This is my favorite thing you've found from over there.
Unless there is some hidden sarcasm I'm supposed to detect or if it's a part of some inside joke that I'm not aware of, but you incorrectly spelled "success".
Ehh, I could see him getting in.
I think so,unless they wanna monster troll
What makes you say that? I know he has a big fanbase who wants him in Smash 4 but besides that I don't see it much.
That is hilarious. They probably look over at us sometimes and say similar things, laughing to themselves.
Name a Kharacter that is holding the same amount or more Kards than Ridley.
Mewtwo and Roy?
Let's talk Megaman a little. As we know Megaman has over 80+ robot master themes (also including special stages and other stuff like that). What is the number one robot master tune you all want to be on the Megaman stage if he were in? Any one, from 1-10, and including Rockman and Forté.
The sad thing is that other than, most other Japanese Smash fans think Metroid won't be getting any newcomers for Smash 4, and Ridley himself only gets a few requests. I actually saw a lot more requests for Ridley pre-Brawl in Japan (though back then I was only looking at opinions at two sites). I think now they simply think Ridley's status for now on in Smash Bros. will be a boss. I think the same thing goes for Toad, the character himself is very popular in Japan, but they seem to think his shot at playable status is ruled out due to being Peach's neutral-special for two games now.
That's the power of Nintendo logic.@Ridley talk
If someone comes with the ole' "he's too big" talk, I'll just say:
[COLLAPSE="BAM"][/COLLAPSE]
[COLLAPSE="BAM"][/COLLAPSE]
Not really. I would be fine with this.
Neither do I, but I know a lot of people are interested in him, so, he should probably get in. But I can see him not getting in. Anything is possible.
Ridley is definitely the most important Nintendo character not yet playable in Smash Bros. He is arch-nemesis of the Metroid series and has not only been in the series since the very beginning, but he has also been in nearly every game to the series, and is the most popular and well-known Metroid character next to Samus.tl;dr version of vicgur's post- Ridley's a great choice because he's highly requested and is also a key character of his series, Metroid. He's one of the few characters not playable in a Smash game yet that just makes perfect sense to be in
I would say that title goes to the Miis.
The Miis are arguable (they are relatively new, whereas, Ridley has been around for over 25 years). However, simply looking at series that already have playable characters in Smash Bros., Ridley is definitely the most important character not yet playable.
I don't think you can argue with the fact that the Wii series is the third best selling gaming franchise of all time. Metroid definitely isn't, and Ridely isn't a large reason for the Metroid sales, like the Miis are for the Wii series sales.
If you are talking about importance, then Ridley is definitely heaps more important than K. Rool. Ridley was around before K. Rool debuted, and he continued to make major appearances after K. Rool stopped (which ironically enough, Ridley did not appear in any more games from the release of DKC to the release of DKC64). I mean sure K. Rool showed up in Paon's games, but they were genuinely regarded as being mediocre spinoffs, whereas the biggest two DK games released since DK64 were Jungle Beat and Country Returns.
