I wouldn't mind if he didn't have any, I would just like for him to bicker with the KI cast.
Uh, while awesome, Jungle Japes or Kongo Falls work amazingly well. It's King K. Rool that really needs his own stage.
f** right. I suggested this awhile ago. Nice to see it's still being mentioned.
well strictly speaking thats sora not nintendo and what i meant was they just tend to ignore the idea
A problem seems visible to me by this proposition, though I do like the prospect. While Cranky is known for... talking, who would he be talking to? Would it not be awkward for Donkey Kong, who does not use a voice actor in his sound clips, to be suddenly imbued with the power to hold an extended dialogue? Furthermore, it seems the obvious choice for him to be the advice giver if that is the content of such a smash taunt scenario.
i think they meant interrupting someone elses
Do you mean that Cranky is the subject of the conversation and not the author?
Theoretically, Cranky Kong could talk to specifically Diddy and Dixie Kong while DK would always be the absent nephew for his lectures. It'd be interesting and unique like that.
That would still leave me with the question of voice actors for Diddy. If it was exclusively Dixie, they could get by simply giving her a voice actor since she does not have a speech/non-speech affirmation.
Bruh, I just want Cranky Kong playable. While rambling is a staple of his character, it being absent from Smash would be more unnoticeable than anything and still quirky.
, either.
What do you mean?Besides, Sak hasn't worked on any DKC games. This isn't like
Well, consider this:
I see. That is logical. I do not keep up that well with Sakurai's idiosyncrasies, but it sounds like that practically rules out a dialogue box for the Kongs... and it would have been so pleasing! It is not everyday you get to see the Kongs that don't have grey beards and bad attitudes express their personalities vocally!
It would be funny though if DK were to summon Cranky only for him to say something like "I wasn't trying to contact you, you overgrown orangutan! I was..." 'Cuts off transmission' Lol!
i like it but ive never thought about it being detailed
That's the scientist from Star Fox. I don't think especially a lab coat would suit Cranky. He may uses potions, but their just a purchasable gimmick.
He wore the coat in the game where he sold potions
It's something you can throw on Cranky, but isn't his charm like how Luigi has a Mr. L custom.
So you mean it was a little out of character for him so he shouldn’t have it?
It isn't all that necessary. It'd be overall the wrong impression. A karate uniform custom with work better tho.
suit yourself
In my opinion I guess. A lab coat wouldn't be out of no where at least.
yeah. I’ve got a soft spot for DK64 it was my first DK game
nothing really
Well, he did wear a coat in DK64 so he's done the scientist gimmick at least once. It would be a sick alt for him in Smash.
I think Cranky becoming a racer in the next Mario Kart and him constantly making playable appearances in the future mainline DKC games will eventually ensure him a slot in the Smash roster at some point. K. Rool's in Smash and Dixie and Funky are in Mario Kart Tour so that's plus since that's makes Cranky very likely for Mario Kart 9 along with the other Kongs, K. Rool, and the Kremlings.
I can't see the Kremlings in Mario Kart, but def K. Rool and Cranky Kong. In terms of a roster slot being ensured for Crank, I believe it's already laid out, just Sakurai more or less likely doesn't see appeal in DK. Cranky's likeliness just cements his stay in Smash.I think Cranky becoming a racer in the next Mario Kart and him constantly making playable appearances in the future mainline DKC games will eventually ensure him a slot in the Smash roster at some point.

I think the rumors Hyle Russell has mentioned are true that Nintendo is planning to make DKC big again like it was in the 90s and make it a top official Nintendo franchise like Mario, Zelda, and Pokemon instead of a secondary one that barely get's games anymore. I think the future is looking very bright for the DKC franchise.
Right now, I'm waiting to see if Pauline's newfound revitalized popularity via Mario Odyssey will have her included in Smash, in either 6 or sometime before Ultimate DLC ends somehow. This, I think, would test that theory.
We did get K. Rool in spite of that, and since we're almost running out of major Mario characters anyway, there wouldn't be much choice other than branch out into DK.
and we're pretending that movies is not happening
