Looks like Nintendo really messed up by deciding to use only 1 button.

I thought Nintendo said all games they make will support Dolby Pro Logic II (and progessive scan)? IGN says in there review that it seems to not support DPLII, which is interesting.

But I wasn't expecting to get this anyways. Double Dash is only a month or so away. Also to note, this is Nintendo's first game to support LAN. Hopefully future games do better with LAN, mainly Double Dash (then PSOIII)

*goes back to playing F-Zero GX*

Hahaha.....sarcastic b****.

But yea, thats a very bad score for a game by Nintendo. You think they could have put a little more work into it so it is not so simple that it's dumb. I mean, who wants to play something that you have no control over (really).

I wonder if that was directed towards one person or a general public?

Well who was really expecting more than a 6.0 score? This just adds to the pile of crappy games Nintendo has been developing for the GameCube.

Oh my god, I'm so disappointed, what shall I spend my money on now.

Hopefully they'll do better with the sequel, which they better make!

Multiple times in my many years here I have run into people who seem to believe Nintendo can do no wrong... A new game being made by Nintendo? Well it's obviously gonna be good! Horay!

And they dismiss good games on other systems as "Not as good" as Nintendo games without even playing them (sometimes without even playing the Nintendo game)...

THOSE SARCASTIC REMARKS, MY FRIENDS... Are aimed at those kinds of people...

... o.O

Wow, what a disappointment. Kirby's Air Ride was what sold me on the cube in the first place.

Just for the record, I'm not trying to say that I believe all Nintendo games are good. There are crap ones out there.

And nice sarcastic comments people, keep them coming

I'll buy this game the second it comes out. I did the same with Doshin The Giant and I haven't regretted it!!

I think it's that damn cartoon. It would have been better if they didn't have to incorporate that show into the titles. I mean, jeez.. even the GBA Kirby wasn't as great as it could be.
