you know what? Just keep arguing. This is actually fun.
your telling me. i get a higher post count every time i pwn this fool

Join?, ah... so you assume that when i'm beat, i'll give up my thoughts and mindlessly chant "Ridley for brawl, he has a fanbase"
no matter how many times we repeat our logical reasoning the only thing you see is "Ridley fanbase". learn how to read

Okay... if you actually read what people have been posting within the last five pages or so, you'll find plenty of reason. And I don't wanna hear the "explain to me without me having to read a whole bunch of boring crap" excuse. You're on an internet forum, how the hell else are we gonna respond to your questions?

It has been said before, but I'll repeat it ONCE more, in hopes that you will finally see sense:
-Ridley has scored abnormally high on Sakurai's poll considering Japan is not as Metroid-loving as we are. I believe Stryks said he scored among the top 5.

-Size IS NOT an issue. Ridley can be resized, have you considered looking at his form in the Melee intro like we've told you SEVERAL TIMES? Not to mention Bowser automatically renders that "too big" argument moot.

-Not being a playable character, but a boss, in the Metroid games does not matter. name me a zelda game where you could play as Ganondorf, and maybe you'd have some water in that arguement.

-I'll admit that this is running a little more on speculation, but that fact that Sakurai specifically showed us a remix of RIDLEY'S theme that will be in Brawl has to make you wonder. I doubt they'd put in music for a character if that character only ended up as an AT.

-So what if Ridley's never beaten Samus in the games? That's kind of the point of bosses, they usually aren't supposed to be victorious over the main hero/heroine.

Now, if you STILL don't understand why Ridley's chances are better than you claim, then please stop saying it in a thread that is quite clearly geared for pro-Ridley people.

Oh, and one more thing...

RIDLEY. FOR. BRAWL.
Yeah, i read all those reasons, most are just assuptions and guesses, there is still no confirmation, and you still claim those are good enough reasons for his apperence.

I can't believe I'm responding to this...oh well, no one read my other posts either...

Jame bond was on the Melee poll
1) He's owned by Rare (Microsoft)
2) He is not originally from a video game
Nintendo owns Ridley, and he IS originally from a video game.

I'm fine with that, but if he chose to better represent the pokemon series would you want Red playable?
He never said he wanted more Pokemon rep. And I really don't give a crap if Red is playable.

What aboot Samuri goroh?
Goroh is a RIVAL, not a NEMESIS. Look up the difference because I'm not explaining it. Captain Falcon has like 10 rivals, and he's from a less important series.

Sakurai said he wanted more Metroid characters and more villains. Ridley fits the bill on both.

Metroids even more, the series are named after them
Metroids were in two games Ridley was not in (RoS and Echoes). And, they hardly did anything in Echoes...

Besides, who gives? What moveset is a metroid going to have. Any button: energy drain. ... yay! fun character! I guess they did a bad pick on Ganondorf, because he wasn't in every game. They should have picked some generic minion. Bad choice, Nintendo. /sarcasm

Deoxys is unique, what happend to it?
Deoxys blows. They only people who wanted him were the diehard pokemon fans. People who hate metroid, have never played it, etc. want Ridley. Case-in-point: The Japanese want Ridley.

And Deoxys looks like a complete tool. You don't get characters who look much cooler than Ridley. And, another thing...they WOULD have to come up with a complete moveset with Deoxys. With Ridley...the job is pretty much done already. (see Gypsy's moveset, which you refuse to read)

That's rather shallow.
Shallow? Do you know what that means?

Besides, Japan wanted Ness...he got in. Japan wanted Marth...he got in
Gee....

Don't get you're hopes too high, remeber what happend to mr.DNAlien
Who???

Face it that
you're out numbered. More people support Ridley than people who don't and that puts the chances in his favor.

Alright, lets see if I can pump some non-n00b related discussion into this thread.

I'm thinking the Melee intro wasn't made when the character roster was completed. I think that Ridley was meant to be in Melee but, perhaps due to difficulties in his design, he was scrapped. The Melee intro could have been made when while they still thought they were going to have Ridley playable. Same could be said for Wolf, but I bet the reason he was scrapped was because Falco was more popular.

Ridley's trophy in Melee may have been the the scrapped model for his character. Also, I haven't played the Metroid games but, weren't Ridley and Kraid paired up for one boss battle? Brinstar Depths may have been meant to be Ridley's stage!

If all this were true and Ridley was indeed meant for Melee; Ridley is no doubt garunteed for Brawl. (As if he wasn't already :p)

If only Sakurai and his team were more like the developers for the Godzilla games... They actually go to some of the Godzilla forums! They've been interviewed by certain fans and tell us what monsters were scrapped from their games and why. Lots of stuff, like technical details and such.

(...Yeah, I really hope I didn't repeat what everyone already knew/thought.)

RIDLEY FOR BRAWL!!

Oasis S has a Point. Ridley was probably going to be in Melee as a character, but they couldn't. If this is true, then Ridley is Bound to be in Brawl.

prop to Cenedar. save a couple hundred posts, a different username, and a signature i cant tell the difference between us cuz we have the same reasnos for Ridley and are both pwning alpha n00b with em
Don't get you're hopes too high, remeber what happend to mr.DNAlien
why do you keep bringing up Deoxys. only a n00b wouldve expected him to actually be playable. 5-year-old pokefans were the core of his fanbase. and if you were in the category well it sucks to be you
I can't believe I'm responding to this...oh well, no one read my other posts either...
i did
Goroh is a RIVAL, not a NEMESIS. Look up the difference because I'm not explaining it. Captain Falcon has like 10 rivals, and he's from a less important series.
and thats the truth. Blackshadow is Falcon's nemesis. if he becomes an AT, then you might have a point alpha
Face it that
you're out numbered. More people support Ridley than people who don't and that puts the chances in his favor.

Ridley for Brawl
the thing is that its not even a matter of being outnumbered. its just common sense. if he knew nothing about Ridley it would be understandable though still stupid to whine in a Ridley for brawl thread. seriously, prior to 2 days ago, i have never played a metroid game in my life and i still could tell by this thread that theres more than enough FACT to support him being in brawl. anyone who cant see that is just ignorant at best

anyways im done with this. on the plus side it was at least about Ridley

Lol, this is so stupid, it's funny. I think they should be a AT, but that's it.

Edit: man, just use google.

Well done, Gypsy Lee. The drawing is great. Isn't Hyper Beam a Pokemon move, though?
I'm going to support Ridley in my sig. Anyone else?

To celebrate this glorious victory Put Hip Hip Hooray 3 times at the end of your post

This thread has quickly turned into something so awful it would cause even the most emotionless of men would break into tears. Especially thank to Gypsy Lee's horrid Ridley picture...na just kidding, it was pretty good :grin:.

Rules of the forum #2:

If you need to say something additionally after you've already made a post in quick succession, use the edit button. Thus you don't end up triple posting all the time and getting banned.

I was looking for pictures of Ganondorf and Ridley to put in a banner and look at what I found:

Is this a hoax?

in short yes. from now on assume every image or video relating to brawl that didnt originate from the brawl site or e3 to be fabricated. itll keep you from getting your hopes up for nothing. and you dont need to worry anyways cuz as we've been valiantly debating and defending today Ridley is virtually in brawl
uuuuuh thanks
yes double posting is bad and yes im a hypocrit

Thanks to the two days of flame wars, we now have four more Ridley supporters! To those of you who don't know what to do next, we pretty much just talk about how awesome Ridley is and end each post with Ridley For Brawl! (or RFB for short). Just remember to be creative and change things up a bit. Switch between different fonts, sizes, the whole nine yards.

For instance:

RIDLEY IS TEH PWNSAUCE IN MY SMASH BROS SAMWICH!!!

Best...thread...evar

And did anyone see my pic for colbusman? He was here last week trying to tell us that "While Ridley has the most fanatic supporters, Diddy's fanbase is far superior." I've seen 5-10 faces here today who haven't been around much in the past and have shown support for Ridley against the noobs.

...Trying to tell me our fanbase is smaller. It's just that this thread goes in spurts and Caael and some others end up posting a lot here. So, it just appears that way. Anyway...I just wanted to say all that.

Edit: @Gypsy, Ridley is a pwnasaurs-rex...
