So...just WHY was King K Rool hanging out with DK and Diddy Kong?
So...just WHY was King K Rool hanging out with DK and Diddy Kong?
Rarebros gotta stick together.
They became friends later on. That's why kongs don't find against him in that shitty reboot series.
Because they needed a excuse to re-use the same goddamn trailer twice.
Boyfriends
Cute as fuck
it's his day off. All the nintendo villains are really just doing their job and clocking in.
It's why bowser can kidnap peach one day, and go karting with everyone the next
Because even though they are enemys they're from the same series
I'm just glad DLC characters are getting trailers like the rest.
Because everyone is cool with each other in the Smash Bros universe. It’s called Smash BROS not Smash Enemies
They all just got done beating the shit out of each other after the last trailer and K Rool was too tired to make the trip back home, so he just crashed on DK's floor. DK was too wiped out to argue.
They resolved their differences.
They're hinting at K Rool being a playable protagonist in Retro Kong 3.
Joker didn't
Can we get an edit?
joker got his gay anime trailer
Joker's a fag.
>shitty reboot series.
Play them dude they're actually phenomenal, I was like you too once and didn't want to give them a chance, but they are seriously amazing.
I guess this is what people would call a RARE pair!
classic and appropriate
Same reason why Bowser hangs out with Mario sometimes despite being enemies.
K. Rool knew how lonely they were, being the only two DK reps in Smash.
They’re not at work
Maybe he decided to stop being a shithead after he got his ass beat so many times. Him and DK are hanging out in the 101% ending of 64.
Tropical Freeze is. Returns can blow me.
They got tired after their boxing match and had too much head damage to remember why they were fighting.
Bowser's definitely friendlier than K. Rool though, and he and Mario keep getting into situations where they have to work together because there's some new shitter who just came here and needs to learn who the real boss is.
This is probably the explanation that Rare would use.
After his shit got fucked up and he was stranded on the island he needed a place to crash. He pays rent with bananas and DK's love for bananas beats out his dislike of K Rool
Art of the Rare boys being Bros together when
Theyre vuddies but every so often DK pisses King K Rool off so he resorts to stealing his bananas.
This feud typically becomes a island wide war on who was in the wrong.
Look at K. Rool's movements.
>does similar getup animation in this trailer that DK did in his trailer
>clap forward tilt = DK forward smash
>the feral DKish run
Years of isolation have made him realize that if you can't beat them, join them.
I like the idea of K. Rool being a lazy deadbeat roommate that DK just barely tolerates
Bowser and Mario are actors, and buddies who hang out. Their adventures are just a show they put on.
>K.Rool was actually just another buddy all along
He got that big hype trailer where he hijacked the game awards, that was more than enough
>Shitty reboot series
C'mon, man. You can't be fucking serious. They might not live up to the geniality of DK2, but both Returns and Tropical Freeze are very solid entries.
That's canon in Donkey Kong lore, too.
People tend to take the Kong/Kremling feud a little too seriously due to a tongue-in-cheek comment a Rare employee made about K. Rool possibly stealing the banana hoard so DK and friends would starve to death (while conveniently forgetting this was the setup to a punchline about him wanting to move into DK's treehouse), the Kongs wiping out the Kremling's home island and everyone living on it in the ending of DKC2, K. Rool plotting the same "genocide" in return in 64, and so on. You just have to understand that Rare never gave a remote fuck about the stories of these games; they were just window dressing to them. K. Rool isn't actually a psychotic serial killer, he's a cartoon villain doing the job required of him. Never forget that the plot of Donkey Kong Land for the Game Boy was Cranky calling up K. Rool on the telephone to steal the banana hoard all over again, just because he made a bet with DK that he couldn't complete his last adventure on an 8-bit system.
He got two
I never actually played Banjo's games so I was ambivalent towards him, but I like this shot of these three just being really happy to see him and Kazooie again.
Also I saw a comment saying that DK not having teeth here when he does basically everywhere else (including every other shot he's in in the trailer) is because Rare's DK render didn't have teeth. I'd believe it, since that seems like a big animation error otherwise.
The English voices for the P5 crew, and the cat noises on Mementos in particular, make me want to fucking kill myself. I want a refund on this DLC.
>K. Rool knashing his sharp jaws like he could be trying to start a fight
>he's big, fat and green like grunty
he deserved to get Jinjo'd for being cocky.
I mean in the original DK game they were basically doing a roll call at the end.
LOOKING
COOL
JOKER
Donkey Kong's mouth has always worked on cartoon logic. If he's making an expression that requires teeth, he has them. If he's not, he doesn't.
They really did a fantastic job making me regret booting the game up on the uncommon occasions where I lose to a Joker.
nintendo knows human teeth are uncanny valley so they keep the teeth where they are comically nessessary like gritting or grinning. it is goofy looking but that's Donkey Kong in a nutshell.
K. Rool is still a dick, watch him push DK out of the way.
I just don't think DK or Diddy are the type to really give a shit about K. Rool if he's not immediately harming them. It makes sense they could be friends whenever he's not being a cartoon villain.
What gets me about DK's design is they turned what was just supposed to be shading under his brow ridge into a horrific, fleshy mask around his eyes, filled with fur. It's grotesque and gorillas don't work that way.
Reminder that Banjo and DKC are in in the same universe. Banjo is one of Diddy's friends.
>Sonic Boom TV series but with Nintendo characters
Better question, why the fuck did banjo attack Krool with a Jinjonator a then proceeded to smash him with huge ass rock?
Is Banjo a psycopath? Did all these years being forgotten changed him?
Because that's how Banjo Kazooie goes.
They're in Smash Bros
The trailer opened with a montage of the villains in Smash for a reason.
Gorillas don't come in brown so we are already in the not realistic territory.
He probably still thought K. Rool was a no-good kroc instead of a chill party fighter.
The end of the final battle is Grunty being crushed by a rock .
I think the idea is that it's literally the aftermath of K Rool's reveal where they are just happy to be together again, which was the entire theme of Banjo's trailer
They all started a friendly smash match and K. Rool got hit with BK's final smash.
I'm sure Mario's hit Luigi with a final smash at least once.
Kazooie corrupted him.
There's a different between changing an animal's fur color and butchering their anatomy to no artistic merit.
IIRC, Banjo didn't drop the rock in the ending of Banjo Kazooie. A piece of Guntilda's castle just broke off during the attack and happened to crush her. I assume the rock was an accident here, too.
It is a strange design, but it's not recent. His current design is still just a higher quality version of the DKC renders.
it's a cartoon, always supposed to be one since he's inspired by Bluto from Popeye. as cartoon characters he fits.
>K Rool was literally the most happy to see him
>Banjo pushes him off a cliff and trapped under a rock Grunty style
>The thumbs up picture has Diddy and DK but no K Rool
Bros.....
>tfw chad joker broke into the game awards
Kek
You see a lovingly crafted Final Smash filled with soul and referencing something integral to a character's home series like Banjo's or K. Rool's, and then you see Mario just...tossing out a bigger fireball. Man. I think Mario's moveset in general kind of sucks as Mario's moveset. He should be using way more different power-ups, like Mega Man.
tropical freeze is almost as good as 2
When Banjo left K. Rool was still a massive prick to DK & Diddy. If he mellowed out, Banjo didn't know.
You might notice that the fighter movesets become more and more authentic as the series progresses. The original 12 have largely made up movesets, only distantly inspired by the original games.
Everything about that fucking trailer was bizarre as fuck.
The villain montage shows up,includes DK and makes you think it would be another villain, but then also cuts to the same fucking DK scene that includes K Rool.
For that couple of seconds before the jiggy showed up i was confused as fuck, actually had a second thinking Dixie or Frederick would show up
Yeah, Captain Falcon was just grafted onto an original Kamen Rider-inspired character from the prototype. It's unfortunate, and poor Samus is just crying in the gutter with her trash.
90% of the 64/Melee/Brawl cast have really uninspired movesets because Sakurai thinks people prefer their mains to feel familiar. He only changes characters that he needs to (BotW Link, and that's like 2 moves and his outfit) or from massive fan demand (Ganondorf sword). 4 & Ultimate newcomers, especially third party characters, have way more care put into their movesets (except maybe Cloud).
Wario is the biggest victim of this. He might've actually been better if he got to be in Melee as they intended at first, since it'd be pre-Ware and he'd only have Land to go off of.
I knew it would be BK from the second it started out referencing the DK trailer, but I was expecting it to cut to them lounging around watching TV
Did you understand the "Raring to go" message?
Mario and Luigi were just Smashified shotos in 64, people bitch about FLUDD but it did a lot for his moveset
>K. Rool and Banjo both have amazing final smashes
Nintendo's finally doing Rare right and its amazing
Stop making up headcanon Sakurai. The guy tried to blow up their island, they're not friends.
I thought it would be a villain at first too, was expecting Eggman or Porky, but when it showed the Rare boys I knew it was Banjo's time
>tried
>failed
>they blew up his island
>then blew up his 2nd island
>K. Rool, Ridley, Simon Belmont, Banjo & Kazooie, Cloud, Sonic, Snake, Pac-Man, Mega Man, and every single Dragon Quest character
>all in the same game
>mfw smashfags cheered just like the monkeys in the trailer for the banjo reveal
Nintendo are fucking geniuses
I cheered like the crocodile.
For a brief second I thought my boy Funky was finally in.
And why is he cheering for Banjo? Banjo threw him out of a cliff and crushed him under a rock.
Before the jiggy I was expecting Funky Kong or Cranky desu
Supposedly, a lot of the original 12 character final smashes were leftover ideas from Smash 64, which is why most of them are so generic. At least a few of the worst offenders like Luigi and Link got revamps. And Jigglypuff's is retroactively canon.
Well, maybe he should have three. I'm Bart Simpson.
Fighter 4 will be announced in Summer during the Smash direct.
Fighter 5 will be announced at the Game Awards.
Screencap it.
This is the ultimate showdown of ultimate destiny
>you can have Banjo fighting K Rool, Snake, and Ryu on Midgar in an actual, official video game
Imagine going back in time and showing yourself this roster right after Ultimate’s first trailer.
The lack of Dixie still hurts...
I unashamedly stood and cheered, I have no shame when it comes to the bear and bird
we are promised all the characters within this year so during this rate the final character may be spring 2020. meh, best be good.
don't read so much into the social lives of apes and crocodiles
GOOD GUYS BAD GUYS AND EXPLOSIONS
>go back to 99 when 10 year old you was picking up the first Smash box cause the cover art looked cool
Imagine going back in time and showing yourself this roster during the time of Smash 64.
>Richter Belmont vs Banjo Kazooie vs Ryu vs Bayonetta with a Stage Morph between Mementos and Pac-Land
Look at this Nintendo game.
I was expecting Dixie or Cranky before the jiggy appeared. You might notice that Diddy's hat says Nintendo and Dixie's says Rare, which I think is quite a nice gesture.
Tails, Knuckles, or Eggman next, no Shadow
man my ten year old self would have had a goddamn stroke.
As a Roolfag, I was conditioned to see Dixie as a looming, insurmountable threat for so long that I still only feel relief and joy at her notable exclusion from Smash. I'd love to have her in now, though.
I would've really enjoyed playing as Knuckles but he's an AT like Shadow. Eggman would be based.
Why are people saying he has no teeth? I see those pearly whites right there
Seeing pic related would have made me shit my pants
I got it because they had it on demo at ToysRus. And it had fucking Pikachu fighting Yoshi why wouldn't I want it?
I got it because Mario, DK, Yoshi, and Pikachu were in it. I was introduced to every other franchise represented in 64 as a result. Changed everyhthing.
I was thinking Samurai Goroh or Black Shadow would be coming to Smash.
why does the next sega character half to be a sonic one? not even a fan but i love the shit i seen from the Yakuza series online. rather that than more Yiffing in hell.
Its been nearly 20 years since he last saw the guy. Cut off from the DK crew and uninformed.
Yeah, there's some voice-clips left over in Smash 64's code. PK Starstorm is one that had leftover data tcrf.net
>this implies a dark world on top of the BotW world
honestly kino.
*AHEM*
Fuck jokerniggers, they're the lowest of the low.
>NEVER EVER
It has tons of fun potential. Alas.
get fucked
Come to think of it, I'm kind of surprised Agahnim never became a mainstay in Zelda games, given that he was one of the first really prominent characters outside of the main three in Zelda.
people just assume he's a mechanic, you reflect his shit. that's really uncreative headcannon. it be great if he was actually coming back.
He got a pretty obvious gay expy in Ghirahim
>Bad guy who is just the extension of the real bad guy's will
It’s a reference to the witch being crushed to death
Their rivalry is just kayfabe. The boys put their matches together in the back to make them entertaining for the fans.
I was wondering how they would be able to make Frederick his own character separate from K Rool until the Jiggy showed up
Dixie must have been included in the K. Rool trailer, at least as an echo of Diddy. That opportunity will not come back.
Knowing Nintendo, they'll be too lazy to announce more echoes at this point.
I thought it was gonna be Porky...
>he's trapped under the earth forever
I can't believe K. Rool's fucking dead. I hate Banjo now.
This post made me laugh
But user that's a Kong, not a gorilla. They're different species
i was so excited for a moment bc i thought dixie was coming
It was a rare slumber party.
>get bored of playing banjo kazooie
>take out cartridge and replace with smash
how little i knew
tfw when you realize OP's pic is what smash devs think of smash fans and their rosters
Diddy said the same thing
>spends his day off just napping at DK's
>gets beaten up by Banjo on his day off
K. Rool gets no respect.
Sakurai specifically said no more Echoes.
I really loved that they did that
>Why, yes, I do shit on my fans. How could you tell?
>that shitty reboot series
Yea Forums... not even once
Once it's all complete they gotta offer it as a wall art
Once this is complete they need to announce more Switch themes with this being one of them.
For a threeway obviously.
Only question is who's the bottom.
they reboots look/sound great but the controls suck hard
also rolling into enemies not extending your roll is almost sonic 4 tiers of bad
i'll take the bait to say fuck you pal it was pretty enjoyable
>K Rool is now stuck under a rock for two years
Skeleton K Rool when?
>Mfw the Rare gang
My favorite type of villans are the ones you can hang out with at the end of the work day.
>shitty reboot series
this is the most blatant
>NEW BAD
shit I have ever seen. DKCR is fantastic, TF is fantastic. Fuck right off, they both easily shitstomp DKC3
>just WHY was King K Rool hanging out with DK and Diddy Kong?
Its cartoons
Nice
why does bowser play sports and party with mario?
>The fucking Jinjos get to be a big spectacular attack in motherfucking Smash Bros.
I'm so happy, bros. They've come so far.
love this reaction
>Not sure if want
Canonically, Miyamoto says it's all just an act. It's like the whole "Mario 3 is a stage play" but for real. They're just actors to play roles, be it saving a princess or playing go karts.
>Once again DK and Diddy chilling in the tree house
>This time K Rool joins them
CAN WE JUST GET A SEQUEL TO DK 64 ALREADY YOU TEASING FUCKS
Indeed they do
;_;
K. Rool's trailer is unironically a redemption story.
There's no plot, there's no kidnapping.
King Kroc just stomps up and starts a tussle with DK.
And in the big scene of the two running at eachother, DK is FUCKING PISSED thinking his old villain's up to his old shit again.
K Rool? He's having the time of his god damn LIFE. He's overjoyed just to duke it out again.
It's just the Megamind situation, without a public image to maintain.
All of the character animation on the Kongs and K. Rool looked really amazing. So, so much better than the first trailer with Dragon Quest and dull anime humans.
>Miis getting more and more shafted with every character announcement
fuck
>mfw the second that Jiggy flies past them
except Chunky Kong, he died
Probably taking a rest from all the shit of K. Rool's feature and fixing the window? Which got broken again.
>reboot
K. Rool is so expressive.
Maybe K Rool beat the Kongs and wouldn't leave their house
why does bowser play go kart with mario?
they got tired of fighting and wanted a brake for a bit before going back at it
>Dragon Quest and dull anime humans
Is it just me or did K Rool and BK's trailers get a hell of a lot more love than any of the other characters revealed/ The animation is top notch, the attention to detail is top notch, there's comedy in there, the cut to the music is perfect in both of them. I'm not complaining here though, it's just something I noticed.
>k. rool's belly button makes it look like Dixie has a pacifier
They're taking a break from beating the shit out of each other
Biwser is Bluto. He's a big bully that, according to Miyamoto, doesn't really want Mario dead, he just wants to put the runt in his place.
K. Rool absolutely wants DK and all the Kongs dead.
Tropical Freeze is one of the best games this decade you dunce
>there's comedy in there
Because it's very prevalent in their games.
Because it's been a while and they put their rivalries away.
They are complete bros now
I would really like to see K. Rool (and Diddy) become staple guest characters in the party games. They should be in Mario Kart and Mario Party. They should be invited to play tennis. All that shit.
And Banjo, Kazooie, Mumbo, Grunty, and Klungo would all fit in really well too.
You're not wrong, but hell look at the wood in DK's tree house, shit even reminds me of the CGI renders in the Nintendo Mags back in the day.
expect ridly
he actually straight kills people
I think they are the most comedic, best executed, and best animated. Also, I like K. Rool and Banjo the most out of all the announced characters, but that's just a personal opinion. I think that Donkey Kong Country and Banjo-Kazooie always had quite a strong touch of classic animation which has been transferred very well in these teasers.
Gay. Why can't we have new characters?
Every video game ever is just a play and the characters are actors, and outside, they are all actually friends
Because Nintendo.
>You can almost hear Sakurai and co saying with this trailer
>We know how much you love them and we heard you loud and clear
banjo's home island was destroyed by krool
Tropical Freeze is good, Returns is hot garbage
Because maybe they finally worked out their differences
>inb4 Katie's comic where Samus denies Ridley because he killed her parents.
Would be based.
Seems like they were tired after some Smash Bros. And K. Rool crashed at DK's. No biggie.
That didn't rhyme, get back in line!
if the final boss isn't Ganon I'll take it. I've said this since BotW is released. I'm fine with Hyrule since the setting uses it in a unique way. I'm fine with returning races (even though there being so many Hylian villages but none for the other races except for the Beast areas is a disappointment) The villain should not have been Ganon. It took so much away from what the game could have done by locking themselves into Ganon
that particular shot made me feel very warm inside, it's like they know Banjo is more at home with Nintendo's IPs
isnt he way bigger than both of them?
FLUDD is still useless it does nothing for his moveset
It doesn't help that Nintendo has never known what to do with "Ganon" ever since Ganondorf was introduced. He's completely changed in every game featuring him since OoT.
look at everyone, they are all happy and cheering him on and then there is that fucking faggot Sonic doing complete try-hard shit. I can imagine him saying some shit like "HUH DON'T GET TOO COCKY SON" God I fucking hate Sonic. Looking at him frustrates me. You couldn't at least wave you failed mascot?
You know what's funny now that you pointed that out? That's 100% in line with the marketing and character Sega tried to create for Sonic back in the day.
He was only ever "final boss pig" even before Dorf came around.
Guess we have Nintendo to thank for this one, considering that sakurai mentioned it was Nintendo that's responsible for the DLC characters.
Depends on the game
Tooie Grunty isn't allowed to rhyme
The fact that it was the other Rare characters seeing Banjo was nice.
Just Sans and Doom Slayer left boys
>never played banjo games
Then fuck off you fucking zoomer
>Music composer saying “Banjo... Kazooie... we’re home now”
It’s the most soulful shit to happen in the E3, literally LUDO moment
DK looks so legitimately happy to seen them again, like a friend he hasn’t seen in a very long time
AND THEN THERE'S CHUNKY
HE'S dead.
Reminder that in the beta DK64, DK had a Banjo-Kazooie Refrigerator in which you would be able to Stop 'n' Swop the Ice Key from BK to DK64
There's even a cutscene that remains in the game which pans to the spot where the fridge was, then warps you to Crystal Caves
I am curious of what kinds of reveals they can do
would you prefer this?
The bears in DKC3 was like a prototype for Banjo.
Never thought I would get feels from a Smash trailer, but here we are.
i just realized krool isn't biting the air randomly, it's his version of clapping, i'm a fucking dumbass
>not klapping
YOU HAD ONE JOB
Is there any actual connection between Banjo and the Brothers Bear? That would be a cool touch in a future Banjo game
Kind of. Miyamoto made it look good.
I have this weird sinking feeling they're trying to seperate the "malice" and Ganondorf into two seperate entities here. Why the fuck they're doing that when G-Dorfs appeal has always been as a man with demon powers is beyond me.
Worse still if that stupid backstory is right and there was a timeline where he was a good goy. Like the anitthesis for why I loved Ganondorf in the first place.
Banjo was Diddy's friend though
cries in samus
>Banjo-Threeie is about Banjo finding his family.
No he didn't. Rare's initial pitch for DK was basically what they ran with. The final product looked nothing like Miyamoto's oldschool Donkey.
I know, oldschool had better eyes.
I'm surprised they can still keep making CG trailers. The Dragon Quest one was incredible
He's trapped in hell where Doomguy will save him
Donkey Kong, Banjo-Kazooie and Conker all take place in the same world.
If they make him a good guy I hope he's a complete asshole antihero
Soul
This is the canon answer.
Oh. Well I disagree. He looks so vanilla. I don't particularly want to play as him in anything.
Sans
>Characters going through a spooky castle
>Skeletons everywhere

>"SANS HAS A BONE TO PICK"
why is the duck hanging out and fighting alongside a hunting dog?
>burying K. Rool in a boulder like that
What the fuck is Banjo's problem?
The fucking Alien from the end of Conker is canon in Mario's universe.
yikes on the left
Based westren devs saving that shitty design so much that the japs basically stole it for the last 20 years
Modern Kong is so kino.
They're united by their hatred of the hunter.
It has a retro charm to it. But yeah, as far as a protagonist, he has zero appeal.
Should be Young Link encountering him
he slams kazzooie to the ground as a normal attack to the point you can hear her wheeze in pain
He doesn't give a fuck
Because he has no games.
I'm sure it's a combo of the fact that fans wanted him and Microsoft was going to give Nintendo anything they wanted for free or chump change since it's Smash.
I wouldn't be surprised if Nintendo asked to have Cupboy ported as part of the deal.
K. Rool seems cool with it. I mean he just showed up to beat up DK in his reveal for shits and giggles.
the DQ Hero already took what I would expect a Doomguy reveal to be like. Him just tearing up Dharkon minions
Because Rare developed DKC and Banjo Kazooie. That's literally it.
Yeah, none of the Sm4sh DLC characters even got one
She likes it rough, though.
Boom only worked because no one gave a shit. Everyone involved knew it had no chance of long term success and would be a standard 52 episode 2 season daytime run. I doubt anyone even read the scripts they pitched. They were probably free to do literally anything.

You have to remember that comedy, attention to detail, and huge expressions were some of Rare's favorite staples
The attention to detail is because Rare is also the company that constantly pumped out these old renders: which aced that in spades, and it's represented in their trailers because of it
Wow, Diddy, where did you learn those words?
Gold.
Because Smash 4 was made during the darkest period in Nintendo's history.
it's so weird seeing it written as "Super NES"
As far as I'm concerned Smash is now complete. There's other characters I'd like to get in, but B&K were the last ones that were actually supposed to be there. I kinda never thought it would happen and still can't believe it did.
xD imagine if doomguy was fighting nintendo's kid characters

>hanging with dk
>banjo shows up with his slut
>kills you for no reason
What was up with that?
see

These three cartoon jungle animals have more personality than most of Nintendo nowadays.
K. Rool literally wrecks DK's Island each time he gets the Smash Ball. He had it coming.

Is this....?
This
Actual Rareware content was the last real major thing that was a significant part of Nintendo's history but wasn't represented in Smash
Now that we have Banjo, it really does feel like the last piece of the puzzle has found its place
Now I want MH rep to be trolled by those two
I wouldnt count it but was corrins just a reused FE Cinematic or was it original
I know next to nothing about the FE franchise outside of smash since its not a genre I have interest in.
>out of all the 3rd party characters in this game, Banjo and Kazooie are the only ones the Nintendo characters were actually happy to see
And people say BK doesn't belong in Smash.
fuck outta here
I want to push this bitch tits-down against the floor and fuck her discovery channel style.
It's almost as if Rare took inspiration from Looney Tunes (where Bugs, Porky, Daffy and Elmer regularly break the 4th wall and act as actors) rather than everything having to be some serious story.
That's how people supposedly got aids from.
>DuckHunt plays a prank on the MH rep

NINTENDO HIRE THIS MAN (ME)
We'll we need to know for sure.
SONY WON
Conker's Bad Fur Day is exactly like that.
this
Yeah?
>22 man years
Did they just tally up every Rare employees working hours to get this number?
Because originally they weren't 3rd party characters. It's a reunion.
They all heard that their old buds were finally making it to Smash with them, so they decided to stick together to give Banjo n Kazooie a warm welcome.
Because it's not YOUR game is OURS
Wouldn't you be happy to meet Banjo? He seems like a cool guy. Kazooie seems like a bitch though
Someone I know refused to believe that was cgi back in the day. Looked too much like a puppet
>DK
>Rare
Because Banjo is a shitty low effort character that they had to reuse K-Rool's trailer for him. What a waste of a slot. Crash would have been better.
Which actually makes it better in my eyes. Nintendo people are literally fucking brilliant.
Reused FE Cinematic.
>modern DK
>not Rare
lol, go back and play all the Miyamoto DK games and see if you recognize him.
Other companies WISH they could have a game that represents gaming this well
Template?
DK is Rare. They specifically said it in the trailer.
Use spoiler tags you pricks. I haven't even finished Banjo Kazooie.
Because the management has stated that they're all a big, fighting family. They're all just fulfilling their roles, and when they aren't doing a game they just goof around because they're off the clock.
Except Ridley, he's a cunt to everyone.
I think ryu had one
I was thinking it would be a another villain but then the jiggie showed up and I instantly made the dk = rare characters connection
Banjo's final smash is a spoiler for the end of the game.
>mfw another character trailer opens with dk, diddy, banjo and k. rool all chilling at the treehouse together
who would it be?
Just crono
Use a spoiler for your image. Cunt.
Someone hasn't played Donkey Kong Country.
inb4 doomguy fucking shoots down all the trees
I was legit sad that they didn't announce Dixie.
>Inklings get a cool shootout with that amazing flaming logo at the end
>"Everyone is here!" generates a fuckhuge amount of hype
>Ridley kills Megaman and Mario, showing that the big lizard means business
>Luigi fucking dies, Simon cleans up his mess while Richter saves Simon in a pinch
>Chrom just shows up
>Dark Samus just phases in
>DK and Diddy chilling out, Dedede acts like a fuckhead, K.Rool fucking kills Dedede, window gets broken, awesome 2v1 counter in the sunset
>Isabelle does secretary things, gets mail, asserts dominance over everyone, and Villager fucking dies
>Ken kicks Lil'Mac's ass like a true American, and Incineroar interrupts his victory
>Piranha Plant comes out of fucking left field, kicks everyone's ass
>Joker enters in a very Persona way, almost doesn't even fit the game's aesthetic
>Link getting his ass kicked by fakes, saved by DQ11 protagonist at the last second, then has three more protagonist show up to bail him out of a really awful spot
>DK, Diddy, and K.Rool hanging out, Duck Hunt acting like a pair of fools, Banjo dropkicks the lesser pair away, DK crew happy as hell, and K.Rool gets fucking buried alive
Which reveal was your favorite?
Steve
Who else?
Conker with his chainsaw.
HE
Conker fucking cuts the tree down while shitfaced.
The first trailer looked awesome though. Not even a DQ fan but seeing all the DQ heroes come in when DQ11's protag was surrounded looked cool as fuck.
he's inconsistent, like bowser
Idk but I’d be really sick of the “haha. You got punkd” joke for a 3rd time.
It was cute the 2nd time. Don’t fucking push it Sakurai
TT
Joker was the worst reveal trailer. His friends are obnoxious and should just stop talking
King K Rool defeated the Kongs and now owns them as slaves, hence why he's taken over their house and is now sleeping there.
DK and Diddy are cheering for their old friend Banjo who can save them from K Rool. K Rool is chomping at Banjo, not cheering him on.
Conker silhouette only to transform into Fulgore and the Rare crew freaks the fuck out
>they pull it a 3rd time
>it's actually a fakeout and the character they tease doesn't get revealed
>DK turns off the tv, Diddy chilling in his swing, Banjo snoozing in a rocking chair, K.Rool asleep on the floor
>Explosions outside
>Everyone runs to the window, breaks it early because it's a fucking zoo vs a cheap wooden wall
>Shadow of a fluffy short-eared character holding a gun
>Fox shows up, asking for some help fixing the Arwing
>K.Rool looks bored, others offer help with smiles and nods
>Huge explosion sends Fox flying
>A short furry silhouette walks in with a huge fucking gun
>"Well that's one fox bound for the stars."
>CONKER
>HAS A BAD DAY
>Made you wait huh?
what did he meant by this
they had sex
Tiptup but he'll apologize and leave for getting the wrong address
it's cannon in nintendo games that characters like bowser and mario will bro out and play golf when bowser's not trying to rape peach with his barbed cock. I mean bowser and mario were being bros for a second at the end of mario odyssey and the ulimate message of nintendo games is never to fall for the eternal female.
I’m still basking in the Glow of Banjo. It’s right up there for now with King K’s (ironic because of the setup) Hearing that remix of Gangplank galleon and than that fucking final scene.
That was beautiful man. It was just beautiful.
>there's a sudden lurch as the tree house appears to fall, or shrink, it's not clear what's happening from the inside
>dk and the others look out the window and look down
>steve is punching the tree into blocks and taking them
It could work
>they all chillin'
>suddenly whole treehouse starts shaking with a rhythmic THUMP THUMP THUMP
>they poke their heads out to see whats up
>Minecraft Steve is in the process of punching down the tree
I'd say it's a tossup between K. Rool and Ridley. When Sakurai revealed Ridley it confirmed anything was possible with this game because he really wanted to please the fans.
>tiptup knocks on the door
>eyes appear at the window, checking who it is
>they dont answer the door
>tiptup leaves
We both know who would it be
steve treemind
he's finally home
No don't let Bond make Bayonetta obese.
>golden eye
>it’s snake but with really fucked up hit boxes with the final smash just brining it back to good all first person mode.
does Ridley count or is he like a tier of evil above everyone else?
DK64 is canon. DK blew up K. Krool's island.
Is K. Rool a boomer
I like to imagine Sonic is happy for Banjo, but can't bring himself to be sincere because he's got a reputation to keep up.
the pic would have been better without megaman sonic and pacman desu
Ridley and Ganon are pure evil.
>she rhymes for the first hour or so of Tooie until her sisters tell her to shut the fuck up
Genuinely made me laugh.
>there are people that have never played/beaten banjo-kazooie
go ask mommy if you should be on this website sweetie.
Go grab an emulator and at least play the first game, if you've got the time. They're some good shit.
Reimu doing some danmaku bullshit outside
this is canon
>kills her sisters at the end of Tooie and goes right back to rhyming in Nuts & Bolts
I mean, Bowser is doing his best with trying to present the Direct, so this does make sense...
Goku
>Silhouette pops up
>revealed to be DQ Hero, probably 3's
>KAAAAMEEEE
>HAAMEEE
>HA!
>gets blasted and Goku lands
Monokuma
>bear silhoette
>banjo gets Blast Off'd
Sans
you already know what I'm going to say
11/10 made me feel
Kazooie deserves it
it was for the sake of the BK reference. I'm sure he understands
Time for a new Smash Manor thread
Mario's in a tricky spot because he's supposed to be the "easy" character every fighting game has, like Ryu. It's difficult to make him faithful to his games while keeping him in that role. You could also say it's still true to his character, though, since in all the sports games Mario is the "average" character.
Imagine showing Sega and Sony fans Sonic, Snake, and Cloud.
Honestly, Ridleyfag here but Pirahna Plant's was so out of left-field I knew from that moment he'd forever be my Smash main. Only Sakurai could make a fucking plant work
>Trailer starts with Bowser, Ganondorf, King Dedede and King K Rool fighting it out.
>They send out their own minions to attack each other while they go blow for blow.
>Slowly, they realize that their minions are dwindling.
>When they look on the field, they find them all stuck to a weird ball as they are rolling away.
>Bowser punches the ball away, it rolling up other things.
>Gazing down, he calls for the other villains for a truce to look at something.
>A small green alien, the Prince of All Cosmos, looks up in concern.
>Chortling, they take turns stepping on him as he tries to dodge them.
>Meanwhile, the ball that was rolling before harmlessly bounces off of a very tall leg.
>Two abnormally large fingers pick it up in first person view before the camera looks in the direction where it came from.
>Meanwhile, Ganondorf punches the ground and launches the Prince up before grabbing onto him.
>The other kings begin to laugh before a giant shadow casts over them.
>They go silent and look behind them in confusion, screaming as they see a extremely tall shadowy being look over them.
>We get a first person look of them being afraid before the focus shifts onto the Prince in pain and agony.
>The shadows eyes turn red before striking a pose, sunlight finally revealing them.
>”The King Of All Cosmos Rolls On By!”
>Gameplay trailer has him using his different punishments he used on the Prince to fight, even spewing out letters from his mouth like during the loading screens of newer Katamari games.
>His final smash is taking the sun itself and rolling on the stage, like the Hothead item but bigger and way faster, slowly growing bigger as time goes on.
>Trailer ends with the other kings rolled up in a Katamari as the King Of All Cosmos tells his son that “Maybe one day, when you are as big as The King Of All Cosmos, you can join the fight as well”.
>He than tosses the it up into the sky and makes the “Smashing Sun”, which is a sun with the Smash logo.
They updated it? I thought they wouldn't do it since they didn't show in the Direct
Isn't he just literally Ganon in disguise wearing a robe, though?
It's based on a fireball attack he uses in Mario RPG. Kind of a deep cut, looks generic, and I'd personally prefer the Odyssey t. Rex, but it checks out.
Am I a joke to you?
I don't think we'll ever get a reveal like Joker's. No one, literally no one saw it coming and the way he stole the show at the mediocre Game Awards was amazing
both trailers were awesome
sakurai i love you
Sigh, Square is remaking the wrong game. I would love to see that crazy world of Seven Stars made with modern hardware.
I imagine Bowser feels about Mario the way Joker does about Batman. If he ever killed him there'd be a hole in his villain career and he'd be genuinely sad about it.
based
>tfw games still dont look like this render
>K Rool homeless
>Makes DK take him and and becomes his roommate
They make Valentina's boobs smaller and Yea Forums goes apeshit
agree
>that's only the neutral attack
I really doubt it is referencing anything. It doesn't use the aesthetic or prompts unlike other Final Smashes which are call-backs to the character's games, just think, Dr.Mario just launches Giant Pills the same way instead of busting viruses. Just remember Luigi's old final smash
I learned them from YOU!!!!!
You forgot one
>Fox and Falco are fighting down a metal corridor, Wolf persuing with his gang. Grenade blast rocks the hallway before everyone stops as they hear thudding coming towards them
Was so kino for the August Direct.
>before the legal fuckery with Microsoft, there was a massive expanded universe of Mario/DK/Yoshi/Wario/Banjo/Conker games
The "mario has deepest lore" shit isn't a joke fellas
And eats parents.
The villain trailer had me immediately thinking Porky, to be honest.
I bet you could pull it off using similar techniques to how claymation is done but that would take so much work
because k.rool and dk love each other very much
>All these replays
>NO FUCKING BATTLETOADS!
heres your nonrare dk bro
thank god for the west
It's literally like something out of a "that kid" scenario.
youre depressing me, bro
it would have to be a rareboy
so that just leaves conker, james bond(lol), the horse pinata from viva pinata or that chick from perfect dark
It updated with Joker during the 3.0 patch preview video didn't it?
I'm gonna say one thing. If Doomguy gets in the trailer better end with him doing this but to Smash characters
>chain saw sound
>everyone freaks out
>conkers shadow
>Baited with mario lumberjacking
>the bait never ends
>if you interfere with her rhyming she fucking murders you, even if you're her own flesh and blood
>rare crew in the house
>hear a female scream
>rush to the window
>it’s pierce brosnan bond burgering your sister
mah nigga
i dont remember tsa agent kremling
not long
That's the only time I've audibly screamed "What?" at my screen.
>"Literally who?"
>Yea Forums during E3.gif
The original trailer is called "Rivals", not "Villains"
Banjo was a rival generation mascot
Neck
Snake > Joker (because NOBODY expected it) > Banjo > K Rool > Ridley > Simon/Richter > Isabelle > Ken/Incineroar > Chrom/Dark Samus > DQ Hero
Yep, made this back in high school.
Every Zelda title is literally the same characters' souls reincarnated into a new time period, while the innovation is derived from the surrounding world and mechanics
There's a stark difference between stealing bananas, and killing parents.
It’s kind of impressive she still has such a strong personality after being stripped of her key gimmick.
And her sisters speaking in weird Yoda/Macbeth witch speak was a neat touch.
Oh my god Carlos shut the fuck up
>crocs don't age they just get larger and larger until they are killed or too big to feed themselves
>K. Rool is fat but Cranky looks ancient
DEEPEST LORE
CARLOOOOOOOOS!
Well, that fight IS meant to be a parody of the Super Mario 64 Bowser fight where you swing him and throw him
Look at this fucking video game picture.
A Piranha Plant watering a Pikmin while Mr. Saturn stares at Solid Snake's ass while he's planning to fucking kill Simon Belmont with a rocket before he hits Link in the dick with his whip not knowing Banjo is kicking it away but Toon Link is secretly trying to replace normal Link so he wants him to be severely injured and is therefore gonna shoot Banjo for stopping his planned assassination.
What about the Island destroying lazer?
is this real?
shit like this makes life worth living
There's a stark difference between blowing up an island and personally murdering everyone you've ever loved gleefully.
>And Banjo, Kazooie, Mumbo, Grunty, and Klungo would all fit in really well too.
Well Banjo first appeared in Diddy Kong Racing so that's obvious.
>the pic would have been better without three of the other most iconic vidya characters ever
Cloud and Ryu should have also been there since they're the other two super heavyweight popularity characters.
Also fuck anyone who says Cloud or Ryu wouldn't be in a happy picture.
I get chills seeing that trailer. Banjo-kazooie is a treasure.
The characters in smash aren't the characters in the game or actors. They are figurines of them.
what happens when he goes against kirby?
I was neutral towards Banjo-Kazooie making it in, but that trailer was so magical that I've watched it at least 5 more times throughout the day.
nice
so bond burgering was a euphemism for his feeder fetish?t
i never knew i wanted something so badly
I'm sorry I ever doubted the man.
user I don't think my heart could handle Banjo and Katamari fanservice in one game
>Banjo and Dragon Quest don't need to be updated since they're in
I just realized that their celebratory animations are actually present in-game
>Donkey Kong is swinging his arm like in his neutral special
>Diddy kong is clapping his hands like in his down tilt
>Krool is chomping the air like in his idle animation
So much soul it hurts
Believe it, baby.
Banjo is the only one in the whole series I'd say is more hype than Snake in Brawl (or Snake in Ultimate to be honest)
He has a lot of experience with blobs that eat large quantities of food. He'll be fine.
Ridley and Ganondorf are the people in the group that none of the villains want to talk to.
what about dork samus
Ridley is just his own thing. He ate samus' parents just like humans would eat pigs or cows. They are a step below the food chain for the big flying lizard so he doesn't care. Really Samus isn't much of a hero herself. Every planet she leaves blows up, she only exterminates the metroids for the interests of humans.
I don't see how you can hold a conversation with someone when all he can say is DORIYAAAH and HMPH
Why don't they? Is everyone in the industry really just that soulless?
>frogposter whines about being spoiled
>on Yea Forums
He deserves to be spoiled.
conker asking where the nearest titty bar is
Kek. I pollished this up a bit.
I'm more surprised no emulator has a plugin that lets you use custom sprites. I would love an HD version of DKC with sprites that are higher res versions of their old renders. That and Mario World with graphics like the manual artwork
Anyone know how to save gifs with more color depth?
>Shot of ninja feet running through tall grass
>They hear a noise and all try to look throught the whole in wall caused in the banjo trailer
>See the silhouette of a ninja
>Magically transforms into laughing Zelda (because it was actually Sheik)
>Another ninja appears and knocks her out
>It's Ryu Hayabusa
Is there a way to emulate the DKC games on my computer without having the graphics look like shit? It just isn't feasible for me to acquire a CRT TV, SNES, and copies of the games.
>diddy being an asshole
Lol
You can't turn webms into profile pictures buddy.
Gifs actually have some utility you know.
>failed mascot
I wouldn't call Sonic a "failed" mascot. The opposite, really. His later games may be mostly trash but he is as recognizable as Mario
If I see Sonic in an unexpected context I usually have to stifle a chuckle because I find him inherently comical in an unsympathetic, pitiful way. Sonic is a disgrace to the industry and his inclusion in the Smash roster tarnishes its pedigree to an extent.
same
Never mind I figured it out.
truly the leepest of all dores.
Who did this, it’s ludo
>Dry K. Rool
there's an idea for the next dankey kang game
Damn did sonic shit on you or something man?
N-N-NOOOOOO STEVE STILL HAS A CHANCE, I SWEAR! HE ISN'T DECONFIRMED YET BANJOFAGS!
twitter.com
They only hate each other when a new game comes out
That was so the CG wouldn’t spoil that it was a smash reveal
Kalcified K Rool
what do they say i had to close out on those voices?
You forget Prime 2 when she saves an entire planet from Dark Samus, Space Pirates, and the Ing
this, even if it didn't make sense, the rare guys needed to be together for this reunion
Some Sonic autist literally did, I'd imagine
It's still debated to this day exactly what the hell Agahim was. Some people think it was Ganon projecting himself into the light world while others think it was some kind of minion that Ganon spawned from himself to do his bidding. It doesn't help that the word Ganon uses to describe Agahim in the Japanese version is so damn vague. The original SNES game translated it as "Alter Ego", while Hyrule Historia instead uses "offshoot".
because you touch yourself at night
Nice! Here's that background without the sillouette incase you wanted to clean up the background, or anyone else wants to make any.
Imagine being this party poopish
Good, they should've never been in the game in the first place
>spoilers for a 20+ years game
Nah man the graphics have aged like milk, goat game though if you can handle it being a bit ugly
Everyone hates that fucking dog.
They are all bros now
Mario’s final smash should be a something from his latest game because all his older stuff (Starman, Mushroom, meta box) is already included as a generic power up
So I think mario throwing out cappy to capture something ridiculous like a t-rex would have been the best choice for it
Rare Bros before Rare Hos, yo.
kazooie is a dirty slut tho
K Rool fucked Tooty in the early 2000's.
Banjo still hasn't forgiven him.
Remember though in Brawl Ganondorf was ready to throw hands when Zelda and Link brought him back, but they were just like “Look what tabuu is doing”
And his does his Shadow the hedgegog/sasuke style “HMPH” and helps them because he knows a bigger bad when he sees it
My head cannon is Ganondorf isnt that bad. Demise’s curse bringing him back as the literal king of evil every time doesnt make the man himself that inherently evil
Look at Wind Waker. Who is canonically the same Ganondorf from Ultimate
>K Rool fucked Tooty
Oh, so he ended up crushing her to death with his fat body? I can understand why Banjo's pissed, then.
Oh shit i like that song.
>Pooland and the Great Mighty Poo exists in the Mario Universe
is that where she went?
same bro
Its nice how they added pacman, megaman and sonic too. Guess it would be weird it snake and simon were there looking really serious.
Agahnim was the first instance of Ganon using his ability to create "baby ganons" that carry out his will. Phantom Ganon and the Blights were created using the same power.
Y'know what fuck it since never ever is apparently now give me God damned Optimus Prime in smash since he's got a massive east and west appeal plus a few games to his name
Just turn it into Smash Ultimate X Dream Mix TV
A-am the only one that immediately though Funky Kong when the trailer started?
I feel retarded
Fucking this so much
Let The Touch he his main theme too because fuck it sakurai is going crazy
I thought it was snowmads even after I saw the jiggy
>video opens with the enemy/rival images
>Funky
dude
For a second I thought we were actually gonna get porky
