will nintendo actually take requests for characters?, or will they just ignore us and put what they want in the game?, 'cause quite frankly, i really want: ridley, the SPs, megaman EXE., Zero (EXE.) & other characters you guys probaly don't care about. if someone knows then please tell me!
Sakurai held a poll a while ago, which is now officially closed, but Ridley was mentioned a few times.

your best bet would be the NSider forums, seeing as they're the official Nintendo forums, but that's pretty much it.

aw man, nintendo would be so much better if they took requests, they should listen to their fans, but then again... they might get spammed, which woulden't be cool

It is better than nothing, though :ohwell:

Sakurai then picked out ones that he thought were interesting and appeared more than once, that is the slightest clue we have to who MAY be considered for brawl

I hate random -reppers but replying to them just encourages it. Oh well, we do live on Earth after all. Ridley will probably have a cool moveset in Brawl if he makes it.

I think his edge game could be really good. I could see him using his tale to spin around for a Nair, so that could be a good edge hop move.

Maybe Ridley shouldn't have more then two jumps. Rather his jumps can be high and after the second jump he glides steadily downwards similar to the image of Metaknight in the second trailer.

Setting you up the bomb.
Ridley's not going to be a light weight - that's for sure - but he's not going to be a heavy weight either... Sure he's big, but he's nothing but skin and bones. :grin: Multiple jumps and gliding shouldn't be a problem, he'll probably have a crappy recovery to balance that out...

yddub, uoy t'nod wonk aixerona...
Typing backwards is a waste of all of our time, and that statement is off topic.
Back on Topic, I think Ridley should have more Falco-style big jumps opposed to a bunch of small jumps. Perhaps maybe even a yoshi type jump, not the same path type of thing or even looks but just a long, horizontal jump. If he had a bunch of small jumps, it might be too much even if you didn't give him a recovery. He will probably be medium to high in weight. Also, Jiggly doesn't have a recovery, but the Rising Pound can get you to so many places. I have gotten Jiggly to a lot of crazy places with Pound. Like from the bottom-right of Temple to the top-right, that was hard lol. So Ridley could be given a move unintended for distance, but it is used for a little extra help. Though, I think Jiggly's pound was meant for distance help considering her "Platform" minigame needed it to win.

....wouldnt multiple jumps and gliding make his recovery good?

Ridley is my #1 wanted character to be added in Brawl! he's the only villian from the Metriod franchise that deserves to be added (screw you Dark Samus!). not only that, but he would be an awsome character to boot! he would be completely his own character, with cool moves. he would be strong, fast, have good recovery, and would be fairly heavy so he would be harder to send flying. I can't find absolutly any reason why he wouldn't (or couldn't) be in Brawl. not awkward in any way. the Metriod franchise needs more rep. and Ridley is the only one who can do that. RIDLEY FTW!!!!!

RIDLEY FTW!!!! Smash definitely needs more metroid and dark samus just dont work. Ridley would just be so undescribably orgasmically fantasmagorically FANTABULOUS!!!!!!

In the jawn, with the jawn.
At first i was not so sure about Ridley,his size being a major concern for me.But after reding gleefully through these grueling 77 pages(WOAH!) I have reconsiderd this.Not only that but I went from being skeptical to Ridley being my second choice for Brawl(sorry Sylus ,Ridley kicks your metal patootie.)Anyway I was thinking a`s someone suggested earlier to keep him lmited to two jumps close to falco's and glide down if you tap up during the fall.i though that beacuse the Kirby jumps added with the glide would throw me off a bit.Though that would be nice to and even sensible because his huge size, his recovery would never be good anyway.

yea, I would imagine ridley be very hard to kill. Medium weight and multiple jumps. The glide might be a little much, then again samus's recovery is too much and it didnt turn out imbalanced.

We definitely want him as playable. And he'll be in for shore,,, youll see. How many characters did metroid get in? How many does it deserve? 4? end of discusion in that place.

metroid character that must be in brawl:

Samus (in the game)
zamus (in the game)
ridley
dark samus
hunter from mp hunters
hunter (probably rundus) from mp3

maybe a tad much, but makes up for the lack of metroid characters in both melee and original 64 game...

Zamus I admit doesnt count much, but dark samus (being the main bad guy im the prime series) has to appear, and I would love a hunter to be in brawl, any1: weavel, sylux and rundus are my pics... (havent seen all the hunter im MP3, only rundus...)
