So since everyone is sharing their opinions I feel obligated to share my own. I usually every single day set a bookmark on chrome of that last page I read of this forum page so the next morning I can read through. Last night I was awake when all the news dropped and I never did actually read the forum last night. (I'm glad I didn't no way I would have slept) I set my bookmark to page 865, only to wake up the next morning to pg 890 being the latest page. That sparked some alarm, either something amazing happened or something bad, in this case more towards a negative thing. I legitimately felt defeated, destroyed, and cheated when I opened the link to the twitter post to reveal the Mii outfit. The when looking through the post following I only got more down, seeing as all these wonderful supporters jumped ship. I started to get down, feeling that things were over. I just a few moment ago finished reading through every post to catch up on things, and have come to my own opinion finally. Here it goes:
I believe STILL that King K. Rool will be a playable character. As a very loyal fan and huge supporter of this character I honestly would have rather Sakurai have just shown the results of the poll and just say, sorry he didn't make the cut rather than throw this taunting costume in my face. Now that's just my opinion, and honestly I'm quite fond of the costume it looks like a lot of work was put into it, and stands out to me. I'm not fond with excepting the fact that,"King K. Rool is "playable" in the game now!" Sakurai is a troll but I can't see him doing this and going, "Well there ya have it, K Rool is in the game!" He just couldn't do this to us, I would have rather just been notified by them saying sorry it's a no-go. This is all a ruse to announce him is what I believe. Why would they jsut out of the blue make him, a "forgotten" character not seen in a game for 7 years a Mii fighter costume. It's to trick us all and really hype us up over our character. Do I 100% believe he's a shoe-in? Not at all, I feel that the best chance he has is in the next direct. If they have a direct to announce the out-fits and stages, and tourneys then that's where K Rool will storm in and destroy that mii costume. If he's not revealed in the very next direct, I believe his shots of making it in are pretty low. Like I said these are all just opinions and speculations. I could be and may be 100% incorrect, but I just have this gut feeling. Please Kutthroats don't stray away just yet, just have some faith and maybe just maybe our King makes it in. Could you imagine the announcement trailer for K Rool, I might die, after all I've just been through.
Ok well, thats my two cents, have a good one guys! Please stay LOYAL!
