Congrats everyone, you guys got it much better than Ridley fans.

Still supporting the Kremling King!

Kritters gives me hope for King K. Rool, and... Even tho it was sad what happened to Ridley.. it made up for my loss of Samurai Goroh to keep me happy ! And when I saw Kritter it boosted yet again !

Finally, we get to see the Kremlings (side by side with Tikis). My heartfelt congratulations, fellow kutthroats!

Ridley is practically disconfirmed. Same goes for Squirtle and Ivysaur, and with Greninja in as well, I'm betting it's either Mewtwo or Jiggs at this point.

Newcomer-wise: The best part of the Direct is that the Kremlings are back as enemies. K. Rool is almost certainly in at this point. In term of chance, I think he's currently the most likely newcomer, along with Palutena.

But seeing what happened to Ridley and all, I'd rather NOT see a Gangplank Galleon stage at this point...

We got one victory for the two major villains. We got one victory. Hopefully this keeps up.

ALSO FOR FANS OF BOTH DONT GIVE UP ON RIDLEY JUST YET!!!
I'm not the only thing that will commence me that he's deconfirm is that theres a Potd with him in it and now newcomer box of him

I'm so glad the kremlings are in this that gives king k rool a 64 percent chance of getting in now

Well, congratulations. I think the Kritters are, obviously, a great sign for K. Rool. With their inclusion in the game, it means Sakurai is looking at those Donkey Kong games that K. Rool appeared in. The recency argument just took a major blow. At this point, I think that K. Rool's positives far outshine his negatives.

...I can't exactly feel happy about this right now though...

With Saki being disconfirmed, and Ridley, Squirtle, Ivysaur, and (maybe) Mewtwo possibly following suit, seeing the Kremlings in this video was one of the few things that gave me something new to look forward to as far as characters are concerned. Here's hoping that K. Rool becomes playable!

I feel great about K. Rool's chances now. Take that, detractors. ;) Kremlings = Nintendo! Relevance means squat.

Only K Rool and Palutena had their hopes increase, everyone else was neutral (no Star Fox so Krystal's in the running), toubled, (4 Pokemon spells tough times for Mewtwo) or plain atrophied (see what I did there?)

Let's role-play, shall we? This is the K. Rool thread, after all.

"Durr hurr, the Kremlings are only there because they're reusing assets. They're still irrelevant!"

Haven't actually seen that come up yet, but it's only a matter of time.

Screw Ridley, I think I'm one of the happiest people on earth!

...BUT K. ROOL WASN'T THE NEWCOMER...

Today was a good day. We got Kremlings, and even got Jungle Japes back.

Although, with all that Ridley boss trolling, I can't shake the feeling K. Rool might be a stage boss.

Oh who am I kidding, K. ROOL HAS A CHANCE YET!

I love the new title for this thread. It just feels so righteous to see the "Kritters are owned by Rare" people start eating their words.

King K. Rool and Palutena's chances are looking great!

DK gets his DKC roll and now this. I'm happy as a DKC fan right now.

I can't be the only one who thinks the lack of a new DK stage is kind of suspicious. Possible Gangplank Galleon that they didn't want to show too early?

I'm pulling for you K. Rool fans! I'd love to see him as a playable character and not just a mere Adventure Mode boss!

B-B-BUT THE RELEVANCY!

K. Rool guaranteed to be in the game in some form now. Just a question of playable, boss or assist. I know what I'm betting on.

Random guy: "K. Rool won't be playable. He wouldn't fight his own minions you doofuses."

Guy who actually knows what he's talking about: "Really now? It's not a problem for Bowser."

I just know that something stupid like that will turn up at some point...

It's a bit suspicious... especially when the 3DS version has Jungle Japes.
All of these little things help King K. Rool in his favor. I think that it's possible that we will see him at E3.

Seeing the Kremlings actually made me happy. I mean, I'm deeply troubled by the thought of the ill-fate my other favorite reptilian leader could be facing... but he isn't in my sig, now is he?

One small obvious tidbit from the direct is that K. Rool will not be using the Kremlings as minions.

Not that I thought he would have or needs them, but that was one option people thought was possible. Even Dedede lost the Waddle Dees as walkabout minions, it seems like Sakurai is tightening up the gameplay in general to be less campy.

Its nice to see the kremlings back, at least one of our reptilian villains still has a good chance.

Hey, did anyone else notice that they gave DK his DKC roll in the trailer?

Not exactly related to K. Rool, but it's something.

One detail of intrigue...he didn't mention the Kritters by name in his little role call of the enemies present, yet they were clearly featured there as one of the first two enemies seen for the mode.

King K Rool is one of the few characters that come off ahead from all this. Only really Palutena and him benefited.

Kritterrrrrrsssss, HALT!!!

How excited I was to see them! This shows that the Kremlings have not only been remembered, but have also been lingering in Sakurai's head.

On a slightly more off-topic note though, did anyone else notice Diddy's art in some instances was Brawl's? I also noticed that they didn't do a blurb about him and the changes in action like the other veterans... Could this mean that Dixie could still be hiding in the dark to one day tag with Diddy?

In terms of King K. Rool himself, I think that, if he gets in, E3 is going to be where we see him if you ask me.
