User blog comment:7amood99/Diddy Kong In February?/@comment-4696205-20140213084538

I've been thinking the same thing too, according to my prediction blog that I've posted not too long ago. Although I don't use him due to his complicated move sets, I'd bet he'll appear as a returning veteran. He's always Donkey Kong's sidekick and series regular anyways.

However, although maybe possibilities for Dixie to join as additional new comer, I doubt Cranky'll join in since he's an old kong.
