You're thinking of Sm4sh Ridley, not Other M Ridley. Other M Ridley never had his upper jaw move and his model was much better in terms of rigging and textures. Project M actually knew what they were doing with him, unlike whatever idiot(s) was responsible for that mess on Pyrosphere.
I mean, my design doesn't necessarily need to hold items in his mouth/tail, Donkey Kong is usually on all fours and holds items in his hands.
Agreed, I kinda like the situation we're in, if he's going to be revealed then the Vergeben leak has provided us with the perfect setup for it. If it hadn't been for the leak the Ridley fanbase would likely have been much more subdued and a lot of the old-timers wouldn't have checked back in on a regular basis, basically the buildup and "last stand gathering" wouldn't have been there, but at the same time it being proven right would still make everyone overjoyed as the leak still has a very real chance of being wrong, it is afterall just a text leak.
Knuckle-walking is not quite the same as normal quadrupedal movement. It lets DK hold items without any changes to walking and running animations. Having giant hands also helps.
I'm not the mod maker, so I won't dispute that.
I meeeeean, everyone here should be fine then, since Ridley was in that leak too. That's one's such a last minute fake though. Too much detail and too "detatched" for such a big deal.
Basically, there is a separate set of animations for different hand positions that are set to override all keyframes of certain bones on every other animations, starting with the bone set as the hand bone (i.e. everything past the wrist will be locked in a certain position regardless of what the original animation is).
I'm personally here because I was here last time, and there's no way I would have missed it, the leaks and rumours had nothing to do with me coming or even staying here either, if anything I would personally delete every leak and rumour regarding Super Smash Bros. if i could. Because if it's true, well it was going to happen anyway we just found out a bit earlier, if it's false, then people who have built their hopes up just end up having them smashed. Then you have to take into account some people have multiple sources, so just because one leak/rumour is true doesn't mean they all are, and some of the so called predicted leaks are pretty safe. For example Just Cause 4, another game in the Jump series, if they provided Jump Force not just a game in the jump series I would have been more convinced. Only leaks I personally consider credible is the Fallout 76 one, that was detailed enough and pretty much got all the info right, without having to resort to being vague, like such and such series is getting a new game.
TIL, thanks for the lesson.
Like have him walk as if he's holding a hemisphere in each hand? That would work. But if you mean do it like on this screenshot, then that would make it worse.
Yeah I don’t think the sheet itself is an actual sheet by Nintendo as it looks unprofessional as **** but if its real it is possible that whoever made decided to put out a picture leak than a text leak because a picture leak like this would be believed more.
Something like this? His palm is vertical so potential clipping issues that might occur is his knuckles clip into the floor or his hand hovers slightly above the ground.
Guardian/Detective Pikachu sized please!
Now that's better.
Using the Z might not work if his wings are Prime or even Other M sized.
Ridley won #1 on Newcomers, and Link won #1 on Veterans...Ridley was voted #1 in Resetera's newcomer poll.
But really, nice to see Ridley retain his support all these years. We'll see what will happen tomorrow.
Well, I mean, that's why I've been hovering these boards for the last week.
This. So much this.
Oh please. We're not children. This may be a point where someone has their expectations too high if a leak being wrong is going to hurt them *that* much, especially at this point.
I don't see any rules. I've been at this game a *very* long time. If I want to hype about some last minute hope, I'm going to. This kind of thing feels like a big projection, I really dunno why you'd bring it in here to ruin the mood.
Do you really have to be such a downer?
Eisendrachen
is right. Until there is a full confirmation from Nintendo themselves, keep all "leaks" as rumors and nothing more, even if they have a very high credibility. We need to be prepared in case the worst case scenario does happen. But let's be cautiously optimistic too.
But how many times does it need to be reiterated that we're all (mostly) adults and should be able to temper our own expectations? Now, I don't see *anyone* here saying that Vegeben's stuff or any other leak is 100% credible. Or that they 100% expect to see Riddles tomorrow. We've been burned many times, but having this last bit of hope has frankly been good for the community.
Anyways We only have literally one day left before the direct and we'll learn out whenever or not our #1 leaker is right or was wrong. We've come a long ways and hopefully we'll either see a finish line or be swept back to square one (since I don't see Ridley being announced after E3). If Ridley is a fully playable character, we weep with joy, if he is a playable boss, well we'll weep with either sorrow or happiness that he is finally playable in some way, and if he isn't announced at all, prepare for a violent storm.
I wish us all the best of luck in 24 hours. Let's fight til the bitter end!
Someone change the majora's mask moon for Ridley, and we would pretty much have it.
This is the scary part, and my biggest worry. Let's really hope Ridley doesn't fall into the "some wrong" category tomorrow
He said the Ridley source is the same as the one that gave him the Jump Force/Castlevania information, and this source is one of many he has that also mentioned Ridley.
