Miiverse Daily Smash 4 Photos (Closed for its successor)

[Baskerville]

Some of you guys really thought that was Ridley's tail? >.>

Yeah, stupid I know.

 

[Deleted member]

I don't know why, but I feel this week will be boring in terms of new things.

 

[The Real Gamer]

Why would the lighting become purple? I don't think Smash Bros. has those kind of effects, there's no reason for them.
We'll see.

Look at the bolt on the right compared to the top and bottom one's... It's purple just like the one on the left.

 

[MasterOfKnees]

Please guys, let's not go into "He's in the clouds" territory.

 

[Vintage Creep]

Please guys, let's not go into "He's in the clouds" territory.

To be honest he was really in the clouds, but the meaning of that wasn't what we hoped to.

 

[The Real Gamer]

Please guys, let's not go into "He's in the clouds" territory.

Ahh this reminds me of when I was trolling some dude who thought he could see Luigi in the small TV on the Nintendogs stage before he was revealed...

Look at the way you can perfectly fit an L Block right under the orange piece.

Tetris L Block confirmed.

And if you carefully look at the top right corner of the pic you can make out some sort of purple flying thing.

Ridley confirmed?

 

[FalKoopa]

It's just Dedede summoning the power of Ridley for his F-smash.

Jokes aside, it's not Ridley.
First off, It's too small. Second, it hardly looks like him except for the purple.

 

[Berserker.]

You guys are actually taking this seriously?

What the hell am I missing?

 

[Mario & Sonic Guy]

People really do need to calm down with the Pyrosphere stage screenshots. It apparently takes one, and then the Ridley chaos ensues again.

It needs to keep its sourspots, otherwise it's going to be ridiculous as an edge guarding tool considering that it's already very good as that because of its range.

Oddly, Ike's f-smash in Brawl has no sourspot, even though it too is a slow attack. But I guess you can't exactly compare hammers to swords.

You guys are actually taking this seriously?

What the hell am I missing?

Dedede's f-smash is back, and for some dumb reason, people are bringing up the Ridley deconfirmation stuff once again.

 

[Fenrir VII]

You guys can debate this, but I truly believe that Ridley is actually in this picture.
First of all, let's stop talking about the lightning effect. That's clearly just part of the attack, and is not what I'm referring to.

Spoiler

Looking at this, it's pretty clear to me that there's a purple object, the same shade as Ridley BEHIND the attack (as the lighting effects on the attack slightly change the shade due to transparency.
The left area seems to show a white claw on the end of the purple object, but that's conjecture. The shape made in the 2 highlighted areas is believable, if he is in the background.

Again, I understand there are differing opinions, but I think this one is pretty clear.

 

[Vintage Creep]

The only certain thing is that Sakurai is an asshole anyway.

 

[O'kaz A1]

The only certain thing is that Sakurai is an ******* anyway.

Well, sometimes he likes to mess a bit with things and make fun of it. That's the way he is...

(Sakurai: "Laughs"....)

 

[Baskerville]

First it's Cracks and Holes, now it's hit effects?

 

[Fatmanonice]

*walks in*

*notices more Ridley conjecture*

*walks out*

Nope I think those are just lightning bolts fading away besides theres no way ridley would be able to be hidden beside that

Anyway judging by the quote theres no change to the side charge what so ever

 

[Berserker.]

Have you people lost your sanity?

Don't you guys understand?


Ridley's too ****ing big for the stage. He can't appear in it. Boom. Now **** off with the conjectures

Bowser: I resent that remark. I've been as big as a planet, and yet here I am fighting the competition.

 

[Fenrir VII]

Beside? I mean Ridley is in the background behind the attack.

Also, I don't get the lightning bolts desolving because:

1. why would they suddenly be purple?
2. the purple curves are much less jagged than the lightning, and are obviously curved sections.

What if it's curvy purple lightning?

 

[SmasherCat]

So, Ridley sighting debunked? There's no point in arguing it anymore.

 

[Zubyyyy]

Sakurai continues to make me laugh.

Also.

Dedede to be top tier.

Jk.

We all know thats where Ridley's gonna be.

OH WAIT.

UNLESS.

 

[Fenrir VII]

What if it's curvy purple lightning?

Lol. ok you got me.

It's more likely that there's different colored and shaped lightning on a single attack than Ridley is a stage hazard on his own stage...

 

[Berserker.]

Uhuhuhuhuh chain grabs

 

[Phaazoid]

Have you people lost your sanity?

Don't you guys understand?

yeah, this is what I don't get. He's too big to be playable, but he can hide behind dedede's hammer? wat?

 

[IsmaR]

Fantastic way to kick off the first Pyrosphere pic of the year, methinks.

 

[Ghirahilda]

yeah, this is what I don't get. He's too big to be playable, but he can hide behind dedede's hammer? wat?

Because he is in the VERY FAR BACKGROUND? (If it's true...)

 

[Fenrir VII]

One thing I've learned from the great Ridley debates (esp the ones on GFaqs) is that Smashers as a rule have no sense of distance and depth perception.

Look how small he is!!!! He could land on Samus's arm!

Spoiler

 

[Sil]

Also, I don't get the lightning bolts desolving because:

1. why would they suddenly be purple?
2. the purple curves are much less jagged than the lightning, and are obviously curved sections.

1. Maybe because the blue lightning is obscured by a red effect?
2. It's not anymore curved than the end if the visible lightning.

Also, if it was supposed to be Ridley, what body part is that supposed to be? It's too thin to be tail, and way to long to be any of his claws.

 

[Kaye Cruiser]

You idiots are still going on about this? ¦D;

I'd say you're seeing what you want to see. To me, it's just a blue or purple (most likely blue) triangular form against the wall, probably a control panel of some kind hidden behind that hammer. I'll check previous pictures to see if we haven't seen it in this stage before.

Alternatively, that's an on-hit effect almost entirely covered by two characters taking off. Sounds more reasonable than Ridley >.>

Again, I understand there are differing opinions, but I think this one is pretty clear.

It's a lightning effect that's behind Dedede's hammer. It's white in the middle, but blue by the edges, just like the lightnings you can see otherwise. It appears purple because it's under a transparent red effect, and even then it's quite obvious with such a big image like this that it's a common blue-ish purple that's usually used around lightning effects in many video games. It's really not that hard. Even then Ridley doesn't have any body parts that are purple by the edges and white in the middle, and make no mistake, it's purple by the very tip, so it can't be his claw. Furthermore, this "purple" is more blue than Ridley's Other M palette, and that'd be one hell of a tiny Ridley stage hazard too if he can hide behind the head of Dedede's hammer, that'd be needless downscaling, if Ridley's a hazard he might as well be his real size.

Plus, I HIGHLY doubt that Sakurai would publish a picture where Ridley accidentally flies in the background, I mean, in what crazy scenario would anyone publish something like that? It's not something that slips in by accident, of course he'd notice Ridley in the background while taking the picture, and it's not something that's going to be shown as subtly as this. Sakurai is a troll, but not in an accidental way. These theories are getting crazier and crazier, we're down the Brawl road by this point.

 

[Phaazoid]

I don't think you quite understand just how big Ridley is.

lemme try to lend you some scale

 

[Muster]

It's obviously Ridley getting star KO'd, inb4 reveal tomorrow when sakurai realizes his mistake

 

[Starphoenix]

Guys, guys. The Dedede picture is a sign. Sakurai is sending Ridley fans a message.

Believe!

 

[Fenrir VII]

haha. ok ok. For the sake of the mods, I'll leave this after this post, but I do want to point out a couple issues in previous posts before I go.

1. Maybe because the blue lightning is obscured by a red effect?
2. It's not anymore curved than the end if the visible lightning.

Also, if it was supposed to be Ridley, what body part is that supposed to be? It's too thin to be tail, and way to long to be any of his claws.

1. There is other blue lightning on that pic that is in the red shaded area, but is MUCH brighter, and seemingly more forefront than the purple.
2. Yes it is... rounded curve vs. jagged edge.
3. Could be a claw or a wing pretty easily... obviously you can't see much, so it's hard to orient, but the shapes match well enough, especially if the lighter end of it is actually connected.

I'd say you're seeing what you want to see. To me, it's just a blue or purple (most likely blue) triangular form against the wall, probably a control panel of some kind hidden behind that hammer. I'll check previous pictures to see if we haven't seen it in this stage before.

Alternatively, that's an on-hit effect almost entirely covered by two characters taking off. Sounds more reasonable than Ridley >.>

On his own stage...riiiight. and there's nothing blue on the wall in other pictures.

It's a lightning effect that's behind Dedede's hammer. It's white in the middle, but blue by the edges, just like the lightnings you can see otherwise. It appears purple because it's under a transparent red effect, and even then it's quite obvious with such a big image like this that it's a common blue-ish purple that's usually used around lightning effects in many video games. It's really not that hard. Even then Ridley doesn't have any body parts that are purple by the edges and white in the middle, and make no mistake, it's purple by the very tip, so it can't be his claw.

See: lighting and reflection in video games. Also, there is a lighter area at the end that may be connected as a claw. hard to tell

Furthermore, this "purple" is more blue than Ridley's Other M palette, and that'd be one hell of a tiny Ridley stage hazard too if he can hide behind the head of Dedede's hammer, that'd be needless downscaling, if Ridley's a hazard he might as well be his real size.

Again, distance and depth perception make all the difference.... there's nothing to suggest he would stay on-plane with the players.

Plus, I HIGHLY doubt that Sakurai would publish a picture where Ridley accidentally flies in the background, I mean, in what crazy scenario would anyone publish something like that? It's not something that slips in by accident, of course he'd notice Ridley in the background while taking the picture, and it's not something that's going to be shown as subtly as this.

Don't even think I need to respond to this. Sakurai takes a cool picture, but sees Ridley is mostly obstructed and goes "good enough" is only one scenario...

This is Sakurai, he loves trolling the fanbase. Why'd you think we got Wii Fit Trainer...

 

[Kaye Cruiser]

The answer is obvious. He just wanted more Miss Fit Rule 34. ¦D

And he most certainly got his wish. ¦3

Because the lightning bolts are blue and the background is Red and when fading the blue is see threw when you mix blue and red it makes purple.

 

[Mypantisgone]

Sakurai secretly follows the forum , he realized we were getting to a conclusion about the Phantom but he wanted to have more fun , I don't see any other explanation .

 

[Muster]

you should probably refresh and check if he posted again before replying, he already addressed that in the post above.
