Summary

This week is all about the pink puffball, as Tom Marks joins Logan Plant and Rebekah Valentine to share his review of Kirby and the Forgotten Land - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Star-Crossed World, including if it’s worth picking up the $80 version if you’ve never played it before, or the $20 upgrade if you already own the Switch 1 game. Then, the trio dives into Masahiro Sakurai’s 47-minute Kirby Air Riders Direct, breaking down our best look yet at the Switch 2’s first big November game. They discuss how it looks like an iterative GameCube sequel 20 years later, Sakurai’s amazing attention to detail, some concerns about the longevity of the City Trial mode, and a lot more.
