Isn't Kraid the main character for Metroid?

Why isn't he in again?

King Kraid Rool?

And that Giga Bowser/Kraid Brawl mod was kinda cool, not that it could've been done that much better.

If it didn't start out as one, it sure will end as one.

Moveset-wise... what the heck would his recovery be? Assuming, of course, we're not going with the "playable stage" idea. :p
His recovery is becoming huge and eating the stage.

I think we all know crocomire is the TRUE villain of metroid.

EDIT:Lets just say that Kraid AND ridley got in SSB4. what would you guys say?
I would be fine with it, personally... Samus, Zero Suit Samus, Ridley (resized), Kraid (resized), AND Mother Brain (Super Metroid version and resized). The original main characters of the Metroid series for the win (I personally consider Zero Suit Samus a modernized version of Justin Bailey Samus).

Fake Kraid as playable character with Real Kraid FS.

Alt costume: Real Fake Kraid.




....Or instead, go with Meta Kraid, who's been cut down to size due to having no legs and all.
He can move like Jabba the Hutt. :awesome:


I don't which would be scarier; the teeth or the giant belly that slides towards you. :laugh:

Other M is not a metroid game.

I actually really like MB (Everything I've read about her) and I'm currently doing a Metroid: Other M Blind LP with a friend (I just co-commentate) so yeah.
Well, I'm sure the game is much more enjoyable if your blind

alright gents let's discuss the pros and cons of including kraid

PROS:
He's Kraid
He isn't Ridley
He is from Metroid


CONS:
None to speak of

Thank you xpnc for bringing some much needed perspective to this debate.
These arguments are identical to the Ridley arguments and hold just as much weight.

Idk Ridley is too big and Kraid is bigger than Ridley. I'm gonna need some more convincing.

Maybe someone should post the concept art of Kraid for Prime 1 or something. That might convince me.

Every series is getting their own villain, so why not Metroid? I fully support Kraid's implementation into Smash 4.

You realize everyone in this thread is joking around right?

Some more evidence I've compiled that size doesn't matter:

Olimar is 2cm tall in his games (which is about an inch)

Kirby is 20cm tall which is around 8 inches
/any Ridley discussion
