Most friendly looking Nintendo villain ever?

[Frown]

Correct? http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/2/20/AdventureDeDeDE.gif

Of course, considering that the Kirby series is cute and all "happy-happy joy-joy".

Meta-Knight?

[KirbyWorshipper2465]

Well, mostly cute(not to worry, I did not forget Meta knight, Nightmare, Dark Matter, Marx and other villains, which are generally anything but cute).;)

[Rocketspark]

Yup.
Half the time he really isn't even evil, he just hates how Kirby hogs the spotlight.
In Kirby's Adventure (aka Nightmare in Dreamland) Dedede was actually fighting Kirby to keep Nightmare away from the Star Rod and the Fountain of Dreams.

So yeah, he's the friendliest of all Nintendo villians (almost friendliest of all villians).
In general he's a pretty good guy.

[Kirby_M@ster]

I think that's what makes up most of his appeal.

Apart from the fact that he's a penguin with a hammer.

[Roy-Kun]

Yes, no doubts.

That's a reason why I don't like him so much...

[Dragonbreath]

It's kind of a stretch to call him a villain at all. This guy makes Swiper-No-Swiping look like Sauron-No-Genociding. And he'll still kick more *** than Chuck Norris in hiking boots. Just goes to show how much awesome Brawl has to go around.

[t!MmY]

I'm wondering why so many people have the idea that Dedede (and Meta Knight) are villains? Did they only play through part of any given Kirby platformer and never finish it?

Wasn't Metaknight the final boss in Kirby Super Star? And I'm pretty sure Dedede was a final boss in one of the older Kirby games.

Besides, Metaknight might be playing a fairly villainous role in SSE.

[Desruprot]

I do not think so, because you can tell, well for one screenshot, that the Ancient Minister may have taken his Halberd by force...

[TidalSpiral]

I can't shake the feeling that Master Hand has something to do with SSE but we'll see...

While Dedede has that lovable appearance, there is a wicked twinkle in those gigantic eyes. And anyone who walks up to me with a mallet larger than my head is automatically a threat.

[EdwardGordon]

King Dedede is pure evil....

....he's just biding his time.... waiting to strike.....

look at his eyes! LOOK AT HIS EYES!!!!

[Lord Kagato]

Dedede isn't really a Villain and neither is Meta Knight. Sure, they both fought Kirby at once point, but they became good guys in the end. Dedede can be compared to Wario in a way. Not exactly evil and can do some good, but he is a bit greedy as well as stubborn and will only really help if he benefits from it.

[CodeBlack]

Dedede especially, is not villainous. He's like Wario but less evil: Whereas Wario usually only thinks about #1 and will do bad deeds if the profit is enough, Dedede generally fights against evil, even when it would be safer for him if he didn't (though he has no qualms with stealing people's food). He's selfish, not evil.

Meta Knight isn't really evil, he's just has an honor code that he obsessively abides by, from time to time: The one time where he tried to take over the world (Kirby Superstar), and his only ever truly villainous appearance, was because he wanted the make the people of Dream Land stop being lazy (or something like that). Every other time he has helped Kirby, sort of, even while simultaneously working for Dedede.


The biggest example of both of them not being evil. In Kirby's Adventure (later remade into Nightmare in Dreamland), Nightmare attempts to use the Star Rod and give everyone in Dream Land nightmares. Dedede, in a sincere effort to stop him from menacing the people of Dream Land, takes the Star Rod and breaks it into several pieces. As this stops people from Dream Land from having dreams, Kirby tries to stop him, suspiciously believing that Dedede was causing mischief, when he was actually trying to save Dream Land. When Kirby rejoins all the pieces of the Star Rod (defeating Dedede in a humorous scene where DDD hangs onto Kirby desperate to stop him), Nightmare appears, and Dedede give Kirby the Star Rod and helps him defeat Nightmare once and for all.
Meta Knight, while holding a piece of the Star Rod for DDD, apparently doesn't agree with DDD's plan and helps Kirby to defeat Nightmare completely (giving him invincibility candy to help him through some of Dedede's minions' other traps), though he would only give Kirby his piece of the Star Rod if Kirby bested him in battle.

[KindKing]

He does look the least threatening character in all Nintendo series, but if you look at games with him in it he usually just wants Kirby gone. He is not evil he just wants his time to shine be all the time. I am expecting something very evil from him. Also if you have seen the Subspace vids, Wario is an evil character and why would Nintendo put DeDeDe unless they needed more evil characters for Subspace.

[CodeBlack]

why would Nintendo put DeDeDe unless they needed more evil characters for Subspace.

Well, he was planned to be in the last two games, but never truly completed. More likely than for Subspace, they put him in to put in a new, interesting character to fight with.

THAT EVIL KING!!!

[Zek]

lol, pretty much every Kirby game ends with "But he wasn't really evil after all, the bad guy was this sinister shadow creature all along!" There are just a lot of misunderstandings in Dream Land.

[SonicLuigi]

i just hope that dedede is a strong as he is fat

[EpicE]

He looks so gay to me but I like his design in Brawl.

[gamer8]

Yeah, he looks friendly in that picture.

[Brawlmatt202]

I think that you're thinking of the anime, for th most part, but yeah, at first glance, King Dedede doesn't really look like anyone that sort of looks "evil" per se....

But he DOES do some pretty bad things.

[Dragothel]

i just hope that dedede is a strong as he is fat

amen to that

[metallic shadow]

king dedede is a clown.

[prettymanfairy]

king dedede is a clown.

Psh. He's not a clown. He's clearly an eagle/kitty cat mix.

[TidalSpiral]

He looks like the twisted offspring of a duck and a big mouth bass, with the gut of a sumo god. :D

I can't wait to team up with another heavy-weight player and lay the smack down using his ridiculous skill shots.

[True Fool]

This guy makes Swiper-No-Swiping look like Sauron-No-Genociding.

That is honestly the funniest thing I've read all day.

I needed that laugh. XD

Yeah, Dedede isn't evil per se, he's just stubborn. I can't wait to secondary him in Brawl! :D

[Draquoir]

meh In crystal shards he turned good. ie I don't consider him bad.

[Grod]

...And he'll still kick more *** than Chuck Norris in hiking boots...

I resent that.

[Xanderous]

Do people STILL find Chuck Norris jokes funny? Move on. It's been three years.

[DarkSpidey13]

Wasn't Metaknight the final boss in Kirby Super Star? And I'm pretty sure Dedede was a final boss in one of the older Kirby games.

Besides, Metaknight might be playing a fairly villainous role in SSE.

DeDeDe was indeed the final boss in the original Kirby's Dream Land. but past that, i couldn't tell ya...

but he stole Dream Land's entire food supply? that's not evil, that's just being a jerk...for no apparent reason, mind you.

[Mario Girl]

Well, mostly cute(not to worry, I did not forget Meta knight, Nightmare, Dark Matter, Marx and other villains, which are generally anything but cute).;)

Rawr Meta Knight is ADORABLY cute! >=O

[Meta_Sonic64]

Rawr Meta Knight is ADORABLY cute! >=O

Metaknight isn't cute, he looks evil

[Desruprot]

Actually he isn't evil, he is dutiful and chivalrous. also by what I have seen, we do not know Metaknights situation if anything he is good because the Ancient Minister Hyjacked his precious Halberd...

[heypancho]

You guys forgot to mention Peach. She's a mean bald *****.

[Desruprot]

this is a Dedede thread so who cares about peach she is in a different universe the Kirby/Metaknight/Dedede

[Raptorbite]

I think that's what makes up most of his appeal.

Apart from the fact that he's a penguin with a hammer.

wish I was a penguin with a hammer :(

[Raptorbite]

Bald?
