Bowser's size to Mario's looks equivalent to their games. I don't get why you're saying Bowser is bigger than Ridley.

Hero and Villain are about the same size in the beginning.
Bowser's tail is bigger than Mario. His face alone is too big for smash right? It can't possibly be scaled down.
This size difference is similar to how big Ridley is on Gameboy Advance games.
Holy ****, Nintendo villains just keep getting bigger and bigger it seems. No way this guy could get into Smash. Even at this perspective, Mario wouldn't even be a snack for Bowser.
Bowser is the size of a ****ing castle and ****.
Dont know what game this is from, but Ridley is ugly as **** damn.
This must be the biggest Ridley has ever been. His wingspan is massive, but in most games, his body is 3-5 times the size of Samus.
Bowser meanwhile gets to be the size of Kraid (or bigger).
One problem here is that Bowser seems to deal often with magic and ****, and Ridley keeps being reborn and cloned and all kinds of **** so they could be any size even in a main series game.
The more I look into it, the more I feel Ridley is just really ****ing ugly. He looks nice in Brawl, but in metroid games he doesn't look very appealing or smart at all.

See Tesh, now you're just being silly because YOU are ignoring facts and cherry picking.
Metroid: Zero Mission pretty much retcons the original Metroid games.
Oh look...he's pretty much 2-3 Samus...es (Sami? Sammis?) tall. Also, Ridley has always...repeat ALWAYS been depicted as giant flying space pirate dragon. Hell, this is what Sakurai does with him in Brawl with SSBB. His depiction of Ridley is accurate and faithful to the game series.
Bowser usually grows large because of magic or the power of Power Stars. This happens in the NSMB games or in Mario Galaxy. It can even be argued that Giga Bowser is a good reference to this in Melee...he's defeated and comes back because lolmagic.
His canon size is slightly larger than Mario...if you want a realistic size comparison, at least use the Mario Kart games or Mario Tennis or some ****. He's not 20 feet tall, unlike a certain purple dragon.
Your obsession with Ridley being in the next Smash amuses me too much.

I just explained to you why Mario Kart/Tennis don't matter. They are spinoffs like Smash. He is taken down in size to be playable.
In canon games, Bowser is never small anymore. Even if it is because of power stars, its safe to say he never goes into battle without them at this point.
Once again, your paper thin size argument is just a double standard. I'm not obsessed with Ridley, I'm just on the side of logic here. The whole "flying" thing I addressed as well. Simply have a slow walk w/ a hovering dash animation like charizard takes care of that. Obviously he doesn't need a running animation.

This is just too good...
Your denial of facts makes this just sad...
Keep fighting the inevitable for whatever reason. I really hope Sakurai puts in Dark Samus just so he can cause a ****storm for Ridley fanatics like you.

Lmao good job picking Mario Galaxy where Bowser is the size of a planet due to magic. You picked all these fights where normal Bowser is upscaled wtf?
I'm too lazy to find more but watch these vids, 90% of the fights Bowser is a reasonable size to Mario http://www.screwattack.com/news/top-10-bowser-boss-battles

Zano, I just saw your post.
Why would you be excited for a port of a six-old game filled with microtransactions and some of the worst MH gameplay?
Don't fall for it...
Speaking of falling, I have bad feelings about footstools returning.

whobo is less than 30 days away. register plz.
I'm arguing purely on facts here. You guys are the ones ignoring all the evidence I brought up (often assuming the opposite).
You guys will so blatantly ignore my points, its impossible to even argue with you.
Don't care if Ridley gets in, my favorites are (presumably) already in.

It feels like I'm at gamefaqs. People are arguing over small things as if they matter. IMO just wait until the game comes out. Does no good for people to spend days arguing over something on a forum that won't change anything.
Funny how all you can do is keep saying "no you are wrong", but you find it impossible to actually refute anything I've said.
Anyway, is anyone gonna play ghosts on Wii U? Nothing seems more convenient for me than playing cod on the gamepad (and i feel like my ps3 wont last much longer). I've heard COD is a wasteland with some gametypes being too empty to even play on Wii U.

Nope, its actually a pretty good game. I know its cool to hate on anything popular, but its fun and fast paced with all the proper guilty pleasures of multiplayer gaming.
The sad thing is (much like smash), no one has really shown up and done it better despite having an obviously good template to work with. I'd love to play COD in a more sci-fi setting. Something with the craziness of timesplitters or with the speed of UT2k4.

Dude, I've given you examples. It's okay if you CHOOSE to ignore the truth, even if it's obvious in the oh....200 or so Mario games out there.
But I expect nothing less in Tesh's Wonderland where there's a McD's on every corner and if it's not a McD's, it's given a bad texture hack to look like one.

so, halo?
another" no you are wrong" post. i'm not even going to respond to your "nuh-uh" posts anymore. There is barely anything to respond to.
I welcome the idea of being wrong in an argument, but you seem to be incapable of even trying to do that. Only person to post anything relevant is P4.
Btw, Target is having B2G1 free on wii u games this week. Anyone interested? My plan is to scoop up W101 finally and maaaaaaaybe Pikmin since its 40$ each.

For real?
I've already proved Bowser's regular size and already disproved you grossly misguided Mario Galaxy examples, you're ignoring it.
I've already listed Ridley facts, but you're just hurrrr durr, don't care.
I have no problem being wrong, but only when it's wrong. Not "you're wrong, because I'm misinterpreting everything" which is what you've done.

I posted picture of Bowser's "regular size". He was only small on NES and he immediately got way bigger and bigger and bigger as long as the system he was on allowed for it.
I actually found a pretty much perfect article on gamesradar with screenshots and everything.
http://www.gamesradar.com/the-ever-changing-sizes-of-mario-and-bowser/
The picture I linked was actually from Super Mario Sunshine (i knew i didnt recognize that fight). Takes you through every era of Mario, essentially proving everything I posted here. You can clearly see Mario and Bowser are only of similar sizes on NES and Spinoff games (mostly to make bowser playable). In every main series game since, Mario is no larger than Bowser's head (and usually small enough to fit in his mouth).
http://www.gamesradar.com/the-ever-changing-sizes-of-samus-ridley-and-kraid/
Another one for Metroid, as you can see Ridley follows the same pattern as Bowser. Metroid has way less games than Mario however, so obviously no spinoff games with Ridley playable and only 1 NES entry. If anything this says more about the real reason Ridley could be left out of Smash forever. Metroid just isn't nearly as popular as the other Nintendo stuff. Probably doesn't help that he doesn't have as much personality as other villains (even though he is supposed to be really smart or something...).
Those 2 articles alone basically prove that Bowser is bigger than Ridley. Even in his smallest recent appearance (NSMB), Bowser is still pretty damn big.
Tell me more about Dark Samus though. How would she have her own moveset, isn't it just....Samus but evil?
On a related note, what characters do you think will be added? As I mentioned earlier, I feel like Nintendo has scraped the bottom of the barrel already, leaving us with less newcomers this time, or some bizarre characters. At this point, who can they really add that could bring some hype? We've all heard K Rool and Mewtwo, but what else can they do and even more importantly, what does this mean for Smash 5? There will be basically nothing at that point (unless more 3rd parties are allowed in).
Maybe W101 could gain popularity by then or Bayonetta could be worked in as the trilogy completes. At this, I feel suddenly more heartbroken than ever over rareware's death. I wonder which entry of Smash would have seen Banjo and Conker and anything else Rareware might have created.
edit: i think after the ddos attack, this thread now actually functions properly

RT its got screenshots from the games. What more do you want? Are you saying that stuff is photoshopped or something? I show you proof and now you just want to discredit the entire site?
I know this is alot of information for you to understand, but a 5 year old could look at the pictures and come to a logical conclusion like "look mommy, bowser is so big!". FFS, its pictures from the actual games man. You might as well discredit the entire company that made them at this point.
I'm done, I gave you a neat article that proves my point. If you have something to add thats not in that article (some actual evidence), please present it.
