K. Rool's Kremling Kutthroats: PM BKupa666 for an Invite to the New K. Rool Thread

[Deleted member]

Entrance: He's laying on the ground playing dead. Then he pops up to get ready to fight.

Animations, well, that's anyone's guess.

 

[Marcosplay]

i love this character

 

[N3ON]

I always thought a good entrance for K. Rool that highlights the humorous elements of the character would be if he flew in on that little helicopter thing he used in DKC3, but before he touched down it breaks and he falls and lands on his face.

It's sad that I've given more thought to some characters' entrances than actual movesets (like K. Rool), but that's probably just because I'd be pretty satisfied with whatever his moveset ends up being (though I hope he uses the blunderbuss).

 

[8-peacock-8]

My moveset is bassicaly the one Pizzadudemanguy made.

B = Blunderbuss
B > = Crown throw
B ^ = DKC3 Helicopter pack
B V = Shockwave/stomp move he does in DK 64

 

[BerryBomber]

Maybe his entrance could be like the boxing fight in DK64. There would be a large arena light that he is stuck in, and is running in blindly from the side of start position, yelling. He slips on a banana (lanky kong fight) and he falls on his back, causing the light to slip off of him. He stands up and gets ready to fight, and the light disappears.

This would never happen, but it would be hilarious if it did

 

[Mario & Sonic Guy]

Maybe as an entry input, K. Rool would dive down onto the ground, causing it to vibrate. A reference to that high jump that he used in Donkey Kong Country, prior to the falling cannonballs.

I could easily see this happening. It's something I identify him with thanks to Donkey Kong Country.

 

[jigglover]

I've just noticed the kutthroats part of the OP. Where am I!? (If your a little bit dim that means add me)

 

[Phantom287]

I can't remember if this was brought up before, but should K. Rool have alternate costumes in the same way that Wario has an alt. costume? After all, K. Rool does have a rather large wardrobe; definitely the most fashionable villain.

 

[BKupa666]

I, too, like the idea of K. Rool rising from "the dead" as an entrance.

I think we said that his costumes would be awesome, but that it might be difficult to program him doing crown-related moves in them, since he wouldn't have a crown in his alternate get-ups.

Do you guys think there could be ways around this?

Pirate K. Rool throws his pirate hat.

Not sure about the mad scientist costume.

Spoiler

Or they could half *** and make him throw his crown anyway, despite the costume.

Beat me to it, Peacock.

Yeah, why not have him throw his respective headwear? They could always give his Baron costume goggles to throw.

Or they could just do like you said.

Oh yeah, forgot that the scientist costume had a pair of goggles.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

How about just not having the crown rolling move?

 

[BKupa666]

I don't think there's any chance of that, since it's his most iconic move by far.

What if Baron could throw his remote control? That might work also.

 

[Deleted member]

He throws the Frankenstein-esque lump on his head, which is revealed to be just a cap.

 

[BKupa666]

His toupee? Now there's a funny image. Maybe he can just throw his entire helicopter pack too?

Now, now. We don't want K. Rool to be too powerful.

 

[Ferio_Kun]

Add me to the KUTTHROATS!

I did have the Kaptain K. Rool outfit inputted as a possible alternate outfit option for K. Rool.

 

[BKupa666]

It seems as though K. Rool is not only running for Smash, but for the POTUS as well.

Here is his campaign message.

Write-in K. Rool on November 6!

 

[FlareHabanero]

Ironically K. Rool would be the most honest president ever.

Slaughtering babies, throwing trash everywhere, spending funds on laser guns, stealing from others, lying under oaths, and stomping on flowers.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

At least when he's lying and cheating he's honest about it

Ya know, more or less

 

[jigglover]

He's honest when he's lying? Is he untruthful when telling the truth?

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

It wouldn't be K. Rool if he wasn't honestly lying

 

[jigglover]

It wouldn't be K. Rool if he wasn't honestly lying

I'm really confused! Does he lie then say: don't worry! I'm lying!

 

[Serilei]

Perfect, I have always wanted this, and I would say that krool and kaptain krool as an alternative outfit.

 

[Deleted member]

Face it; the economy would probably be better if K. Rool was President.

 

[jigglover]

He's got my vote, even though I'm not american and am unable to give it! What if I send the white house an E-mail?

Hey, I just made a rare interesting find on GameFAQs...granted, it was an article linked to GameFAQs, but I digress. It contains tidbits about Retro's new game, all of which are quite applicable to a DKCR sequel.

- Artist left Naughty Dog because he doesn’t enjoy working on realistic look games. Says Retro is a better fit for him.
- The lead artist of Epic Mickey is involved on this project.
- The game will have high quality hand painted 2D texture maps
- According to Monty Goulet’s YouTube video from his official YouTube channel, he finished working on Retro’s game on August 2012.
- A contract artist named Crystel Land started working on a Nintendo IP for Retro Studios on May 2012.
- The game will have ambient, environmental and weather effects.
- Not only will the game have enemies, but it will also have bosses.
- The game will have cinematic cutscenes.

Monty Goulet frequently lurked the GameFAQs DKCR boards during the game's development in 2010. In addition, this talk of atmosphere in combination with an "unrealistic" game seems to rule out all of the Star Fox/F-Zero/Metroid theories.

Let's hope that this is a DKCR2 project starring K. Rool back in his villain role. Hell, even if he's absent, the game will absolutely not introduce any characters more important than him to diminish his Smash prospects.

 

[BerryBomber]

I hope it involves K. Rool and the Kremlings. Im a bit uneducated about DKCR1, but I heard the main baddies are tikis or something like that. Does not sound right for a DK game :/

 

[8-peacock-8]

The Tikis were fine. Although, kremlins were better.

A game where anthropomorphized animals fly space ships is just as unrealistic as a game about an ape trying to reclaim his bananas.

But even F-Zero and Metroid are unrealistic compared to Uncharted and the Last of Us.

Let's hope that this is a DKCR2 project starring K. Rool back in his villain role. Hell, even if he's absent, the game will absolutely not introduce any characters more important than him to diminish his Smash prospects.

It definitely could be a DKCR2, but I think those points really don't easily single out any specific IP over another. The one that makes it sound most like it could be a DKCR game is hand-painted 2D texture maps, but only because it seems unlikely one of the other possible IPs would have that. Some of the points, like the cinematic cutscene one, IMO would hint more towards a different IP, but overall I think these points are still too vague to really make any solid guesses.

Personally I think, going by these points, that Retro's game could just as easily be Starfox or Metroid, though I'd be fine with any of the four usually speculated IPs (DK, Starfox, Metroid, F-Zero).

However if it does end up being DKCR2, I, like pretty much everyone else, hope the Kremlings make a return. I did not like the tikis.

 

[Deleted member]

Plot twist: K. Rool created the Tikis.

 

[Opossum]

It would be pretty cool if that was the actual plotline. Or an alliance between K. Rool and the Tikis. Seeing K. Rool in Polynesian garb would be interesting...

 

[Jhonnykiller45]

Perhaps it could be a Wario Land game ?

 

[8-peacock-8]

Or what if the Tikis were created by Captain Syrup who is working with King K Rool.

Donkey Kong Country X Wario Land ?
Do it Nintendo.

The Tikis were fine.

If you exclude the fact the final boss was generic as hell

 

[jigglover]

Plot twist: K. Rool created the Tikis.

What if K. Rool was actually turned into a Tiki by something, and since they made him over-powered with one thing on his mind (bananas) then DK, DK and DK all head out to help him and turn him back into the fat alligator for everyone but the tiki's sake.
