!~Popeye for Brawl~! (Not a joke thread)

[Azuriken]

I'm getting a little annoyed by some people's responses... mainly because they are ignorant to understand why Popeye really isn't a joke. Captain Caveman is a joke. Popeye has a real history with Nintendo and while I doubt it would happen, it is more feasible than any joke character that could have been posted.

What garners him a plausible spot among the elite? It is a well documented fact that Popeye, Olive Oil and Bluto were originally suppose to take the places of Donkey Kong, Jumpman (Mario), and Pauline in Nintendo's very first arcade game, "Donkey Kong" (well it would have been called "Popeye"). Nintendo failed to get the rights from King Features to use Popeye in Morimoto's genius design and that is why Donkey Kong and Jumpman(Mario) were born. If they had gotten those rights we would have seen Popeye scaling construction sites to save Olive Oil. Mario and Donkey Kong may have never been born at all.

Following the success of "Donkey Kong" King Feature decided to give up the rights and a Popeye game was made, thus making him the very first cartoon character to ever be featured in a video game.

The lore is too rich to deny Popeye a spot in Brawl

edit: I didn't think people would take this seriously, I think his appearance remotely possible, so if I get enough support I'll work on this thread. Until later.

However, Popeye did not originate as a video game character so he's not even elligable to have a spot in Brawl, sorry.

You call this a joke thread?
I would too!
You need a picture and a moveset, I'll get you started:

 

[Azuriken]

Thanks, picture set. I think a moveset could be made for popeye in no time. Now, as far as I know, I could be wrong here, but as far as I know there arent any rules about having to start out as a video game character.

 

[Regiwi]

Believe it or not there's already a thread for it...

Also, almost ALL joke threads you can think of have been done on here already.

His FS is eating spinach, where he 1-hit-kills everything including the stage.

 

[Squadalah]

And you guys hated when I posted Captain Caveman Yeesh

 

[jay~B]

G&W Is not a wtf character!

 

[Cinder]

*facepalm*...why do people create joke threads? This isn't funny...and it's been done before...

 

[Earthbenderjump5]

retrds.

 

[Squadalah]

well avatar was made just to promote bad kung-fu (Random Avatar stab. Hey I hate that show and this is a kinda stupid topic- aw screw it, I'm sounding like a troll I'm just pissed Danny Phantom was canceled

 

[Azuriken]

One quick bump before I let him die.

 

[iMichael]

It's all coming to me....Masahiro delayed the game, because he wanted Popeye to be in.

 

[The_Corax_King]

I thought the "not a joke" part was hinting that you were actually talking about K Rool...

w/e...

 

[Lecto2007]

This is a joke right?? Why do i even bother to open these threads.........*Sigh*

 

[Johnknight1]

He has to have a taunt where he smokes his pipe, lol...and he dies from lung cancer!

Edit: As a message to children not to do drugs/smoke, otherwise you might do stupid things, like make threads like these!

Lool dude your a joker.

Alright, you know what, I'm not gonna jump on the hate band wagon here. Yeah I don't think he will be in. Yeah I don't think Popeye even qualifies simply because he's a cartoon character. This may be a ridiculous notion, but you have to give the guy props for doing his homework here. All that stuff is very true, Donkey Kong might have never happened if the original plan went as follows. Can you imagine, Popeye, King of Videogames? Gives me the chills.

So yeah, I don't think this has even a remote chance of happening, but as far as "joke" characters are concerned this is the first joke thread I've seen that made me actually think "holy CRAP. he's right!"
Won't happen, but this guy has the kind of thinking that makes WTF characters happen in Brawl.

If nothing else, hats off for such a mindset, and also for doing your homework.

 

[Lecto2007]

Stupidest thread ever since hes a classic forgotten cartoon and he should be as far away from brawl as possible.

 

[dodoromeo]

[Lecto2007]

This thread should have been closed in 20 seconds

 

[Ruggeth]

Is the creator of this thread stupid?

He won't be in brawl. 0% chance.

 

[Johnknight1]

Joker? I'm ****ing Johnknight numero uno! There is no joke in this, it's all serious business. Just look at the smilies!

I'm not a joker, I am a hilariously sarcastic prickish psychopath!

 

[Lecto2007]

Loool Thread creator is crazy Popeye didnt even come to sakurai's mind.

 

[Cinder]

So, this isn't a joke? *facepalm*...

 

[Lecto2007]
