Diddy Kong Appreciation Thread: From Dinky to Diddy, From the Jungle to the Brawl.

[Thrillhouse-vh.]

I wish you and Basement Dweller would shut up already.

Most likely their the same person.

ANYWAYS: why wuld chunky be in before diddy?

Chunky would be a DK Clone, even DK JR has more movelist possibilities

 

[zombie7775]

1. not the same person.
2. he wants chunky
3. I dont want him.

 

[The Basement Dweller]

We are two people you guys need a life and DK is the main of almost all of them. Anyway it isn't going to affect the roster if someone is for or against them not here anyway.

 

[Iggy K]

Posting crap AND insulting people, anyway, learn to spell, I have no idea what the hell you meant after saying get a life.

 

[xianfeng]

I wish you and Basement Dweller would shut up already.

They can say what they want but it would be better if they were nicer about it.

 

[zombie7775]

Me and Dweller might be nicer if we wernt accused of being 1 person every other post.

 

[xianfeng]

I will stop accusing you of being the same person from now on ok, Chunky always was the funny one in DK64 but he wouldn't work too well in Brawl he would proberly end up being a dk clone, but Diddy doesn't share any moves with anyone else

 

[The Basement Dweller]

Posting crap and insulting people, anyway, learn to spell, I have no idea what the hell you meant after saying get a life.

I left out "is" there were no spelling errors though and you need a life because you are allways accusing zombie and myself as being one person. If you need a third person besides us who know we are different people ask Master_J if he gets on ever. He has been registered for almost four days and has no posts all he did was PM zombie asking what he should do. On top of that we are hosting a tournament if we can get the school in Perrysburg so lets see my supposedly Schizoid self be in two places at once there. If we have the tournament contact Sliq he will be going he will vouge for us then I'm sure and he doesn't even know us I mean how could he he lives two hours away. So wait untill then to accuse us of being the same person atleast why or better yet come to the tourny yourself details are on the Midwest regionals under Northwest Ohio Tournament in Perrysburg.

 

[Iggy K]

Then you must have left something out, I didnt' understand this part

and DK is the main of almost all of them.

Main of what? And since I live in Australia, i doubt I'll be going to your tourney.

 

[zombie7775]

Ask Mic 128 we have different IP addresses. Check the thread No Items in brawl. He says it in there.

the main of the games it was a response to an earlier comment.

 

[xianfeng]

the main of the games it was a response to an earlier comment.

Yeah and you said you wanted no secodarys which means remove half the melee characters

 

[primusfan]

Whoever said we don't need anymore DK characters needs to see how many DK characters are already in the Smash series....ONE! We have one DK character. I'm sure we can fit in one more.

 

[falcosmassacre01]

Diddy Kong is the second most popular DK character and he is giving DK a run for his money, Diddy Kong and Dixie Kong would not be a team as they already both have enough moves to be individual characters. Diddy Kong for SSBB!

[Black/Light]

I don't like him but I don't really care if he gets in. . . .

It's pretty safe to say that he is the most popular Nintendo character not included in a SSB game so far, I don't care if he's cheezy or not he's my new main

 

[falcosmassacre01]

it would suck though itll be like if ur p[alying with sheik hell be cheezy and have easy set ups and just hope that they make him that no noob scna pick him up and ha ve a easy time beating people.

 

[xianfeng]

I want him easy to use but hard to master if you know what I mean.

 

[falcosmassacre01]

was anyone wever so into diddy kong that in donkey kong country u wouldnt use d.k you would just use diddy kong?i beat every level with didy i would die if i didnt.

 

[xianfeng]

I beat every level with Diddy Kong on DKC, on DKC2 I think I beat a few levels with Dixie though.

 

[NukeA6]

Everyone I know who has played Donkey Kong Country, prefer to use Diddy rather than Donkey. Makes you wonder why Diddy isn't in Melee (not even as a trophy).

 

[BIRDMAN22]

Everyone I know who has played Donkey Kong Country, prefer to use Diddy rather than Donkey. Makes you wonder why Diddy isn't in Melee (not even as a trophy).

Matter of opinion. Most of the people I know prefer DK over Diddy. It is wierd that he wasn't even a trophy though.

 

[xianfeng]

Proberly because he was supposed to be in the original version and they had his 3 trophys made up and then when they removed him they forgot to re-add his trophy, I have some reasons I think this
1) he was on the melee gamecube cover (or so someone said a few pages back)
2) He was mentioned in Dixie's Trophy
But that is strictly IMO.

How could you prefer DK over Diddy in DKC he had like no advantages apart from strength but in that game it didn't really matter.

 

[PITforREV]

whoa whoa whoa, diddy wasnt on the melee gamecube cover...Give me some proof bro.

Your right, so it doesn't mtter which one you played. Most my levels werre finished with DK

IN DKC2, most of them where Diddy.

IN DKC3, most were dixie

 

[xianfeng]

whoa whoa whoa, diddy wasnt on the melee gamecube cover...Give me some proof bro.

someone said it a few pages back, you'll have to look

 

[lanky_gunner]

i really need to play dkc again.

but i never used donkey kong that much in any other game after diddy appeared. i always liked to play as diddy. the only time i perfer dk over diddy was in mario baseball, but that isn't part of the series.

and i don't understand why he wasn't even a trophy. you have good reasons xianfeng. hopefully sakurai will see the potential of diddy and put/keep him in brawl. i mean, how many diddy haters have we had on this thread anyway?

 

[PITforREV]

someone said it a few pages back, you'll have to look

Well did he just SAY it? Or did he show proof of it?

 

[xianfeng]

Well did he just SAY it? Or did he show proof of it?

said it, he went to get proof but he hasn't come back yet and colbusman we've had 2 diddy haters zombie and basement

 

[zombie7775]

I dont hate diddy I just think there are better characters then him.

 

[The Basement Dweller]

said it, he went to get proof but he hasn't come back yet and colbusman we've had 2 diddy haters zombie and basement

Personally I'm flattered you remembered me. Your right I don't like Diddy for Brawl, but I neversaid I hayed himin all the other games he was in I personally thought hewas easier to use in DonkeyKong Country.

 

[xianfeng]

I dont hate diddy I just think there are better characters then him.

Like who? Diddy has popularity (the most popular Nintendo character not included in a SSB game), game count (20), recognisablity (the first two help this), originality (see moveset), can represent 2 series (DK which has next to no representation and Diddy Kong Racing) what's not to love?

 

[zombie7775]

Are you counting all DK games or just the ones with diddy in them?

 

[Super_Cool]

Are you counting all DK games or just the ones with diddy in them?

How many DK games don't have Diddy?

 

[nux23]

How many DK games don't have Diddy?

About 3 or 4

 

[xianfeng]

About 3 or 4

one Jungle Beat and I was counting all the games Diddy has been in Playable character or NPC

 

[zombie7775]

Can you really count the remakes of DK country. It so then its like 16 if not its 13. So he has had the games I dont doubt that but Double Dash, Konga, Konga 2, Mario Golf can you count games that are spinoffs of the series. There are more like that I just think that is enough.

 

[xianfeng]

I wasn't counting the remakes and I do count the spinoff series

It's only 20 including future appearances
