff soon.https://x.com/DepthsOfWiKirby
>>585852916wonder if we will see any cut content...
do we sexualize kirby here
>>585857968Sure why not?
>>585857968the series or the character?
>>585858020hell yes.
still think it was a missed opportunity for riders to not have the fused hydragoon if you (somehow) manage to get all 6 pieces in a match, looks pretty sick in the cutscenes
>>585860318that'd probably would be busted as all hell.
>>585860586Given the carnage of City Trial, if you somehow manage to gather all 6 parts without getting killed you probably did earn it
>>585852916Air Riders soon hopefully
>>585861721Wonder how different the Nova model would look outside of its intended context, it uses lighting very deliberately in-game to the point I wonder if some of it is baked into his textures
legendary machines
>>585862476seems like most of nova is pre-rendered and not an actual model in game.
>>585863806>most of nova is pre-renderedHuh, kinda surprising given the camera angles you can get on the track, specially the rails leading up to him. Swore it was a model due to the way you can notice the LOD on his face the closer you get
>>585864445there's all sorts of technical trickery going on, a smart dev is like a magician who uses slight of hand to create illusions with perspective. (3D games do this quite a bit, hell forgotten land does it.)a game example of this would be dragon ball fighterZ, to get certain shots they use perspective warping to create more impactful strikes and poses but if you look at them with a developer camera from another point of view they look really goofy with bodies stretching and contorting in bizarre ways but a player would never see that.here's a video showing it off the kinds of trickery going on, warning: there maybe some spooky T-posing.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qImqr7QuHyU
it could also be a case where a baked in environment has model overlays that have LOD's, like in the case of something like Mario kart having crowd's that function the same, when they are out of view they don't need to animate/be rendered.quite a number of games use multiple parts with baked in models to create depth and details, in nova's case it'd be lights, machine detailing (wires, cogs, switches, etc) it wouldn't be a single model that would make up Nova as a race course and some of it would be 2D images.think of it like each section as a enclosed room/portal, each section would have it's own job to do to create the illusion, put it all together and you get the sight of going through a massive machine race course with lasers shooting nova with that planet, going inside and seeing all the twisting paths along the way to finally destroying the heart.game development on having to deal with all of that is tricky business.
Kitty!
>>585870130That's a lot of pussy
i'm so rickpilled im playing dl3 and im like hell naw to all these other fuckers
>>585872123
>>585873654You BETTER put some respect on Pitch's name you little shit
>>585882196Nah
i like how this person draws kirby
>>585887864stop staring at me with 'em big ole' eyes
>>585870130>didn't loaf on ado's bread shoes.
>>585890538
>>585893732it's one thing for meta knight to get his asshole remodeled, but to NTR his sword? that's just going too far man.
>>585893949He's flirting with her, the absolute manwhore!
https://x.com/JC_Players_/status/2115200121977913388Marx model
I wont need to buy a Switch 2 for new Kirb?
>>585902096you probably will need to friend.
>>585901156>the Air Riders playable model is another upscaled Star Allies modelYeah, that checks out. I'm willing to bet that Sakurai's book will confirm the rider Marx is fake.
>>585927253Literally me
>>585909149Half truth.His main body is a new model, the wings are from Star Allies, redone to be higher poly.
>>585927253Cute couple, dare I say one of the best in the series.
>>585936018memes in other languages feel mystical.
>>585936018i like this guy
>>585952029Meta Knight doesn't seem to like her very much
>>585963503It's okay, he can learn.
Suck up this torch!
meta kNIGht
https://x.com/pykoma/status/2115481164345647155 Susie’s got a new job
>>585974115This is porn isn't it.
>>585974115Wario calling anyone from pop star or it's neighboring worlds just to salvage some dingy robots (or straight up murder machines). i guess it's something for those lazy fucks to do.
>>585977897The real Nightmare in Dream Land? A job application.
>>585986565no wonder why waddle dees take up 90% of jobs like a fast food worker or postman, nobody else is gonna do them.
meta goy
just buttfucked leongar it wasnt rape it was mutual
the original sin vs judas.
>>585997375Someone had to sit there and record Dedede's naked body.There is a non-zero chance that one of the Waddle Dees has seen his dick.
>>585999350>I needa monsta condom for my...MAGNUM DOOOOONNNNGnot as cursed as the dedediapers advertisement.
>>585999350King dedede eating while drooling.
>>586003521what happens if you pull all the floaty hands away from the bodies since they have no arms? does the main body get pulled or can I steal all the hands?
Do you think the Air Riders Dark Mind remix was intended for a scrapped boss?
>>586017852probably not given zero's theme is there as well. (technically it's dark matter's from dreamland 3 but semantics)
There are fags who don't like the event
Hell yeah, Zan image for the thread!>>586023115It's fun, but also pretty broken with all the lag
Confirmation that it's a Forgo larva in there
>>586037583What happened to make him forgo?
>>586037971The Galactals appear to be his "Elfilin" but idk
i forgor
>>586037583You can already kinda see it in-game, though
i want eggs
>>586023115My first game lagged out, and it appears to always end in Gourmet Race which makes things pretty dull.Also while I like more items popping out when you get hit, losing basically everything from being tapped is pretty stupid. Basically makes getting a flying vehicle and avoiding everything the way to go.
>>586045184
Would Susie vibecode
>>586055036Depends if using real brains hooked up to star dream counts as vibe coding.
>>586050942i love to watch him suffer
i like kirby epic yarn
i heard that magolor spontaneously combusted today SAD!
>>586070423no that was that star wars fellow who played professor gravity in the justice league films.
>>586056357>haltmann soul: "please stop making me generate pictures of meta knight buying wonder bread">susie: "no"
>>586070423YAY!
fagolor
what the fuck is his problem
>>586094386Not enough Vitamin D
>>586023115>hey check out how hard I can shit out my patches
nude waddledeettes
>>586008618I like to believe they have invisible arms
awoofies must die
>>586105614Come on, surely 2 billion was enough, cut them some slack
>>586104460dang, it would've been funny to gather all the floaty hands and do this:
i'm playing air riders my waddle doo is black with horns its so demonic
i dare u to post a cooler mk image
i'm going to go to into get ready to go into bed
>>586107593
>>586109071lol pls be serious

cmon guys...
tempted to write up a short little greentext for HAL-loween...
I found a channel that goes over star allies soul melter Ex, it's pretty in-depth, if you like tier lists you'll like this channelhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=__WRstb4tmUand yeah, dream friends are all pretty high tier.
>https://x.com/nintendo_cs/status/2116077683927040147Halloween is cancelled
>>586120208I guess you'd call that a...trick
>>586120208OH NO NO NO NO NO NO NO SAKURAIKEKS HOW IS THIS HAPPENING
>>586124751>How the Ado Stole Halloween
but seriously though this is like what, the third time they fucked up on an event?
>>586124751Revenge of Adeleine!
I haven't been in the fandom for a hot minute and recently got back into kirby after doing a 100% playthrough of amazing mirror. Why does the fandom hate sakurai again?
>>586130078Second time
>>586135882Crystal Shard got a cameo in Air Riders before Ribbon.
rip halloween in skyah
booooooooo
donkey kirb
this box looks so fun
dragon ball super beerick
>>586130078sakurai dipped to work on god knows what and bamco are desperate to keep the blood pumping
whats for lunch
>>586120208>christmas>now halloweenNova's work is just not done
>>586169878The great work never finishes. There is always more to do.
>>586135882sakurai is bias for the era of Kirby only he worked on, also his story telling sucks compared to kumazaki's
IT'S TIME.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EtzBncpPhc8&list=RDEtzBncpPhc8&start_radio=1
>>586135882Anything that was bad about Kirby's presentation in Smash Ultimate is even worse in Air Riders. Sakurai keeps deteriorating Kirby's image every time he touches it, and in a remarkably Miyamoto-tier fashion.
>>586176487"the big three" really are out of touch old farts.
>>586175694jesus christ how horrifying
>>586177382>"the big three"Who's the third? Aonuma?
>>586177824yeah
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q-UsCpMt3sc
>>586180972disgusting...
no va
>>586174886>here's a book that lets you know what the fuck is going on in this kirby racing spinoff (nova's being a cunt again beat him up)these threads have talked on and off about FNAF and i don't care about director wars but this really feels like him pulling a scott (even though again, it's a spinoff and not having a massive plot is fine), and the FNAF books were already retarded and mostly nebulous to the games (until they randomly are connected), especially the anthology books.
>>586120208They say they’ll be holding this event again, do you think they’ll be soon, maybe that’s when hat Halloween collab could happen
>>586183915Sometimes, I wonder if the reason there’s some crossover is due to the rtdl era happening right around the time Fnaf was happening with both even ending in the same year and having hidden dark lore>2011: just rtdl>2014: triple deluxe, dedede’s drum dash deluxe, fighters deluxe, fnaf 1, fnaf 2>2015: rainbow curse, fnaf 3, fnaf 4>2016: planet robobot, fnaf world, sister location>2017: team kirby clash deluxe, blowout blast, kirby battle royale, ffps>2018: star allies, ucn
>>586186440i could see the game overlap but i think it is moreso just slight theme overlapping like the robobot/sister location pairing, though i'm not fully sure myself. don't know much about touhou but i guess kind of similar to how it and kirby also have fandom overlap too.
>>586189102I don’t know as much about touhou but it does look like the designs are kirby-esque and the there are some pretty tough bosses
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YhWgLDedy04>...>the day of the dead is upon us once more.>"dia de los muertos" as those from certain parts of the abandoned world would call it.>it is, or rather, was a time when those of the living would celebrate life through the remembrance of the dead.>Guided by spirits not unlike myself, with wings of orange and flowered paths letting those move on to the after life.>In a sense, such a practice is conflicting as those legends are remarkably like my cursed form.>Is such a thing an insult or should I find it flattering?>I suppose at this point it makes no difference.>Only their echoes seemingly remain, or perhaps they lay in wait beyond the gaze of my eye in impossibilities yet to come to pass.>pulling from the very fabric of reality twisting and perverting the natural world, even now I can sense a looming threat that has yet come to pass, alas, even death cannot see the future, anyone's guess is as good as mine.>I merely wait for the call, my time yet draws closer, like those vile clockworks, it ticks ever more, it won't be much longer now.>but for now I shall enjoy the respite, time for one as such as myself lost it's meaning my patience is limitless for when the spring breeze shall be called again.>...>perhaps I should celebrate that holiday, if only to pass the time, a self indulgence I know.>but I'll permit myself to enjoy it, if only to sate my boredom, so that the dead are not left forgotten...and to indulge in sugar, a guilty pleasure, to be sure, if nothing else being worshiped instead of feared for a day.el fin.
>>586177382>>586177824>>586178951What's wrong with Miyamoto and Aonuma? From what I can tell have have always done a stellar job.
>>586190656failing to understand the appeal and that games have evolved, their general attitudes regarding story and world building, granted they are (a bit) better then the likes of tanabe and western developers, I mean the galaxy movie basically was nothing but key jingling and miyamoto unironically defended it because god forbid we have any sadness or story in a bing bing wahoo film, even the first film had SOMETHING beyond references.to quote mass attack:>"darkness has it's place, for it makes the stars shine that much brighter"
>>586192245I dunno man Nintendo games are still genuinely fun to play compared to the rest of the hellscape that is the video game industry.Only indies hold a candle these days.
>>586193079I'm not saying Nintendo in general, just those three seem to have a shitty attitude and are for a lack of a better term, extremely autistic about specific things.
>>586135882Anything in the series he wasn't involved in outside of >Dreamland>Adventure/Nightmare in dreamland>Superstar>Air riders>Anime seriesis rarely acknowledged by him and or is poorly represented, so kirby fans have culminated a conspiracy theory that sakurai hates literally everything in the franchise he didn't make for some reason just because he prefers the stuff more familiar to him.
>>586196114it's not exactly a theory when his bias get shown time and time again even outside of smash.
is that new metroid ravenous a TAM-like?
>>586201279the hell is a TAM?
>>586202531The Amazing Mirror.
meta night
What's so meta about him anyway?
>>586204581
rick
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MVPIv_TR0CUI don't know whether to post this here or in /smbg/ so I'm going to post it here and link it there.Is it Super Mario Sunshine? Is it Super Smash Bros? Is it Kirby Air Ride?Who knows.
>>586202682sure, why not?
>>586210409smash run if it was good:
I'm gonna laugh so hard if the next smash is 3D like that.
why have so many people got it into their heads the next smash is gonna be 3D "like power stone"do these guys even like smash? have these people even played power stone??its just one of those blatant parroted comments that nobody seems to call out
>>586217537the smash 6 hype already died a few months ago>do these guys even like smash?They don't
>>586219420I have to agree all they care about is "who's gonna be in" they don't care about the game.
i wish meta knight was my slave
>>586220910that or they care about it too much and get unreasonably tilted or excited at a tournament. or they knock someone out with their body odor or do questionable things with kids/teens, take your pick.
>>586221007I wonder who could be behind this post.
>>586221818the amount of innocent gamecube controllers destroyed by smash fans at tournaments makes me weep.they need to bar of soap smash players if they don't start cleaning up both literally and figuratively their foul behaviors.
>>586221007Meta Knight makes for an amazing manservant. He was made for it.
>>586222419MAN SLAVE.
he needs to be buckbroken
Meta Knight who gets raped by Susie!
so is there some sort of ritual where they implant wings on the kirby species when they become a knight or what
>>586224157Well, void has wings so your guess is as good as anyone.
>>586224351i am owed an explanation. i demand one even
>>586225259this guy might have something to do with it, idk man.
it's interesting that forgo never tried to control Kirby but did for meta knight but failed, it's curious.
>>586228218Maybe he forgo to.
>>586228970or maybe he couldn't even attempt it so no forgo Kirby clone.
>>586214023smash run is already goodnow its better
>>586224157It's like insects. Some are born with wings and others aren't.
>>586229510they are no match for fairy milk.
>>586232994oh yeah it sucks.
>>586224157
>>586231025...nothing is born with wings, they're always developed later.
>>586239931ah the days where everyone thought he was Kirby from the future.only to be revealed he was from the distant past and FUCKING PISSED, which is far more interesting.
splatfest...simirror vs sir kibble vs bio spark...
>>586253021Of course, Simirror is on the left.
im looking at the man in the mirror
gday
>>586260036good day!
>>586196290I agree wholeheartedly but you can't really say that about Air Riders. Yeah it almost gives Super Star an on-screen BJ in Road Trip but they made sure to choose stuff from across the series to showcase
>>586267807Yes, but that's the thing; they only showcased things from around the series. A lot of Road Trip's cameos are completely out of context, using unpopular enemies like Pyribbit as allies for obstacles they have no context to help with. And even amongst the series cameo spread, there's marks of severe bias. Barely anything from Star Allies or Forgotten Land, yet the anime loving Mass Attack gets suspicious amounts of highlights...
i love kirby lol
Awfully spooky 'round here today innit?
Ripple's nipples...
i saw a ghost
>>586283908that was just your imagination.
>>586285149G-g-g-ghost!
EEEEK!!!
fighters 2 has ghost gooey and it's funny because he doesn't have hands he looks like he belongs in pac-man

i just hung out all day
>>586286030
>>586306547>when smiling last dance plays and green greens kicks in.that's when real men cry.
go away u gay evil things
why have they never made a kirby game where eveyrthings yarn
>>586267807They have the Crystal Shard appear to do something it does not actually do, and with no Ribbon
>>586318019It would be too much of a Yoshi rip off.
>>586318376you know what fuck yoshi and fuck his mysterious book i dont really give a fuck
...shit I forgot about the collab.Guess there goes my 3 year streak of doing a Halloween one every year.Fuck.
>>586324239YOU FUCKED UP REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE TEN BILLION YEARS ETERNAL CAPSULE.eh whatever, mang, air riders fucked up their event too so it's only fitting.
I founded a gud animation.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dlJ3gfvPSUE
>>586324239'scool.I'll just post the previous ones...is what I'd say, but I only have two Halloween collabs saved. Huh.
>>586327484Well, one of them was technically Fall-themed rather than Halloween
>>586327484You're missing the 2024 one, which wasn't actually finished until mid-December btw Elfilisanon you can totally still do the collab and no one will notice shhhh
>>586328056>>586328086O I C. I do have that then.
could meta knight solo the dark souls universe?
>>586269157>Mass Attack gets suspicious amounts of highlights...To be fair nobody really throws a bone Mass Attack's way. It is still a very unique Kirby game
>>586330591I personally think no he would get his bitch ass handed to him LOL!
>>586324239Maybe we can do a late one this year, the Halloween air riders event was canned and said to be done at a later date anyways
elfilis walks god show me the way bc the devil tryna bring be down

wow so just because im a mouse im also a rodent unbelievable

>>586345746no see, pikmin have A FUCKING leaf on their heads.
so...
>>586350743What's even the point of HAL keeping this vague?
>>586359609who knows?
>>586359609Ado "Adeline" Line uses two different identities for tax purposes, and HAL ain't snitches.
>>586359609because if they don't just go "they're the same person and if you thought otherwise you are fucking stupid and need to go back to school immediately" they can drag it out for as long as they can like all the other obvious lore bullshit they do
