Taking a break from the who is returning, i decided to make this thread, especially since we are near DK TF release (japan).

Now the question on everybodies mind! Will Diddy Kong be Returning and Will he be revealed on DK release? (Most likely Yes)

Now I want to get deeper in this specific topic! Here we goooooo.....!

Lets begin, we have a couple scenarios that can pan out in SSB for WiiU+3DS! Donkey Kong has represented his franchise by himself in the first 2 games (original+melee) and was finally given a 2nd character in brawl (Diddy Kong). Now with DK Returns+Tropical Freeze (soon to be released) the franchise has grown bigger than before (sort of ).

As for the fourth installment of SSB there could very well be a 3rd representative from the series (possible 4th but thts a long shot), but who? This List goes to the people who actually have a great chance to some type of chance but still is eligible to be a playable character! Here they are...

↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓

⇒King K Rool: Biggest antagonist from the franchise, but has been absent for quite some time. He is a Villian, you never know (30-40% chance)

⇒Dixie Kong: A female playable character and one of the 2 big ones from the newest DK (Tropical Freeze). She definitely has a high chance especially considering she was close enough to make an appearance in SSBB! (80%-90% chance)

⇒Cranky Kong: As with Dixie Kong, Cranky will be playable in DKTF. He has always been a supporting character in the franchise but he finally gets off the rocker and joins in on the action even though he needs his cane! He's coming quite popular now even though i dont really get why lol! (30%-40%  chance)

⇒Funky Kong: Not as popular as the others but he was playable in MKWii! You never know, but i harly see hiim as playable in SSB (5%-10% chance)

For the fun part! Here are they with some extra things that can happen...

★Diddy Kong+Dixie Kong Tag Team: This was intended for SSBB, this would work out as Zelda/Shiek does. I assume if it were to happen Diddy Kong B↓ would be a barrel switch and they'll take away his banana peel!

★Diddy Kong+Dixie Kong+Cranky Kong: Yes its crazy as hell!I dont think it has any chance (maybe a 1%) but if it did imagine the barrels from DKTF! yeah switch out and play, it be pokemon trainer all over again... but with monkeys lmao!

If Diddy Kong+Dixie Kong Tag Teamed they can have their B↓ Switch out barrels!

WHAT DO YOU THINK? Your thoughts? Will Dixie Kong be playable? If so as a tag team or standalone?

Discuss...

I can almost see it happening since Diddy was in Brawl and Dixie be in this one or have her be like an alternate custom to Diddy or something but alas... the spot has to be reserved for Cranky Kong cause its his time to shine!!!

So, Probably not

poll added! pls discuss! might be just 1 day :p

I really want Dixie Kong and K. Rool, but the likelihood of DK getting 4 reps is pretty low so I voted for Dixie Kong as a stand alone character. She could be a wolf like clone of Diddy Kong with bubblegum moves and her ponytail to differentiate her moveset.

Also if Diddy and Dixie were a pair, I would imagine them walking together like in DKC2 and when you press down B they slap each others hands and switch in just like how you switch characters in DKC2.

or a barrel :)

No more Kongs in smash hopefully. I would'nt mind Diddy comming (nor would I care if he did'nt)

The only DK rep I want in Smash is King K Rool. I like having a villain and a good guy from the same franchise in my fighting games. But I doubt he will make the cut for legal reasons. I heard that the Kremlins are owned by Rare cause they were made for a other game before they were bought by Nintendo. This would be the reason why we did'nt see K Rool or the Kremlins in DK for years despite they being THE bad guys of the franchises. But I could be wrong and it could be possible.

Having DK, Diddy and K Rool would be perfect. But I expect only Diddy to come back sadly.

Im not sure if there are legal reasons for holding K. Rool back. After Rare was bought off by Microsoft; K. Rool showed up in all the Paon developed DK games (like DK King of Swing and Dk Jungle Climber), and he showed up in Mario Super Sluggers.

And what about Dixie Kong man?!

Interesting. I think Diddy and Dixie will be separate characters, but it would make sense to have them together, it would be like DKC2, in a way. Also, Diddy's B down move is the banana peel, and since tripping has been removed, that would make room for a new move...of course, it might just be random tripping that was removed and not tripping in general. Regardless, there's no chance of Cranky, I don't think. It just wouldn't make sense, and he's not that popular of a character. Contrary to popular belief, it is NOT the year of Cranky, and never will be. As for K. Rool, I'd love to have him playable. The series needs more villains, and K. Rool is the one everyone cares about from the Donkey Kong series. However, I don't see it as likely. K. Rool, while he has a stronger legacy than any other DK villain, simply isn't as relevant now. He'd still be welcome, but in terms of priority, I think Dixie comes first, then K. Rool. One thing's for sure, there will be at least one more Donkey Kong character besides DK himself.

I highly doubt it. Sakurai is trying to please as many brawl players as possible with the roster, so don't expect a lot new characters. Most of the new additions will be from successful Wii games and some 3DS games because of the handheld version. I don't think the wii u will be well represented in this game.

well there are 39 characters in brawl (40 if you want to count mewtwo since many fans anticipate his return). 22 are returning (24 if the unconfirmed Sheik/Zero Suit count). That leaves 15 left,  i can see that sakarai cuts about half of those.

Returning Veterans: Yoshi + Jigglypuff + Metaknight + Diddy Kong + Ganondorf + *Mewtwo + Falco + C. Falcon + Ness + Ice Climbers + Mr G+W

Not Returning: Ike + Snake + Squirtle + Ivysaur + Charizard + Wolf + R.O.B +  Lucas

Veterans = 35 characters 

Newcomers= 9 (*4 confirmed) 

Total 44 characters with some characters doing alt skin!

I can see Dixie Kong+Little Mac+Chrom+Paletina in the game!
