No love for Other M roars? :substitute:
Super Metroid one sounds like a parrot or just a bird IMO...
Reason why Metroid Prime roars sound like that because they are generic monster roars. I heard this kind of roars a lot of times, mostly from T.rexes and other large theropods...

I found Ridley sprite i made don't remember when:

Wings look...um...pixelated, but that is because they were too small to use in their original size. Guess who i used as a base for this sprite?

lol To be honest the parrot-like sounds is why I like his Super Metroid roar. Was intimidating when I was a kid but looking back every time I replayed the game afterward it just made him sound cute.

And eh, not a bad sprite fusion.

Whew! Almost got worried there. Who's he eating?
Also, draw him as a Space Pirate captain next or something. And yes, this includes badass longcoat. Forget to include the longcoat and I'll have a nasty surprise for you...

Sure, I'll draw Ridley in a Black, Purple and Silver version of This
Only cooler

Don't forget that Ridley is nicer to Samus than that guy is

Last time I checked Ridley didn't have Samus slowly boil alive only to let her use her varia suit when she was on he brink of death. So yeah.

Pretty much. Ridley is a worthy rival. The only reason why Samus was shocked was because she was so happy to see her opponent hadn't died yet, so that they could duke it out once more.

And the GF was confirmed to do eeeeeeeeeeviiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiil things in Fusion! IT ALL MAKES SENSE! SAKURAI TEASED RIDLEY SINCE FUSION WAS RELEASED! AND THEN HE DIDN'T INCLUDE RIDLEY AS A PLAYABLE CHARACTER IN BRAWL IN A DESPERATE FAKE OUT!

Story time. <3

One time I was watching the Ridleythread. Suddenly I got real ill and feverish. But after a while I found out that it had nothing to do with this thread. So yeah..

The end <3

Yes, the clone of Ridley is intelligent, but he has no goal besides the killing and eating of anyone on the ship. He is still just a monster.
Click to expand...
Does original Ridley has any real goals? Except for killing Samus of course. I always thought that he just enjoys killing while he can. Didn't he put that above his goal (get that fuel with name i will never remember for more than 1 day) while he was on Samus' homeworld?
SmilingMad said:
And even then, it wouldn't be surprising to me at all if he could somehow have inherited his intelligence through his DNA. No, it doesn't make a lick of sense, but neither do Samus turning into a small sphere and a 2+ meter long reptile emerging from a knee-height small furry owl.
Click to expand...
Actually...it is possible for her to do that. There was a guy that could do same thing, but with a box that was even smaller than morph ball or something like that. As for Furby from hell>large lizard thing - that is possible too. He could be not that big while emerging from...don't remember how it is called...and then grow up after some time or by eating. Adult Ridley could regenerate by eating corpses of humans on Samus' homeworld, so, he could do something like that, but instead of just regrowing missing parts, he would just become bigger.
Also, in Mystery Creature concept art, there is image of a small lizard emerging from Little Birdie's back. It was even smaller than Little Birdie.

...well...not SLOWLY and not BOIL...but he did have Samus fry and allow her to live when she was on the brink of death...Not because he wanted so, most likely because OMG SELF-DESTRUCTION SEQUENCE SET, GTFO!
And what the point of Samus having varia suit if she will go into the lava just to get extra missiles, ignoring common sense, anyway? She did that few times already, so...
You know what? Now i want next Metroid game to have "Chosus" suit that allows her to walk on lava's surface. Instead of just sinking to the bottom and just walking instead well i don't know...SWIMMING.

Acutally, in Prime her morph ball is split down the middle with a sphere of energy inside. So Samus pretty much disintegrates into energy when she morphs.

Also, I think I've seen that concept art? Still, that'd mean Birdley Adolescentley have to grow huge in a very, very short timespan.

He only eats powerful species, yet because he considers himself supirior, he doesn't eat at all.

Still, it is unnecessary since she could do that without anything like that, like any normal person. However, it would make her really dizzy and then...you know...

Remember those enemies from Fusion that go from Zeros or whatever they were called to Ki-Hunters in less than 1 day? If that is possible in Metroid universe, than lizardley growing up so fast is possible too...not that it can be easily explained or something...

He eats his own special cookies that help him keep that...don't know how to call it...or uses his RIDLEYROIDS! Sold in stores since 2010 only for 9.99$.*

It's still incredibly confusing, because the legs on Birdley and the small lizard thing are different lengths and all. And the eyes are in different positions...how does it work? Does it just form a different version inside the old one or somthing, and then it bursts out of the back?
Argh! Science!

Kittens don't look exactly like cats too. So, it is not impossible.

This kind of thing already happens in nature with things like butterflies. So yes, science!

Do you guys think that Ridley will have different win quotes for characters that are not Samus and Zero Suit Samus?

I just hope that Ferbie Ridley gets 0 representation in Smash 4. The less I see of that thing, the better.

And tomorrow, he gets confirmed as an assist trophy that acts like Nintendog, but instead of just blocking the screen, he comes out of nowhere and then eats camera operator. Blood fully covers the camera and then, after 5 minutes of screams and Little Birdie's roars, he lick the camera to remove the blood. Then you realize everyone is dead and then Little Birdie comes out of the screen to eat your face. While Sakurai laughs. Counting his money. What a nice way to represent him...

Oh, and if there is Ridley, then he pets Little Birdie, leaves the stage, then brings popcorn and soda to enjoy the slaughter.

I think he will get at least a trophy.

Maybe they didn't actually have enough Data to fully clone Ridley and so they mixed his DNA with a similar species and that's why Roidley starts off as a furby and then whatever the hell his second form is
