7. Kirby Air Ride (2003)
System: Gamecube
Played with: Oldest friend

Kirby Air Ride has been #1 on my list of most-wanted game remakes for years now (though I would also be more than happy with a sequel). There isn't another game quite like it. Not content just being a kart racing game (which it absolutely succeeds at), Kirby Air Ride really shines with City Trial, a mini open-world adventure on a map full of vastly different locales all squeezed tightly together, full of hidden secrets and unlockables. Things you found in the map could alter your following races or they could alter your game altogether. But the secrets were really only a bonus, because the map is just so damn fun to navigate, especially given that you can pick up various Kirby powers to attack your opponent, not just in races, but in fun exploration. Everything in this game is just a blast, and it only becomes more fun as you go on. While many of the karts are typical of what you might see in a kart-racer to some extent, then you unlock things like the Wheelie Bikes and Meta Knight (who doesn't even use a kart, instead just flying through the stages).
