K. Rool Support thread.

[AIM0001]

O sorry my comp was being dumb, didn't mean to sent the same post twice n now I'm breaking another rule for double post. My bad

O I was looking at some screen shots of it. I don't really like the graphics compared to DKC's graphics. The cartoon look doesn't fit DK.

 

[xianfeng]

The graphics aren't that bad, they do suit DK in a new kind of way, they aren't horrendously out of place ala Jungle Beat, they are different but also good.
Plus Graphics were never what made DKC games so good, it was the gameplay.

I don't disagree with you there. The gameplay was really good is the best compared to all the other DK games but the DKC graphics have always been so appealing to me. When I look at King of Swing it reminds me of the DKC GBA ports with all those cartoony graphics(Jungle climber looks better graphics wise but no Donkey Kong game has ever been as visually appealing as DKC graphics.(Not even close.)

 

[xianfeng]

I never really cared too much about graphics, I always liked the games because they were fun.

 

[AIM0001]

Wow Ive noticed we took over this thread....Ummmm back to the topic uhhhh they should base K. Rool's design off his DKC design.(Haha,that's the only thing I can think to say. Even though someone has alrady said that.)

He really needs his ship stage on there too(DKC) if confirmed this month

 

[~Krystal~]

I hope I see King K. Rool in the game.

I'd even settle for Captain K. Rool. I can hear the Captain Rool users now....

BOOM!

HEADSHOT!

MY HEARTS BEATING MY HEARTS BEATING MY HANDS ARE SHAKING MY HANDS ARE SHAKING, BUT IM STILL SHOOTING IM STILL GETTING THOSE HEADSHOTS LIKE BOOM HEADSHOT!

BOOM HEADSHOT!
BOOM HEADSHOT!

No he was in Barrel Blast released a few weeks ago, before that Jungle Climber released a few months ago and before that he was in King of Swings a few years ago.

He also made a tiny cameo in the first Donkey Konga.

K. Rool would make an awesome PC and is the only good DK representative left. If I see another use "But he would be a clone of Bowser!" as an argument agaisnt him, I'll go on a killing spree.

 

[LUVTOY77-ROGUE WIREFRAME]

He would NOT be a clone of Bowser! Whoever said that needs their head examined!

 

[KirbyWorshipper2465]

He would NOT be a clone of Bowser! Whoever said that needs their head examined!

I agree with you on that. Besides, he does not even breathe fire(King K. Rool is a CROCODILE, not a dragon).

 

[nobletoast]

But there both reptiles!!!!!!

On that logic Link should be a Mario clone since their both mammals.

 

[Glowsquid]

To be fair, I only saw that "argument" used on Nsider (AKA ****** Land), I remmember that some guy there said K. Rool couldn't be in because "He's so fat, he can't move.". No, really.

 

[RamOne]

I agree with you, Resting Fox.

 

[Insurance Salesman]

I agree with you, Resting Fox.

Why? There is no valid reason that he listed that should exclude K. Rool from the game.

 

[LUVTOY77-ROGUE WIREFRAME]

Looks like Lucas may be taking over where Ness left off... WHY DID THE UPDATE THREAD CLOSE?! haha...
P.S. to stay on subject..go K. Rool!

 

[LUVTOY77-ROGUE WIREFRAME]

But there both reptiles!!!!!!

On that logic Link should be a Mario clone since their both mammals.

So... then really... there would only b to characters in the game. Bowser.. and then Mario. haha, cuz pretty much everyone else is a mamal. Haha...

(sorry for double post)

That person you mention has obviously never played Donkey Kong Country OR Donkey Kong 64...

 

[nobletoast]

Well Ness is more than likely out of Smash Bros.


*Moves the K Rool chess peice ever so closer to that sweet land of Playable Characterness*

 

[Insurance Salesman]

Why are you rejoicing that Ness is probably gone? He was one of my favorite characters, and is way cooler than his replacement..

Oh well; if K. Rool gets in, I'll get over it.

 

[nobletoast]

Who says im rejoycing? Ness over Lucas anyday. But one character knocked of the list of possibles means one less in competition for K Rool and many others im routing for.

 

[Glowsquid]

What would be the best final smash for K. Rool? KAOS (the Robot K. Rool created in DKC3) helping in battle would be sweet, that, or K. Rool transforming in his Mega King K. Rool form from DK: Jungle Climber.

 

[nobletoast]

What I had in mind was his pirate ship bombarding the stage in a flood of cannonballs, explosives and Kremlins. The Kremlins being shot from the cannons and acting as kamakaze pilots. It would be a good way of showing the humor K Rool brings to games as well as 100% awesome.

 

[KirbyWorshipper2465]

I have an idea that is more of a "Greatest Hits" tribute. K. Rool would start by belly-barging his opponent and send him/her flying. Next, he would change into his Kaptain K. Rool guise and whack the hapless fighter to the opposite direction before he/she touches the ground. After that, Rool would change into his Krusha Rool outfit and give the opponent an uppercut to send him/her into the air. Finally, he would change into his K. Roolenstein costume and activate his dynamos with his remote control, electrocuting the helpless victim. Like Meta Knight's FS, the Final Smash will be nullified if it fails to reach the opponent.

 

[xianfeng]

He also made a tiny cameo in the first Donkey Konga.

Ahhk, I only played the second one.

That person you mention has obviously never played Donkey Kong Country OR Donkey Kong 64...

Or Donkey Kong Country 2 or 3.

 

[AIM0001]

Well Ness is more than likely out of Smash Bros.


*Moves the K Rool chess peice ever so closer to that sweet land of Playable Characterness*

HAHA that was good.....But just because Ness is most likely deconfirmed, how does that make K. Rools chances any better. As much as I want to agree with you on that post. It actually seems like it betters MOTHER'S Claus character chances. But I hope I'm wrong. I'd feel a whole lot better if K. Rool was the next newcomer to be annoinced cuz I'm sick of waiting(along with waiting for Geno's confirmation.)

 

[xianfeng]

Claus doesn't have that strong chances, but when any character is deconfirmed that moves all characters closer to being playable.

 

[AIM0001]

Claus doesn't have that strong chances, but when any character is deconfirmed that moves all characters closer to being playable.

Yeah true but Claus seems to take more steps foward to confirmation than others right now and I'm not just saying that cuz I'm claus's #1 fan cuz I'm not but it seems that way. But ridley's chances look good because of Norfair. But still no hints for K. Rool confirmation yet...

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Is there a link to a good K. Rool moveset? If not, I could try and make one..

 

[AIM0001]

You should anyway......

 

[xianfeng]

Search through here there probably is one.

 

[nobletoast]

His forawrd smash must involve a boxing glove.

Make sure he isnt as slow as Bowser or DK. In alot of games he is shown to be quite agile.

And im all for some jetpack ^B.

 

[AIM0001]

I'm not sure about him having his boxing, pirate, scientist, King personale mixed in one character, I think That would be too complicating. i think they should just stick to his King/Pirate personas and that's it and plus I think we can all agree that those were his best. I say build a good move set off that and K. Rool will run this $hit. It'll be better to leave the boxer/scientist stuff out. Yeah we want him to be unique n all, but let's not over do it.

K.Rool will be K.Rool; not Kaptain K.Rool, not K.Roolenstein, and not Krusha Rool; King K.Rool.

Classic look for him WILL be his default; all those other guises only were for one game, while he's been the King in many more games (DKC 1, most of DK64, and from what I hear his appearences in Donkey Konga.) His look will be that same classic look, but he will still use moves from the other... "personas."

The other personas simply give K.Rool such a wide possibility of moves that they HAVE to incorporate them somehow (except for K.Roolenstein... all he did as mad scientist was push a button and float around)



Also, I just realized: K.Rool's FS will probably NOT involve a salvo of cannonballs/kritters/the lot, simply because of the fact that it's something outside of K.Rool himself, and would be hard to represent in a few levels. Nintendo's already got a bunch of pretty backgrounds going on and changing themselves constantly, so that leaves no question why Nintendo would ruin that by having a pirate ship fly into Space from the background to fire onto whatever ship that is the stage in Lylat Cruise (forgive me I don't play star fox) or having cannonballs/kritters fall from the "sky" in space like that.



Also... if you people want a THOROUGH K.Rool moveset prediction, someone PM me so I can give them my MSN and bug me like once a day to work on the moveset. I mean, I already have the form already typed out and formated for smashboards LOL!

 

[vesperview]

There really needs to be a new K. Rool thread, that thread starter is the worst thing I've read.

 

[AIM0001]

HAHA wow that doesn't sound like a bad idea I actually went back and read the first post from the thread starter. That hasta be the dumbest piece of $hit of an arguement I ever read. How can he say K. Rool is Rare's cheap knock off of Kraid. Do you actually think that Rare used a metroid boss for inspiration to make DK'S main nemisis? I think the K. Rool supporters don't have convince him of anything with the kind of arguement he has. But owell K. Rool for Brawl!

 

[ChronoSquare]

There really needs to be a new K. Rool thread, that thread starter is the worst thing I've read.

haha I agree with the making a new thread of an already existing one for once... but still that goes against my forum etiquette laws and I would not be totally OK with it unless the general populous of the K.Rool support thread (read: anyone who checks it these days) feel the same way about it; that we should make a new thread.

(Hmm... perhaps I should do so if I ever finish my K.Rool moveset... lol now with so much Brawl info out there's so much to consider as far as research for balancing the character goes...)

 

[Icetrash]

Suck it up K.Rool fans. Dont create a new thread, thats just stupid. If you cant accept the fact that some people dont want K.Rool in then you are an idiot.

About his appearance/moves, I think he SHOULD retain his king attire as like Chrono pointed out he used in DKC, DK64 and even the anime. Maybe if Brawl has such things an alternate costume may be his pirate attire. His moves would be combining all his appearances in DKC games and DK64, ranging from his crown(progectile?), his blunderbuss(recovery?) and we'll let Nintendo decide the rest =).

 

[Andy4Brawl_911]

K. Rool fans.... QUICKLY save K. Rool by going on (http://smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=125441)

reading the rules and voting for him, before he is out (Which looks very soon.)

 

[Mr. Ocax]

K Rool would be such a metal addition to Brawl. He is my remaining top pick who hasn't either been confirmed or deconfirmed. However, I worry that if Ness doesn't have the merit to be in Brawl, will they really add K Rool? I have been worrying that Brawl is gonna have much less characters than I thought. However, if they add another Mother character such as Flint and Claus then he could be saved. I think DK is a series that deserves 3 reps. Starfox will have 3 reps for sure with the addition of Krystal and DK deserves the same reps as Starfox. DK has certainly had MANY more good games than Starfox has.

 

[Glowsquid]

It's not the fact that the thread creator is not supporting K. Rool, it's more than he created this specificaly to piss off actual K. Rool fan (He even admit in the first paragraph.) and stop them from creating an actual support thread, plus, the "arguments" provided in the first post are complete bullcrap.

 

[Biggie Smalls]

K.Rool is one of the worst ideas I've heard for a character. Ever. In my humble opinion of course. So I've made this thread as a sort of challenge to see if anyone can persuade me and other Anti-K.Rools into thinking he belongs.
[And to diabollically beat the actual K.Rool fans to making a support thread. Now if they want to talk about K.Rool, they've gotta come to my turf]

What's wrong with K.Rool, you might ask?

Well, of course, He's far too bulky and slow; he's only 1/5 as alluringly wicked as Bowser, and Bowser was unfortuneately one of the lamest fighters in Smash [despite his coolness as a character]. If I were to put K.Rool on a list of all the characters that deserve to be in smash, he would be second from the bottom, right above Elmo.
Also, anyone can tell K.Rool was just Rare's cheap knock-off of Kraid, but with a cape, a crown and a twitch in his eye.

Even if you want K.Rool in Smash, and he was put in the final product I doubt anybody would ever play him. He'd just be a waste of data-space that could be taken up by good characters like Little Mac and Diddy Kong.

So if you think you've got what it takes. I'm game. Unsheath your Rhetorics gentlemen.

You need to change the title. Oh, and DK needs an antagonist representative.
