Talk:Ground Pound

It's possible to ground pound in Donkey Kong Country, so that's almost certainly where it originated. This Wiki calls it a "Hand Slap" in the page's article, though. Boomsta 02:41, 24 November 2010 (EST)
 * Is it very similar? It's been a long time since I played DKC. Vincent   Tran  ParatroopaSMW.gif 02:45, 24 November 2010 (EST)
 * The move is nearly identical. Donkey Kong leans over and starts hitting the ground with his hands, alternating between the two. It's even just as rhythmic as it is in its later incarnations. Believe me, as somebody who played all of the Smash Bros. for dozens of hours, the move is the same. The only difference between DKC and Brawl is that there are no shockwaves in DKC.
