Sakurai better add my nigga Rick.
For me he was always the real (ham)star of the series.

Edit: do you guys think it will have item bounce?
 
Starman is such a random Glup Shitto Kirby enemy to show this level of favoritism towards, it only appears in certain games and even then they’re uncommon. I’m sure a lot of people weren’t even aware of them before now, they’re just featureless star-shaped things with a cape, Waddle Dees are at least significant because they’re basically Kirby’s equivalent to Goombas. Sakurai was just like “fuck it, I like this uncommon enemy from Kirby’s Adventure so we’re putting it in the game as a playable character.”

I never knew its name and always thought it was meant to be a bunny in the 2D games, especially since it's ability was jumping upward

I was going to wait until the inevitable post-launch price drop every console has after a year, but god damn, Kirby Air Riders is calling out to me like the Green Goblin mask
Yeah, I was gonna wait a bit too. But, Sakurai really just has a way with his words.
 
I can hear the zoomers screaming their heads off right now...

"WTF I CAN'T SEE SHIT ON THIS TINY SCREEN, FUCK THIS SHIT!!!"

Nigger, I played MarioKart64 on a CRT with 3 other people and I was able to see wtf I was doing. It's not that hard. Get your fucking eyes examined.
I don't give a shit if I can see or not, it's actually fun to play split-screen.
 
Sakurai dropped kino once again, GOTY for sure. The only thing I’m disappointed about is not having the original City Trial map return and the voice menu’s “English A/B” giving “character type A/B” vibes but I’ll chalk that up to NoA being NoA since even Sakurai just said male/female, but that’s a small complaint considering how great everything else looks. Easy day 1 purchase, can’t wait for the test ride in about two weeks. The Kirby general on /vg/ is gonna eat up that picture of Susie wearing a flower, aren’t they?
>no Adeliene or Ribbon

I just think they're cool, underutilized characters
They’ve been getting a good amount of love since Star Allies, so I’m not too torn up. Besides, we’re at least getting Zero-fucking-Two as a boss.

I think from Sakurai's wording in the direct it seems to be that this is all the characters that they will be publicly revealing. Not necessarily all the characters that will be in the game, As i'm sure they want to keep some secrets for us to uncover once the game is out.

This has to be the only explanation, because you can't liberally reference Kirby 64, up to and including bringing back 0², and not bring Adeliene and Ribbon in
