super smash bros - LEAK TIME AGAIN (RECAP: Yes, they're really adding Krystal from Star Fox, videos - Games

Is this what it feels like to dodge a bullet? I just woke up to this and I've got this huge smile on my face.

[QUOTE=eirexe;48318853]I will be staff here: [url]http://smasheurope.com/tournament/ossom-fights-2015/[/url] see you there, eurofags[/QUOTE] oh lol really? I met one of the TOs last week-end, Surrealista (David Vazquez), he's a really cool guy with a lot of hope for the eropean Smash scene. I'm considering going to Ossom Fights now, it isn't that far from where I live.

The only reason I want King K in is because: A - The Amiibo will look awesome next to Donkey and Diddy B - King K Rool vs King Dedede: The Battle of the Fat Kings

Like dude don't be that guy just because someone is happy that a character they don't like didn't get in. And let's be real, I highly doubt he's going to get in AND have a costume. K.Rool is far, far too minor and unimportant these days for super special treatment.

winning the ballot and getting in wouldn't really be super special treatment lol. it'd be a special treatment if he didn't get in after winning.

Was the reveal of Hyrule Castle and Peach's Castle already confirmed or are those new?

[QUOTE=Sift;48321007]" " is far, far too minor and unimportant these days for super special treatment.[/QUOTE] This is never true with Smash.

[QUOTE=Fapplejack;48321020]Was the reveal of Hyrule Castle and Peach's Castle already confirmed or are those new?[/QUOTE] Already confirmed during the last Smash Direct.

[QUOTE=Itachi_Crow;48321019]winning the ballot and getting in wouldn't really be super special treatment lol. it'd be a special treatment if he didn't get in after winning.[/QUOTE] Winning the ballot also doesn't mean you 100% get in no matter what though. I'm pretty sure they've said that from the start. Edit: Like I'll agree number 1 should probably get in no matter what even if it's someone I don't like but they've clearly stated from the start that it worked like that.

[QUOTE=Mr. Zombie;48321023]This is never true with Smash.[/QUOTE] hell, look at duck hunt, and ROB, who got in on nostalgia factor alone [editline]29th July 2015[/editline] [QUOTE=Sift;48321029]Winning the ballot also doesn't mean you 100% get in no matter what though. I'm pretty sure they've said that from the start.[/QUOTE] yes, but theyd really have no reason to not let him in if he won. he's a nintendo character that was the major villain of DK'S main games. if a character that won wasn't a viable choice (like goku or ice climbers), then that would be the point where theyd have to say "wow I'm sorry but no"

[QUOTE=Itachi_Crow;48321033]hell, look at duck hunt, and ROB, who got in on nostalgia factor alone[/QUOTE] Duck Hunt and ROB are iconic though. One saved the NES and the other was Nintendo's experiment with NES add-ons. You can't seriously be comparing a villain that got replaced around the gamecube era to them can you?

Also Lord Fredrick or whatever that guys name was the big villain of the latest game and he had just about the same amount of personality really. If you count DK Jungle Beat he had those dark kongs, he had the tiki tak tribe and he had the snowmads. K.Rool got into a baseball game (if I recall) and that's it- and even then they couldn't be assed to give him new artwork. K.Rool's Wart Tier these days.

Why do you think Lanky Kong gets anywhere or Bandana Dee? Honestly you sound like one of the guys that think they'll add one of the numerous Ridley's to the game.

[QUOTE=PSI Guy;48321049]eddit: also "k rool isn't iconic" yeah nevermind that he's one of the toprunners for the ballot. he's just a meme character like ridley, right?[/QUOTE] To be fair Ridley isn't a meme character either, if Metroid ever had a chance of getting one single new character at all besides Samus it would be Ridley. What else is there, Dark Samus?

It's not like the next 2 months will change the results of the months of votes (+ the hype behind them) they got so far. If they're actually waiting for the deadline before starting to work on the newcomers, I can see Wolf being added in the next months to fill the hole before we get ballot winners.

What else is there, Dark Samus?[/QUOTE] Depends on if they want to fully acknowledge Prime or not because there's all the hunters and whatnot. Logically though yeah Sa-x, Dark Samus or Ridley would be the next metroid character. Imagine SA-X getting in solely as a excuse to use the old power armor design. Edit: I guess we now have kawaii federation-chan that could get in.

(Silly question but do you can Dark Samus a girl? It's kind of a living angry face stuffed in a power suit) Also irony of non-iconic hunters isn't lost on me.

Most they got were trophy mentions and that's it.

[QUOTE=PSI Guy;48321142] Pretty much confirms you've never actually played a DKC game[/QUOTE] I've played all of them recently actually. You really are that guy aren't you? Edit: Okay I'll be honest I skipped 3 because I hate 3. Edit 2: I keep hearing there are more costumes coming tomorrow but the tweet isn't saying anything, is there a confirmation of it?

[QUOTE=Sift;48321147]I've played all of them recently actually. You really are that guy aren't you?[/QUOTE] how do you not remember anything he did in bossfights then? looking at the camera every time he got hit in dkc1 and his faking death. the way he explodes and gets covered in cartoony soot, his bravado in dk64 where he showboats to the audience (EAYHHH THANK YOU), his cheesy dialogue in dkc3. he has shittons of personality. he's a manic costume-obsessed madman. he has tons more personality then the DKCTF guy but you apparently remember them as exactly the same.

there's a reason you don't hear anyone saying "Frederick for smash," and its not because k rools base of support is a bunch of memelords.

If Fredrick came back in the next game (if there ever is one) in a astronaut outfit and the snowmads were suddenly spacemads he'd have the same exact gimmick and depth as K.Rool. Like K.Rool you can toss as much personality as you think he has onto him but his goal of "steal banana" isn't the most legendary thing deserving of being called AN ABSOLUTE MADMAN. Like every game after the 1st is just him getting butthurt that he got a gorilla fist up his ass for doing something stupid and the only really memorable thing about K.Rool himself was the admittedly good credits fakeout.

I remember when TF came out everyone was screaming for Fredrick to be K.Rool in another new disguise and instantly shitting on him without mercy because he was in fact a new character.

Same with Dedede. I mean feel free to try again but that's one of the weakest retorts I've seen yet. Also the idea of Bowser being a absolute madman is hilarious.

how exactly does that make k rool a meme? people wanted the iconic villain of DKC to return to DKCR, and that wasn't the case, and probably had more to do with the fact that retro said they weren't bringing k rool back

Rool's whole character in DK64 is just irrelevant then? K. Rool has more to him than "grumpy crocodile" which is what you seem to think is all that he is.
