Important The Ridley for SSB4 Thread - End of an Era

[Ridley won't be playable]

Fine by me, just get a detractor in here xD

But where would you find somebody like that?

GameFAQs, probably.

Does this adjustment look better?​

See that's a lot better. Nailed it.

And before I vanish into the shadows completely, here's a T-stance comparison with added DK​

​

As you can see, Ridley is almost twice as tall as Samus, making him the biggest character. But his lowered battle stance makes him fit in just fine as you guys can see from the previous comparisons.​

Can we see another comparison later with some smaller characters, too?

I think, you stretch out his wings and tail just a tad and that's the perfect Ridley model. Glad to hear he'll be at least strongly considered for Project M.

I personally think that the tail is the perfect size as is, even if the wings should be a little more prevalent.

Perfect size and posture if you ask me.

Wait, has the Project M team really given word of that? If so, I hope they're going to take it quite seriously, else we're going to end up with something detractors will constantly throw in our faces. I know the team is awesome and all, but Ridley isn't an easy character to make, not to mention he'd be the first completely new and unique character they'd make.

 

[Oasis_S]

Oh wow, he's bigger than I thought, lol.

So good.

From what I'm skimmed over in the Project M thread, Ridley's boss model is detailed enough to where he could become a workable character (to put it in perspective, Assist Trophy models are not detailed enough - citation needed?). Regardless of whether or not he's in SSB4, people are going to request him for Project M by the truckload, whether to play as a beloved character after he's been repeatedly snubbed by a delusional developer or so they can play as Super Metroid Ridley, not Other M Ridley.

The way I envision Ridley, his wings would be outstretched like Charizard's and his tail would be on the ground like Mewtwo's, but that model is still visually mouthwatering. Two thumbs way up.

Thats right no more awkward "very hunched pose", and more badass two feet stand pose!

I'm not sure what you're referring to ^.^

aaaaaand all arguments saying ridley is to big just died with this one post

 

[EddyBearr]

Ridley's thread is too big.

start at 1:39 end at 2:17

1:47 the moment you got this picture ready
1:49 you clicked the post button
1:51 this is what just happen to 90% of all ridley is too big agruers
1:58 everyone agree with this being the best comparison picture
2:06 the ridley is too big guys being mad because this proves they are wrong about ridley being too big and looks weird shrunken
2:13 the ridely haters are retreating

 

[Groose]

While we're on size comparisons... this one I found doesn't look half bad. He looks completely badass.

Not as good as the one earlier on this page, though. That one is a masterstroke.

 

[BKupa666]

GUYS! GUYS!!

 

[SmasherMaster]

GUYS! GUYS!!

Unless Ridley is an Assist Trophy and Mewtwo is a Pokeball Pokemon, this is completey fake because then there would be six character fighting at the same time!

 

[Johnknight1]

GUYS! GUYS!!

I saw the rest of Ridley in the water.

I also saw Captain Planet on the plane.

 

[BluePikmin11]

GUYS! GUYS!!

Mewtwo is too big

 

[AnOkayDM]

Oh god, imagine if Mewtwo was downgraded to Poké Ball status. That'd be the biggest slap in the face ever.

 

[Deleted member]

GUYS! GUYS!!

I may not have been on the boards during the time, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't remember the period of "Ridley, Bowser, Mewtwo, and Ganondorf are in the clouds!"....

 

[BKupa666]

The best thing is, it very well could have been Ridley, Bowser, Master Hand (not Mewtwo), and Ganondorf in the clouds, seeing as how they all played sizable roles in the SSE. We may never know for sure. It's just the sheer ridiculousness of the 'Ridley in the clouds' possibility that makes that time period so notorious.

 

[Angelglory]

Alright, one last size comparison! Just look how naturally Ridley fits in!

Personally, I love it. The size would likely make him easy to KO in-game, though.

 

[BKupa666]

At least he'd be more difficult to KO in-game than his boss appearances in Brawl.

Ouch.

More like kick in the nuts!

I just had a dream that Ridley was revealed as an Assist Trophy, where he starts out really really tiny, like the size of Kirby, then after a number of seconds he grows to a giant size. Like Sakurai was specifically poking fun at the too big thing. There was also a Pokeball update saying Kirby could suck up any Pokemon and gain their ability.

To be clear, it was a dream or a nightmare?

I like that one.

Not gonna lie, that does seem rather plausible. Though I wouldn't be shocked that, if included He'd be a bit shorter than the model you just made. Also, I feel that Charizard should be taller in Smash.

 

[ChronoBound]

Guess what guys, this is the third week in a row without a Pyrosphere picture.

Sakurai is also done trolling Pokemon fans it seems.

However, Sakurai may strike back next week....

Spoiler

with a Mii confirmation.

 

[MasterOfKnees]

Tbh, I kind of miss the Pyrosphere updates, mostly just because it's a cool stage, but also the overspeculation part

 

[Smashoperatingbuddy123]

Ones things for sure i hope ridley does get announced for a special case because of being the most wanted character and if theres a new metroid game for the wii u ridley could be golden

 

[Ridley_Prime]

I don't miss the overspeculation personally, but even if we did still have that along with more Pyrosphere pictures, I'd be playing Pokemon too much to care, as much.

 

[Scoliosis Jones]

I preferred when we got character updates .

I'm spoiled
