Might feel a bit disjointed.

Anyways, congrats on reaching 200 pages. We're still ways before the thread is Ridley-sized though. :p
But then the thread would be to big for this site :p

Why focus on one identity when you can have them all. Gratz on 200, here's to 200 more.

It would be a cool concept, but I rather have K. Rool be in his regular King persona while his other personas are represented in his moveset.
Same thing here actually. But I wouldn't oppose such an idea either.

If K.Rool gets a new identity in this game I want him to be a lawyer.

So he can sue Nintendo for using the Kremlings.

I actually had a dream last night of K. Rool in Smash.
It was weird, for some reason he wasn't King, Kaptain, or even Baron.
He was just "K. Rool", and he looked like this


But with silver armor instead of gold, no feather, gems, or cape.


Actually, that was a fake debunk. The position of Mario's head in the "admitted fake" is vastly different in the leak. Therefore, that leak is still alive.
Lol.

A while ago, I had a dream where I had gotten hold of a copy of the 3DS version of the game. The roster included King K.Rool, but I took my sweet time trying out every other character, saving the best for last (Wtf? In reality, I'd play as him ASAP).

When I finally selected K.Rool on the character selection screen all ready to go, I woke up. :smash:

Lol.
Konquistador K. Rool? 10/10 would bang main.

NOW I remember what the appearance reminded me of.
A paladin. K. Rool was a paladin.


Which confused me since....paladins serve kings, and K. Rool is a king....

....maybe he demoted himself over frustration of being bested by the Kongs?

K. Rool is in no way a paladin. You should have quit while you're ahead with the Konquistador.

Again, I never said it was a Konquistador.
Just that the image is the closest thing I could find to how K. Rool looked in my dream, minus the gems, cape, and feather, and with silver armor instead of gold.
Which is essentially describing a paladin.

My brain cannot fathom Krusader K. Rool.

Or maybe he's just narcissistic enough to devote himself to himself

Is it me or does K. Rool look awesome in pretty much any gimmick? Another reason why the Kremlings will always be the best DK enemies.

My issue is, the roster wasn't having these issues in March when this leak came out. That's WAY too far into development for people to have been unsure of what the roster consists of like 25 months into development.
It's likely that late cuts have happened in Smash before; see Mewtwo and Roy (there's a theory suggesting that Sonic got in at the cost of both of them).

Okay, I seriously want a Konquistador persona for K. Rool now. It has to happen when he finally returns to the DK series. King Kortés?

I would imagine that he would be one of the slowest characters in the game. Also very heavy, but less so than Bowser.
I imagine K.Rool heavier than Bowser, easily. Donkey Kong himself already rivals Bowser's weight. And K.Rool is several weight classes above Donkey Kong. It's easy logic that K.Rool should be the heaviest character in the game, unless say, Beast Ganon makes it in. He might not be as brutishly strong as Bowser however. Not that weight should matter with that most, cause Ganondorf and Ike are lighter yet stronger than DK and Bowser.

I can see King K. Rool be heavier than Donkey Kong, but lighter than Bowser. I say that his power would depend on if he is going to be a physical fighter if he uses a weapon. He is definitely going to be a heavy hitter, however.

It's pretty much a guarantee that he'd be heavier than DK, which places him firmly as either second heaviest, tied for heaviest, or outright heaviest. Personally, I'd go whole hog and give K. Rool the distinction of being the new heaviest. It'd be another way to set him apart from the pack, and would also give a reality check to the people who consider Bowser the ultimate barometer for Smash heavyweightery...as in, no one can possibly(*) be heavier than Bowser, let alone bigger than him.

* = For the same "reason" Pokemon characters cannot possibly occupy a single space more than Mario characters on the CSS.

Also, @ CyberWolfBia CyberWolfBia , didn't notice this earlier, but go ahead and use the logo. I look forward to seeing what you do with it.

It'd be interesting to see characters get bigger and heavier in this game, that's for sure.

I can't believe I missed my fav Nintendo character's 200th page. D:

Go K. Rool. Fingers crossed for E3.

Mark me as a supporter as well! A bit unrelated, but I sooo wish that Rare would sell the rights of K. Rool and the Kremlings to Retro Studios.

Nintendo owns the rights to King K. Rool and the Kremlings. If they didn't, we wouldn't be discussing King K. Rool right now.

I think one of the more promising things for K. Rool's likelihood is the fact that of all the newcomers we don't have a heavyweight yet. And of the Gematsu leak, none of them seem like they would be heavyweights either. A new Smash game without a heavyweight has never happened before. Sooooooooo, K. Rool? :awesome:

Something that crossed my mind- could it be that one reason for the changes to Bowser is that we are getting K Rool and they didn't want them to be too similar?

That's an incomplete GIF. This is the full version.



I'm planning on going through the thread for updates this weekend, so everyone who's been asking to join the Kutthroat list will get their wish then.

In light of this, now would probably be a good time to point out that the Miiverse drawing "Put in a good word for me..." in the OP is something I did. It's not an anonymous piece.

Also, I'm serious about that Konquistador idea, guys. I could imagine the Kremlings returning to DK Island and setting up base in the Golden Temple, to mirror the Spanish capture of Tenochtitlan and the legends of El Dorado, the city of gold. Kremlings would take on personas reminiscent of conquistadores and Aztec knights.

Alternatively they could have a military-themed Kremling Krew. They would have a Nazy and an Air Force and everything.

I've been gone for over a week, and K. Rool's Be Prepared song by BKupa is still stuck in my head.

Please let him be at E3 so I can be put out of my misery.
