Also a lame *** Other M stage? W/e Sakurai, where's my Skytown Elysia?
We got two Metroid stages in Brawl. At least the Other M stages might be out of the way now for an MP3 stage.

The way I see it, we have three possibilities.

1. Ridley confirmation soon.
2. Ridley is a stage hazard.
3. Sakurai is simply commenting on the stage's importance to the series and nothing more.

I have no idea which option is the likely one...
2>1>3 I'd say. :ohwell:

I really disdain Other M more than ever now. That is pretty much the one place where that infamous scene from Other M also takes place which everyone hated.

I really can't think of any opportunity for a Ridley confirmation to happen other than Gamescom (again Nintendo has never done anything special for that, and I doubt Sakurai even knows of its existence).

I am pretty angry at Sakurai. I am sure though there is going to be hundreds of sychophants who will defend Sakurai's decision to make Ridley a stage hazard though.

You know the daily pic for Ridley could be him on that stage?

Or will his video be there in place of the pic?

Cause if so....

Crap.

Mmm

Bah, it's okay, at least in my opinion

No matter what happened, I will try my absolute best to remain optimistic! Any way things come out it does go to show that at least Nintendo is well aware of Ridley! And that's all good

Theres a first time for everything, if Sakurai does know of it, he may reveal Ridley around then.

The only thing that's lame about that stage is that it's causeing a lot of concern for Ridley's inclusion as a playable character.

It may be lame in your opinion, but I think it looks epic.
Well, it's not the eyecandy that is Skytown Elysia, that's for sure...

Also, I'd advise most of you not to look TOO deeply into Sakurai's quote. Remember that you're probably looking at a Japanese translation, thus any subtle implications that were there originally are gone, and replaced with new ones that may or may not be true, you, it gets "lost in translation" and all that jazz.

I'm just saving most of you the headaches to come is all.

Well.

If Ridley is a stage hazard we'll know relatively soon.

I can't imagine Sakurai teasing something like that and not showing it soon after.

Just noticed something.



Look at the hole.

Is there something by that pillar or is it just me?

As one who'd rather see Ridley playable, it's really what Sakurai decides.
If Ridley is playable, then good, Sakurai found reason to include him; great for us.
If Ridley's a stage hazard, then oh well. It's disappointing, but at least Sakurai acknowledges that Ridley has to appear somewhere that isn't just a cameo.

There is no sense for condemning Sakurai over it.

Hahahaha, I feel you man.

I just try to not let it get to me. Dude's been pulling our leg with Ridley since Melee, he might just be riding on that to keep the fans on the edge of their seat.

I suppose this might be the Ridley stage, kinda like someone else had said for the Halberd in Brawl was for MK. And like N3ON said, we're likely to get another Metroid stage, one that may be more general. This stage would be a good stage for it to be HIS stage, I mean since Norfair was in Brawl and all.

Meaning, if we get 3 Metroid stages, does that mean they could be:
>This Other M stage
>Skytown Elysia
>Brawl Norfair/Melee Brinstar Depths?

I'd be ok with that.

It's the Spider-Man 3 situation from way back all over again. There were a bunch of fans who could swear they saw Venom in Spider-Man's eyes.

Though I do see a hint of purple in the hole too. </3

Even though Ridley isn't on my top 30 character wishlist (I don't hate him at all, it's just that he doesn't interest me), I'm nervous and getting adrenaline on Ridley's fate.

But the stage is effin' badass, though.

I'm still so nervous regardless... his quote couldn't have been THAT different...

Alright, time to try and calm myself down...
Being a native bilingual, you don't even know just how much is lost when you go from English to Spanish or vice-versa, and both of those have Latin roots. Now imagine just how much is lost from Japanese to English... Especially since both are very subtle languages. From the little Japanese I already know, I can tell you a whole lot is indeed lost in regard to subtlety.

They're revealing so much recently for Super Smash Bros. 4.

It makes this end wonder at what point in 2013 the game WILL come out, because... and not at all to assume or put myself in the boots of anyone making the games for any reason, but... the Wii U version is even already looking really full up and polished! <://3 And there's still so much more to come, too... it's really... ngg~

So...

The "Challenger Approaching" thing is again down.

Not sure why I'm stating that.

Just feel like it.

Well, no use crying over spilled milk.

Well, there sort of would be in this possible case, for me at least. I won't be getting angry at Sakurai for it, but there certainly would be a lot of butthurt, likely a lot directed towards Sakurai, unfortunately.

o///o Is it? That banner has been REALLY finnicky the whole night it seems...! Right now for this end it's there and has the link and all

I don't know if it's a new character, but something is definetly up with it. Not to imply anything or anything that is

I read this in such horribly wrong context.

I zoomed in on the hole

IF Ridley DOES come out of it, I'm certain the glow there has no model attached to it

It's probably JUST the glow THEN Ridley comes out if he is a stage hazard from the whole.

IF you want to assume Ridley is a stage hazard.

Oh guys... So I just realized something after hopping on /v/ for a bit...

You know, now that we have this stage, even if Ridley is playable, he'll likely be the ugly ass Other M design over anything else:

Or or....he could tear through the hole because he's too big to get through, much like the Metal Gear stage had the robot tear down the wall.

As ugly as that design is, a playable Ridley is a playable Ridley. I'll take whatever I can get.

Anyone starting to think the stage is huge for a reason? Like dodging a stage hazard?!?!?!
