You bet it would. I don't need to tell anyone else as long as I know about it myself. Just me is fine.Tricky scenario:
If you were taken to see Sakurai and he told you that K. Rool was in development for smash, but he told you not to tell anyone.
would you keep you word?
Well we knew about but we didn't know if they changed Roy or what Ryu was going to look like and what they would do.That wasn't really a surprise, since we'd known they were coming since April.
I knew Roy was gonna be a Marth Clone with a couple changes and I knew Ryu was gonna have the Hadouken Netral B, Shoryuken Up B and Helicopter Kick thing as Side B. I don't think there was much to be surprised about.Well we knew about but we didn't know if they changed Roy or what Ryu was going to look like and what they would do.
I thought they wouldn't change Roy, but back to K Rool. I still want Kop K Rool.I knew Roy was gonna be a Marth Clone with a couple changes and I knew Ryu was gonna have the Hadouken Netral B, Shoryuken Up B and Helicopter Kick thing as Side B. I don't think there was much to be surprised about.
Different people could see it different ways, but I'll put it like this...if you were to hypothetically detach all character names from their exit poll results, and then ask people to describe the sorts of characters who are in the top one or two newcomer spots, what sorts of characters do you think they'd guess? A cartoon villain who "lol hasnt ben used since da 90s" or some "hip" muhrelevant character who all the little kids adore? An "obese crocodile" or some sexualized and/or anime "bad***" who spouts one-liners?The Kutthroats were underdogs? Someone care to give me a history lesson?
Well said.Different people could see it different ways, but I'll put it like this...if you were to hypothetically detach all character names from their exit poll results, and then ask people to describe the sorts of characters who are in the top one or two newcomer spots, what sorts of characters do you think they'd guess? A cartoon villain who "lol hasnt ben used since da 90s" or some "hip" muhrelevant character who all the little kids adore? An "obese crocodile" or some sexualized and/or anime "bad***" who spouts one-liners?
Also, imagine what would happen if no fans cared about K. Rool's absence or didn't see the potential he offers for Smash...all these exit polls would look mighty different. Heck, imagine if fewer fans cared...the split second some new character popped up in a new game, or some aspiring artist tossed out a fake third party leak, or some CEO transparently pimped his character on Twitter, he'd be hopelessly overcome.
The only reason the former is a reality and the latter is only a hypothetical is K. Rool's sheer volume of support. If anything can be called a grassroots underdog effort, that can.
Kombatant K. Rool.Hmm.
I can't shake the feeling that K. Rool could possibly go into a new "theme" for his Smash outing if he does join in.
Kind of like how he was intended to go into a aviator theme for Diddy Kong Pilot and how he went with an Egyptian theme for a game of baseball in Mario Super Sluggers.
I am rather keen on the idea of K. Rool being a pro wrestler, actually.Kombatant K. Rool.
More like Macho King K. Rool (RIP Macho Man Randy Savage)I am rather keen on the idea of K. Rool being a pro wrestler, actually.
Super Smashin' K. Rool.
.....or just Smashin' K. Rool.
...Or Smasher K. Rool.
Doesn't matter. The point of the name is to refer to it specifically being related to Smash while sounding like a ring name.
Macho Kroc K. Rool is better.More like Macho King K. Rool (RIP Macho Man Randy Savage)

I don't really kare. If it has to do with the Macho Man, I'm in.Macho Kroc K. Rool is better.
This does get annoying, and it's seen in a lot of the arguments against established yet snubbed characters like K.Rool, Ridley, or Wolf. I'm a bit put off by characters whose fanbases pop up overnight because of any (or all) of these reasons, and then I really hate to hear from their supporters why the villains are too old/irrelevant/edgy/big/whatever to be in the game, while their newfound darling is God's gift to Smash Brothers...Also, imagine what would happen if no fans cared about K. Rool's absence or didn't see the potential he offers for Smash...all these exit polls would look mighty different. Heck, imagine if fewer fans cared...the split second some new character popped up in a new game, or some aspiring artist tossed out a fake third party leak, or some CEO transparently pimped his character on Twitter, he'd be hopelessly overcome.
Captain America! I didn't know you had such strong feelings for smash bros!This does get annoying, and it's seen in a lot of the arguments against established yet snubbed characters like K.Rool, Ridley, or Wolf. I'm a bit put off by characters whose fanbases pop up overnight because of any (or all) of these reasons, and then I really hate to hear from their supporters why the villains are too old/irrelevant/edgy/big/whatever to be in the game, while their newfound darling is God's gift to Smash Brothers...
Sorry, this got a bit ranty. Apologies to any who do support these types of characters and who are not just bandwagoning, but I am a bit biased against third-parties on principle - I think that Nintendo has plenty of great, unexplored first-party characters, especially villains, who are passed over time and again since they're not kawaii. I'm fine with the third-party characters we have currently since each is a video game icon in his own right, but I personally think that Nintendo's perennial villains are more important to Nintendo than today's pop icons. Perhaps in a few years when these newbies become legends in their own rights, I will be more amenable to them. Now, however, I'd prefer the villains passed over since Melee to get in before the bandwagon brigade.
...particularly since we're now accused of bandwagoning ourselves now that we seem to be going strong...
I mean even if I said so, would anyone believe me?Tricky scenario:
If you were taken to see Sakurai and he told you that K. Rool was in development for smash, but he told you not to tell anyone.
would you keep you word?
No.
Because they're entirely different fighters that loosely fall in the same umbrella.
That's like saying had to compete with for a niche.
nothing can replace his old theme. Its so catchy!Hmm.
I can't shake the feeling that K. Rool could possibly go into a new "theme" for his Smash outing if he does join in.
Kind of like how he was intended to go into a aviator theme for Diddy Kong Pilot and how he went with an Egyptian theme for a game of baseball in Mario Super Sluggers.
But i rather have Wolf back tbh then lets sayAs Sakurai mentioned, it's all going to be fan service from now on. In short that basically means that he and the team will be only developing the most requested characters from the ballot, and to be fair I don't think Wolf is one of them. I've never understood why people view Wolf's return as almost a certainty, when he's very far from being one of the most requested characters. As far as I remember he wasn't even that popular in Brawl, at least not Lucas level. I respect other people's opinions, but I think most of us would rather like some newcomers emerging from that poll...
Also, isn't Isaac almost K.Rool level in popularity? I think he's got way more game than Wolf.
No one would believe you.I mean even if I said so, would anyone believe me?
How would you be able to spread it anyway? "Hey guys, I was taken to Sakurai and he told me that K. Rool is in development, but he told me to keep it a secret." sounds so hilariously tongue-in-cheek that no one would believe you. Even after his K. Rool gets revealed, most would pass it off as a joke.Tricky scenario:
If you were taken to see Sakurai and he told you that K. Rool was in development for smash, but he told you not to tell anyone.

I mean, I'd rather team up with the Isaac thread (I like Isaac more) but its seems cool.Copy/Paste from the Dixie Thread...Some users thought it was a good idea and @ Diddy Kong suggested that I post it over here as well
"Okay well since we know for sure that there will be AT LEAST 2 ballot slots then may I suggest an alliance? Okay hear me out and people can get mad at me for what im about to say but at this point its whatever here goes nothing.
Okay so the main issue is that PARTS (NOT EVERYBODY) of the DK fandom are somewhat divided (in other places). But I see this as a GRAND opportunity to truly unite (i mean people who were afraid to vote both) both "sides" (everywhere) and boost both K Rool's and Dixie's votes tremendously. Okay before people get pitch forks and let the hounds out let me explain.
There is not so much of it going on here on smash boards (I find that smash boards is a pretty cival and mature place to chat) but if you go to say gamefaqs or 4chan or a stranger from the outside looking in its whole other story...
With threads like "vote k rool and not Dixie" "vote Dixie because there only be 1 DK rep"
or post with stuff like "only vote *whoever* because we run the risk of one knocking the other out of the ballot" "characters are competing for 1 spot and only X is worthy" even in character write up on tumbler and other gaming news sites its always "x stands in the way of y" its hard at least to me to dispute that people do think this way. (And if anyone wants links to these as proof that im not pulling this out of my behind or putting false things out there then ill be more than happy to link these when I can get back to a cpu)
There are lots of people including myself that want and voted for BOTH. So if we look at this for a second...
There are definitely people who
A) voted both because they wanted both but on the flip side
B) want both but only voted 1 because they want X before/more than Y due to thinking there would only be 1 ballot spot.
Now that we know that there are at least 2 spots this could be a chance for
A) people to swap votes (vote for thier #2) with confidence that they are not hurting their #1's chances.
B) Stop the petty "side" battles that I see all around the web *cringe* and encourage the voting of BOTH great characters.
At that point we wouldn't be "stealing" votes/spotlight from character X or Y at that point we would be multiplying votes which I could see putting both characters to the super untouchable top of the list to ensure that they both get in.
The main issue to some is that they seem to have gotten the impression that one stands in the way of the other which I seriuosly dont think is the case at this point.
Like I said im not pointing fingers or trying to be negative here im just saying there are more votes to be had for both characters and for the DK fandom as a whole now that we know there isent just 1 ballot spot. Areas of interest would be trying to convince places like gamefaqs or other boards that aren't as understanding as this one that it is definitely not a war between the 2 characters. One is Not a threat to the other and its very possible that both can get in.
But do y'all think this is a good idea that we should try to run with? I just want to see both characters in and I think we could really team up and help eachother out at this point. If there are more votes to be had for both characters then lets go get them.
#DK Double?
Are there any negatives to this or a way this could backfire? Thoughts. I would think this could/should be a sealed deal since there are at least 2 ballot spots if we all work together (not saying that everybody was working aginst each other) just saying that having more than one ballot pick really brings a new perspective to this whole thing.
PLEASE NOTE: These statements that I have posted here are observations I have put together from other sites if you want the links or articles that made come to such conclusions please feel more than happy to request them. I promise none of this was spite or ill will im just trying to help both characters."
But this isn't the Dixie thread. Its the K Rool one. Our main focus is to get K Rool in Smash. For most of us, we'd rather see K Rool first, even if Dixie didn't take up that much time to make.But Dixie wouldn't take nearly as much time as many other characters, and her being -also- extremely popular, say like Roy's level before confirmation, I could see Sakurai adding in Dixie as an extra. And we need to vote for her NOW, as now would be an excellent time to upvote Dixie in the ballot so that Sakurai might actually give her a chance!
Yet you consider working with the Isaac supporters, but did you even play Golden Sun in the first place? I know I did, and I support Isaac as much as King K.Rool, almost. But it's just... weird some people would rather support a totally unrelated character than a character you as a K.Rool supporter should be more familiar with such as Dixie.But this isn't the Dixie thread.

This is the sort of attitude I was looking for all the time! Most of the times when Dixie is discussed here, people are more inclinded to be negative towards here. And that's terrible. I wish to go back to the days of when Diddy was just confirmed, and all the DKC fans felt satisfied and united in their support mostly for King K.Rool. Cause face it, we are the sole reason King K.Rool support stands so strong these days!I'm positive were going to see a ballot character before the August update. If K. Rool is revealed before then I promise that ALL of my voting attention will turn to Dixie. All I can say is that I have voted 4 times on my own on separate devices and my K. Rool and Dixie vote was 3-1 in K. Rools favor and I've done my voting until a character is revealed.

I own Dark Dawn... I support Isaac and K Rool because I like both characters. It doesn't matter if they aren't from the same franchise. Dixie is a meh for me.Yet you consider working with the Isaac supporters, but did you even play Golden Sun in the first place? I know I did, and I support Isaac as much as King K.Rool, almost.

Or the ESRB leak that robbed me of my Duck Hunt Dog hype. I had been supporting for the dog for over 12 years! Oh well, at least it proved the detractors wrong and I'm vindicated.Yeah. Not gonna ruin the surprise for anyone else *COUGH COUGH THE LEAKER THAT LEAKED RYU AND ROY RIGHT BEFORE SMASH DIRECT*
I agree that both K Rool and Dixie deserved to be in the base game.It shouldn't really be that I'm overly optimistic, it should be that 2 DKC newcomers should've been the standard in the first place. And that I wouldn't feel satisfied with just King K.Rool alone... Even though his revival could do great things for the DKC series alone. I still don't think it's fair representation for a series as Donkey Kong Country.
And expecting only Wolf and a ballot character (hopefully King K.Rool) wouldn't exactly help getting what we want... Especially since we got Roy and Ryu just out of the blue when we got Lucas in. Yes, 2 characters might be planned at this point. But we don't know what Sakurai will do with these ballot results. They might result in a couple of more DLC characters down the line. And I really, really hope Dixie will be one of these characters.
This scares me. I'd hoped the ballot was going to get us at least three characters and Wolf as a pre-make, but this makes too much sense to ignore. We do know about those two slots remaining, but if that's it for the ballot, we're looking at the last few characters now. I'd offer the argument that 'several' usaully means more than two (I'd put it at at least four), but I know that that argument holds no water whatsoever since it's vague and could be a translation error.Diddy Kong, I think you're being overly optimistic if you think we can get both DK newcomers in. Based on everything PushDustIn has translated, and the 5 slots found in the data, I am of the opinion that there are 2 spaces left. Realistically I see Wolf taking one of those spaces (and any time saving arguments in Dixie's favour can equally be applied here) so I am treating the ballot as if there is one space remaining to be taken. King K Rool is the character I want for that spot for a plethora of reasons discussed to death over the course of this thread and I will not vote anyone else until he has appeared.
(This said, if he does appear early my votes will probably then go to Isaac as his success in the ballot could well get his series a future iteration, something I don't think Dixie needs to be worried about.)
