To celebrate, I wanted to post this fanart I found today that is one of my favorite renditions of K. Rool's klassik design (source):



If Sakurai was to base him exclusively on Rare's games, this would be the way to go. Might be good to add to the fanart section.

How did you know that you're post was going to be the first of this page?!
Are you a wizard?!

Wait for someone giving me a rationnal and sensed explication.
There are 40 posts per page. I counted them and then posted. I didn't wait or re-load either, as it just so happened that the 799th page had 40 posts when I logged on.

Pff! That's exactly what a wizard would say to cover the Illuminatis!

Where da tail at doe.
Where it at doe.

btw K. Rool should have the gem thing on his cape and lighter skin. I like a mixture of both companies design on him and I never really liked the dark green on K Rool.

In the ballot I always write "King K. Rool" and the "Donkey Kong Country series". I like to point out that he has appeared in multiple games each with a different disguise, to show his enormous moveset potential.

I used to prefer the light skin but recently I've come around to the dark skin. I agree though that the gem and tail are musts.

If King K Rool gets in, both shades of green will probably be playable. Seems like too easy a piece of fanservice to miss out really.

800th page, sweet, though have to say, K.Rool is an obvious popularity pick, and that I wouldn't be surprised if we got a European, NA, Japanese, and Global pick, seems like that obvious way it will start at least

You know what?.. I actually got stuck with the thought of someone reporting here someday, saying that "some employee" of NoA said that Shovel Knight was a fan-favorite among the company; (that's before Roy and Ryu be confirmed).. and there was no word on K. Rool..
Not that exactly I think we aren't getting K. Rool by this (and not even that we're getting Shovel Knight by the same reason).. was something really vague and hard to believe,.. but you know, could make sense (but NoA doesn't reflect Nintendo in Japan, or Sakurai's decision). I just fear how many vacancies we have for characters coming from the Ballot, and what are the ones that Nintendo thinks are pertinent (aka worthy of asking money by them).
I think nintendo at this moment has to at least be aware of how popular king k rool is now. He's pretty much everywhere and to be honest, he is probably the biggest character that nintendo owns right now that people actually want to see. Maybe shovel knight might come in but Nintendo would be stupid to ignore King k Rool. After all, it is fan service

As the OP of this thread has mentioned, K. Rool was noted as a popular request in Sakurai's Brawl journal so he definitely knows people want him. I agree with the sentiment someone posted earlier that with K. Rool's recent absences, Sakurai might have just assumed interest in him waned by Smash 4, but now we have a chance to prove him wrong.

Mark Stevenson tweeted the KremlingKampaign on twitter a DK related photo, he's one of the former classic Rare reps who worked on all three original DKC games and DK64. He's also one of the members with Playtonic. Retro Studios and Playtonic are following eachother on twitter as well. This is actually a good thing for us Kutthroats and K. Rool.

All the reasons why king k rool should be DLC. If the kremlins are in the game, then why can't K Rool?

How was this screenshot taken? :crazy: You can't move the camera in Smash Run, nor does this appear to be a screenshot from that mode.

The misspelling of Kremling is why we need Kommunist K Rool.
This would be a bonus if Kremlings would do it:

I believe this is from the Enemy Smash section in Smashrun. It only happens at times in the Final Round after 5 minutes are up

Presumably it's from the enemy rush that can happen after the Smash Run timer ends, which takes place on a standard battlefield and could allow for normal camera positioning.

Found this little vid on youtube, I'm sure most of everyone has heard of the game Five Nights At Freddy's right?

That video makes me think: What would your guys' solution be for dealing with K. Rool's crown throw if he's wearing Kaptain and Baron alts?

You could probably make the Kaptain hat big enough that his hand could clip through it and just throw the crown from inside the head, but I'm at a loss for how to deal with Baron.

have him throw a round sharp gizmo from his pocket or something, that could work.

I just watched the comments under Mario Kart 8, where the Lets Player said that he will be disapointed if K Rool does not win the Ballot, the comments were ridiciulous.
For example: "K. Rool for Smash... I get sick every time i hear it because his supporters will definetly end up whining that he will be useless online"
I replied: I get sick everytime i see a Rool hater
Then he called me THE hater and that i am an useless m*therf*cker.
WTF i did not know that people can escalate THAT quickly!

The first problem is the YT comments section. It ain't civil.

Ahoy fellow Kutthroats!

It's been a long time since I've last posted here but my support for King K. Rool is still going strong.

Fantastic job on reaching 800 pages.

His chances of getting into the game are very high and it'll be a glorious day if/when he finally gets konfirmed.

Page 567 is when news of the ballot dropped. We just passed the halfway mark. We can definitely reach a thousand before the ballot closes. Let's do it!
