Funny...Metroid characters are outnumbered 3 to 1 by their stages. No other franchise can say that. In fact...Kirby is the exact opposite way around.

stop licking sakurai's boots. this game isn't perfect and these updates are worse than nothing.
Hm... so it's not perfect? Simply because someone takes it for what it is doesn't make someone licking their boots or being fanboyish in any way.

As far as this goes, I kinda saw it coming in some ways. It's nice to see them back anyway, even if I was rather surprised by the choices.

Hmm, I thought this update was great. 5 more stages to play on!

If you don't like the stages, no one's forcing you to play them and the people who love the stage are made very happy.

I think I read somewhere from JumpFesta that the music on Norfair is a ripping guitar version of the metroid song as well. A new version, at that.

I think that came from Gonintendo...
So? What will they use for the Brinstar music...(also, I'm becoming hopeful that the Ridley music is his theme as well :))
RIDLEY FTB!!!

Yeah, I love the Secret Music for Yoshi's Island, the L&R thing. Hope they keep that for Temple too.
You mean the Super Mario Bros. 3 song? I liked the Super Mario Banjo song better. And since Fire Emblem has a stage now, the song might pop up there instead of Temple.

The next metroid stage will obviously be Ridley. He's to big to be a character, but he has excellent stage potential.

actually in the melee opening vid, ridleys size actually looks reasonible and shrinking isnt a problem
Every time i hear this, I laugh, because Kirby's too small to be a character.
so is captain olimar, he is rediculously tiny in actual size

Not really true, Kirby isnt a small puff ball, he is kinda big and size matches perfectly to mario.

but Ill do ya a favor and fix it for ya.

That makes more sense.

They changed Pika's size to fit, not Kirby's

1' 4" > 0' 8"
Kirby shouldn't even reach Pika's chin xD

Hi guys, how's it going?
moreover, isn't mewtwo rather tall himself? Ash only went up like halfway on that beast in the movie, I believe.

Also there's the issue of Samus's laughable smallness in melee and the fact that in all the mario games, bowser is way bigger than in melee.

No, Ridley's size wouldn't impede his chances in brawl, but i think he has much more potential as an AT or a Boss. But that's not to say I don't think it's a terrific idea.

I know, he's 6' 7"...but Pika is up to his waist in Melee?
And I still say Rildey's better as PC, there's plenty of other Metroid bosses.

There is a new notice posted on the ***. site.
LOL J A P got blocked out. Why?
Because that is a racist term supposedly. The correct way to shorten it would probably be JPN.


And lame update. The least they could have done would have been to give us a double update for the week long absence. Would it have really been so hard?

lol...

That's the silliest thing I've heard tonight. How would he possibly have more potential as an AT than as a playable character? You've obviously never seen any of his possible movesets...but then again, that's largely due to the recent bannings around here...

He has plenty of potential as a PC, more than just about any possible new character out there (other than maybe Olimar).

no mewtwo is basically human height, but bowser i giant in the games, especially galaxy

and blayde_axel for some reason, the last 12 digest of your wii number register as a veitnam phone number through my skype (if you dint know, skype picks up any number on the internet that contains digets and will put a special highlight thing on it if its a phone number)

Yeah, I think Kraid would be way more fun to fight as a boss than Ridley, AND Kraid has less potential as a playable character.

It'd be nice, but I just don't see it happening somehow. Then again, I never would have thought Mewtwo would be in Melee, either.
