Silently stalking Samus....
Many have been defending their favourite charcter from the begining.Many have insulted the others.As much as this happens none is larger than the fight between Teh Pwner and Teh Owner.Thats right.The two remaining 4/5 characters on Sakurais poll.Ridley and Geno.




Both have been famous enough on the Forums to have their own club created.
CLub R.I.D.L.E.Y and The Geno Alliance.Both have flamed each other equal times and stood up for their Leader.As each of the greatest followers of both enemies have waged war against each other there is always the pitiful 'n00b' who has commented as well.
Now each Thread are close within posts and are fighting for the number one spot.
Many who read this may be saying to themselves *Who are those two* here is brief summary of each of them.

Ridley:A high-ranking and bloodthirsty Space Pirate, and one of Samus's main antagonists, Ridley shares features with both the pterodactyl and the mythical European dragon. Ridley led the Space Pirate attack on Samus' home colony of K-2L, which inevitably lead to the deaths of all the colonists including Samus' mother and father, the former of which Ridley was directly responsible. Samus has since had a personal vendetta against Ridley because of this, and that coupled with her objective to rid the galaxy of Space Pirates has led to numerous showdowns with the draconic boss throughout the series. It is unknown whether he is in fact the main leader of the Space Pirates, or if he takes orders from someone or something else.

First appearing in the original Metroid and destroyed by Samus, Ridley is always revived by the Pirates. Later versions of Ridley included more advanced cybernetic enhancements, such as powerful kinetic weapons, missile launchers, and force-field wings. This form of Ridley is known as Meta Ridley and appears in Metroid Prime and Metroid Prime 3. In Metroid Prime 3 Meta Ridley returns for a second battle as Omega Ridley, along with enhancements due to Phazon exposure, as well as new techniques. He also makes a cameo as an X-Parasite clone in Metroid Fusion and in Super Smash Bros. Melee both as a Trophy and in the game's opening, where he is fighting Samus at Ceres Space Station.

Unlike many other bosses in the series, Ridley doesn't usually have any specific strategy for beating him. Rather, starting in Super Metroid, the battles against him have the player dodge the swiftly flying dragon, along with his flailing tail and his fiery breath, all the while shooting him with a large number of missiles, making him a particularly challenging opponent.

Also introduced in Super Metroid was a musical theme that played during several boss battles. Despite being used for other bosses, the theme became particularly associated with Ridley, and has been featured solely during all the subsequent battles against him; this music is also set to appear in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.




Geno:An otherworldly traveler sent by a higher authority, whose real name is ♥♪!?, comes to Mario's world from Star Road to find the seven Star Pieces. Borrowing the form of Gaz's doll, Geno, a beam of light radiates from it bringing it to life, and he sets off searching for the Star Pieces. Since his name is hard to pronounce, he asks Mario and Mallow to call him "Geno", after the doll.

Encountering Mario and Mallow during his battle with Bowyer, Geno gladly accepts their help in battle. Defeating Bowyer, Geno explains to Mario and Mallow about his mission to find the Star Pieces and repair Star Road. Geno decides to travel with them to find the Star Pieces. Throughout the game, Geno offers advice to the party as a mystical sage-type figure. After destroying Smithy and reclaiming all seven Star Pieces, again a beam of light radiates from Geno, rendering the doll lifeless, and the otherworldly traveler bids farewell to his allies in order to repair Star Road.

Although Geno is a registered trademark of Square (now Square Enix), in Little Fungitown of Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, a Geno doll is an instructional aid to explain to players how to play the "Star Stache Smash" minigame, and the sound of his speech is very robotic. Just as Gaz played with the doll in Super Mario RPG, a person's hand operates Geno, since the otherworldly traveler left the doll's body after defeating Smithy. Geno is frequently requested for the upcoming game, Super Smash Bros. Brawl. However, There are many debates on if his inclusion will become reality.


*Both passages are from Wikipedia*

Both 'creations' have had good points put against them.For example *Ridley is too Big for Brawl* and *Geno is Third Party so he cant get in*.All have been answeared with perfect answears so don't try to discourge them.

The point of this thread is so both Ridley and Geno fans can talk to each other in a peaceful manner.Instead of invading another thread come here and post.

If this thread works well I will update it every so often...

i say ridley has a much higher chance and is much more deserving then geno. Honestly i had never heard of geno untill i was bombarded by fanboys on the fourms

i too never knew untill i searched for him once i read the polls.both ahve a equal amount of chance but sakurai seems to be talking about ridley more than geno.i think when sakurai slips on info on geno he is in.

Well i've known Geno and Ridley for the same ammount of time, but the truth is that Ridley has a higher chance, and Geno has more competition, but in my dream roster, both should be in.

I'm just amazed at how geno fans tend to think that their love and awe for him carries his popularity all over the world. Not that there is anything wrong with that I just think it is wrong to think that if you think something is great that it HAS to be great just cause you said so.
That being said i would be ok with geno in brawl but i just dont think he would be able to make it.

I think Ridley desreves to be in before Geno because I believe Ridley is more well known. I had to look up Geno on wikipedia to find out who he was. Also I believe Geno constitutes as a 3rd party character because Super Mario RPG was made by Squarenix. The last point that I would like to make is that Geno would be what the sixth character from a Mario game. Samus has been the only representative for the Metroid franchise for the past two games.

as long as they don't appear together like an ice climber type of character (sakurai lurks these boards....reads all of them and then does that just to piss everyone off), i'm fine with them both being in the game. and so is mario.

Both deserve to be in the game. Ridley definetly should be playable because he's best to represent the Metroid series, aside from Samus...

I have a couple paragraphs about why Geno should/ deserves to be in, but it'll be hard tracking where that is exactly. Mario RPG may have been one game, but it was one hell of a game...

Also, I remember Metroid series being rather obscure until not that long ago

I want both in, and I think there shouldn't be an argument for either one of them.

Its been said countless times before, I know, but there is no other Metroid character that deserves to be in more than him. Not Dark Samus, not the Hunters, not Justin Bailey. Ridley. He's widely popular, the only highly ranked Nintendo character left from the polls to not be confirmed, adds a villain, and so on.

He's a dragon and a pirate. How is that not awesome? He will be in the game.

I'm one of the few people that played Super Mario RPG back in the day, and only found out that he's popular by coming to these boards. I do admit, he's an interesting case... He's been in one Mario game (not counting the cameo from Mario & Lugi), which could be considered a spin-off, and he's technically 3rd party.

However, that "spin-off" inspired two series of Mario RPGs, ranked just as high as Ridley, and is just generally cool. Personally I think he's the last Mario newcomer that could bring a truly unique feel and could represent a different side of the Mario games. If Sakurai is truly seeking to please the fans and if he goes to Square-Enix for one character, it won't be someone from Final Fantasy, Dragon Quest, or Chrono Trigger, and definitely not Sora - it WILL be ♥♪!?.

Ya know what? You Ridley vs Geno people can settle your dispute when the game comes out because they're both in. I'll be playing as Sonic anyways :laugh:

Why would it be a poll? it's not like they're contesting for a slot....

The title should be Teh Pwner and Teh Owner, because the 'or' makes it sound as though this thread is about them competing... Y'know, just to avoid confusion. :ohwell:

But yeah, Ridley and Geno for Brawl!

changed....

would geno's strenghts be simialr to lucases?
Geno would have an unusual moveset, based mostly on projectiles...even in Smash attacks and such (Though not long randed during smashed) Geno is also really fast and fairly strong...He would have a low defense/weight (?) and med jump though


sorry for double psot*

i believe geno will be first because we just had a metroid update.
Naw, I always did get the feeling about Ridley being announced first...but then again, I have been off recently...
