Important The Ridley for SSB4 Thread - End of an Era

[Exegguter]

But the speculation is what makes the wait worthwhiiiiile...! D:

Speak for yourself. I'm a supporter since the Brawl days, I've had it XD

 

[LockFelino]

I don't like the thought of this thread being locked, but a Mod really needs to temp lock this thread before we cross the line of no return unless people can just calm down and move away from talking about that picture.

How about what potential alt speical moves Ridley could have? For example been able to change between plasma and fire attacks. Need to watch more Ridley videos to remind myself what other alt moves he could use, unless it's just going to be stronger or weaker versions.

I imagine him pulling a Spyro and having multiple breath types. Like fire, lightning. Lightning giving a stun effect or something and fire, a mild burn.

Mate, been one since Melee. I can never get tired of it, just to see what farfetched claims people make.

 

[Aeon Lupin]

To everyone getting up and arms over Vaanrose signature dis confirming more characters, note there is a "probably" on that sig, so he himself doesn't know.

*Cough, *cough

Nice try with the trolling thou.

Non playable characters do have trophies too

Well, which moveset are we using as a base? It's hard to think of custom moves without reference moves.

I'd say something like Mario's Fireball is very likely if Ridley's B is a plasma ball. The variations could be fast and weak, and slow and strong.

So there's something I've noticed in the newcomers's posters on the Smash Bros. site.

Samus is the only one of the original Smash 4 cast (minus newcomers) that hasn't had a prominent appearance in any of them yet.

Sure, she was in the Megaman, Pac-Man, and Wii Fit Trainer posters, but she had to share that with a mess of other characters too, and she wasn't in a position that you'd call "front and center."

Meanwhile, Link and Pit were shown prominently in Palutena's art, Mario got in with Pikachu in the Greninja and Robin posters, Bowser finally got in the action with Shulk's art, Kirby was in Robin's and Shulk's, DK got to fight with Mac in his art, even Fox got to share front and center with Mario in the Rosalina art.

Samus is the only one left to get face time in a poster. I can't imagine why.

 

[SmilingMad]

He can vomit his pure, unfiltered rage, acumulated through his 13 years of waiting, onto nearby targets. He can also make Samus scream at command. I don't think that's a breath type but it sure as hell is hilarious.

Yaaaaay, more strawgrasping evidence supporting our favorite space dragon pirate!

 

[VenomSymbiote]

Well since we're on the subject hasn't Vaanrose or ninka (Who was the other leaker? I could be mistaken...) said anything since the reveal of Shulk?

 

[LockFelino]

I would enjoy that, if only for the image it gives me, just him vomiting out the word "RAGE" in all caps in one long stream.

Since one of Kirby's alt specials for neurtal B is a ice attack, elemental attacks do seem possible, I guess Ridley could even have ice breath as well if you stole from the Nintendo land ice/frost Ridley (forgot the name). Though seems unlikely.

I'd say something like Mario's Fireball is very likely if Ridley's B is a plasma ball. The variations could be fast and weak, and slow and strong.

Guess I should have explained myself a bit more, I was thinking more along the lines of potential moves taken from Ridley's boss fights that could have variation.

What can I say? This is a fun game.

She's actually in Anthony's poster

I swear, we've got enough straws now to feed a bloody space-horse.

That's a ridiculous theory. I love it. Long live Ridley!

 

[Poopmin]

Non playable characters do have trophies too

It describes how he plays though

 

[hotcrumpets]

Ridley disconfirmed i think...

No one knows if its the full roster or not, including vaanrose, he is bsing for attention. He only got his info from one tester, which obviously would not have the full roster.

 

[PeterJude]

7. The weird but unseen derpy Ridley render of him dancing

Eh? Not heard of this one.

 

[Pyropuppet]

Guys, I don't know how I'm going to survive the time until the release. Halp!

 

[ddd87]

AT.

Im convinced now. He's canned and the guy is totally legit.

Space horse? Or space dragon...? :3

A space stallion.

What can I say? This is a fun game.

It is.

A few days ago I noticed the color of the background of the characters on the official website forms some kind of rainbow. Guess what colors are missing? Yes, indeed!

 

[Minato Arisato]

Hope is still alive in this thread?

It'd better be...

 

[LockFelino]

OH GOD POKEMON PURPLE AND GREEN CONFIRMED

We have too many straws...

Can we like donate these somewhere? I feel dirty...

 

[StrangeMann]

If I had to guess, The Source of Ninka/Vaanrose Recieved the same information our leaker did. Considering Ninka/vaanrose didn't come around until the end of July(If I'm correct....Could be wrong), that would be after the ESRB saw the video showing some features of smash 3ds(including some but not all of the remaining newcomers). Ninka/Vaanroses source probably saw the same video around the same time, as the video was probably showcased to the esrb and some NoA members.

Is white also missing? Because there is a certain white psychic type pokemon that likes to do things in Sm4sh.

Yeah, 's true. Nink and Vaan know nothing about the roster that hasn't been revealed yet. Well apart from BowJr having Koopaling alts. So no worries about that picture or anything.

Hope is still alive in this thread?

It'd better be...

Are you kidding? We are Ridley supporters! We are hope incarnate!
We are also a bit nutty, but they don't need to know

 

[Grimfrost]

Well since we're on the subject hasn't Vaanrose or ninka (Who was the other leaker? I could be mistaken...) said anything since the reveal of Shulk?

he tweeted a picture which had as description that the leaked roster is the full roster

 

[Capt. Butt Stallion]

Yeah, in fact it is.

By the way, in case you were wondering, this isn't a joke. I actually put all the colors on Photoshop and sorted them to see what was missing. I'm not kidding.

 

[CrypticSpark]

He admitted it was just a joke, now can we lay this to rest and move back to you know, the main topic of the thread...Ridley?

 

[ddd87]

Good, Ridley deserves only our best efforts.

Imma just... Pick up these straws here... But regardless it is still interesting.

(I'd also be all for a Pokemon Purple. Not even kidding. Take notes Game Freak, take notes)

 

[Hidan]

This is sort of off topic, but has to deal with Ridley, so I thought I'd post it here.

I was playing Kirby's Return to Dreamland and right before the boss fight this song started playing:

Does this remind anyone else of Ridley's theme or is it just me?

Also has it been confirmed that Ridley's theme in this game is from Other M?

 

[Capt. Butt Stallion]

Other M's Vs. Ridley was the one that played on that King Kihunter trophy on the Smash Direct, so it will most likely be the one in the game.

Sounds like somebody hit fast forward on his theme and recorded it with a train in the background

 

[Grimfrost]

Yes!! Hope returned! I don't want to advertise or so but i found a video that covers alot of arguments and it's worth the watch. Mods if i made a mistake and can't do this please delete the video

 

[SchAlternate]

I find it kind of hard to believe that the only unlockables we're ever getting in the game are almost every other veteran we haven't seen yet, some obscure character that's infamous for being hated, a character from a franchise with more than enough characters, and a pair of clones/semi clones.

Then again, that's exactly what Sakurai did for Brawl. /

But yeah, can't wait either. We could have an "I've been wrong" thread, an AndreaAC-praising art thread (it's practically the same), it's going to be so much fun!

>Implying Andrea is the only artist here.

its official, Ridley is not in Smash because Kirby ate Ridley

It's better off if you just leave the link to the video, as opposed to the video itself. (At least I think)

But anyway, I love that video and often go to it to find some intelligent points when I start to doubt myself.

it's one of the best in my opinion, they make really good points that havn't been disproven yet.

I hope Sakurai took precautions and this is all part of his trolling. He knew Western Nintendo employees would probably leak something.. Watch the Duck Hunt Dog model be that of a trophy, but he put it in the ESRB video to FOOL US ALL-

This thread was already temp locked. Twice. Most recently on the Shulk reveal. Third time won't be temp. So we just gotta keep our cool.
