I've never been too fond of K. Rool personally. I know he's DK's classic nemesis, and I remember having fun when I played Donkey Kong Country. But I don't really see the appeal outside of that.
Could be interesting to see what happens to him if he DID get into Smash though. -Shrug-
They did a good job with him though, He came out nice
I used to think he's an unimaginative Bowser-knockoff with such little personality of his own that they couldn't even nail down a single concept for him in any of the games he's in.
... I still kinda think that, but it turns out that the silliness of this Bowser-Dedede offspring acting basically like one of those insane cartoon characters who put on a different hat and act like they're a different person, is actually exactly where his appeal lies. There's no personal satisfaction in it for me, but I don't doubt that Sakurai could turn him into a very fun character.
... although the fact that he'd been snubbed all this time makes me wonder if Sakurai simply doesn't like him, either.
Or ordinary observers, for that matter.
"Tell them to shut up and have some faith in me." - dead flashback guyI mean, it -is- a smidge suspect that the only things from a Kirby game he didn't work on in Smash have been a handful of music tracks and Kirby's new Final Smash in 4. But eh.
Anyway, finally cleared Hard True All-Star with everyone! The prize was the Saki Amamiya trophy, so hey, not some generic equipment, at least!
I sure said that!Meh. I can somewhat understand when it comes to some things (Wario Land being (almost) completely snobbed, for example), but it's generally used as an excuse for people to whine about anything they don't like.
Ganondorf is still a "clone"? Sakurai bias. Ridley non-playable? Sakurai bias. Most Pokemon characters are 1st Gen Pokemons? Sakurai bias. Wolf chosen over Krystal? Sakurai biais.
It works with so many things.
I wanted to choose a quote, but there was so many I couldn't choose.I mean if he was gonna get in, I'd imagine he'd have gotten in 64 or Melee when the DKC series was at its peak and he was actually the main villain of the games. I guess my apathy towards him is similar to Faws. Ive always hated King Mook as a main villain of a series and his visual similarity to Bowser doesn't help. It also doesn't help that his motivation seems non existent. He wants to kill the Kongs because....because. Even a plotless series like Mario gives Bowser a motivation as simple as "he wants to marry the main characters love interest."
But in terms of DLC, I'm fine with anything we get. The regular lineup is already great, anything else we get is gravy at this point.
Sorry to interrupt this, but I found something funny. Warning, swear words and stuff.
Is that from Lucina's VA? Cause that's an Awkward Zombie -tier reinterpretation.

Actually, Word of God did give us a reason: "K. Rool wants the banana horde because DK will starve and die without it, enabling the crafty croc to occupy the gorilla's cosy treehouse pad. He might also want it as he likes bananas, who knows?"
And to be fair, Bowser being in love with Peach is only hinted at in a few spinoffs, most of the time he just wants to kidnap Peach and conquer the Mushroom Kingdom because... he is EVIL, I guess. Plus, Bowser is pretty much a King Mook himself, being the King of Koopas, except he's not usually called King Bowser, and doesn't wear a crown (most of the time).

I think it's voice clips she has from other games she's done, if her voice actor is Laura Bailey.
So far I have 9 amiibos: Mario, Luigi, Bowser, Samus, Mega Man, Sonic, Kirby, Fox, and Diddy Kong
And I plan on getting Link when my neighbor pays me for mowing her lawn, and after that I'll be trying to focus on unicorns for a while. And I'm putting some of my savings towards Wave 4.
EDIT: My mom is saying that I should go for 1 amiibo a month because I'm buying more than using...except I'm in this for the collecting.

AAAAUUUUGGGHHHH!!!!I'm going to eventually get my hands on a Mario and a Samus for Smash, eventually, maybe. Those two plus Link seem like an ideal setup, if you only get a few, y'know?
I'm really conflicted about whether or not I'll bother with getting the Splatoon extras- It depends on how much they cost, I suppose, though I'm disappointed they seem to exclusively be unlocks instead of extra functions.
I sure said that!How likely do you think that an Inkling would become playable in Smash 4 as DLC?
I think it's somewhat in the realm of possibility, but I feel like the game's coming out too soon for that to happen...but what do I know? If you ask me, a playable Inkling would good promotion for Splatoon itself.
