'''K.K. Slider''' ({{ja|とたけけ|Totakeke}}, ''Totakeke'') is a character in the {{uv|Animal Crossing}} series of video games.


'''K.K. Slider''' (real name: '''Totakeke''') is a character in the ''{{uv||Animal Crossing}}'' series of video games. He is a musician who plays music in the coffee shop (in ''[[nookipedia:Animal Crossing: Wild World|Animal Crossing: Wild World]]'') or the Train Station (in the [[nookipedia:Animal Crossing|original game]]) every Saturday night, from 8:00 PM to midnight. After players listen to K.K.'s music, he hands out a tape recording, which they can play on a radio back at their house. Requesting "K.K. Song" between 8pm and midnight on Saturday nights will lead to the known tune [[Kazumi Totaka|Totaka's Song]] being played. He is based on [[Kazumi Totaka]], who is also called "Totakeke", and plays the guitar.
==Origin==
K.K. Slider is a special character who can be found in all of the ''Animal Crossing'' games since the original, performing on Saturday from 8:00 PM (or all day, albeit will not take any song requests until 6:00 PM in ''{{s|nookipedia|Animal Crossing: New Horizons}}'') to midnight at different locations depending on the game (such as the {{s|nookipedia|Train Station}}, {{s|nookipedia|The Roost}}, {{s|nookipedia|Club LOL}}, or {{s|nookipedia|Resident Services}}). If the [[Villager|player]] speaks to him, he will play them a song and then give them a recording (or aircheck) of that song that they can play via a stereo at their house. On non-Saturday nights in ''New Leaf'' and on the {{s|nookipedia|archipelago}} on some nights in the ''[[nookipedia:Animal Crossing: New Horizons - Happy Home Paradise|Happy Home Paradise]]'' DLC for ''New Horizons'', he plays under the guise of "DJ KK" (who appears as a [[List of SSB4 trophies (Animal Crossing series)|trophy in ''SSB4'']] and a [[List of spirits (Animal Crossing series)|spirit in ''SSBU'']]). ''Super Smash Bros.'' takes from his performances in other games and has him only show up on Saturday nights.

==In ''Super Smash Bros. Melee''==
==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''==
In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', K.K. Slider appears as a trophy with the title "Totakeke," his real name. At the time of the game, Animal Crossing had only come out in Japan on the N64 and thus was not well known in North America. If one looks at Totakeke's trophy when the language is set to English, it says "Future Release", but if the language is changed to Japanese, it will give both the Nintendo 64 and GameCube dates of release.
In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', K.K. Slider appears as a [[trophy]] with his guitar with the title "Totakeke", his Japanese name. As ''Animal Crossing'' had not yet been released in America at the time of ''Melee''{{'}}s release, his American trophy puts his home game as "Future Release".
