E3 2007 Media | Donkey Kong Spotted in New Smash Bros. Trailer

By Slydevil 11.07.2007 14

Are you being buried by all the streaming E3 bulletins? Tough. It's that delightful time of year, particularly when one clever clogs spots something that the rest don't.

In the new trailer for Super Smash Bros. Brawl shown off amidst the Nintendo conference, as it reaches its final milliseconds, Donkey Kong comes barreling down from atop the screen. Though it appears relatively conclusive, the only question to ask is the brute an assist? Or a fully playable character?

Here's what to look for:

ONOUDIDNT.

Yeah, that's an awesome discovery. I wonder if it was purposful? Or an accident? (Woulda been more awesome if it was an accident :3)

Can't wait to see what he looks like closer up, if Nintendo leaked this on purpose, I wouldn't be surprised to see him on the website tomorrow.

I think he's a fully playable character atleast thats what it looks like because I thought you had to activate assist trophys.

I'll bet it was by accident. Now they'll have to officially announce DK on the SSBB Dojo site. XD

I wonder why he didn't say anything about Brawl's wifi play.

I doubt he is a trophy player, there is no way they would do that with DK. [LS]

I reckon it's 'cos it doesn't exist.

plus you can see Pikachu attacking him, whereas assists are invincible.

Can't remember exactly where I read it, but I swear they said their intention was to have it WiFi Capable. 'Suppose that could of changed, though.

Well he is not a playable character Mario Party... They could leave him as a trophy char... I hope not though

EXACTLY... i dont see why everyone is gettin excited for.... hes been in oth games... and he is a Nintendo legend... so it would be pretty fucking stupid if Nintendo didnt put him on the game! Smilie

I see all these people insulting the Nintendo corporation because of the lack of mature content. Yet there is something about Nintendo (at least their games) that strikes a certain unadulterated feeling of joy!!!  Pokemon Y - 1048-9263-5562

What would Smash Bros. be with out the Kong....


Mike Gee of iZINE said, "...The Verve, as he [Richard Ashcroft] promised, had become the greatest band in the world. Most of the critics agreed with him. Most paid due homage. The Verve were no longer the question mark or the clich�. They were the statement and the definition."
