2027 already showing a heavy competition of my personal GOTYs 🥹 (maybe persona 6 too if it actually does release in 2027 from leaks)

I think it's really funny seeing people say that a Kirby spin-off hitting nearly 2 million sales in 8 months is a flop/disappointing. This would have been the same result at $60 as well.
In reality, this is very good for the series.
Kirby Air Riders is now over 1.9m units shipped in 8 months.
Shipping another 30k units this quarter.

Would DLC have helped? Maybe? But having everything from day 1 is much better practice and I find it very ironic that plenty of people are saying this but would likely oppose DLC in other games for the reason of it being "incomplete at launch."

And for those saying that a Sakurai-made game deserved better, while I understand the sentiment it's always been clear that the crazy sales numbers we see in Smash Bros. (Not counting Kid Icarus Uprising as it sold quite a bit less than Air Riders!) is not related to him.

Obviously the first party Nintendo titles (plus Pokemon) will hit insane numbers, but for a sequel to a niche spin-off from over 20 years ago to hit the same sales numbers as some mainline entries to sell so much in so little time is very impressive.

y’all don’t deserve labbers and informational content creators. you ever wonder why nobody makes tutorials anymore?
it’s because it takes tons of effort, creative thinking, research, and practice, just for your community to take the piss out of whatever you produce
