"Pic of the Day: Here we have our little friend interacting with Midna from The Legend of Zelda, Twilight Princess, added as our newest addition to the assist trophy library. Who is this little guy anyway??"

Can you at least put a spoiler for these, because this is seriously making me unconformable.

Wow. That one hurts. Why so much more graphic than the others?

Still fun. But... Yikes.


Someone needs to compile all of these into one place.

Seeing those images kinda makes me uncomfortable, even though they're just drawings.

The problem I find with them is that if the respective fans see these images, they may end up becoming detractors (if they aren't one already)...

There's enough of those (detractors) already, we don't need any more ._.

This thread is glorious and this post is otherwise pointless. But I am loving the amount of fun people are having with the teasing. Ridley for Smash all the way, for reasons that people have already said a million times.
Wait you're here too man?

With that last one, I kind of agree. I didn't mind the others, because the characters could be interpreted to get away, with Birdley just chasing after them and nibbling away chunks, which I was fine with.

That whole graphically dismembering a beloved character thing... That's kind of taking it too far.

What will happen if there's a collectible trophy reveal of Little Birdie?

Collectible doesn't matter, he's attacking the Assist Trophies.

If he's revealed as an Assist, it just means he fought his way onto the Assist Roster. :)

You know the image with Midna made me despise Little Birdie even more than I already do, so if there's a trophy reveal with that thing, that means I'm going to kill it with plasma....or I'm going to kill it with Ridley...

I will draw that later when I return from school I hope.....

Yeah. I can understand that people like him, I mean, he has finger guns, arm guns, turns into a cannon gun thing, hes pretty damn cool. But I feel bad for them, because despite Geno's popularity (which would normally ensure at least an assist trophy or sticker) he is doomed to never being able to enter the game because We Can't Have Nice Things-Enix. It's worse than what Ridley had to face, because Ridley had an actual chance to get in. Geno, being mercilessly locked away in Squeenix's torture dungeon vault, will never see the light of day again.

But I'm tangentiating. It's weird that there was such a strong rivalry, I wonder how that hatred came into existence, and why.
AS true as this is, there are currently plans, no matter how hopelessly idealistic they may seem, to mount a rescue effort. Check out the Geno support thread sometime. =p

Also Ridley. Ridley pwns.

If the theory that Ridley is both a boss and a playable character holds true, in addition to Little Birdie as an assist trophy... I will be thoroughly convinced that Sakurai believes that Ridley is too big (prominent) to only have one role in the game.

Okay, I need to see Pong happen next and not Waluigi or I'd be pissed.


Because, you know, Pong totally had a chance for being a playable character...

Y'know what really grinds my gears? This "Ridley is too big" crap is so popular that even GamesRadar uses it to describe why they don't think Ridley is in, but GamesRadar is GamesRadar, they almost never get anything right. Heck they predicted Lucario out of all possible Pokemon reps would be cut from the game.

They once thought before that Marth was going to get cut and Lucina would replace him because "she's a girl", right?

Yeah, turns out that wasn't necessary at all. I think of GamesRadar as being the equivalent to GameFAQs users.

To be fair, so did 80% of the community, even though cutting the most popular "modern" Pokémon wouldn't make any sense.

I'm actually looking forward to comments like these on Ridley's (eventual) reveal trailer.

I really hate how detractors tend to be more insulting and mean to Ridley fans than Ridley fans are to detractors.

I've only seen one supporter get aggressive to someone when they said he's too big to be playable. Every other supporter I've seen in arguments have remained calm and presented their evidence on why they think Ridley will be playable and they usually get attacked for it.

I've seen countless anti-Ridley people get way more mean and downright dirty with their insults.

I hate how they paint all Ridley fans as insane delusional idiots. That is why I really hope that he is a character because it would be tremendously funny to see them get shut up. It would be sweet delicious justice.


Sorry, just had to get that off my chest.

Mewtwo fans are the worst. lol

I think Lucario looks much cooler than Mewtwo, so I was glad to see it back.
I really, really want Mewtwo back, but I wouldn't mind seeing him get disconfirmed if it meant having a front-row seat to seeing these fans' salt flowing.

I am indifferent towards Mewtwo, but yeah, salty tears are the best. As long as those tears aren't from Ridley supporters.

The longer we go without info the more pessimistic I get about Ridley's chances.

not for any logical reasons, I'm just really bad at waiting.
