That's more or less exactly what I had in my head when I wished for it. None of this fancy spherical crap, just a regular stage that you couldn't fall off of, you could only be thrown/kicked/blasted off...

If I were to design a stage based on Galaxy, I'd have a black hole in the center, with a platform that goes 360 degrees around it that has a few gaps on it. falling into the hole is a death, and so it getting blasted off-screen.
Speaking of which: I'm liking that firecracker weapon.
I was happy to see the speed of Pickachu's Volt Tackle. I was afraid it would move around too slow, and be easily avoidable.
I get the feeling you control it with the Wii remote pointer... or control stick if that isn't available.
That would be sort of difficult to do without a reticle.
I mean, either pickachu is moving as fast as he can towards the reticle, which could cause problems if you aren't pointing properly.
or
Pickachu is moving 1:1... which really isn't possible, as you could just shake your wrist really fast, back and forth until you've covered the whole screen 6 times over. :P
Or the blue ball Pikachu turns into IS the reticle. It could very easily move with a delay, simply tracking to where you are pointing, so if you point too fast or try to shake your wrist you will fuck it up and probably not hit anyone. Thems the breaks for being greedy.
Also I know they said no Wii specific controls... but how Wii specific is it when you could control it with the analog stick, too? Not too big of a departure... and I get the feeling they are going to try to get some Wii remote controls in there anyways considering the limited nature of the remote on it's own.
It's not going to happen dude. There's no motion control. Pikachu's final smash on the pointer would mean instant death to everyone on the screen, as opposed to moving around at a set speed with the stick.
You don't know that.
Didn't you read my post? What is to keep them from setting a set speed with the pointer?
Because then it would lag behind where you're pointing in a ridiculous way. I just don't see any sane reason why they would do it.
Maybe they'll show off his final smash: the Donkey Punch.
As... opportune... as that name is, I'd like to see DK whip out some bongos for his final smash. He can drum on them for a few seconds, shaking the whole stage, and then he'd clap, sending out the bubble from DK:JB around him, doing massive damage to all within the bubble.
God, I hate DK. That would be awesome, though.

Maybe they'll show off his final smash: the Barrel Throw.
I've been really hoping that DK would get some kind of barrel-based move. I mean, it's just not right that he doesn't have one. I'm not sure that they could make a pure and simple barrel toss cool enough to be a final smash, though. I mean... everyone can kind of do that already.
However, while making this post, suddenly Rambi dawns on me.
Tonight is going to be Metroid related damnit...My guess is still that its going to be ZSS Profile, but it could be Samus's Final Smash, Ridley(Could easily be a Character or Assist), Etecoons(Id love them to be a character, but likely an assist trophy), or Metroid(Assist trophy). Not likely the Metroid stage because we just had a stage on Friday though.

I'm going with B moves for this update. From a non-newcomer character.

Final smash or assist trophy. Either way.
Dude, it's Donkey Kong.
Wailing on the bongos and sending out shockwaves through the level would fit perfectly.

Plus it would suck for the people holding the remote NES style.

Yeah. So would Rambi. Your point?
You do realize that I commented on the barrel toss as a final smash, not bongos, right? They're different ideas.

Yes, and I was proposing my personal Final Smash idea. If DK doesn't have something Bongo related, then the world has no justice.
I would much rather see Rambi than bongos. I think I'd prefer Rambi as an assist trophy (a wish which I think will probably come true), but if we could only get one or the other, I'd rather get Rambi.

Which is in questionable legal ground, IIRC. I don't know how much of the DK intellectual property Nintendo kept when they sold Rare.

Well theyve used Diddy since then, so I would assume that all the characters Rare created for the DK Franchise remain with Nintendo.
I don't think Rambi is nearly imposing enough to be a final smash. I mean, think about it:
Link: "I use the power of the triforce to hit my opponents with a vicious attack combo!"
Pikachu: "I become a pure ball of concentrated energy and obliterate my foes!"
Bowser: "I transform into a massive unstoppable beast!"
Mario: "I unleash a huge firestorm that covers the entire stage! What's your final smash, DK?"
DK: "hey look it's a rhinoceros"
DK's final smash should be the entire Kong Klan coming up and just kicking the shit out of everything. Like about 10 Assist Trophys but each do different things. Funky Kandy Kranky Diddy a-go-go.

Nostalgia GET!
Although nothing says "your shit's about to get crushed by a battle frigate" like the original tune.
I love that music as well.
I can almost hear all the old noises the team used to make.

As for the next thread, maybe Speakeasy should make it? That way he could post and update the scores.

Yup. DK characters are Nintendo property. All of them. If it was a "Donkey Kong" game, then the elements within belong to Nintendo.
I'm sure Rare would have made a deal of Mario Kart if it wasn't. What with that DK kart that has Rambi's head on it.
