His sheer size.
Ridley is so too big, that if you make any attempt to look like Ridley, you become too big. Even if your size doesn't change.
Meta Knight, Pit, Palutena, and Charizard deconfirmed.I posted this pic on the Smash Bros subreddit.
Response has been mostly positive. Jokiest detraction has been "2Wide4Smash", worst there's been is people thinking his wings basically deconfirm him.
Wings r 2 cheep
If the wings clipping are a problem then bowser deconfirmed for clipping on battlefield!I posted this pic on the Smash Bros subreddit.

So with Ridley logic:If the wings clipping are a problem then bowser deconfirmed for clipping on battlefield!
Actually, that's because he's too purple.Honorable mention: No Mewtwo either because his neck is too thin.
Oh dear god...He looks even more like Panic from Disney's Hercules than the original. That was a problem I had with Brawl's design, aside from him having googly eyes.Oh my god, that is actually horrifying.

Oh, ok, so you changed the model up a bit too? Interesting. Does the tail have a hitbox?Oh my god, that is actually horrifying.

Funny you say that, considering Meta Ridley's wings in Prime are freaking humongous.
Oh, I can't take credit for this, it's all LST's work, I just picked up the model and tweaked it a tiny bit.
xD That would be silly...I mean, it not like Ridley is going to swallow a character and then...puke it out (because I don't see him using Yoshi's.....mechanism...).I don't know, I had someone seriously tell me Ridley's neck being thin was the exclusive reason as to why he couldn't be playable.
Guess they've never seen Roidley.
Still a cool find.
Unless Ridley's neck functions like that of a snake.
That wouldn't even matter anyway, because snakes swallow things wider than their necks all the time. I don't see why Ridley's neck can't stretch like that.
My god...They've been scaling him down from the start...Funny you say that, considering Meta Ridley's wings in Prime are freaking humongous.
Compared to his Brawl model.
Well, yeah, but he obviously can't be scaled down further. Anything more would just totally ruin Ridley's character, so it's impossible that he could ever be playable. Duh.
Didn't the transition from Ridley to Meta Ridley in SSE also shrink Ridley down?
Yeah, I think it is like that...and by mechanism I meant the way Yoshi gets out a character after swallow them,,,the eggs xD
Yep. But none of that matters according to the detractors.
Metroid being WAY bigger in the West should have been a hint for him
I don't think any of us know how much he actually cares about what kind of characters a very decent number of western Smash fans (not just competitive, but all fans) want. :/
Little Mac.Metroid being WAY bigger in the West should have been a hint for him
That left image is isometric. It's making the farther wing look bigger than it really is.
I think his wings could even be bigger. They seem a little unproportioned.I posted this pic on the Smash Bros subreddit.

Oh, yeah, you are right, -u- hehe I have always got a bit of problems with isometric views,...
That's probably the perspective.The wings are almost going straight sideways.
I can't prove it, but think that Sakurai thought that Ridley was an iconic character in Metroid, but not one that would be warranted playability, much like how the Yellow Devil is an iconic Mega Man boss or Gohma is an iconic Zelda boss.Metroid being WAY bigger in the West should have been a hint for him
I'm not generalizing at all. I'm saying we don't know what goes on in his head and how much he cares about what western fans want. Little Mac was a good call though, another thing bigger in the west. Hell, the NES version's theme has been heard in sports arenas in North America. Mike Tyson's Punch-Out was HUUUUUGE, yes.
No, both models are same in size. Only his head and wings are different. And i like his head more.
Um, I guess it is true, but I don't pay too much attention to that when I draw him...No, both models are same in size. Only his head and wings are different. And i like his head more.
Here is a proof:
So does this mean that Ridley in Brawl was never too big to begin with?No, both models are same in size. Only his head and wings are different. And i like his head more.
Here is a proof:
I'll admit that I've hardly played Mega Man, but I have known about the characters and some of the more infamous bosses in the series. I've never heard of Yellow Devil until the E3 2013 event.
That's not proof, he can be scaled differently in the actual game. You'd have to look at gameplay to compare them properly.No, both models are same in size. Only his head and wings are different. And i like his head more.
Here is a proof:
He is scared of our legions.
