22. Diddy Kong (Donkey Kong Country)
Quote: After all we did to get them back last time? Donkey Kong would go crazy if he lost his bananas again!
What, were you expecting some deep quote or something? Its Diddy Kong, man! Theres nothing deep about my love for Diddy. Hes just a blast to play as in just about any game he appears in. He was always my character of choice in the first two Donkey Kong Country games. I preferred his quick and flashy style over DKs lumbering, rolling self. I know Dixies helicopter spin was all kinds of broken in DKC2, but I still liked using Diddy whenever I could. I like the cartwheel move and blasting through a bunch of enemies at once with it. Good times. Diddys one of those guys I love primarily because I love the games hes involved in and I love playing as him. Its pretty simple.
Diddys also a lot of fun to use in Brawl. Im generally a fan of quick characters who can play all in your face, so hes fun for me. I know a lot of people think hes really annoying because of the banana peels and stuff like that, but I enjoy playing as him. His rocket barrel things are pretty cool, too. And while Im not as big of a fan of Diddy Kong Racing as some people, it was a pretty fun game. Always played as Diddy in that one, too. Didnt really like any of the other guys.
So yeah, thats about it. This is about as short and simple of a writeup as can be because theres not a lot to elaborate on here. Diddys just a cool dude I like to play as a lot because hes in great games and has fun moves. He also has a cool design, and hes an even bigger hero than Yoshi, Link, or even Mario! The Hero Coins prove it!
