Coincidentally, I got an alert from this thread again! Any good Kirbu remix is good, what I want the most is another boss medley, only final bosses from the franchise! Imagine! 0's theme! 02's theme! Soul themes! ANYTHING!

got to say while i'm still not blown away by the kirby music selection thus far;

the great cave offensive arrangement is by far better than any other track in the game

To be honest I don't like that track very much, too much Green Greens in my opinion
you know what, i do agree with you. and while Crystal Field and Mystery Paradise is the best version of green greens out there, they should have given way more play time to Trees in the Depths of the Earth ( part that starts at 0:48 ) since that pretty much is the definitive version of the main theme of the great cave offensive

I'm starting to think that Sakurai is just extremely biased and he will not add more content of the new Kirby games.
Just Kirby's Final Smash, some crappy trophies and the music (just 3, there are more Green Greens versions than new Kirby music XD).

And that obviously means no DeeLC.

Ugh, I can't wait, just show the entire game, leakers!

Considering Sakurai also made Waddle Dee's, DeeLC is completely possible. In fact, I'm curious if Sakurai will even be the one handling DLC. Plus, characters are added from the whole team, so they'd probably discuss what characters are most deserving. Of course, Sakurai could always turn down a character since he's the head honcho, and he also gets the final word, but if there's enough love for a character it's chances are more. Also if the character has the possibility of being unique, which Bandana Dee has. I'm holding hope for Bandana Dee, and I'm sure if they really think hard about it, they'll realize he's one of the most deserving characters.
Also since Ridley's out of the question basically now, and same with Mewtwo, the biggest competition for Bandana Dee is actually just Dixie Kong, K. Rool, Issac, and possibly a veteran.

The big competition though would be Dixie and Issac in my opinion, they're the 2 characters that have the most possiblity, seeing that Dixie is highly requested and was playable in Tropical Freeze, and Issac is nowhere to be found, and highly requested as well. I'd say Bandana Dee has a great chance, especially with Kirby & The Rainbow Curse! Perhaps Bandana Dee will be some promotional character for that game, it's entirely possible.
So Chandelure, you better not use hope!

Exactly. He also created the character of Waddle Dees, and it's true that in Super Star, there is a bandanna wearing Waddle Dee. In that case, the character of a 'Bandanna Dee' has been around since Kirby Super Star, hence he created the character of Bandanna Dee. (Not sure if I'm straw-grasping, but what the heck, I'll support Bandanna Dee.)

Yeah, Sakurai made Bandana Dee, but he was only an enemy in a minigame.
Maybe Sakurai still thinks Bandana Dee is a minor character.

Meh, I don't know, I only know that I want Bandana Dee.
I'm fine now, I'm pessimistic sometimes.

Oh, and about Dixie as a competition, I don't know...
She has a trophy, but wait! the trophy itself is not the problem. The problem is that her trophy has an effect in Smash Tour.
I'm not sure it that affects her chances.

As long as she isn't an assist, which most of the smash tour items are, she'll be fine. Although this is sakurai so maybe he's just trying to throw us off by having her there, Who knows

I do feel as if there's going to more than just the tourney and mewtwo being developed.

At the moment, I feel like Dixie Kong is in a similar situation to Ridley, you have a vague idea of what she'll do, but for some reason that's not enough. If in the end she turns out to be nothing more than a power-up collectible, well... :( It'd be a shame if she was the first character deconfirmed in the Post-Mewtwo Era.

But Dixie Kong isn't too big

I'm a little dissapointed with the number of stages.
We need more, it's like the same number of Brawl, except this game has A LOT of returning stages...and they are bad stages IMO, like Mario Circuit and 75 mts.

But well...now that a Return to Dreamland and Triple Deluxe stages are disconfirmed, at least for me. I hope for a Castle Dedede or Milky Way Wishes stage for DLC.

And yeah, I´m complaining a lot.
The salt is real.

Let me be honest, I think Impa should've replaced Sheik personally... That's probably just me though.

I'm also slightly disappointed with the number of stages, but more with the stages themselves. 75M, and Mario Circuit Brawl should've never returned, a new flatzone would be nice, WHERE IS A BOWSER'S CASTLE, Return to Dreamland deserves a new stage, and PACLAAND... PAC...LAND... That stage is a mess, and a waste. It's horrible and ugly. I would've much prefered Pacman's Maze from the 3DS version. I also would love Mute City and Magicant... but that's less of an issue.

I wouldn't mind Bandanna Waddle Dee, but the Kirby series has a lot of reps all ready if you think about it.

Like- compare the charts
Sonic: Sold 140 Mil - One Character
Donkey Kong: Sold 71 Mil - Two Characters
Kirby: Sold 34 Mil - Three Characters

Like, not to say I don't want Bandanna Waddle Dee, but I think Sakurai should prioritize.

It's OK, but this is not about marketing only.
And Sonic is third party.

I saw you in others forums... Anyway welcome to the club Bandana Brigade!

I'm also slightly disappointed with the number of stages, but more with the stages themselves. 75M, and Mario Circuit Brawl should've never returned, a new flatzone would be nice, WHERE IS A BOWSER'S CASTLE, Return to Dreamland deserves a new stage, and PACLAAND...
Im presonally was OK with mario circuit from brawl but then there Mario Circuit from Mario kart 8, I think they should stick with eight.
But 75M... Im really hate that stage, It was one of those horrible stage like Hanebow, Why 75M need to be return??? I think because hold history to Nintendo, I think....

After all we need more new stage!!

Is you guy, alredy see it by the way, Gamexplain show all the character tittle display on the Boxing Ring Display Screen on the back of the stage.

Kirby- The Pink Puffball
Meta Knight- The Masked Swordman
King Dedede- The King of Dream Land
That What I saw and read.

Bandana Dee would be like: Everyone Favorite Idol, Helper-Hero or The Spear Master(Just like the thread tittle!) What you think of yours!

(Im still wating for City Trial Remix and Cynthia Remix on Youtube...)

Well it kinda is. Sakurai wants people to buy DLC. So he's not going to put in some random character (not to say BWD is super random) but well.... I just think the Bandanna waddle is low priority. I mean, yes, Kirby is an important series, but most Kirby fans are at least pretty content with the current roster, right? Bandanna Waddle Dee would just be icing on the cake.

So that is why I'm guessing DLC characters will be mostly EXTREMELY wanted characters (aka King K. Rool, Mewtwo, Ganon)
Or they will be new characters from unrepresented series (aka Rhythm Heaven, Golden Sun, Professor Layton, Excitebike)

I mean c'mon be honest- the Kirby series in Smash Bros is repped pretty darn well. You can't really complain.

While you could argue Kirby doesn't need 4 reps... Does FE need 4 reps either?

That's just opinion.
Someone can think DK is fine (not me, but yeah, that's subjetive).

And I don't care if Kirby is repped well (and I also don't think that's the case).
I just want to play as my favorite character.

I don't think you should mention Sonic since he's third party. He's lucky his franchise has even one rep being himself. I don't think the third parities should be repped beyond the more iconic character.

I completely understand and believe the DK franchise SHOULD get another rep though. I would not be against that. The DK games sell a lot, Retro does a great job on the recent titles, and DK is pretty old as far as characters go.

Very true- IMO Fire Emblem and Kid Icarus got over repped.
Although To be fair Lucina (and Dark Pit) are clones. So it's closer to 3 really. (3.5?)

Although the reason for so many Fire Emblem characters is because Awakening saved the franchise- it was supposed to be the last one in the series- unless it beat 250,000 sales the series would end... and it ended up being the best-selling Fire Emblem game ever.

With Sonic becoming more important on Nintendo consoles than ever, plus Sonic is the 8th most popular game series ever...
would it kill Sakurai to put in One more character?!?

Well, though Sega and Nintendo are 'buddies', Sonic still isn't a Nintendo franchise.

I don't think that matters. Smash is MOSTLY a celebration and love letter to Nintendo's work and fans... not Sega's. Sonic doesn't need a new rep. No 3rd party character has had more than a single rep. Soon Megaman fans will be clamoring to say the same. I just don't think it should happen. Sonic games will appear on other consoles as well even if lately we had Lost Worlds and Boom. As a FRANCHISE he's not exclusive.

Clay Bandana Dee is so cute that I wouldn't mind that being his default art style if he were to be DeeLC.

Really? You think? Ik it's an Nintendo homage but Sonic is pretty well imbued within Nintendo's History Now, either being enemies, or Partners, Mario and Sonic Olympaic Games...

BTW this is coming from someone who isn't even a huge fan of Sonic. I have literally One game of his.
Even checking his modern games... 4 out of 5 are exclusive to Nintendo consoles/handhelds.


Anyways we should probably get back to Waddle Dee. This is his thread.
