a photo of a 3ds showing the puzzle swap minigame from streetpass mii plaza. a puzzle that has 540 pieces is shown. only 5 pieces have been collected.

i participated in this! i sprited stactus i had a lot of fun spriting this silly creature. and seeing everyone else's art! go look at the collab, there is so much incredible art there

pixel art of stactus, an enemy from kirby mass attack. stactus is a round plant-like creature with a cat-like face. the art shows three stactuses (stacti?) stacked on top of each other. at the bottom is a green stactus, leaning backwards with a surprised expression. on top of the green stactus is an orange stactus, winking happily. above the orange stactus is a blue stactus, which has fallen off of the orange stactus and is in the air.

doing very normal things this splatfest

a screenshot of splatoon 3, showing a team at the start of a match. all four inklings have the same hairstyle, wear the same headgear and shoes, and use the same weapon, the annaki splattershot nova. the team is titled "Tint-Shaded Flipped Annaki Splattershot Nova Double-Bun Gang".

i am so confused. what could possibly cause it to just not go to the results screen here

Saia @saiasprites.bsky.social · 26/01/2026

i was playing air riders and after a drag race i got a glitch where it just did not go to the results screen. the camera just kept slowly moving forward until i was out of the skybox and eventually got a connection error how does this even happen

question for anyone who knows more about 3ds hacking than i do. would hacking a standard 3ds cause games to detect it as being a new 3ds i'm trying to test this thing for wikirby (they don't have the rank thresholds for the standard 3ds) but the numbers i got so far are the same as the new 3ds ones

a wikirby screenshot from the page for the dedede gogogo minigame in kirby's extra epic yarn. it reads:
Due to differences in performance between the standard and New Nintendo 3DS hardware, the number of beads on each course varies based on the model being used to play the game, and as such, the rank thresholds also differ based on this factor.

Saia @saiasprites.bsky.social · 31/12/2025

i am realizing that i made very little art this year lmao the two that i did make are really good and i'm very happy with them! but that is a grand total of two pieces in an entire year! maybe i should try to do more smaller scale pieces next year instead of going for massive backgrounds like these

a piece of pixel art depicting a scene from the kirby series. kirby, king dedede, meta knight, and bandana waddle dee are shown flying away from a brick platform. the sky behind them is orange fading into purple, as if during sunset, though the sun is higher in the sky, being positioned directly behind kirby. kirby has the wing copy ability and is looking towards the viewer with a large smile, and bandana waddle dee is riding on king dedede's back.

they put ghost trick in kirby air riders

a screenshot of a kirby air riders license. the license owner's name is saia, and their title is phantom detective. depicted on the license is a ghost with sunglasses, and the character susie seemingly crushed under a giant piece of meat. these are references to the game ghost trick: phantom detective.

kirby air riders has given me a perfect example of this. look at this Non-Specific Holiday Event

a kirby air riders screenshot showing the rewards for a holiday event. included are a sticker depicting a christmas wreath, stickers depicting wrapped presents, a license theme with a christmas tree, and a santa hat.

a screenshot of the main menu of kirby air riders during a holiday event. a christmas ornament is visible, and red and green decorations have been added to the menu.

Saia @saiasprites.bsky.social · 28/11/2025

it did it again. what is making this happen lmao

a player's license in kirby air riders. it has various drawings and sprites of kirby, waddle dee, and rick, on a tan background. the player's title is "tsundere beefcake", and their name is "saia". their global win power is 0,165,188, and their class is yellow.

a player's license in kirby air riders. the visual design is the same as in the previous image, but some info about the player has changed. the player's name is "matt", their global win power is 0,102,545, and their class is orange.

Saia @saiasprites.bsky.social · 26/11/2025

i finished an online city trial and was looking at the other players' licenses and for some reason it put my name on one of them. what and it gave them a different global win power and class that is not theirs or mine

a screenshot of a license, taken on the kirby air riders results screen. the player's title is "sorta-kinda final boss", their license has a large boost image on it, and their icon is a top speed patch. the player's name is "saia". their global win power is 0,126,951, and their class is orange.

the same license as the first image, taken in a different menu. the player's name is now "decoy". their global win power is 0,197,763, and their class is yellow.

my actual license. it shows kirby with a panicked expression as food rains down on him. my title is "gaming gamer", and my icon is cook kirby. my global win power is 0,112,872, and my class is orange.

i think maybe using your special, switching to a vacant air ride machine, and taking someone else's air ride machine should not all be on the same button

Saia @saiasprites.bsky.social · 21/11/2025

.01 seconds behind the person in third place lmao

a screenshot of a kirby air riders results screen. the most notable part is that i, in 4th place, reached the finish line .01 of a second after the person in third place.

what an incredible milestone

042

Saia @saiasprites.bsky.social · 16/11/2025

i tried to start a city trial right before the test rides ended and i presumably got a connection error. but instead of it giving me the usual error screen and kicking me out i have just been stuck on this screen for 5 minutes

120

Saia @saiasprites.bsky.social · 11/11/2025

i think this alone makes it actually a half decent game now. maybe

The following control settings have been added to Settings in the Options menu (- Button).
You may switch between enabling and disabling Auto Target Lock for Cursor.

Saia @saiasprites.bsky.social · 09/11/2025

they showed an option that i assume allows you to reassign quick spin in the second direct. i don't know why it isn't in the demo

Saia @saiasprites.bsky.social · 08/11/2025

this game is already being very mean to me and it isn't even out yet i just wanted to use my favorite air ride machine lmao

Saia @saiasprites.bsky.social · 05/11/2025

what the hell was i doing in pikmin 3 to get this much play time lmao i never even beat the main story in the wii u version. how did i get over 250 hours in it

Saia @saiasprites.bsky.social · 12/09/2025

you know i've looked at too much kirby stuff when i can look at these two models and say they look noticeably different from each other lmao

kirby's model from the nintendo today app. there are a couple small differences from his model in forgotten land; his eyes are wider, and his feet appear to be smaller.

031

Saia @saiasprites.bsky.social · 05/06/2025

i got a switch 2 and the first thing i did was open kirby star allies and fight the three mage-sisters to see if the frame rate stays consistent (it dropped a lot on switch 1) seeing this at a normal frame rate feels wrong after getting used to how it was before

Saia @saiasprites.bsky.social · 25/03/2025

i thought it might be related to the existence of the sound selection cd that came out before the physical release of the full ost but the selections of tracks on each of them are different enough that i doubt they're actually related. what is nintendo doing this for

On CD, not in app:
Welcome to the New World!
Plundering Beast Battle
Through the Tunnel
Kirby Dance (Long)
Blue, Blue Breeze
Fast-Flowing Waterworks
Circuit Speedway
Invasion at the House of Horrors
The Wondaria Dream Parade
Metro on Ice
The Battle of Blizzard Bridge
The Wastes where Life Began
The Beast Pack's Final Stand
Hunted by the Beast

In app, not on CD:
Waddle Dee's Weapon Shop
Lunch Rush! Wave of Waddles
Elfilin
Soaring Determination: No Night is Eternal

Saia @saiasprites.bsky.social · 25/03/2025

what is nintendo doing lmao they finally added another kirby soundtrack to their music app but for some reason it's just 23 tracks instead of the full ost? there is no reason to not just add all the music at once

a screenshot of the nintendo music app, showing that kirby and the forgotten land is highlighted as their most recently added soundtrack. below a screenshot of the game is text saying "Twenty-three of the game's tracks are here today, and the rest are coming later this year!"

i was playing smash with my friends last night, picking random, and it gave me palutena it has been like 4 years since i mained this character. they are still terrified of her as if i'm not way better with my current mains than i am with her

a discord screenshot. usernames are censored.
person 1 (me): (in strikethrough text) "i kind of want to keep playing her"
person 2: emoji of a character with a terrified expression
person 3: "i'm scared"
person 4: (in all caps) "oh so you all want to see me suffer. you're busting out your most evil mains right when i say i'm joining"
person 1 (me): "i forgot that she is a fun character lmao"
person 4: (in all caps) "uh huh. i see how it is"

pinned post time! hi i'm saia and i make pixel art sometimes most of my posts are not pixel art and most of what you will see from me is just random posts about my favorite games but here is my art anyway. i like kirby a lot in case you can't tell

a piece of pixel art depicting various areas from kirby & the amazing mirror. in the middle of the piece is the dimension mirror, with meta knight sealed inside it. emanating from the mirror are lines that split the piece into 10 sections, with each one showing a scene from a different location in the game.

a piece of pixel art depicting the intro to kirby triple deluxe. kirby's house and castle dedede are lifted high into the sky by huge vines. kirby stands on a large leaf in front of his house, looking towards castle dedede with a surprised pose.

a piece of pixel art. kirby is shown happily walking through a grassy field, holding his phone. a speech bubble coming from the phone shows that kirby is talking to bandana waddle dee. meta knight can be seen reading a book in the background.

a piece of pixel art depicting the ending of kirby & the forgotten land. kirby is standing on a metal platform, with elfilin next to him, both looking to the background. in the background is a huge portal, with planet popstar on the other side. fecto elfilis can be seen in front of the portal.
