Diddy Kong = Lefou

Cranky Kong = Maurice

Rosalina = The enchantress

R.O.B. = Cogsworth

Marth = Lumiere

Epona = Philippe


Yeah I put WAY too much thought into this...

My mock up of what the final roster could look like. I reduced the character selection boxes to 70% of the size of the demo ones. And I kept characters in order in which they appeared in the demo screen, and filled in the gaps. It all fits pretty much perfectly actually.

Aren't you the guy whose gimmick on GameFAQs is saying that Chrom has no chance? What shifted?

(I was responding to stupidity with stupidity, people saying he was confirmed, I was responding with an equal stupid comment that he had no chance), I frequently said I couldn't really care less if he was in or not.

It's probably one of the better mockups I've seen, but realistically, I would probably get rid of Ivy/Squirtle and give the Mii (those evil, evil Miis) 2 extra slots. Maybe axe Lucas too for an even fifty or fill him in with Mewtwo or something.

I'd be disappointed because of no Mewtwo/Snake, but it has Rool so I'll take it.

Mii is confirmed to be in its own slot, and may even replace the "Random" slot on the roster. This part is unconfirmed, though, but supposedly it was mentioned in the Treehouse and a couple of people have brought it up. Even if it doesn't replace the Random slot, they are clearly in their own slot regardless.

I'd find it surprising if Mii's got 3 slots actually.

Problem is, Andross has never HAD a full body EVER. He's only ever been a head and hands. That's what makes Wolf the designated villain rep from Star Fox.
But he has one, just that we never saw it, only his face. And again, Star Fox U is coming, so who knows if we will see a full-body Andross then. I have nothing against Wolf, in fact, I prefer him over Falco, but the true Star Fox villain is Andross, and I think he has gained the right to occupy a place in Smash instead of just that white virtual face which doesn't resemble him at all.

Nooo, please, just no... Speaking about Miis, I think I read they cannot be used in online matches. SO WHAT'S THE POINT SAKURAI?

They can't be used online again random people. But it sounds like not only are Mii's in one slot, they are toggled via a button on the menu screen and replace the Random button. That said, this isn't confirmed yet, so keep it in mind.

The point of Mii's is for a custom character creator type of thing. Its not as detailed as the character creators in like Soul Calibur, but its still a neat time waster for people who want to do that.

The Treehouse guys said "the Mii would take up a single tile," so whether that means as part of the regular roster or off to the side (both of which have happened in recent games), we'll have to find out.

Awesome write-up!!! I for one, would love to see K Rool in Smash Bros. I also would love to see him in the next Donkey Kong game.... maybe we'll at least get one of those things.

I'm really thinking K. Rool and the Kremling Krew will be back in the next DKC game. They've been requested so much to be brought back and there's so many new themes they could explore with the Kremlings as well. I'd love to see more of K. Rool's quirky personalities. :D

And it would be such an epic return of K.Rool and the Kremlings. The highlight of the Retrostudios DKC triology would without a doubt be the third game(or the sixth of the whole DKC series). I mean the lovely levels created by Retrostudios, supported by David Wise music and the reappearance of the Kremlings is almost awesome right from the beginning!

Yes, totally. People say that Nintendo hates the Kremlings, but I don't understand that logic otherwise they wouldn't have used the Kremlings in either Smash Bros., Super Sluggers, or Strikers. I think Nintendo just didn't want to jump back in and use the Kremlings right away in the DKC revival, that's all.

So I've been doing some thinking about a hypothetical K. Rool reveal trailer, and I've thought of something that I think could be fitting and funny at the same time. A grand entrance befitting the King.
*flash Smash logo*
*fwoooo~flames burning*
It starts with a full-screen recording of a basic four-person match in Smash 64. The fighters consist of Mario, Yoshi, DK, and Samus on Kongo Jungle. The match is shown for a good four or five seconds before it starts glitching up and changes to static. It then zooms out of full-screen and then changes to a match in Melee consisting of Donkey Kong, Bowser, Ganondorf, and Mewtwo on Jungle Japes, during which the camera zooms out revealing that the match is being displayed on a small TV. It zooms out further showing a single armrest of a metal seat. A hand, too dark to make out exactly whose it may be, is seen impatiently tapping its fingers in a wave-like rhythm. The screen then cuts to static again, and then fades into a Brawl match between Bowser, Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, and King Dedede on Rumble Falls. The hand then slowly scrapes its fingers against the armrest, as if holding back incredible rage. The screen cuts to static again, and then shows a Smash4Wii-U match again between Bowser, Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, and Dedede on Battlefield. The hand then clumps into a fists and violently pounds on the armrest. Another hand then pops up from off-screen, holding a letter. The hand on the armrest takes it and brings it closer to the camera, bringing the Smash logo into focus.
Cut to Bowser, DK, Diddy, and Dedede fighting on the "Final Destination" Battlefield. It shows them fighting for a good few seconds before the sound of many spinning helicopter blades fade in. After it gets noticeably loud, the four fighters cease fighting and look up to the sky.
The Flying Crock, high in the sky, gets closer and closer to the battlefield. It stops and then a giant platform begins descending from the underside of the Flying Crock. The platform stops lowering, and then an overhead view reveals it to be a huge symphony orchestra. A kritter in a tuxedo is the conductor, and various kinds of kremlings make up the players. The konductor taps on the sheet music holder a few times and begins conducting. Cue an orchestrated rendition of the King Krusha K. Rool introduction theme! The crocodile head front of the Flying Crock begins raising its upper "jaw." The fighters look dumbstruck. The jaw finishes raising and, from afar, a figure is seen standing one the edge of the lower "jaw." Cut to the top of a big golden crown. Cut again to a flowing, red cape. Cut one more time to the blunderbuss, held in one hand, is lowered into the other hand. And then zoom out revealing King K. Rool's whole torso and head.
"KING K. ROOL
Krashes the Battle!"
Cue montage with remix of your favorite K. Rool battle theme playing.

K. Rool would of course put in the effort to make a huge, dramatic entrance! :p
Make this reveal trailer happen! XD

If DK doesn't get at least three reps I'll honestly be pretty pissed off. DK has gotten so little love compared to comparatively smaller franchises like Fire Emblem, Star Fox and even Kirby, despite being Nintendo's fourth best-selling franchise.

I'm normally not very bothered by what characters do or do not get in, and the lack of K. Rool in and of itself isn't really a game-breaker for me. But it would just be really disappointing for Donkey Kong to get left out like that.

See, I have no problem with a roster of about 45-47, its a good large roster. The only problem I have is the notion that DK doesn't get a third rep. I find that completely ridiculous, especially since most of these other franchises don't have anything going for them. DK is a huge franchise, it deserves at least 3 reps, perhaps even 4.

Not to get slightly off subject but how would you guys feel if K. Rool came back as "Kaptain" K. Rool in the next DKCR game and fought with the snomads while trying to take out the Kongs at the same time? I can just picture those two ships firing at eachother trying to blow the other out of the water.

On the other side of E3...things aren't looking so good, so excuse my Chorus Kids pic below. Still, if we are to believe the other Gematsu leaks, it is probably safe to believe the DLC comments. So we need to keep talking about/requesting K. Rool regardless of whether or not he makes it into the shipped game.

Me

"King K. Rool joins the fight". I don't speak/write Japanese so excuse the bad bad bad Japanese writing.

"Palutena! . . . ?" alights! I'm so glad she's in, aren't you?


リック


A modern day Romeo & Juliet.


へっぽこさん

Something about King K. Rool not being pleased with the Snowmads.

Doug

Kaptain K. Rool takes an apparently naked Donkey Kong. Diddy objects, mostly to the nudity.


Posted in the DKC TF miiverse section. I think it should be crocodile season in Smash Bros., too.

Wow, nice Miiverse pics. I made two or 3 myself.

And screw DLC, The K-ster should be in the final roster regardless. :p

In regards to the Kremlings appearing in Smash Run, I don't think the Kremlings themselves appearing is near as interesting as the fact that the Tikis appear as well, instead of the Snowmads. The Kremlings appearing can be attributed to their history with the DK franchise, but the Tikis don't have that or the relevance of the Snowmads. There's no real reason they would actually include the Tikis over the Snowmads beyond just not knowing the Snowmads were a thing.

Nah, if anything, he'd probably have a new persona.

I'm not so sure I can agree with this one. Trying to force your subjects to die of starvation and separating innocent families seem pretty darn cruel to me. At least Peach invites her Toads to join her in her parties...

...oh...

Yep, Peach is Krooler than K. Rool.

I dunno. Dedede is kind of a **** but is more or less a good guy, Bowser follows some sort of honour code and generally shows some level of respect towards Mario, and while Ganondorf is definitely evil he's never been shown to be outright cruel so much as just ruthless and willing to do whatever it takes to reach is goals.

Meanwhile K. Rool has been shown beating Donkey Kong pretty much for ****s and giggles. His goals are petty but if anything that just makes the lengths he'll go to meet them even worse. Trampling over a mountain of corpses for ultimate power is one thing, but doing it for a hoard of bananas...

I don't necessarily agree, I just copied the banner over,

Also, these have started popping up on GameFAQs as a product of us STILL not having any bloody Chunky footage.
