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

[xianfeng]

dude diddy didnt have a voice in dk64...

Yes he did, he made sounds and noises every now and then, they used a real voice actor too. He would say things like woohoo if I remember correctly (it's been many years since I actually played it)

plus its the sound from DKC thats were his modle is from...

His model looks nothing like his DKC model, it's still good though but it doesn't look like the DKC model look at the eyes, the hands and the feet.

Uknown one time me x and Diddy Kong all were posting on 1 page all avatars were diddys... was confusing

I know, for a while me and DDK had a similar sig too very confusing.

Mr. Ocax I agree with you, I'm just so glad that they didn't give Diddy the dumb *** grin they've been giving DK lately (examples include MKDS and MSCF).

 

[Kentalish]

... wait we dont know of diddys voice yet guys ... that was his dieing noise... we dont know nething yet

 

[xianfeng]

It sounds like he has a **** voice, but we can't expect everything to be perfect hence his Down B and his voice...

 

[Kentalish]

how can u tell what voice he has i only here his dieing one... plus its on a camera... i just want just diddy voice thing ... weil see

 

[Mr. Ocax]

If you listen to one of the videos, you hear Diddy just monkey screeching as he jumps around and fights.

 

[Kentalish]

its after he dies

 

[xianfeng]

So? He still sounds like some common monkey.

 

[Kentalish]

im sorry but im barley understanding... all i here is a monkey screetch when he dies

 

[Ukn0wn1]

Because they aren't weapons, it's another "screw you" to Rare's DKC fans. Despite the fact that Orange Grenade bombs from DK64 could be used in a very similar manner to the bananas as a projectile for Diddy but would also do more damage and they are a real weapon unlike bananas.

Yes, it does seem odd that they would use peanut popguns from DK64, but then forget about the orange grenade.

I think the reason they chose bananas is because the orange grenade is too similar to Link's bomb, I suppose. And being in the same category of special moves, they wanted something more distinct (banana peel mechanic rather than another spawned explosive weapon). It will also probably be more useful, and more dynamic than what a regular orange grenade could provide.

And yes, I am a huge DKC fan.....and I am very excited at the reveal of diddy's other specials. He looks like a blast to play, and that's what counts above all.

 

[Diddy Kong]

Monkey sounds don't bother me really, I think it's rather... unique or so to say. From what we've seen, Diddy seems to be a VERY fast character, maybe even rivalling Fox and Sonic (the latter not being as impressive in my opinion in speed). Didn't saw the banana peels yet, but it does bothers me that Sakurai really couldn't think of anything else and just thinks of Diddy as a generic monkey who throws banana peels and screeches.

Apperantly Diddy seems to be quite heavy aswell, since he survived up till 141% in one vid. Nice. His cartwheel is also involved and it seems to be his dash attack (SUPRISE?) and has quite the long range like in DKC! Awesome, can't wait to main Diddy! =D

Ike and DK being my secundaries. ^^

 

[GreenKirby]

If you listen to one of the videos, you hear Diddy just monkey screeching as he jumps around and fights.

They did the same to DK in the N64 Mario spinoff games. It's nothing new really.

 

[Kentalish]

im still going with my gut we dont know yet just by a dieing sound doesnt help

 

[GreenKirby]

In another video where Diddy shows off his Final Smash, he made sreeching monkey sound as well

 

[Lupo Aro]

Diddy's screeching monkey sounds are awesome imo. And if IGN is right, then I love his side-B while his down-B is rather pointless.

 

[Kentalish]

QQ no chimpy charge or cartwheel as a b move iF THEY TAKE CARTWHEEL OUT IM GUNNA KILL SOMONE

 

[Lupo Aro]

If they make his dash attack something else I will be sad.

But I still plan on making Diddy one of my mains, alongside Sonic and Snake.

 

[Kentalish]

do u know how many people i wanna own with cartwheel i hope u can combo with it

 

[Kentalish]

Diddy fans i still need wii numbers!E!!!

 

[Diddy Kong]

Wii Numbers won't help anything, cause we need Friend Codes again...

 

[Lupo Aro]

Cartwheel at 1:00?

 

[Burning Soul]

OMG THE CARTWHEEL


Plus his FS looks good, despite it not being the guitar =/

 

[Mr. Ocax]

Yeah, his cartwheel is his running A. I actually don't mind his down B. It could be handy while people are trying to jump and run around. It will be really helpful when I play against my friend who plays Jiggs. The bana peel would **** Jiggs if she rolls over it im assuming. As cool as the orange grenade would be, it might make Diddy too much of a projectile character.

 

[Kentalish]

what video is this?

 

[xianfeng]

I didn't even think about that! That'll really screw over sonic and jiggs

 

[Kentalish]

i cant find the cartwheel can somone show me vid and what time PLEASE.

 

[Mr. Ocax]

I forget which video had the cartwheel. I think a couple did. Just look at all the vids with diddy.

 

[Kentalish]

ive only seen 2 vids with him in it... the penut popgun looks silly tehe im gunna love diddy

 

[Mr. Ocax]

I love the popgun. I am so pleased with Diddy's moveset from what I've seen. I haven't seen a video with Diddy's so called "face pummel," but it sounds awesome.

 

[~N9NE~]

Diddy's FS is 10 times better then I thought it would be. He looks pretty fast, the popgun seems terrific and he's just as I imagined him to be. Hopefully his down B doesn't suck as much as I think it will.

 

[Kentalish]

ok i saw the 2 new vids today the cartwheel does 5 dmg... X can u put me on that diddy fan thing on first page with red righting or whatever a super diddy fan color is

 

[Sinn]

Diddy's Final Smash is going to **** characters on levels that have no platforms to hide under...like Bridge of Eldin.

 

[spikehappy07]

Diddy kong is high tier material, if not top tier, because he has something that most characters don't bring to the table: unorthadox fighting style. His quick speed mixed with nimble movement and creative(yet wierd) attack patterns make him a hard character to approach one-on-one.

I'm playing with him first when brawl comes out.

heres a diddy video the guys a noob but u get to see charged peanut and cartwheels... looks like u can combo with em

 

[xianfeng]

I'm going to delete the fan list because I don't keep track of it anymore.

 

[DTPrimus2112]

I think that his cartwheels are his shield rolls. Should of just made them his running A. Love the chimp sounds he makes when fighting. =P

 

[Sinn]

I dunno...I thought that might be it, but the rolls look different. It looks like his dash attack to me...

 

[Kentalish]

lol dude u gotta be stupid to think that thats what his cartwheels are then how come in another video it does damage dodges don t do damage

 

[Dynamism]

It's his DashA, and it's cool

And finally someone other than me has stated he will be top tier..jeez!

What more do you want!!?? Fast, agile, strong, unpredictable, good projectile, good recovery, decent weight...SERIOUSLY!!! My first post the day he was revealed had me say something like that.

SCRAMBLE!!

 

[Talendime]

I don't know about the tiers, but he's already my favourite character by far.
And I'm glad that he's nothing like Donkey Kong.

 

[Kentalish]

Diddy Kong Is Brawl!!

Scramble!!!
