That leak is way too good to be true, listing the 3 newcomers people want the most from this game, not to mention Super Metroid Ridley being the playable one.

Mewtwo isn't a newcomer. Unless you mean Isaac... But typically when people say the "big three" or "3 that everyone wants" its Ridley, K. Rool, and Mewtwo.

Well, was that information about Kraid confirmed and Ridley never was as big as Kraid or even close to his size (if we won`t count original metroid of course).
Idiot said:
Once you get past twice as tall as the main character (and that's ignoring wingspan and tail length), you're getting a bit too big, and he really can't go any smaller.
Bwahahahaha...then Ganondorf is TOO BIG! And K.Rool. And Bowser. And Charizard. And Mewtwo. And DDD. And...few other characters.

But that's what all the Toobigots want us to do, I don't like listening to them. :ohwell:
Kraid was ridicolous in this one...and since its not NES Kraid in Sm4sh if he is there, he will be a lot bigger than Ridley anyway.
Ridley will never be playable. It's not a choice Sakurai makes often, to put sociopathic inhuman monsters in the game. He likes fun character choices like Wii Fit Trainer and Chorus Men.
Well...this is getting kinda weird...Ganondorf, Bowser (mahbe), Mewtwo, etc.

I had a weird dream last night, where Meta-Ridley was revealed to be playable by destroying Roidley on Pyrosphere...

Remember that most of my dreams are premonitory. Most.

A couple of weeks ago I had a dream I went onto the smash site and saw Meta Knight, Ho-oh, and Ridley, all confirmed. No idea why.

What did you guys really expect? Gamefaqs is almost as cancerous as Miiverse and there's always a disturbing lack of intelligence on that site. :troll:

Since when have Ridley and Kraid always been dual bosses? They were dual bosses in like three games. xD Ridley then proceeded to be in like five games by himself.

EDIT: Also yeah. Even if a leak has a character I like, if the leak is extremely badly presented to the point where it's unbelievable i.e. Gematsu then I won't believe it. Obviously. And it goes on the fake leak shelf where I occasionally glance to it with raised eyebrows when people act like it's definitely 500% legit. EVEN if Ridley is there.

Because, and people might not get this, or at least they seem to ACT like they don't: We here believe Ridley can be playable on his own merits without a leak. :troll: Apparently a lot of other people REALLY feel they need leaks as an excuse for their favorite characters to be playable?

Well, Kraid has concept art for prime 1, and Ridley has concept art for prime 2, so they're kinda buddy buddy in that sense

Kraid wasn't in Prime 2, though if Meta Kraid were in Prime 1 they would have been buddies again. I'm just saying, to say "they're always bosses together" is just kind of not correct.

I'm fairly confident now that Samus's super metroid suit design will be an alternate costume. Same with a Meta-Roidley if Sakurai decides to pull it off. I wanna see Samus in the Phazon suit tbh...
This recruit is being toobigoted, Space Pirates. . . AWAY!

Miiverse is enemy territory, soldier. Everytime the word "Ridley" is mentioned there, nuclear strikes fall from every direction. Fortunately, in this smashboards bunker, we're safe from the Toobigots.

Um...actually, few times, nuclear missile succesfuly hit this thread. But no signs of any kind of mutations from that radiation left after impact...hm...i guess a 3rd eye doesn`t counts...right?

"They're all AT LEAST twice as tall as Samus, with SM's looking the smallest because his wings are scrunched up. Once you get past twice as tall as the main character (and that's ignoring wingspan and tail length), you're getting a bit too big, and he really can't go any smaller."

Bowser, Ganondorf, Donkey Kong, and Dedede are deconfirmed SO HARD...

"He wasn't resized if there's a model that can fit him being playable"

Models grow on trees, guys. They don't make models for characters to be playable. They just magically spawn from the ether.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ej5jfinT2gg There, we now have this to go along with the pictures.

On a side note, I have an Idea for a side B move: Ridley lunges at the opponent and if you press B when using this move, Ridley swipes a claw, the sweet spot being at dead center range and will actually grab the opponent, even if they are mid air! They can escape by struggling, and if Ridley throws them in the air, he becomes helpless

Um...twice as tall as the main character...so, Bowser, Ganondorf, DDD, K.Rool, Rosalina, Mewtwo, Charizard, etc.

I still can't believe how legitimately braindead people are when it comes to arguing that Ridley is impossible to make playable. I mean seriously, if we took a montage of every time Bowser was ever a BOSS, he's consistently gigantic. The only time Bowser ever changes size to NOT be gigantic is when he's playable, because *GO FIGURE THIS IS HOW GAME DESIGN WORKS*, characters are designed for their roles.

I swear it's like basic concepts in game design are completely lost on hundreds of people somehow. o_o

But it's so much fun to imagine them as a pinky and the brain duo. Trying to take over the world. or universe. or something.

It was on the last page, but I'm certain it's fake because It stated SM Ridley being playable and Roidley being a hazard, but our shadow analysis confirms Roidley is playable, the tailbone never lies!
Woah, bro. Saying that the shadow work confirms Roidley as playable is a bit much. It makes him seem somewhat likely to be playable, but don't take too much stock in shadows.

Yeah, I'm usually the one to correct people on Mewtwo, but it was just easier to spell it out that way.
