maybe there will be a few trophies not found in the american version.

kind of like the devil, mario riding yoshi, and samus without her mask trophies that did not make it into the U.S. version of melee.

For the most part, I agree with what you said, but let's face it: Sakurai really doesn't care about the world stage when it comes to the inclusion of content. You know it, and I know it. Hell, I've known this all along, which is actually one of the main reasons why we're going to see a bunch of pseudo fanboys pissing blood here on these forums once it is affirmed that Ridley is not a playable character in Brawl.

I know he said he'd try to consider us (i.e. people other than the Japanese) and our tastes when it comes to such things, but again, the reality of the matter is, Sakurai's human. A human that also happens to be Japanese. He may very well like to not be biased and close-minded, but that's simply not going to happen. And, to be perfectly honest, I don't think he gives a rat's ***, 'though I'm fairly certain that was obvious to begin with. Well, maybe not to some...
Nice transition considering Metroid is pretty much only liked my America now.

i think the fact that ridley is such a wanted character by the japanese when metroid is so unpopular in japan kind of puts the seal on the deal for him. a metroid character the japanese and americans both love? sounds like a good deal to me.
