The King is Back! King Dedede that is!

[Brawlmatt202]

YEEEEEEEEEEESSSS!!!

And thus, I am satisfied!

 

[X-x-Dyce-x-X]

also im loking foward to the dedede fight music now......has to be in the game now right?

What do you mean he "has" to be in? He IS in.

 

[Desruprot]

This game is going to be epic like no other, his FS I was picturing a giant hammer hitting the whole stage (similar to a Master/Crazy Hand attack but on a larger scale)

 

[NintendoWarrior]

raiden from metal gear solid

Are you kidding me? We're getting 3 third party characters at most. Mega Man will be the last one. And what has Raiden done to even deserve a spot as an assist trophy let alone be playable. Him and Geno will not make it (thank goodness) Mega Man will take that last spot.

 

[Brawl Melee 64]

Awesome character update! I've wanted DDD in for a loong time. The only things left that I want in this game is Board the Platforms and Megaman (maybe Megaman is aiming to high) but this update was amazing for me

 

[X-x-Dyce-x-X]

Geno isn't a 3rd Party character. He's a 2nd Party character from a 3rd Party company.

 

[Lesheik]

I totally expected a character update today. I told my friend yesterday and I was like "Dude, there's going to be a character update tomorrow, go check it in the morning, seriously I have a good feeling about tomorrows update."

I just I got kind of lucky. XD

 

[b.wood5474]

Wow. I did not expect this at all i was blindsided real bad with this one. this is awsome so epic!!!! <3

 

[Desruprot]

Nice thought, but we need to find out what next update will be, we now can have some interesting battle although I hope Gannondorf will still be in...

But snake will be lonely....And oh god why do people like geno

 

[Desruprot]

Geno is an old character, who was very popular after his first and only appearence in SMRPG... He is just an interesting character (have you ever played SMRPG?)

 

[Silent_X]

Defiantly not surprising,
Since Dedede was Shoe-in from the beginning.

Although I was a expecting a veteran update today.
Preferably Ganon/dorf.

 

[NintendoWarrior]

Geno does not deserve a spot as playable. There are plenty of 1st party options out there. He's not even a classic character like Pit, Little Mac, Mario etc. I'd take Pac Man before him. And I hate Pac Man.

 

[GreenKirby]

*breakdances cause he's so happy Dedede made it*

 

[Sir James]

Awesome update...caught off guard once again! I was expecting a veteran fighter. I hope tomorrow's update is the Dedede special move set.

 

[pineappleupsetshark]

PARTY TIME!
Sonic, prepare to meet your doom.
I shall smash Sonic into oblivion with the King of Popstar's mighty hammer!
Seriously, this is pretty much one of the best updates ever.

 

[Burning Soul]

Kirby fans unite!

Im sooo glad hes in, it just makes me feel that kirby won't suck in brawl

EDIT:

And why the hell do people keep taking cheap shots at geno. if you have a problem with him, be a man and go to the Official Geno Thread so you can get ***** in 5 positions.

 

[Heavyarms2050]

I have, god that game was so cool. Anyways the way to me where Brawl is heading, it seems that each playable character will be have a rival character. So assuming that Falcon is still in his rival will be Black Shadow or Deathborn, Ike's will be that Dark Knight dude, and Link and Zelda will Ganondorf. (i found evil character/rivals in wikipedia)

 

[lucario_user]

peole, listen. there are not going to be any more veterans. there is only going to be one for warning challanger approching. who is it?

 

[Quintsy]

well... this is what happens when the director of the game is also the director of the Kirby series. Give me K.Rool and Ridley and I'll stop whining.

I'm with you dude

Where do you get your information? >_>

 

[Akiak]

Man 173 posts in one day!
Anyway today I was sad because my uncle passed the way
So I thought the DOJO update would cheer me up and man it did!!!

 

[crush_T_asain]

huh funny sakurai didnt mention ike as heavy

 

[cradmazy_SKAG]

i told Wes at cataclysm in march that i was maining King Dedede in brawl.

little did i know at the time that this could actually be a reality

awesome.

 

[Wii Wanderer]

Cool but not as cool as Sonic

 

[PIT_IS_BACK]

well... this is what happens when the director of the game is also the director of the Kirby series. Give me K.Rool and Ridley and I'll stop whining.

*slaps*

How dare you D<

 

[ripman3]

Why don't you like him? There aer sooo many reasons to like him.

1. Hes a penguin
2. With a giant hammer.

lol

Seriously that sums up everything I believe in this world.

 

[Neo-X]

I always knew Dedede would make it in, ever since SSB64. Anyways, I think his FS will be where he turns dark and his belly begins to have a eye/mouth theen starts blasting people with it. BTW anyone know what I'm talkin about?

sounds familiar...I never really wanted Dedede in Brawl...but now that he's in, I think he's awesome all of a sudden

 

[eebrozgi]

huh funny sakurai didnt mention ike as heavy

He's not heavy enough to mention... I guess.

 

[Brockman5]

It's awesome...Finally more kirby reps....

 

[EToaster]

Hmm, he might have good recovery for a heavyweight, considering that in the Kirby games, he can always inhale air in order to float just like Kirby.

 

[PIT_IS_BACK]

sounds familiar...I never really wanted Dedede in Brawl...but now that he's in, I think he's awesome all of a sudden

haha, thats pretty much how all the announced character work and get a fanbase

 

[Pima]

I knew it! Looks like finally I found my future main =)

 

[maxpower1227]

Geno does not deserve a spot as playable. There are plenty of 1st party options out there. He's not even a classic character like Pit, Little Mac, Mario etc. I'd take Pac Man before him. And I hate Pac Man.

Geno would absolutely deserve a spot as an AT, however.

 

[overthere]

Oh! That was a surprise. I hadn't expected King Dedede ever since the original video revealing Meta Knight.

I just hope he's got a unique moveset, as I can't picture what any of his specials would be.

 

[Blade Knight]

i bet

his nuetural specail will be same as kirbies but long range and spit farther and his dash attack (kirby does buning) he'll trip and fall on anyone around him like in the old kirby games i think his up B will be abosrobing air and floating around again like in the old days!

 

[Rx-]

huh funny sakurai didnt mention ike as heavy

He sort of implied it really good when he said "This time there will be lot's of moves like this among the heavy characters." Plus people have already played with Ike and deemed him to be a fatty.

 

[Doggalina]

Geno would absolutely deserve a spot as an AT, however.

Geno got just as many votes on the poll as Diddy and Ike. He got one less vote than DeDeDe. He was listed as 1st-party. What makes Geno so different from all the other popular characters on Sakurai's poll?

 

[Mr. L]

Well, that's one down. Now I just need:
Paper Mario
Lucario
King K. Rool
Ridley
Megaman

 

[Rang Flash]

I hope he's not as slow as Ike.
