I'm not sure if this has been brought up before (but considering the article I got this pic from was from February 15th, it probably is), but is this cameo hinting at a new Star Fox in the future...?




.....or is Peppy suddenly a submarine captain now?
Retro Studios working on Star Fox confirmed! :troll:

I hope so, I'd love to see the series get back in the spotlight. Hopefully this and Miyamoto's desire to see the series on the Wii U is a hint means we'll get news of it soon.

Dixie will most likely be revealed sooner or later. The recent success of the Tropical Freeze and the overall return of Dixie as a playable character gives her many high hopes. And as much I would love to see K. Rool in this game, this is not looking good for him. Not returning in 2 main DKC games. No real inclusion of him in spin-off titles like Mario kart or any of the sports games. Plus hes more of a Rare creation so Nintendo is probably want to distance themselves from him and go with there own ideas. I still got him as a long shot but dont get your hopes up type of inclusion. But hey will see. But I know Dixie gotta be in it. Plus more smash ladies never hurts.
K Rool does appear as a playable character in Super Mario Sluggers, which at least shows that Nintendo owns the rights to K Rool, and not Rare. But Dixie does appear more in the spin-offs, and more times as a playable character. And yet, K Rool has appeared in 4/6 of the current mainstream DK games, which is one more than Dixie.

Trying to weigh the likelihood of both characters based on their (playable) attendance in other games is posing an increasingly vexing challenge. :ohwell:

Here's footage of K Rool in Sluggers (along with many other characters), if you're interested.

Donkey/Diddy/Dixie/Cranky/K Rool would constitute a complete DK Roster. Maybe some day, there will be a Smash game to include them all.

But it's doubtful that we will in SSB4, so I'm gunning for the Kremling King. 8D

Cranky feels more like an assist trophy kind of character. Combine Scoorge McDuck and Mr. Ressitti and boom Cranky Kong as an assist. Still shock hes a playable character in Tropical Freeze.

You know, I agree. In fact, Cranky would make the perfect DK AT in SSB4 - assuming Dixie or K Rool don't already occupy that spot. >.>

You know who surprised me as a playable character? You know who really seemed like Assist Trophy material?

She is certainly at least deserving of AT status. But seeing her in action in SSB4, especially with her unique marionette playstyle, makes me glad in retrospect that she made the playable cut (doubly glad, since I greatly enjoyed the Galaxy games).

Yeah, Galaxy 1/2 are my favorite Mario games. You know what game also made me really happy?


Yes.

Lacking the Wii U, I haven't yet had the pleasure. I'm gonna buy one eventually (I do intend on playing SSB4, after all), and I plan on playing all the games I've missed in the interim. :grin:
In order, the best games for it are Super Mario 3D World, Resident Evil Revelations, Wind Waker HD (though I imagine you would have already played the GCN version) and DKC Tropical Freeze.
Oh and don't ever get NSMB U, I don't want anyone to give money to that stupid line of games anymore....

And I was mostly referring to the fact that Rosalina's in it. :)

I know what games I'm buying day one every time now.

Is it wrong to spend money to spite people or is it just plain stupid?

I think Rosalina is a fine addition as a playable character. She brings a new breed of Mario characters that we could use and its very unique. Plus Galaxy was one of better Mario titles so Nintendo really wanted to represent that game. Besides shes better then Daisy :3

Better than Daisy? Sure. But I bet a lot of people on this site would have rather seen Toad, Junior, or WAAAAAAAA.

Sunshine will always be my favorite Mario game. Probably why I'm such a Junior fan.

She's better than the majority of Mario characters.

Just ask Waluigi.

I look at him and keep thing "Why waste a roster spot on him?" Sorry brotha dont mean to be mean about him, hes just not my cup of tea. Same thing with Toad, forever Peaches neutral B

Shigeru Myamoto has stated the Koopalings were never Bowser's children. So, yeah. Bowser Jr has as much reason to get in as Rosalina. I'm honestly surprised he probably won't be in.

i agree it's nice to see unique driven character from her game also sakurai adding his own kind of touch into her making her unique , different , also tricky and maybe even challenging as a character to main

I understand what you're saying like how can a character like zelda be a playable character if don't play as her in the zelda games but well you see rosalina seems have been more recognizable. not only to players but in many games Mario kart being one of them she isn't say everyones favorite princess but she's gaining alot of rep thanks to Mario galaxy and 2 so if i say does she deserve that spot well i can say yes and no yes as newcomer bringing variety but no to fact something unusual and not being used too in the end i have to say that can't knock her till i try her

Gotta disagree. Maybe for one game he can be an assist trophy but at some point?

Cranky for playable status.

The guy is the original title character of one of the biggest arcade games and arguably the most important video game Nintendo ever created. Plus he'd play totally different from Donkey, Dixie, and Diddy, because of the cane and even the potential ability to throw barrels like in the original Donkey Kong.

I got a pretty cool idea for a Nazo no Murasame-jo Assist Trophy after playing the game a bit.


Meet the Maiden (Or Damsel or whatever else you want to call her.)! In Nazo no Murasame-jo, you can rescue Maidens who have been kidnapped to get an extra life. However, when examining the bag that they're being kept in, you may be surprised to find that it's not a Maiden at all, but rather a powerful demon that will chase you around the castle. As an Assist Trophy, this bag would appear before showing either the Maiden, who would heal the summoner of all damage that they have received, or the demon, who would attack the summoner and likely KO them. Finding out that you've summoned this Assist Trophy would make the match really tense for a moment or two, since it would either be extremely helpful or absolutely disastrous. It would be enough to completely change the way the match is going in either fighter's favor.

What do you guys think? Do you like the idea? Or would it maybe be better off having the bag as an item that you can choose to take the risk of opening?

So i learned that the roster from J-Stars Victory vs was TROLLED by the fans.

The abomination known as Taro Yamada wasn't a waste of a slot. nope. IT was a waste of dev time.

As long as Arale still exists as playable, I don't care, it still gets my money. Or, it would, if it comes to the states wait who am I kidding that's not happening.

Importing is fun. But it hates your wallet and bank account.

Lol...Jump crossover games are legal nightmares. Even if they were able to bring it to america/europe they wouldn't make money since it goes to all the other companies that work with the anime/manga translations.

And other games, such as the two DS ones, ended up never coming despite fan pleas. It's plausible, though the rights to these characters can mean hell in paperwork.
same could be said for jojos bizzare adventure on ps3 but it's on its way as we speak

That's one manga series. With just one it's absolutely easy. With as many as J Stars? Where you have stuff like Naruto, Dr. Slump, etc? It's that multiplied.

Assist Trophy. You have a physical character, so it would make far more sense for it to be that. It also sounds really cool.

No. There's a thing called editing the names to avoid copyright. lol
actually the name is the same you know?

It's not the same. They're actually editing the character names to be slightly different in order to localize the game.

Wham is now WAMMU

ACDC is now ESIDESI (or something like that)

Also, j-stars is a legal nightmare.

They can't try it in the fall. They can't try it ever.
