BIG NEWS FOR RIDLEY FANS!!
"In his semi-weekly column in
Weekly Famitsu, series creator Masahiro Sakurai revealed that, much like the player-created
Mii Warrior, Pac-Man was almost a guest character in the Wii game,
Super Smash Bros. Brawl. "During development of
Smash Bros. Brawl, Mr. Shigeru Miyamoto of Nintendo approached me and asked, 'Can't we have Pac-Man as a guest character?'" Sakurai recalled. "At the time, imagining the image of Pac-Man and his incomplete pizza shape, I thought to myself,
'Hmmm... That's a little too farfetched.'"
Sakurai previously thought Pac-man was farfetched, just like Villager being too peaceful, and Little Mac being an assist trophy. I think this bodes will for Ridley regarding Sakurai's previous remarks.
