There is only one other DK character I would be okay with gracing the roster.
Poochy Kong.
Ironic enough M2King allegedly leaked Funky Kong as playable character which I strongly believe that it's full of bs.
Definitely Dixie.
Sure, there's the "fact" that Cranky is the original DK (which Nintendo seems to avoid talking about these days), but Cranky Kong is only a main character in Tropical Freeze. Not only is Dixie also a main character in TF, but she's a main character in Donkey Kong Country 2, Donkey Kong Country 3, and two of the Donkey Kong Land games. Maybe it's because I grew up in the mid-'90s, but Dixie immediately jumps out to me as a more important/iconic character than Cranky.

Are you insinuating that Resetti should step into the ring and hack some poor fools' skulls open with his pickaxe?
I really don't think Dixie would share a single attack with Diddy. Nearly everything would utilize her hair.
Ice Climber isn't featured in NES Remix 2, so that would be kind of odd.

I said wow
What if the character select screen is a RAINBOW
Wow, this would be so awesome!
ok maybe more of a ness/lucas type deal. I wouldn't mind it but would have preferred the dixie/diddy tag team.

All we need is Daisy to fill in the lack of orange.
She's definitely my first pick...*cries*
I main Toon Link also, but I would have been fine with him leaving, as long as a new, interesting character takes his place.

I still say the Bullet Bill Express should be the SM3DW stage. We've never had a Bowser stage and that would be perfect. They could drive past different areas including a spot where Plessie could appear. They could have Bowser's airship for the 3DS version.speaking of orange The 3D world stages needs to incorporate Plessie somehow
My friend mains him and we always start with a Lucas v. Toon Link battle when we play.
Funny thing is, neither of my mains are announced yet. I had high hopes for Pokemon Trainer to be revealed already.
The lack of a Bowser stage, castle or airship, is one of the most baffling oversights in the whole series. I'm totally on board with the train idea.

The bullet trains were advertised with the game when it was revealed. I imagine Sakurai is somewhat aware of upcoming games before they are released/anounced. Then again Sakurai would've been aware of Galaxy for a while and we didn't get anything related to it.

Apparently there is a thread claiming that Sutherland are doing MK or so.

Solid Snake for Smash, Big Boss for MK if it's Metal Gear related.
We can have that, right? Right?
I'd be cool with that too.
Bullet Bill express would definitely be crazy!

Samus should be orange.

I can see Gaondorf getting shade of orange tho.
hahahaha
I see that Diddy Kong was confirmed to return. No surprise there!
Dixie or Cranky to be a new character... seems likely to have one of them.
Bottled fairys have been a Zelda staple for over 20 years.
Watch Da Birdie
I buy cakes for myself on my birthday it's not weird lots of people do it I bet
I read this as him voicing Meta Knight.

Does it kinda bother anyone that Toon Link is still using the Hero's Shield and not the blue Mirror Shield? I always thought The Mirror Shield and Master Sword looked so cool together. Oh well.
ORLY ? =P
The screenshot was an obviously 3D World reference.
Like the Mario/Luigi/Peach/Toad screenshot on 3D World's release

... Does M2King have any legit info on SSB4? A friend was telling me he claimed during a stream that he knew about Mac beforehand and has hinted at both Mewtwo and being a playtester for the game.
I don't know professional Melee players enough to know if he's obviously joking or not. :T
Hey, I knew about Mac beforehand as well. And I think Mewtwo can happen due to his prominence in X/Y. Does that make me a guy with info as well?

I gotta say though, with characters like Little Mac and Villager we have really covered all the major Nintendo franchises. Nintendo needs to introduce more characters ASAP if they want to keep up with Smash. We're running of material.
The characters are there, it's just that no one cares about them.

Is it weird that the thing that skyrocketed my hype today was not a veteran being confirmed but rather seeing the pre-order cards in person at target? I've said it before and I'll say it again, the thing that would honestly raise my hyper more than any veteran or newcomer is A RELEASE DATE!!!!!

I read that as him doing voicework for Mario Kart.
"ROLO COMES TO THE RESCUE"
Okay, so nobody but me would get it, especially since it was a Genesis game and not a SNES one, but still
Speedwagon
Michelangelo painted the Sistine Chapel. Yabuki turned off voice chat in Mario Kart races. True artists of their time.
I'm pretty sure he's not a play-tester for the game. I remember him saying that he wanted to be one, though, and later saying he had someone who could get him hired at Nintendo; perhaps you heard a rumor formulated by this?

I just gotta say I hate Funky Kong so much. To me, only Kiddy Kong beats him in worst Kong designs in the DKC series. There's just something about his design that I just can't stand.
Only time I was ever able to tolerate him was in DK64
Definitely one of my least wanted characters for Smash. King K Rool on the other hand....
So they need to create characters and games people care about.

Haha for me Funky Kong is the only tolerable design to come from the (original/Rare) DKC series.
