Can't someone just ask Sakurai if Ridley is a boss? Or does he refuse any sort of question on who is in the roaster?

It helps Ridley because the Pic of the Day was ambiguous. It didn't include the "FYI, he's an Assist Trophy" that all the others did.

And yet Sakurai then went immediately to tweet the "oh, he's just an AT, sorry" when people started to get hyped.

It's evidence that Sakurai isn't letting people get hyped for characters who aren't going to be in. He isn't trolling people about characters.

Anyone have that .gif of SSBB Pit doing that glide upwards (Vs Ridley)? I think that and Peach's hover should both be included in the OP for the thread (if they aren't already).

It might help with the argument points listed in the second post, linking it with the footage of Ridley hovering during that SSB Direct.

Can't someone just ask Sakurai if Ridley is a boss? Or does he refuse any sort of question on who is in the roaster?
Well apparently at the E3 '14 SSB conference, Sakurai banned questions on potential newcomer and returning veterans. People would have likely asked about Ridley there if he hadn't. Kind of weird really...

He'd probably just say. "That's for me to know, and you to find out. (laughs)"
I have no idea who you are talking about (laughs). Although I haven't shown his true colors, I'll officialy reveal it at any second

Oh another direct deconfirm.

Yea thats more proof of him deconfirming characters directly not indirectly.

I just hope this wednesday or atleast this month ridleys fate gets revealed. (I want playable which looks like that every minute.)

Hmm? It's early morning here and as usual I'm lost.
We're mourning another disconfirmation. Even if it is good news for Ridley, it's another character not playable. The Prince of the Sablé kingdom is an Assist Trophy, not a playable character.

Ah, I was mainly wondering why I came here for peace and the whole damn thread is on fire.
Because Sakurai made an extra tweet when his original disconfirmation was ambiguous, which is more evidence that he should have said something about Ridley in the massive time (how long was it) since the boss tease.

We feast upon the unfortunate deconfirmed souls, and feed them to our lord & savior, Ridley...

I gotta question my religion at that point. :ohwell:

Normally I'd post a Kill la Kill link of Don't lose your way, but that's too offtopic.
Ridley shan't feast on them, as they were old class mates of his, the toobigots however, is a different story

If Ridley isn't playable he wouldn't be consider a new comer or anything, just ask him if Ridley is a boss like that yellow devil.

Alright thanks, I'm not one of those people who reads the PotD every day. I should probably start doing that.

I've prepared us some souls to feast on.

Character questions were banned, the better question should be something like 'When do we get more information on Pyrosphere' or something in those lines

Mega Sableye destroyed E3 for me, as it was my favorite pokemon other than Greninja

That question is still really easy to answer ambiguously though.

Yeah, it's definitely worth it. There's some nifty info in those. I didn't start until the Robin reveal. As with Brawl, I was trying to contain my hype until release was close. As with Brawl, I got majorly hyped months too early.

with detroyed, I mean that Nintendo already won E3, Sableye made it that much better that E3 turned into dust as smash was the only thing that could compete with my hype levels....Ridley and Sableye hanging out, someone make it happen, and no Soulless, this isn't a shipping attempt don't you dare take credit for the Raydley ship ever again! Wait...Andrea can read this...Sh@t

Nintendo actually failed their E3 victory conditions. All they had to do was show us something about Shin Megami Tensei X Fire Emblem. But they failed.


So, when should we expect confirmation? When would be a good time to put in a standalone video if there's no Direct coming?

If Sakurai's anniversary stuff keeps going on, it HAS to be this month if it is before release, unless Other M being released in September for Japan is valid, and I don't want a penis monster in Fire Emblem thank you very much(I jest, that crossover is still in the works and sounds epic)

Around the 20th of August or early September.

Has anyone compiled a list of all de-confirmed characters? As in characters people thought had a chance but were shown as a assist trophies or just a trophy, just some figures to show people who say the whole Salurai wouldn't just come out and confirm Ridley as a stage boss if he is one.

...Also need a new alt costume for Ridley? Why not Zoidberg?

Prince Sablé has not been added to the OP yet, though.

Off the top of my head:

Waluigi - WarioWare
Ashley - WarioWare
Toad - Mario
Rayman - Rayman
Dark Samus - Metroid
Chrom - Fire Emblem
Takamaru - Mysterious Castle
Prince Sable (?) - Sable Kingdom
Dillon - Rolling Western

There's probably more, but those are just off the top of my head.


EDIT: Damn :4greninja:

-u- Thank you for asking.....sorry if I made you guys worry too much......it, happens....suddenly.

but the fact that I could draw some silly Roidley and Ridley stuff, and my favorite gods together (Ridley, Rayquaza, Quetzalcoatl and Anubis.) is a proof that I'm feeling better....because otherwise, I would not be able to do nothing of it...
Well that's good to hear glad ur okay :nervous:

If Ridley was a Pokemon would he be Dragon/Dark type or Dragon/Poison?

Not that I believe it, but there is a recent leak that favors Ridley...

Basically says we're getting a direct in august that shows off all starting characters (wario Ice climbers ness and falco confirmed specifically) along with chorus men... Then we get a run down of the 3ds version with revamped classic mode (path choice and wagering just like KI Uprising) and a teasing of Wii U features. Apparently at one point there is a boss mode explanation where petey pirhana dark pit and king k Rool are explained just like how the yellow devil was in the April direct...the leaker notes that "Ridley is strangely absent from this section"

Yeah, it's a leak-quality leak. Not really all that believable.

Here is the thing, saying Ridley is absent in a boss mode for the 3ds makes sense if Ridely was indeed a stage hazard, and seeing as how K.Rool is on there, I hope for many people here it's fake.

On a slightly offtopic note, could someone tell me where I go for the leak threads?EDIT: nevermind, found them by luck

How about we come up with Ridley fused with other things as he is a pokemon because why the hell not? I say a beetle version, we could call him Beetley! Oh wait
This reminds me, we have no Kirby hat yet. Need to fix that.

That sounds really dumb. I don't think Ridley will be a boss but I could never see Ridley as playable with K. Rool not being playable. Also, why would Dark Pit be a boss and not an alt for Pit?
