STOP IT. IT'S NOT K DASH!

SORT IT OUT!!!! HIS NAME IS NOT K-DASH!!!

HE IS A CLONE THEREFOR HE IS A DERIVITAVE!!

DERIVITIVES ARE CALLED "PRIMES"

HIS NAME IS K-PRIME

LIKE OPTIMUS PRIME

HOLY SHIT, TAKE SOME MATH CLASSES!!

f[x]=x^5 <- this is a function
f'[x]= 5x^4 <- this is its derivitive

THE DERIVITIVE IS NOTATED WITH A ' AND IS CALLED PRIME!!!

EDIT: IM NOT A FUCKING ENGLISH MAJOR!!

No offense, but after 3 years and 4 games Magnaflux, who really gives a shit on how you pronounce "K'"?

Hell, when I first saw his name back in '99, I just called him K (the letter) and ignored the PRIME/DASH part.

And if you're still insistant on proving that it's pronounced "K-PRIME", then I'd guess you'd have to tell the guys at SNK/Playmore (along with most of the Asian continent) who created him that his name IS in fact, K-PRIME. <img src="graemlins/spock.gif" border="0" alt="[Spock]" />

I agree with your mathematical analysis, however Maxima refers to him in '99 ending as "Dash-man" which is why he has that name. The only place I've seen him called K prime is on the KOF '99 US PSOne version on the back cover.

And yes, I am bored right now.

Magnaflux · Oct 11, 2002

still. It should be pronounced as K prime. It ruins my geeky engineering analysis of videogames.

gutted

I thought I'd just chime in and say: I LIKE CAEK!!!

Thank you, I accept paypal

ray_7 · Oct 11, 2002

K-prime?

It actually sounds kinda cool...

SonGohan · Oct 11, 2002

I bet it does for.. $50 shipped....

we are doing derivatives and primes and stuff in calculus right now

K' reads "Kay Prime" <img src="graemlins/makeface.gif" border="0" alt="[Make Face]" />

Deuce · Oct 11, 2002

Actually, the Japanese has it as "Kei-Dasshu."

Ergo, it is K-Dash... like it or not, mathematically correct or not, that's what's official, so that's what it is.

Just another useless kyo clone..

K has two names...

K' Prime (as said in the KoF 99 Instruction Booklet)

K-Dash (as said in many K FAQs, also I think Maxima gave K the nickname "Dashman" in KoF 2000)

Solidus Snake · Oct 11, 2002

I guess K9999 should be K'''''''....K^9999
The 9998th derivative of K'.

Deuce · Oct 11, 2002

No, no, the proper pronunciation of K9999 is "Kay-Four-Yawn."

It's all in code, don't you know.

Orochi_Flava · Oct 11, 2002

I don't think K' even care's that he is a Kyo clone anymore...After 99 he lost his intro with kyo, and hasnt been looking for him...wonder what happened with that lil plot.

Yep yep.... it's definitely K Dash. That's what the Japanese says so there's no mistaking it.

Meta-Ukyo · Oct 11, 2002

In France it's K Prime, that's how we naturally read it anyway.

Daisuke Jigen · Oct 11, 2002

Looking at my US KoF2k poster, its explicitly states "(K-dash)".

k'_127 · Oct 11, 2002

not sure ,but I think it's written "K DASH" in 2000 before a match (before they say "round # -FIGHT")

I prefer K DASH

insaneben · Oct 11, 2002

All of you are wrong!
It's pronounced K-rispy!

EX_Andy · Oct 11, 2002

Phonetically, it's pronounced "pointless, ugly, shit-character."

While I like K's design, I must say that his moves are quite dull to behold... especially his DMs. Bleah.

Hot Chocolate · Oct 11, 2002

Sorry i find him boring from design all the way to his moves

STOP IT. IT'S NOT K DASH!
