Miiverse Daily Smash 4 Photos (Closed for its successor)

[RelaxAlax]

Think about when you draw a picture. You see all the imperfections in it and every detail you make.
He knows guys, he is fully aware of stringing us along. It's one thing to troll, but angering his fanbase intentionally on something he knows of is not professional.

He doesn't troll us.... well badly. I think it's just we interpret it as trolling because of how dedicated we are to this game. Just my opinion though.

 

[Hippopotasauce]

Hey, any Metroid fans able to tell me what those yellow circles are?

 

[TrainerLITTLER]

Still fail to see how Mother Brain being an Asisst affects Ridley's chances at all.

I wish if Ridley were a stage hazard, Sakurai would just say so. Rip it off like a band-aid and get it over with. The irritating thing if he is playable, is that I could easily see Sakurai saving someone as wanted as him as an unlockable or at least really late newcomer reveal. If he is in, we will probably be speculating about it all year until release.

I state again, name another enemy from Samus' past that could be a stage hazard, now that it isn't Mother Brain.

I say Ridley, because he would be a boss again.

He appeared as a boss in SSBB, and pretty much every Metroid game. Why would that change?

 

[MasterLuigi]

I can't wait to see the reaction on Miiverse when Ridley is confirmed as a stage hazard.

 

[NitrusVirus]

OMG RIDDLER DECONFIRMED DISLIKED UNSUBCRABBED

 

[SmashShadow]

Obviously going for the Zero Mission version of Mother Brain.

 

[TrainerLITTLER]

Hey, any Metroid fans able to tell me what those yellow circles are?

Just the beams that Mother Brain fires at you. They hurt you.

 

[MasterOfKnees]

Don't get me wrong, this is beyond ****ing amazing, but what the living ****? That's probably the last Metroid character I'd have guessed as an AT. More undisputed proof that Sakurai makes things no one else could think of.

I kind of wish she just spawned a million laser cheerios though, that'd be fun as ****.

EDIT: Holy **** she does! This is the best ****ing thing ever.

 

[BugDoctor]

Hey, any Metroid fans able to tell me what those yellow circles are?

Those are Rinkas. They're basically laser-cheerios that fire out of turrets throughout Tourian, which is the area of Zebes where Mother Brain is located.

 

[Xiivi]

Awesome commentary from Sakurai for once; he seems super excited. Probably in a trolling mood as usual.

 

[MasterLuigi]

Hey, any Metroid fans able to tell me what those yellow circles are?

Those are called Rinkas. They're just things the level shoots at you in Super Metroid.

 

[TrainerLITTLER]

So many hearts have been shattered tonight...

Glad I'm not upset, hell, I've actually just won so many arguements!

Poor Ridley though.

Those are called Rinkas. They're just things the level shoots at you in Super Metroid.

Weren't they also in Metroid and Metroid Zero Mission?

As I recall, that is.

 

[Hong]

ridley deconfirmed his mom is dead

 

[PLATINUM7]

Well, name another creature that isn't Ridley to be the stage hazard, that applies to being an enemy from her past.

Especially when the hole that Ridley made in the actual Pyrosphere (Other M) is in the background of this stage.

Did Sakurai actually explicitly say there is a stage hazard?

 

[Arcanir]

He appeared as a boss in SSBB, and pretty much every Metroid game. Why would that change?

Same reason for Ganondorf becoming playable in Melee despite being a boss in every Zelda game as well as Charizard becoming playable after being demoted to Pokeball for 2 games prior.

 

[MasterLuigi]

As I recall, that is.

I could be wrong about that. I only played Super Metroid.

I get where you are coming from, but I still hang on to some hope. The comment is pretty vague. As clear as Sakurai is about controversial or disappointing news and as wanted as Ridley is, it seems off for him to hold onto a stage hazard reveal for so long and keep people's hopes up for nothing.

Except, why would Mother Brain be a Pyrosphere hazard in the first place? It made no sense for her to be a stage hazard on the Pyrosphere in the first place, so no, this hardly affects Ridley's chances.

And the "Ridley has always been a boss" argument is a weak argument, considering Ganondorf was never playable in a Zelda game, yet, he got in Melee. Same goes for Zelda. (and Sheik) And King Dedede was just backround in the first Smash, and it's returning Kirby stage in Melee. Then he ended up playable in Brawl.

It's not impossible for a character's role in Smash to change.

 

[DarkGundam]

Did Sakurai actually say there is a stage hazard?

Soooooooooo this pretty much deconfirms Ridley for me :/

 

[TrainerLITTLER]

Did Sakurai actually say there is a stage hazard?

Pretty much.

Pic of the day. Out of the blue, here's a new stage--the Pyrosphere from Metroid: Other M! An enemy from Samus's past may appear at any second…

 

[Deleted member]

Mother Brain being AT =/= remotely anything in regards to Ridley.
Arguing otherwise would be foolish.

 

[Admiral Pit]

Poor nothing. I actually like this.

 

[The Real Gamer]

Pyrosphere pic number 1,324,387 with no stage hazard in sight...

Is there anyone left who seriously thinks Ridley's not in this game as a playable character? >.>

 

[DarkGundam]

Double post, dammit.

 

[Pyra]

I mean it could help Ridley.

He did show an acceptance to massive characters.

 

[PLATINUM7]

Confirms Ridley as a character or hazard?
The first quote does not explicitly say anything about stage hazards. The second pic clearly shows an enemy from Samus past but I can't really tell what this says about Ridley.

Also

Pic of the day. Inside the corridor along one of the walls in Pyrosphere, a view that's really not visible in-game. You can't tell from the picture, but it's actually a gigantic open space.

The hole Ridley makes in Other M is present.

Ridley is the only boss of the Pyrosphere, why would that change?

 

[Deleted member]

Pretty much.

That doesn't confirm or deny anything.

This guy assuming Ridley isn't playable...

 

[Eternal phoenix Fire]

Everyone is whining about new characters they want ... And I just want to see Captain Falcon.

And please direct me to where that 100% confirms that means Stage Hazard and not any other capacity of role. It could mean a number of things ranging from playable, boss, stage hazard, AT or hell, just being a reference to the original game (which makes sense due to the use of "trauma" in the Japanese update).

It's quite jumping the gun to say it definitely means one of those things when any of them are just as plausible.

 

[PLATINUM7]

Nowhere in that quote does it say STAGE HAZARD. All it says is an enemy from Samus past which is exactly what we got today.

to add more fuel to the fire: mother brain is scaled down from her game

 

[TiaSilvia]

The only thing we can confirm is that Ridley is in the game. If it is a playable character, a stage hazard or a boss, no one can tell for sure.

 

[MasterLuigi]

I wonder if characters can stand on top of Mother Brain's container.

 

[Pacack]

stuff

Dude, you're literally making an assumption that does not make sense. He did not say anything about a stage hazard. He just said that an "enemy from Samus' past" may appear at any second. Some people think it means he's a hazard, I think that's more of a reference to Ridley's playablility, but, either way, we do not know. Saying "poor Ridley" and whatnot is honestly just annoying. It's like saying "poor Toon Link" when we saw him on the Spirit Tracks stage. It would have just annoyed Toon Link's fans and, in the end, it was simply an unfounded assumption (that turned out to be wrong).

I don't mean to insult you, but seriously.

 

[Sarki Soliloquy]

All I'm wondering is how the hell that giant capsule is set up after you lift the Assist Trophy and spawn.

 

[TrainerLITTLER]

That doesn't confirm or deny anything.

Hey it's you again!

I remember what a nice person you were to me, and you're showing it again! Yay!

Seriously though, I'm not going to fight anyone over this, I'm just going to wait until the day Ridley becomes a boss.

Again I'd like to state that I'm a huge Metroid fan who's played all of the games; I have nothing against Ridley other then what Masahiro has shown us.

She doesn't look scaled down to me. She's probably been scaled up.
