The veteran brawler and king of swing Donkey Kong will be making a return in Super Smash Bros. Brawl (http://themushroomkingdom.net/games/ssbb). All his movesets, including his giant punch, are intact, and promise to leave the ultimate headache.

Meh. Looks like a downgrade (simply updating his Melee appearance would have been better, I think). But what do I care, Donkey Kong isn't one of my characters anyway. The 15-second video is nice.

Oooh.  :)
He doesn't look too different.  Just a little more detailed, is all.  
Glad to see his hair tuft in good shape.

Hm, was expecting his 'Jungle Beat' appearance. With the gigantic forearms and dark brown fur. A bit of a dissapointment.

A downgrade? It looks much better than the Melee model, much like every other Brawl model thus far.

Not in realism. In style. But as I said, it doesn't matter much to me.

I missed this update. When I looked at the site, I saw the video and assume that it was today's update.

Bird Person, I think for Brawl they were trying to make characters look more like they do in their respective games (see Bowser) while still making them look good (again, Bowser).
