Where? WHERE ARE THEY, NINTENDO?!
(By THEY I mean : King K Rool, the Kremlings, Kalypso, Kludge, Funky Kong, Tiny Kong as a teen, Candy Kong, Chunky Kong, Lanky Kong and Swanky Kong)
I'm glad Cranky, P Diddy, Dixie and Rambi are in though.

Nintendo is just going to sell a "new" (probably remake) p diddy kong racing in 2 years, mark my words, they have zero creativity left in their entire company.

All of those characters would have to get redesigned for Bonanza and that was probably out of the scope for this game, instead focusing on new characters.

Are you sure? K Rool was kept intact for Smash.

>>713021909
DK64 remake for sure will happen

>>713022387
Diddy and Dixie both got redesigns, the other Kongs definitely would too. Cranky didn't need one because he was already close enough to DK's arcade look.
>Are you sure? K Rool was kept intact for Smash.
He was redesigned in that game too, they would have to go through that again (smaller crown for gameplay reasons, mix of old and new, designs)
If anything, he's the one character that's in.

I just saw a pic of them on Rambi and I don't see the difference : what did they change?
(They look closer to their Retro than their Rare look, especially the rhino)

>no more monoeye
>have teeth and nails
>Nintendo logo is now replaced with a "DD" pin, Dixie's Rareware logo is replaced with a "DX" pin on her beret
>overall proportion changes

>>713021989
How is redesigning characters out of scope? You're an idiot. The Kremlings skeletons are in the game and K Rool will be the final boss.

>>713023710
K ROOL IS IN THE GAME?????????????
t. didnt watch the direct

>>713023836

no
People are huffing hopium becuase there’s crocodile motifs in some areas.

>>713021650 (OP)
For what it’s worth I actually like the new monkey villains quite a bit.

>>713024296
>They all have kong in the name
I'm a DK newfag, haven't every other Kong always been good guys or at least on your side? Have they ever been evil before?

>>713023710
Besides the main four, no other Kongs are in the game retard. That's evidence enough.

>>713024435
Manky kongs were barrel throwers in DKC1 and jungle beat had evil kongs as the villains/bosses

>>713024296
I will say, these designs are a thousand times better than broodalshit

>>713023710
May God read you and say it to Miyamoto... Pauline stayed kinda hidden until the direct, maybe he will be the second vig surprise.
>>713023836
Hopefully, but so far we only saw the crocodile skeletons.
>>713026619
Agree : they lool way less generic.

>>713026619
it's pretty surprising them and all the odyssey original designs never appeared in like mario party or mario kart

>>713028516
probably because they're shit
even the Sprixie Princess was in Mario Tennis

>>713021909
Zero chance they give a fuck about puff daddy kong racing when Mario Kart will sell 50+ million without them ever even mentioning it again
