Kirby Air Ride - Gamecube

[BLUEVOODU]

for some reason, it is weird to me that this belongs in the retro gaming section.  However, it is that time 20ish years later.  Did you ever play Kirby Air Ride on the Gamecube?   If so... what was are your thoughts?

I was talking with my son the other day in regard to Kirby Air Riders on the Switch 2... and honestly, I completely forgot I had Kirby Air Ride on the Nintendo GameCube    I have no recollection of even playing the game... which was a little surprising  .  It was opened, and my son remembered it LOL... but I did not.  I do remember the cover of the Gamecube title though... so I must've opened it and just didn't play it or something.  However, do you remember playing it?  What were your thoughts on the game and did you enjoy playing the game?

I remember the game being advertised but it was never in stores locally. At the time I think I was purchasing my games from local merchants. I don't remember the game being that hyped up. So I had forgotten about it. I was more into shmups and was leaning towards RPGs. I missed Kirby Air Ride.
