My thoughts exactly. Ridley's chances of being playable really aren't all that great, to be perfectly honest. Like many have stated before me: popularity means nothing, especially when the character is, in of itself, illogical. All you fanboys should really stop deluding yourselves by thinking he's a shoe-in, 'cause I hate to break it to you, but he's not.LOl Ridley fanboys...
Cause you know, this couldn't have been put in Ridley's thread instead. Not like this is important information, anyone with half a brain could see that a character can be a boss and PC (DK movie..).
And how is Ridley a "shoe-in"? Why does there have to be a metriod villain again? That's like saying Pokey (Mother), Daein (FE: PoR) and Medusa (Kid Icarus) are in cause they are the perfect villain for their games.
Not like I hate Ridley (more the merrier), but the "I think he's so L33t so he must be already in" attitude of his fans is really annoying.
You could use Bowser to beat Bowser in melee. So your point is?FAIL, he was slow -_-
Strong? Well, maybe the grabs.
Oh and his defense sucked.
Why would we have a boss playable, then when you fight ridley you could use ridley to beat him <_<;;
Boss's are supposed to be hard, if they reach human above average skill, they would be unstoppable.
I guess King Dedede isn't a shoe-in either? Oh wait...My thoughts exactly. Ridley's chances of being playable really aren't all that great, to be perfectly honest.

At the end of adventure mode the boss wasn't the same bowser <_< he was twice the regular size, he had better statistics.You could use Bowser to beat Bowser in melee. So your point is?
Awesome, take the names of some characters that have already been confirmed then stick Ridley to the end of that list and BAM he's in too...I guess King Dedede isn't a shoe-in either? Oh wait...
Wario, Diddy Kong, King Dedede, and even Sonic were all shoe-ins... everyone should have known they were going to be in Brawl, just like Ridley.
...How the heck is Ridley illogical? That's like saying King Dedede is illogical.
Please don't put words in my mouth. King Dedede was always a shoe-in. So was Sonic. I don't recall ever claiming the contrary. However, tell me how these characters in any way relate to Ridley and his chances of being in Brawl? That's right, they don't. They had their own, separate reasons for being so, Sakurai's poll be dam.ned.I guess King Dedede isn't a shoe-in either? Oh wait...

Ofcourse he's not confirmed yet, but my point was that characters like King Dedede had everything going for them and very little, if anything, was going against them which earned them the title 'shoe-in.' It's the same thing for Ridley. He's a shoe-in. I have yet to see any reason why he couldn't be playable, and it seems like most the people who doubt his inclusion just have a hard time imagining how he'd look in the Smash world.Awesome, take the names of some characters that have already been confirmed then stick Ridley to the end of that list and BAM he's in too...
Not saying he isn't in but nothing says he will be in ether. No one that isn't on the DOJO is 100% in (not even Gannon, obvious as he is nothing is 100%). Having a good chance is one thing, but if a charcter isn't on the DOJO then you can't go around saying lIeK Do0dZ hE b sO InzoRus,yOU DoN't ThINk s0? yoU n0ob!!1!!111!one!!
Fine, as long as you understand that Ridley isn't 100% thats good with me. Tired of Ridley fanatics shoving down the supposed "fact" that Ridley will be playable. It would be fine if they kept that kind of stuff inside the Ridley thread but when they start preaching it in other topics.Ofcourse he's not confirmed yet, but my point was that characters like King Dedede had everything going for them and very little, if anything, was going against them which earned them the title 'shoe-in.'

this is the most important point. Sakurai believes he can make Ridley work as a PC. doesn't matter if we do or not.Y'know what would make me laugh? A subspace battle where you fought Giant Bowser!
And for anyone who says Ridley is too big; Never seen the intro to Melee, have you?
Edit: Oh, and for the record.... Sakurai said he wanted more Metroid characters in Brawl. Ridley got put in said game creator's poll, and ranked extremely high.
So here's the point: SAKURAI INCLUDED CHARACTERS HE KNEW COULD BE PLAYABLE. He wouldn't set up a poll with characters he knew he couldn't make; That'd be ********, no?
Yhea because we all know how Sakurai decides which character gets in or not by weather you thought "OMGWTFBBQ" when you first saw him.... and why Metroid prime!? is that like the only Metroid game you have played or something.Depends if they pull him off right. He's on a knife edge here.
If Ridley still has that little spark that made me go "OMGWTFBBQ" in Metroid Prime, then yes. If not, then no.
Awesome, take the names of some characters that have already been confirmed then stick Ridley to the end of that list and BAM he's in too...

GANNON - BANNED!!!!!
Sorry I do not speak to people who disgrace the name of the lord of evil.Sorry... I meant Ganondorf.
Hey, aren't you the leader of the Ridley fanboys?
Question. What would I have to do to get on the haters list as a" Total noob"? Is my Sig enough to do the trick?
^ WIN 1!
GANNON - BANNED!!!!!
^ WIN 2!this is the most important point. Sakurai believes he can make Ridley work as a PC. doesn't matter if we do or not.
^ WIN 3!![]()
Nuff said.

Again, King Dedede was never illogical. Never. Ridley, on the other hand, is a whole other story. You may have your otherwise deluded reasons for believing in his eventual playability, while I have mine own reasons for believing he'll be but a boss and/or assist trophy. I'd rather leave it at that and have myself a good laugh when Brawl is finally released playable Ridley free.
Are you dumb=??? He is the most likely newcomer now, with King Dedede confirmed. I"ll pull out the f***ing stats. LIKE THIS! Here is a list of all the best selling Nintendo franchises, with OVER 10 million units sold, and have at least ONE PLAYABLE REP IN BRAWL.LOl Ridley fanboys...

First off let me say this thread fails almost as bad as the sandman. How is this thread neccissary to the franchise anyways=???
^ WIN 1!
^ WIN 2!
^ WIN 3!

Mario (193 million)[151]
Pokémon (155 million)[151]
The Legend of Zelda (52 million)[26]
Donkey Kong (48 million)[155][151]
Metroid (13 million)[151]
What? Metroid is Nintendo's 5th best selling franchise? Kirby, EarthBound/MOTHER Fire Emblem, and Star Fox at most barely have sold HALF AS MANY UNITS! Ya, that's right. So SUCK IT! Metroid will have Ridley as a PC, seeing as how he is their 2nd MOST IMPORTANT CHARACTER, AND VILLAIN! Kirby series is like trash now anyways, and it's sales wish they were Metroid's. And for the too big arguement, suck on THIS!

Ridley smaller then Samus in SSB Melee's opening? Wat? The level I just owned you at is, it's....OVER 9,000!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OMFG! Giga Bowser is like 50 fete tall! hackorz!
![]()
Bowser is like 40 FEET TALL IN THIS PIC! ZOMG, RIDLEY IS 20 FEET TALL! DECONFIRMED! DECONFIRMED! DECONFIRMED! STFU! You fail, and admit it. Says say you lose, fanbase size says you lose, hell, even Japan says you lose, and soon Sakurai will say you lose. So you fail. Fail like the Titans in the 2000 Super Bowl...

Exactly.Just because a character is destined to become a Subspace Emissary boss, doesn't mean that they don't still have a chance of becoming playable characters.
Ridley WILL be a boss.
But he'll also be a playable character.

On JohnKnight1's post - Is that what Ridley-haters hate the most? Not necessarily Ridley in Brawl... Just the fanboys?
*curious*
To stop the anti-Ridley people.On JohnKnight1's post - Is that what Ridley-haters hate the most? Not necessarily Ridley in Brawl... Just the fanboys?
*curious*
I did...I was just refering to the REAL ANTI-RIDLEY POSTS! Look back, and people will say "zomg, he's too big" sooo many times, and these scrubs fail. This thread was made of fail, because the title attracts scrubs like the ones who say "zomg, he's too big to be playable". I just felt like giving them another stab at the balls, ya know!HOW MANY OF YOU MOTHER FATHERS READ THE FIRST POST
Hold it right there. >=O you don't bashe my favorite series and get away with it.Kirby series is like trash now anyways
1. Popularity =/= 100% in Brawl but, I'm sure you have other convincing evidence right?1.Sakurai is the b**ch of the fans. If the most popular characters wouldn't get in, then we'd be playing all Pokémon. Mario, Link, Donkey Kong, Samus, Fox, Kirby, Yoshi, Luigi, Peach, Bowser, Pikachu, Jigglypuff, Marth, Zelda, Solid Snake, Ganondorf, Falco, Meta Knight, Wario, SONIC, Ike, Diddy Kong, King Dedede...most of the characters are VERY POPULAR! Whil random characters do get in, at least 90%-90% of all characters in smash are AT LEAST semi-reconizable to gamers (especially Nintendo gamers) before being in Smash.
This is Super Smash Bros. Brawl, not Super Smash Bros. total randomness, or Super Smash Bros. minority.
2.Gary has one appearance, and King K. Rool has 4. The DK series has been dead since 1998. Metroid is still thriving. Ridley has appeared in all but 2 Metroid games, and has played a central roll in Metroid, Metroid Zero Mission, Super Metroid, the Metroid Primes (minus Hunters), etc. Fact is K. Rool's franchise is dead, Ridley's is at it's peak.
3.No, I never said that.
4.I've predicted every newcomer and veteran thus far except the PT. And we don't know, but chances are for Ridley. He has eitehr 3 or 4 votes on Sakurai's Brawl poll (either tied for the highest or 2nd highest votes of a unconfirmed potential newcomer), between all his SWf threads his thread is the most posted on-even more then the SONIC THREAD! (and he's confirmed) He has his boss theme music on his stage, and the place where you fight him in Metrod, Metroid Zero Mission, and Super Metroid is his home terain, and is where you fought him in all those games I said.
And not every series needs a villian, but most of the bigger series (like EarthBound, Kirby, Star Fox, and Fire Emblem on up) deserve at least two-and Metroid is no exception. Hell, Ridley is even wanted in Japan-and they hate Metroid. By your logic, just because a character in the public eyes doesn't mean squat---it did with Ike, Sonic, Diddy Kong, Meta Knight, Wario, and King Dedede.
There will be random characters, but most of the smash characters are POPULAR! It is a proveable fact.
O RLY?He is the most likely newcomer now, with King Dedede confirmed.
Get it the hard way Punk?!?^ Tuche!Someone finally proved me wrong! XD
Congratulations! You win....
