Attacks fit for a King!

As if telling us that King Dedede is in Brawl yesterday wasn't enough, Sakurai has gone and shown us some of King Dedede's Special Moves!

His Up B move, the Super Dedede Jump, is easily identified as a throwback to his classic jump attack from the early Kirby games.

With his Side B move, King Dedede is able to chuck Waddle Dees, Waddle Doos, and even Gordos at his enemies!

As if his hammer wasn't already large enough, using Dedede's Down B move exposes a large jet engine inside of it, allowing him to charge up and attack with the speed and strength of a rocket!

Truly fitting moves for King Dedede, in my opinion.

Poor Waddle Dees... :(

Wow I can't believe I'm saying this but King Dee Dee Dee is cool in this game. Super jump, jet hammer, and he ... throw the Gordos, Waddledoos, and the WaddleDees (poor waddledees they should be assist tropie charater and use an army).

His special moves are awesome. I can't wait to play as him.

Sure, the Waddle Dees aren't an Assist Trophy and they don't attack in an army, but the Waddle Dees do stay after you throw them. I guess it could be possible to make a Waddle Dee army... >:D

The lack of neutral B frustrates me. I wish to know what Kirby's copy ability for him will be. (I'm thinking, sucking up, but instead of swallowing, firing the enemy back out like a canonball)
Posted by Dark Hamsterlord on 7:24am October 26th, 2007
Cool attacks! Me thinks his standard B involves sucking. Wonder what his Final Smash is gonna be...

Why is Waddle Doo's Eye look so low polygon? I can count the number polygons for his eye...one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eye-t!
LOLOLOLOLOL!!
Am I brutally honest to you guys?
Posted by Sonny the Domain Sailor on 8:39am October 26th, 2007
NO! NOT THE WADDLE DEES/DOOS! I also wonder why the pictures here are a little bit...low. I wonder if his FS is going to involve Dark Matter in some sort of way...
Posted by MasterYoungLink on 8:52am October 26th, 2007
Wow! lots of kirby stuff! Waddle dee, waddle doo, Dedede, metaknight Knuckle Joe (or as Ivy called him on deviantart, Hamster Joe) spicy curry item, and of course, Kirby.

I'm satisfied with the amount of Kirby stuff, But I think a neat assist character would be Adeline. She could paint a bunch of items, or even paint enemies to beat up opponents

0.0 Bizarre... but totally awsome! XD I can't wait till I can try out those moves for myself! Dedede
Posted by Equidna_rojo on 9:37am October 26th, 2007
I'll bet he'll just smack his hammer for his B special. His FS will probably be a massive shockwave from a massive hammerblow to the ground.

The treatment of Waddle Dees in this game is and outrage! First they were being crushed by DeDeDe's immense largeness because they had to carry him, but how did His Royal Fatness repay them? By using them as projectiles! Although his other moves are cool... HIS HAMMER IS A TRANSFORMER!

The Bazooka Hammer is for the win! And the reason why I like Nintendo so much. =D

@ Dark Hamsterlord:

Check the bottom-right screenshot of http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/characters/kingdedede.html.

You see the King, Kind Dedede KIRBY, and Meta Knight.

That means: Nintendo's workin' on ability hats! SWEET.

reg. b button is most likey to be suck-ing and spitting faster than kirby.
Posted by kirbyo on 7:09am October 27th, 2007
A few days before this information was let out I told my friend "I sure hope Dedede is in Brawl" and it now it is!
Posted by Jason on 5:33pm October 27th, 2007
his Final Smash could be him using Mecha Dedede to pound his opponents!

Woot stage builder !!!!

Posted by skyscraperds on 6:39am October 29th, 2007
hey why do waddle dees work for him any way?
Posted by kirby ace on 11:30am October 29th, 2007
Waddle Dees work for King Dedede because he's their king. Pretty obvious, actually.
Posted by Kosaku on 1:59pm October 29th, 2007
Kirby's moves are still better! Kirby is better that King Dedede and Meta Knight put together times 4! King Dedede's cruelty to waddle dees is well, cruel. You people can't understand his cruelty.

w00t! We got Meta's FS tonight!

TOH!
Posted by HylianFox on 12:59am November 1st, 2007
Well we've seen Kirby's final smash Cook Kirby and Meta Kinght's Galaxy Slash (is that right) so I have to say King Dee Dee Dee final smash is he summons an army of Wadle Dee Dee Dee and maybe even Gordos and Wadle Doos.
Posted by Dean on 3:52am November 1st, 2007
That's one heck of a hammer. xD Hurrah for Dedede being in, anyways.

I can only wonder what his final smash will be. Hmm.

Oh, and Zero Two should totally be an Assist Trophy.

WOW!

I'm sorry if I'm being rude but why wasn't there a SMASHBROS DOJO UPDATE about Meta Knight's Final Smash???
Posted by Lord of Darkness on 8:19am November 4th, 2007
(responds)
Because MetaKnight's Final Smash is soooo STUPID that it shouldn't be an update here!!!
Everyone who is reading this! Please remember in Kirby Super Star, MetaKnight had this amazing tornado attack that can sweep across the screen and is almost IMPOSSIBLE TO AVOID!!! That would've been a PERFECT FINAL SMASH for MetaKnight but NOOOOOOOOOOO. Here come's MetaKnight and his...short range attack pulled out from the bottom of the barrel. At least it had the word "galaxia" in it. That's a reference to the anime, right?Anyway, I hope you can have more than one final smash for each character so that MetaKnight can pull that SWEEPING TORNADO OF UNNAVOIDABLE OBLIVION off. Good grief, people. Do some research. Well, here's to another week of Smash bros updates and to next week. They might even show us a Sonic Stagew if we've been really good.
Posted by Sonny the RANTER! on 6:34pm November 4th, 2007
The hammer is highly exagerrated and removes realistic elements from the game.
Posted by Escargoon on 4:23pm November 7th, 2007
OMG so cool even though I hate king dedede
