I actually expected the Brawl characters to be close with King K. Rool, not be surpassed by a relatively large margin. The fact that so far, K. Rool is the most wanted character for DLC is highly impressive, especially when considering that he's been gone for over six years.
I'm happy with K. Rool and Isaac's position, though the Ice Climbers, Snake, Wolf and Lucas being so high is not something to brush over. All of these characters did well and all of these characters are winners.

I don't believe K. Rool has ever been dethroned from the most wanted character in that poll since it started. Wolf always comes close, but K. Rool still beats him by a couple of votes.

I would be curious about polling places besides SmashBoards with a similar list of characters to see how well he fares.

I think we should consider that many who vote for k rool may also vote for wolf considering both actually have a somewhat similar position and both are badass villains

I'd say it's more that people don't want something very unrealistic. Ridley is not a poll option, for example.
Isn't that what I just said, but worded differently?

I think this is something that we need to take into account when discussing character's popularity. It's great that K. Rool is among the most wanted on this forum, but can we say the same for other sites? Plus it'd help if we would try to advertise this poll on social media; Twitter, Facebook, etc.

Reminds me of when the Ridley and King K. Rool group were like friends to an extent. Both are the main antagonist of their respective franchise and both are very highly requested characters.

I'm not necessarily an advocate that the game needs a whole lot of villains like some people (partially because Nintendo's rogues gallery only has a handful of notable, recurring baddies), but K. Rool and Ridley are definitely major oversights (and I would argue they're the only significant Nintendo all-stars at this point who have not been added to the game, except maybe Dixie).

If we got those guys both in Smash, then I could feel better rallying for, say... Hades or Waluigi. I don't think Porky, Samurai Goroh and Ghirahim are ever in the grasp of reality, unfortunately.

i would honestly prefer black shadow to take ganondorfs moveset. i think samurai goroh is ok being an assist trophy and to give ganon a moveset based on ocorina of time or something.

Black Shadow taking the Falcondorf moveset just seems like trying to fix a big problem with a small solution. Samurai Goroh is the second most important F-Zero character, and actually has something to distinguish himself by. Black Shadow as Falcondorf would be fine, but not at the expense of Samurai Goroh playable.

Really, the Falcondorf moveset shouldn't be a required thing. Sakurai has had no problem dropping plenty of clones before, but he's still stuck on Ganondorf having the same moveset.

Not that any of it really matters because F-Zero is six feet under, but hey.

I'd Honest Prefer Falcondorf wasn't a thing at all, Ganondorf has so many options for a move set other Than that, If Sakurai really want to keep it though, I really wish he'd given it to Black Shadow Instead of making Ganondorf Suffer, I mean hell look at Crusade, In that He has A great move set that isnt a Slow Shadow Falcon.

I've been trying to come up with a DLC pun for K. Rool ever since I sat the DeeDLC thing on the Bandana Dee Thread.

Edit: please excuse the Grammer problems, writing this on a Spell check phone that has no clue how to spell check.

DLK could work, since it could stand for both Downloadable Kontent and Downloadable Kong.

Edit: And Kroc, I suppose.

So far the only DKC game I haven't played is Tropical Freeze, due to my persistent lack of a Wii U. Well, and the Land games, I suppose. But I've played DKC 1, 2, and 3 as well as 64 and Returns. I grew up with DKC, and always thought K. Rool was amazing. Intimidating, even. Even as a young child I could sense the insanity that the King radiated, and he's always been my favorite villain.

I didn't mean for this to get that long. I guess I just felt like typing up a bit of a paragraph about DKC? lol

Donkey Kong's cartoon voice actor, Richard Yearwood, has just tweeted the #BringBackKRool movement unsolicited, asking how he can help out and wishing us a happy Halloween. I've asked him to follow the account so I can message him a proposal that I think would go over quite well relating to reaching out to new supporters.

King K. Roll does not earn the right to be side on side with the other Nintendo-Villains like Bowser, Ganondorf and Ridley. He was a Rareware creation and not one of Nintendo's characters. even Nintendo sees that. That why they do not use him and his minions anymore.

Click on his profile and look to the right of his name. You'll see "Ignore" and "Follow" buttons. Click on "Ignore," it'll do wonders. Rattle-Kalimba literally has only posted in this thread, and only to bash on K. Rool and the Kremlings.

I just say, if Nintendo doesn't care about him, why should you do? If he really was such a must have for SSB, than he would be in. But his not. You will see, you all will be upset again, when he is not a DLC-Character. And I'm pretty sure, he won't be. Juts give up and give your whole love and support popular characters like Rosalina, Palutena, Miis and more.

"Juts give up your love and support popular characters like Rosalina, Palutena, Miis and more."
1. Why provide support for characters that are already in?
2. "support popular characters" "popular characters" "popular" King K. Rool is a popular character, if he wasn't he wouldn't be one of the most requested for SSB and people wouldn't even ask for his to return to the DK series and even though King K. Rool went missing for quite a while he is still known to this day.
3. Nintendo of America reps do care about King K. Rool, Nintendo of Japan just may not know that people still care about him and our voices just need to be heard by them, the only person who probably legitimately doesn't care about the Kremlings is Shigeru Miyamoto.
4. Even if K. Rool doesn't end up DLC this time around the support will still continue until he reappears in the next installment of SSB as playable rather than a trophy.
5. Do you really expect passionate fans to give up based on your little remarks? Why continue? (Rhetorical question, you're a troll.)
6. Reply, I don't care, your comment will just be ignored.

Rattle-Kalimba, you should just do yourself a favor and leave this thread. You're not doing yourself any good whatsoever here. We don't need your negativity here. (Even though I already have you on ignore)

Are you going to try to reach out to the voice of the King himself in the show, Benedict Campbell? Or maybe you've done so already.

I haven't even noticed Rattle Kalimba posting in this thread because I've blocked him.

Suggestion for the OP to say "block Rattle Kalimba before reading the thread."

Rattle, King K Rool is overwhelmingly loved in Nintendo of America, Japan also has no flippin' idea what to do with Donkey Kong anymore, while America obviously does. This doesn't mean however that Western Characters are ignored *Cough*LittleMac*cough*. KKR is now THE most supported character in the world right now that isn't in the game.

That is just ridiculous, I knew Nintendo had implemented a feature like that on "for glory" supposedly for people that ragequit. I had no idea it would be for a time period like that, is sakurai really trying to lose his fan base, cuz that's a good way to for the wrong reason.
