Pomfrod: Yeah- I was thinking that the small dudes wouldn't clog things because only a certain number of them would be able to appear at a time, and one of their main functions would be to be sucked up and aimed as projectiles instead of actually wandering around. Also, since they could get killed fairly easily by other players, I don't think clutter would actually be an issue... rather, if anything, it'd be a strategy to annoy the opponents since they'd have to divert some of their attacks to underlings.
Heh- I'd say the penguin slide was inspired by... well, every appearance of penguins ever. I believe real penguins slide on their stomachs as well... but I guess Mario 64 would be the most memorable of the video game appearances. I hated them in ALttP.
I was kind of reaching for the Down B, since I haven't played all the kirby games with Dedede. I did remember the hip drop move... but that's just such a generic move now, as you said. One thing that could be different is that the stars created on both sides could be used as items if you're really quick, and could be sucked up and shot out like the enemies.
I never played the game where he steams up, but that does sound like an interesting trade off- great time for him to get knocked off an edge if he can't use his recovery, though he still can jump a lot I guess.
