What is the big whoop about K Rool and the Kremlings?

No K.Rool as DK's enemy is like no Bowser for Mario. It's just weird.

Now, K.Rool in Smash Bros, I agree, would be incredible. I wouldn't even care if he plays almost exactly like Bowser, honestly.

Biggest reason I would want him isn't for nostalgia's sake (I didn't play much DKC as a kid, DK64 was my biggest DK exposure), but because I feel like the game should have at least one major enemy for all the major protagonist playables. Mario has Bowser, Link has Ganondorf, etc. I think Riley and K.Rool would make excellent additions to the game.
