Forums - Gaming Discussion - What is the big whoop about K Rool and the Kremlings?

I can't seem to figure this one out. 

Many people want him for Smash, I wouldn't object to it, but he isn't on my list of most wanted characters. He's not even that good of a character to begin with. Same with the Kremlings. I have a friend who really loves K Rool and he wants him in Smash Bros so bad he can taste it. He got so hopeful when the kremlings appeared in Smash Run. 

Another note is when the opening movie for DKC: TF was released, I saw someone say, and I quote, "Come on guys, enough of this, just bring back the kremlings". Once again, why? The Snomads were an excellent enemy. They froze and captured not a banana hoard, not a monkey, but an entire island. 

My biggest question is why? What is so special about K Rool?

Whats so special about Pikachu? Charizard? Mewtwo? Imagine pokemon witout the originals at all in the next gen games.

King K Rool is nostalgic for the DK franchise, and DK Country (1-3) were amoung the top best platformers of the 90s.

King K Rool makes sense, he's a villian too. Me personally think he'll be great for SSB, but wont be upset if he doesn't make the cut.

Interestly enough the long forgotten Kremlings are in Smash run. This makes King K Rool chances better, as well as a Rhythm Heaven Characte due to Sneaky Shadows being an enemy as well.

Hints also point out...... (just hints, dont take it like its confirmation pls

"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

Pretty much this.. I love the DKC games, but King K. Rool is not even that much of a special villan! :-/

Think along the lines of Mario with no goombas, koopas, or Bowser and you'll understand.



I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016

AS I SAID NUMEROUS TIMES Kremlings were chosesn because that's a big part of DK history, and because they are pretty unique enemies with them swinging arms around.

Does not affect King K Rool's chances.

Also, apparently from GameXplain (who talked to insider) said something about BOSSES in SMASH RUN but then quickly told them he should have not said that so yeah.

I would support Dixie slightly more anyway.



I like the DKC Trilogy. I think that DKC2 is the best, DKC is good(I don't like it as much) and DKC3 is meh. I played these games for their levels and music. Nothing else. They were fun, the enemies didn't interest me though.

I do like the inclusion of K in every word starting with a C.

And I still don't see the big whoop. 



Because people expected the Kongs to have one constant enemy. DK64 would be a wonderful candidate for a remake in my opinion. The game itself was around 8 hours - 9 hours long. It can be loaded with extra stuff, plus if it's remade they can remove the game that belongs to Microsoft and have one of their own. Maybe Nintendo can contract out *cough* Crytek *cough* to do a DK 64 remake for the Wii U.
