I'll bet my sig for a year [anything you want] that Diddy is in Brawl. If whoever takes this bet loses, they have to have a Diddy avatar for a month, and a Diddy sig for a month [and have their sig in all their posts]. Any takers=??? [post here, don't PM me]=???

Ya, I'm that confident! I've already swayed like 10 people to see Diddy has a good shot, and to be pro-Diddy! It's all for a good cause! XD

Edit: AWSOME LINK UPDATE :)
HAHA, my old genius post! :) and who else just did a mother ****ing backflip=??? **** ya! **** ya! **** ya! **** ya! **** ya! **** ya! :) :) :) :) I think I'm crying with joy! :) :) :) :) :) :)

Side + B Cartwheel

Down + B Err.. I dunno.



Looks like a taunt.



Hes tail is quite long, perhaps a grab?

All those people thought he would be an Ice Climber style with Dixie we showed them! He's solo with DK64 moves Sakurai does love us!
I couldn't have said it better, my friend. I'm happy....I'm mother ****ing HAPPY! I feel like going outside [it's 2:35 am] and yelling "wat now, Diddy's in Brawl you mother ****ers who doubted him! Love how I said yesterday he's pratically in Brawl...I'm a psychic, lol! :laugh:

Congrats, xianfeng! I know you have been waiting for this for a long time. =)

I can't say that I'm at all surprised by this update--we all saw it coming--but I didn't expect it to come already. In any case, congratulations!

I never had much interest in Diddy, but seeing him know brings up memories of DKC as a kid... nostalgia is kicking in :D.

Plus the way he's described makes him sound super fun to play. I'm considering adding him to my tentative list of mains.

I don't think I realized how much I wanted him in till I saw this update. He's got a lot of potential. I'm really excited now.

Do you like my title? If you don't you can suck it because he's confirmed!!!!!!!!!
O YA! I'm changing my avatar to diddy now, I'm happy! :) My monkey for the f***ing epic win! And I love the name, all those f***ers can suck it! :laugh: :p :)

LOL at you hugging your emo sister! XD After xianfeng started this thread, it's finally done! Yes, our insane biased, dedicated, and extremist fanbase has done it! WE HAVE WON THE WAR! :)

F*** YES! After hearing Peepy say "Do a Barrel Roll!" "And Do A Backflip" for so long, I finally did both, multiple times! :laugh:

And that's nothing xianfeng, I screamed so loud my mother thought she heard a robber, and came out with a lamp, and I poped up, and she freaked out [I'm not that ugly *takes off mask*]. HEHE, this is a sign of good things to come. This alone makes Brawl better than Melee! :)

What I liked most about Diddy being confirmed is that he pretty much spat in the face of the prophecy guy.

Yay, when i checked the site at 5pm (usually the time it appears each day), i was disappointed since there wasn't any updates. But i was expecting a new/veteran character to be updated, not sure why.
To my surprise i found diddy, i wanted him in for ages. Too bad dixie probably won't be in it, it would have been good to get more girl fighters in though.
But yay for diddy.

Thank God! Now we can stop listening to morons who thought he'd be a team character with Dixie.

Diddy Kong is the only character that I would have been pissed if he didn't get in. Now I'll be happy with pretty much any final roster.

Nice to see the DK series getting repped a little better :)

Anyone who says Meowth will be a playable character isn't very reliable anyway...

Besides...Diddy may not be the only character update this week...it's possible...

This update is awesome. Not only is Diddy confirmed, but we know he's got 2 of his awesome abilities from DK64: the Rocketbarrel and his Popguns. Needless to say, I will be using Diddy as soon as I can. Congrats Xienfang! I know you and many other have waited for this day for a long time

Oh, and the Gamefaqs insider just got OWNED. Big time.

YES! I guess there was some good in breaking night. Diddy is playable and I for one am happy.
Now..... how about Dixie?

Ya, same here. Ddidy was my #2 pick, and if my #1 pick WW Link, and #3 pick Megaman don't make it, I'll still be more than happy. Hell, if the rest of the roster is Plusle and Minun copies, I'll be happy! :)

O, and quote from the f***ing truth! :) That teaming together sucked ,minus switching Shiek Zelda style, though them seperate is obvoiusly the best! :) Glad Sakurai has brains....and b***s!

*releases Sakurai's family from being captive*

Sakurai said:
Unfortunately, screenshots fail to truly capture the way he moves.

Hopefully HOPEFULLY this means we will be getting a video soon including Diddy so we can see him moving :)

I bet Diddy's final smash is his electric guitar from DK64, just like DK's is his bongo attack from DK64. Another cool FS would be if he gets on Rambi and tramples over people.

I'm sure his jet pack will be his up B. The peanut popguns will probably be his neutral B. He sound like he'll be a quick character with good recovery and projectiles, so he should be pretty good.

Hopefully we'll get more DK characters, like K. Rool. If this game came out in the SNES days there'd be like 6 DK characters, they should at least add a third for those of us who grew up on SNES.

where are those guys that said he wont have DK64 moves!!!??? they can suck it too!
"They can go f*** their moms!" :chuckle: You know, I love being right! :) Anyone who said Diddy would be lame, won't make it, or he should die, go f***ing jump off a cliff, because you're f***ing wrong! Diddy is here to stay, and he'll pwn your arse anyday! :) BTW, I bet my soul, mother, sister, both brothers, cat, car, house, sould, left nut, heart, brain, TV, Melee disc, gamecube, and me never playing Brawl Diddy was in Brawl....and I won. Good, becuase my left nut is my good nut! :laugh: :p :) :chuckle: ;)
