So this influx of great news and bright prospects has me trying to pin just how I'll feel when I see K. Rool even, like.. move for the first time in-game. Just watching him exist and be controllable is going to be such a thrill ride and I feel kind of silly for admitting that. But, I actually rewatch some of the reveal trailers to this day, the nostalgia just fills me with wellbeing. Mega Man and Little Mac are the two I've sat back and relived the most; they came close to rivaling the Snake moment in terms of hype (for me), and I'm waiting for that feeling once again.
K. Rool is genuinely probably the last character that'd fill me with this feeling. Maybe Geno, maybe an oddball like Dr. Wily (I really want this for some reason) but as much as I feel the newcomers in 4 were well-rounded and acceptable, far too many shoo-ins were shrugged off and my hype began to taper around the Robin reveal. Ryu would've absolutely floored me and had me running around my room in an insane frenzy of joy but the leaks, the leaks.
Anyone else rewatch some of the trailers from time to time, and is anyone else sort of banking on this being the last huge thing they're wanting/expecting from this franchise?
