Kirby Air Ride Remastered

Kirby Air Ride Remastered is an upcoming game for the Nintendo Switch. It is a remake of Kirby Air Ride that was released for the Nintendo GameCube back in 2003. This re-release of the game will commerce the 30th anniversary of Kirby.
==Overview==
Development for the original game began in the early era of the Nintendo 64. Kirby Air Ride was originally intended for the N64, but poor graphics and slow speed led to the cancellation of the release. The game was under the prototype title of Kirby Bowl 64, which was first sighted at a Nintendo Space World show back in 1995. When the GameCube was revealed, HAL decided to develop new material of the game out of scratch. Kirby Air Ride was sighted at E3 in May 2003, and the final version was released in Fall 2003. This would turn out to be the last game Masahiro Sakurai directed while tenuring with HAL before resigning and later forming Sora Ltd., which rose to stardom by developing the later Super Smash Bros. titles.
Kirby Air Ride was developed by most of the staff that were also responsible for the works of Super Smash Bros. Melee. The game has mechanics similar of those from the Mario Kart games.

*Turbo Star: A ride with great speed, but steering can be sometimes tricky.
