EXACTLY how I'm feeling right now. Like, as long as they both get in, I don't care who Sakurai adds.
Yeah I really feel her not being announced alongside K.Rool means she's not getting in the base game. She could technically be DLC if they plan on announcing a new DK game next year to tie her in (ala Isabelle). If she gets in through DLC I doubt she will be an echo and be more of a Isabelle semi-clone. If she IS in the base game I feel she will be an echo and revealed ala Dark Samus...
Well it wouldn't hurt if she was something in between, more than just an echo but maybe not 100% unique. The semi clone treatment would do her justice at least cause it keeps her in character to a decent degree. Due to her popularity and relevancy it wouldn't make sense for them not to go the extra mile with her. The echo treatment just wouldn't be enough to make it feel like how Dixie truly be in combat in my opinion.
Unique characters have never been revealed together in the same trailer, I think the opposite, if she was an echo she'd be in his trailer like lucina was in robin's. And I really can't imagine a world in which isabelle can be a semi-clone but Dixie is just an echo.
Don’t worry, Vergeben is gonna be run down fairly quickly, considering he is saying only two left, one unique and one echo. If we get another smash direct, then everything Verge (and several other bandwagon leakers) has said will be completely inaccurate.
Vergeben has only said those are the only two that all of his sources have heard about (Incineroar and Ken). He says one of his sources has said there is a second Square-Enix character (but does not know whom). My own speculation is that Incineroar and Ken are all that is left for the base roster, and that this mystery Square-Enix character is actually among the first (if not the first) DLC fighter, and this character is most likely Geno (whom is perhaps the only character Sakurai has said he wants to see playable but is not playable yet).
The same world where Sheik can be a completely unique, pulled out of thin air fighter while Ganondorf is a clone (Melee). It can happen. We just hope it doesn't.
It was wonderful, full of encouragement and support. Empowering to the Heart which is what we need to keep our confidence going. Thank you for this message.
Glad you enjoyed it, I get cheesy when I'm tired and sipping a few beers. But typing all of that out made me re-read my own points, and seeing them written makes me do a double take at just how ridiculously obvious she is as a choice. Forget her pedigree and her new game, forget the immense success of DKC2, forget her large fanbase and ease of inclusion, SHE LITERALLY ALMOST MADE IT BEFORE. And her situation has only improved drastically.
It would be a crime if Dark Samus makes it in but Dixie Kong doesn't.
If we get another Smash Direct, it has to have more than the last Direct because it's the grand finale at least for the base roster that is.
I don't see in any universe where Metroid has more characters than Donkey Kong, it just can't happen. She has to make it this time!
Same, I also really want to use her in Smash as well. When I think about how much I love playing as Diddy cause how much close he feels to the games he came from and I want to experience that same feel when using Dixie as well(an echo can't do that obviously) it feels more like they actually care about the character when they have moves incorporated from their history in games. Since they actually have played the games(especially when Diddy and Rool has abilities directly from the series) they should be able to do the same for Dixie as well.
What's even more baffling is how there's far, FAR less deserving characters in the roster than Dixie.
Right, I mean, DLC is all but confirmed at this point, there is no way Nintendo is passing the opportunity to hype up their new Online service with something as huge as Smash DLC. I really don't want to pay up again for extra post-launch characters, but it's going to be a necessary sacrifice I guess, because it's kinda clear not everyone is getting in the base game.
he won't say that the box theory is real or not because he just don't know.
If your sources don’t know if there’s two more characters or five what good are they?
I'm happy Isabelle got in but I admit the trailer was very calm, especially compared to the massive hype of most other newcomer trailers. I guess it makes sense to have it like that; it represents the tone of Animal Crossing perfectly and this was a general Direct that reaches casual Nintendo fans.
i don't understand people who said ridley is a "predictable" sakurai troll us with this one.
Adding to this, and this is for everyone, Verge being right doesn't mean Dixie isn't in the game. He has real sources and knows some characters, but not all of them. He was as surprised as we were when KKR, Richter, Dark Samus, Daisy, etc. were revealed, and he also said himself he does not know the full roster.
yep like i said in another post above :
So... Verge don't worry me but this box a little bit. Corocoro 108 stages just help me get some more hope but in the end... only time will tell.
This is why it was so unfortunate to miss Dixie the last game. She should've easily been made playable last time. Especially if considered for Brawl. You know, Toon Zelda also never made it in, but that's far less of a deal. By the way, the redesign of Zelda what she has now still sort of represents a look in between the modern Zelda and Toon Zelda, so that coupled with the Phantom Slash still gives the character a small shout out. Dixie has nothing.

are the newest members of the Barrel! Welcome inside; these are interesting times. We have renewed hope in a faithful Dixie moveset, an expanded focus on Donkey Kong from Nintendo, AAAaand a respectably popular thread to discuss it in. Thanks for joining!He has actually said that about many characters.
