Kirby Air Ride (known as Kirby’s Air Ride at the time) was originally in development during the early days of the Nintendo 64. It went through many changes during its elongated development period (it looked like a snowboard game for some time and rumors say that this proto could have somehow evolved into 1080°) before eventually being canceled and then resurfacing on the GameCube in the form of a short video preview in March 2003 at the annual DICE summit in Las Vegas. We’ll never know how the various N64 versions could have been played, but the GameCube version is probably similar to the latest concept that Nintendo created for the N64.

I HATE how there is no ROM for this. Of course, they would have had to release it so i could buy it and then put it on my computer. But they really should have the ROM for this. I bet Nintendo never guessed that Kirby Air Ride would become so popular on the Game Cube.

Sadly the Kirby Air Ride N64 prototype is not leaked yet (and knowing Nintendo, probably it will never leak)
