I really ******* love that ******* "Foul Mouth" ******* leak. It ******* seems pretty ******* cool. And it ******* has ******* Ridley. Clearly, this ******* leak is the ******* ****.


That flight mechanic sounds nice though.

So we're discussing two leaks here? Tester and dixie leak? What is this dixie leak? And what is this tester leak? They both support dixie or what?
I don't know much about the dixie leak, but check a couple pages back under a spoiler warning for the foul mouth.

Ridley's all but confirmed for me at this point, so I don't care for any leaks unless Porky, Pig Ganon, or Paper Mario is included.

Another day, another person on the internet writing off Ridley's size in SSB4 because they don't like what it shows.

I ain't buying this 'leak' rofl. If you really want to share secrets why make 10000 posts about how you're trying to prove it is really you. Plus the 'imma be gon but imma get yall sum more **** wen im back yo rofl'' is really really bad.

**** all these attentionwhores tbh.

Don't mean to offend, but do you REALLY think Ridley is 100% confirmed playable at this point? Because to me, it seems he has about t a 10% chance, and that's being generous.

Yep.

The dancing around the issue, the questionable size, the odd behavior of the supposed boss, and the fact that not once has Sakurai said his name, much less what Ridley does all but confirms him for me.

It's pretty much Palutena over again.

Yes. Given context and visual evidence it's easy to see how people could think he's sitting pretty well. But we'll really only know when the game comes out the way things are looking.

While I can't claim to share your absolute confidence in Ridley, I do have to agree that Ridley and Palutena are quite comparable.







There are some very obvious similarities here.

Or he's feigning ignorance so the leak doesn't look too precise (since most have really detailed descriptions that only Sakurai himself would know about).
Pretty much the case. I've seen similar behavior from a legit leaker on NeoGAF. Instead of trashy talkin' though it was rily ilegib typi sUmthg lek DIS ur somthng an' persinz ned 2 figr deh poostout...

Basically very wacky, intentionally wrought with grammar and spelling atrocity. The point is to avoid any and all use of typical posting style in order to be rendered untraceable by anybody wanting to track down the leaker and punish them.

This "Foul-Mouthed Leaker" maybe a more legible but otherwise similar situation where the leaker is trying not to be traced back.

Or the guy knows about the stuff we're talking about now (since if we can know it, anyone on the internet can) and posted that way on purpose

Didn't see much discussion when I posted this before. But this leak "Foul Mouthed Leaker" is interesting because it came before the new leak that includes Dixie, and the guy may not actually be lying.

The reason being that he legitimately did not know how to use 4chan, and he left his email on the account and everything. He also couldn't figure out the whe thread system.

Explicit Language warning:

Literally my prediction roster.

So apparently all iconic Nintendo characters are playable in the game already, meaning Ridley's not "iconic".

Oh Ridlephobes...
"I've always wanted to see Chorus Men and the Wii Fit Trainer playable ever since I was a wee tot! Now I ain't never heard of this Ridley fellow, he sounds like a stupid meme created over the fact that Metroid only has Samus to play as. Samus and Sexy Samus are all that we need fo' that franchise, so suck up and enjoy yo goddamn game!"

Is it still a parody if it's still in essence what some people seriously say?

EDIT: I forgot to put out, I told a toobigot about larger NES sprites and they accused Metroid of being the only NES game with hardware limitations. Yeeeeep.

I'm curious as to how Sakurai decided Ridley would be the character to get the most subtle hype. Sure Palutena got some too, but nobody compares overall to what Ridley's received. If Sakurai headed a Metroid game previously then it'd make a little more sense, but as things stand it's rather odd. Yeah Ridley's popular, but he ain't the most popular character out there.
