New Kirby Hats Speculation

Oh ok, I thought Smashboards blew up again.

Real talk, D-air is amazing on Kirby. You can use it to lead into a smash attack, spike, and even follow up that spike with a footstool jump :troll:.
Yes I know, I wish it had some stun though because someone can easily get out of it plus the fact that not all of it will hit because of DI. And the start up is slow at first. and it lags at the end or knocks the person away with the final hitbox that prevents you from combing with it. It needs work, I didn't like the brawl version at all. Give it a bit of 64 and it should be good to go.
Not if in a shocking twist, Kirby's standard attacks are altered too. But that might be asking for too much, as that would mean making way more Kirby animations than what a character actually needs.

Maybe Kirby will just copy the special moves instead? It would be nice to see Kirby utilize Link's Boomerang again.
It'll just be the B special. I wish that he could copy more but realistically that's what kirby's gonna get. I wanna see him be OP though, so I'd welcome him copying side specials too :troll:

I agree that making all those alterations may be too much more trouble than it's worth (especially considering it's only for one copy ability out of like 35+ others).

Also, not to continuously be a downer, but I don't think the "copying all/multiple special moves" idea would work out too well. There are just some special moves Kirby shouldn't have access to, such as Bowser's/Ganondorf's suicide special. Those examples even consider copying just the B and Side-B specials, as those seem to be Rosalina's main moves (B and Side-B) for controlling the Luma.

Also, in case this were to be brought up, it'd be really awkward if Rosalina was the only character whom Kirby copied numerous specials from (to prevent him from gaining access to moves that could overpower him).

It would better reference Kirby's ability to copy his opponents though. Especially with the following examples...

*Link's Bomb would reference Bomb Kirby's usage of bombs.
*Fox's Fire Fox would, in a way, reference Fire Kirby's dash attack. This also applies to Falco's Fire Bird.
*Peach's Parasol would reference how Parasol Kirby can slow down his falling speed with the parasol.
*Sheik's Vanish would reference how Ninja Kirby can temporarily disappear whenever he's attacked.

But I guess there would be one big flaw if Kirby copied the Ice Climbers. Unless the Belay move is altered so that it can also be a tether recovery, it would be quite useless for Kirby.

That would be a nightmare to program, some wouldn't work well, and some people pick kirby to play as kirby though and shouldn't be penalized for using one of his moves.

So there's been several newcomers and rumored characters, so this is a thread to what would happen to show how kirby would look with his copy ability, such as an example Palutena. Kirby_(KRTDL).png

Someone over at gamefaqs suggested he should get a Wii Fit headband and have a unisex costume when he absorbs WFT, because there is a male and female version.

Makes sense. But having two hats for one character isn't all that unreasonable.

Yes
Yes
and hell yes :)

It's his B move, so I assume he'll either have a standard b punch, or be able to charge it up as well.

I'm hoping for the latter, because mac+kirby could be an awesome duo!

It's pretty easy to determine wether he will have a different hat for alt costumes or not.
It just depends did he do with Wario in Brawl? Did he have different hats for Biker and Plumber?
(I don't know, could someone tell me?)

actually, in the trailer, sakurai said rosalinas neutral b was star bit shot. so kirby would shoot star bits out of his mouth.
luma shot is side special.

Star Bits was her Side Special, Luma Shot and I guess summon/call back was her neutral

probably a simple shot.
otherwise, olimar kirby would have little pikmin following him.

kirby copies olimars side b.
in the case of rosalina, kirby copies the luma shot which is similar to the pikmin chuck.
i think kirby will just shoot out the luma and the luma will puff into stars in the same way the kirby's pikmin will turn it ghosts after being thrown.

Well with kirby he's copying olimar's neutral B but olimars neutral B doesn't throw so they had to merge the two together, rosalina doesn't have this issue because the same move, neutral B summons the luma and allows you to shoot it out and bring it back aswell. But this might be a little much for a kirby hat so they could do what you're saying

If Kirby sucks up Little Mac, his special will then be the lunge.

That begs the question, will Kirby be given a Power Meter just like Mac?

This is what he looks like (Female Variant, but I am not sure if he (she? because of Female variant but let's go with he) will change with the Male Variant.

Pacirby is hilariously disgusting.
But what is Mii Kirby? Does it depend on which type of Mii?

DOES IT BECOME A KIRBY MII?
