Viva Pinata needs a revival on the Switch. It was one of those series everyone slept on at first but now everyone remembers fondly
DK64 was on the Wii U Virtual Console so it has been on modern consoles. Unless you are talking about the Switch, which it isn't on.
I actually quite liked that game as well.
Yup, and I still remember how many times people used the "relevancy" argument against characters like K Rool even though he was constantly topping the fan polls.
Dog, if you've never played DKC2, you haven't played the biggest reason why most Donkey Kong fans are as passionate as we are. It is considerably better than the original DKC and has quite the leg up on DKC3 as well. If you have a 3DS or Wii U, you owe it to yourself to play it. It's eight bucks.
Sora, Rayman, Crash Bandicoot, and Bomberman are all highly requested legacy characters too you know.
True, but I don't think they've been requested for as long as Banjo-Kazooie. Fans have been wanting them since before Melee.
I am in complete agreement with this. DKC2 is one of my top favorite games of all time; a true masterpiece of the 16-bit era. Anyone who's never played it before absolutely should give it a try, as it holds up incredibly well (assuming you're not looking for a deep story with a lot of context or anything like that). That game and B-K are the absolute peak of Rare at their very best.
Sora and Bomberman's popularity didn't pick up until the Brawl speculation days. Rayman Smash 4 and Crash pretty much Ultimate I guess. But you're right, Banjo & Kazooie have a longer history of most people wanting them in Smash.
I have played Donkey Kong Country 2 before and I've got to be honest, I prefer the first game more. I dislike how I can't play as Donkey Kong. I also don't like the art direction they took for the second one, going from natural sprawling jungles they gave you sense that the world was coming to life to cartoony, over the top roller coaster rides. Then there are some really annoying levels where you gotta jump up or don't to not have the doors come down on your kart and make you start over and that ghost version can suck my willy.
Ridley was memed to death after two deconfirmations in 10 years and still would have been had he not been chosen for Ultimate. Waluigi is in the same spot Ridley was in before Ultimate.
Could be a glitch in the Ad's programming. Could be real too. I doubt it since I've had ads link to different sites before so this wouldn't be anything new. The thread's implication of "Brave" in this context could still apply to many others, not just the little Yarnys. Funny how all the anon's would act like this is real when they crapped all over the Google theory.Wholly unconfirmed, but there have been reports that this YouTube ad for Unravel Two for Switch links directly to the Smash Brothers website when appearing as a preroll. This /v/ thread makes the claim, and it's also been noted in the comments of the ad's normal upload. Someone also made the connection that being 'Brave' is the theme of the game, playing as a small frail object in a large and hazardous world. It's not clear to me if any official text surrounding the game has used the word 'Brave' explicitly, so for now it's all conjecture.
Provided the screenshot is real, this is what it looks like (not mine):
Both that comment and this video recapping a major EU tourney were posted last week. Maybe it was just them or the algorithm putting Smash ads on their channel to reflect this specific upload?
It would be hypocritical of me to say I don't believe this but put faith in the Google theory. But this seems like a mistake or a glitch.Wholly unconfirmed, but there have been reports that this YouTube ad for Unravel Two for Switch links directly to the Smash Brothers website when appearing as a preroll.

If it's a glitch then that does put a dampen on the Google Theory.
Explain this image to someone in 1997-1998
I mean, I respect your opinion but out of the forty-odd levels in the game, two of them are roller coasters. And it honestly sounds like you just need to practice.
I really wish Nintendo would have pushed Banjo-Kazooie (1998) in Super Smash Bros 64 (1999) kind of like they did in Diddy Kong Racing (1997), Granted that might be cutting it close, But it would have been great to really cement them as an "All-Star" among the Nintendo cast at the time with their breakout hit, Though Melee (2001) would have probably have been a much likelier debut.
I believe it was Rare’s decision to add Banjo and Conker to Diddy Kong Racing once they got the OK to use Diddy Kong in their racing game
That's glorious
From my memory:
No, they were going to do a sequel to Pro-am but Miyamoto suggested they use Diddy Kong as the mascot of the title and create their own unique spin on a racer. And they did. And they added a bunch of characters they had games planned for. Including Conker and Banjo. That's the story.
That's true, forgot about that cause never had Wii U
Banjo-Kazooie, but no Donkey Kong? I wish his rights weren't wrapped up with Rare... You never see him anywhere
They also say Steve from a game called Minecraft will be in? Which is really strange to me because when I AOL search for Minecraft nothing comes up. Ask Jeeves didn't give me anything either.
Must be some completely exclusive to one part of the world franchise that might get in the sequel and receive 7 characters total by the fifth installment.
Hell, While a lot of us were in grade school playing the N64 in 1999, A lot of their fans weren't even born yet.
