Mario Multimedia Roster, Updated

MARIO MULTIMEDIA ROSTER

And here's the new and improved multimedia roster, including the Koopa General from the brand new movie! Who ya mainin', if different?

TV Donkey Kong

TV DONKEY KONG

One of the earliest animated adaptations of the Mario series came in the Saturday Supercade, a show full of shorts based around various arcade icons, among them Donkey Kong. The shorts featured the big ape as having escaped from the circus, his handlers Mario and Pauline chasing him around to try and capture him again.

This version of Donkey Kong was quite different in persona and abilities, having a cheery and well-meaning, but mischievous, nature that ended up getting him into trouble a lot through his own naivete, but allowed him to be clever enough to always slip through Mario and Pauline's grasp in the end.

As a fighters, Donkey Kong will be quick but also powerful, with huge heavy strikes capable of taking out most foes. His moveset will be based on his various shenanigans that lead to his escapes, as well as a few other gimmicks of the show itself.

Likelihood rating: Non-game
