New Ridley supporter here.

Thinking about him, how awesome he would be, and how much he deserves in, has convinced me to throw in my support for him.

Were you the one with that Rate and Discuss thread?
Your username seems familiar.
Besides Phazon, since E3 is so distant, all we can hope is to discuss and speculate, and hope that someone comes along and notices the discussion, and learns from it.

 

[Dark Phazon]

There will defo be atleast 1 or 2 info's now matter how little they be we will get that from now untill E3.

Lets just hope thay Nintendo Direct On Jan31 is true Aniversery of Brawl in JPN.

I dont give a crap im extremely impatient atm and i will admit it.

GTA 5 Will hopefully last me 6-8 Months.

 

[TheJohnMonster]

I also play Xbox and just got the new Far Cry. One of the weirdest games I have ever played, hands down. When I'm not skinning sharks, I'm in LSD knife fights, getting tattooed up, and blowing people's heads off.
It's entertaining.

 

[Dark Phazon]

Far Cry 3 Amazingggg got one more radio tower to do and have liberated all camps.

add me
GT,: DARK PHAZ0N

loooool sorry so of topic xD

But yh ''ChronoBound'' mad resepect homie you is a real Ridley legend.

 

[TheJohnMonster]

I've been on all the wiki sites lately. I can read the history of things like metroid and star wars for hours.
But it's got good detail on Ridleys forms if you want to read them.

 

[Dark Phazon]

Yes! i was doing that the other day.

Thats how i found out about the space pirate rankings.

1.Mother Brain
2.Ridley
3.Kraid

You know Kraid was gonna be a boss on metroid prime gc in phazon mines! my god how epic would that have been!!!! but he wasent due to...yep...u guessed it.. ''time constraints.' good ol.

 

[lanky_gunner]

His render is amazing, and I wish he could of made it into one of the Prime games.

heres the art to it.just the art alone you know it would have been more epic for words to describe.

 

[Ridley_Prime]

Kraid being cut in Prime wasn't even the half of it. Check out all this. A Phazon Mother Brain, concepts of what could've been for Ridley in the game in terms of design & character, and more...

http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=470310

Sure would've liked to fight that four-armed ice beast in Phendrana, at the very least.

 

[Dark Phazon]

Wow.and without all that Prime1 is still the best in the prime triolgy and my fav metroid game...

 

[Ridley_Prime]

Same here pretty much, though Echoes and Corruption have quite their share of cut material as well.

 

[Dark Phazon]

I hated Echoes at first but now i see i like it.
its better then corruption..curroption was the weakest in the series imo.the beams sucked
in it..

Damn plasma beam in prime 1 was crazyy beast and light beam in echoes <3 like a shotgun burst.

 

[Deleted member]

So Ridley was going to be possessed, and become a good guy?
That should have been done.

And Ridley in Smash could switch between "Good" Ridley and "Bad" Ridley.

 

[Dark Phazon]

When was Ridley ever a good guy/thing../Dragon!??

 

[Deleted member]

Yeah, I was the guy that did Rate Their Chances. I do plan to host another round once the Smash 4 trailer comes around, but I don't think now is the time.

 

[Deleted member]

@Dark Phazon: ....did you even look at the concept art that was posted right above when you said "Wow.and without all that Prime1 is still the best in the prime triolgy and my fav metroid game..."?

There's one where Ridley is a "Dark Possessed Ridley" and he's more Chozo-like than dragon-like. He apparently wasn't hostile to Samus in this state and even was supposed to help her.

Oww..snap..i didnt..my bad lemme see.

Wow!

 

[Deleted member]

Imagine that.
Samus' archnemesis and the one who orphaned her as her helper.
Although, I could see it like a Jekyll and Hyde situation with split-personality.

And this would raise a personal issue within Samus. She wants to kill Ridley, but if she does, then Chozo-Ridley, a close ally, will be killed too.

 

[Dark Phazon]

Cant wait untill prime4 damnnnn Kraid on WiiU? Holyyyy ****!!!!!!!!

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

That whole Chozo Ridley thing puts a new spin on the whole Samus X Ridley relationship

 

[Dark Phazon]

lol good one.

Would have to disagree with you there about Corruption, especially regarding the beams. The nova beam although not original, was pretty sweet, and I liked how you could use the plasma beam to repair things. Also had a better design than the one in Prime 1.

If there is a weakest game in the trilogy for me it would have to be Echoes, though none of them are particularly "weak".

So Ridley was going to be possessed, and become a good guy?
That should have been done.

And Ridley in Smash could switch between "Good" Ridley and "Bad" Ridley.

I agree, that would've been a most interesting take on the character. I'm guessing after a battle with Meta-Ridley at the Phendrana Drifts or something (since she briefly came across him there after getting the boost ball), she later would've encountered Chozo-Ridley at the Artifact Temple after collecting all the Chozo artifacts, then he would've helped her defeat Metroid Prime in the Impact Crater. And for the sake of continuity, the Chozo would then either release Ridley from their control after Prime is defeated, or would lose control of him due to their strength and sanity waning as corrupted spirits (remember, Phazon corruption affected the Tallon IV Chozo in the afterlife too).

 

[TheJohnMonster]

I would prefer a first person, like the primes, style gameplay for the next metroid. But I have to want a fusion sequel than a prime 4.
Maybe using the data from the other m ship, they could clone another Ridley to hunt down samus since she become a wanted criminal for destroying the station, if I remember correctly.

 

[Ridley_Prime]

For tradition's sake, I would still want a Fusion sequel to be a sidescroller, or 2.5D.
Maybe.

Man, after looking again at much of the crapped material for Echoes and Corruption as well...

http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=471418

http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=472136

They could perhaps easily make another trilogy with just the cut content alone (stuff like Kraid, Mother Brain, and Chozo-Ridley in Prime, "Light Suit" Dark Samus in Echoes, Skeletal Ridley and Crocomire in Corruption, etc).

Do it Retro!
Ah, who am I kidding?

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

I'm not a fan of First person games

 

[TheJohnMonster]

I haven't even read half of the corruption page and already I am disappointed.

 

[TheJohnMonster]

I'm not a fan of First person games

Don't get me wrong the 2D games were fun. But the primes let Samus's power armor expand and better perform its abilities. The different beams had practical functions instead of just more damage.
And now, after reading those pages on the left out content, i feel like crying for all the material that was cut. I liked the Metroid 1.5 section, with the proposed storyline.

 

[Yomi's Biggest Fan]

Cant wait untill prime4 damnnnn Kraid on WiiU? Holyyyy ****!!!!!!!!

This. Kraid has been abandoned long enough, Nintendo.

(Nintendo Land Kraid doesn't count)

 

[TheJohnMonster]

Kraid would make an interesting boss in a prime 4 or fusion sequel.

 

[Opossum]

Could be cool if he took Ridley's spot as a Metroid boss for Smash 4.

This
It would provide some challenges. As most bosses move and dodge and such, I don't see Kraid doing that.

 

[Dark Phazon]

yh but Ridley is ranked higher then Kraid in Space Pirate ranking so it would be abit silly...

It would make more sense for it to be mother brain a boss in Sm4sh.

But Kraid would proberly be a better boss fight then mother brain though.

Im basing this all on if Ridley is playable by the way..if hes not! (-_-) Then bring on Kraid boss no doubttttt!!!!.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Being a higher rank doesn't necessarily mean they are stronger than the person below them.

Real life doesn't work that way...

They don't have some sort of power level.

Ridley probably could take Kraid out, but that's not necessarily why he's the higher rank

But this isn't real life, it's fiction.

 

[TheJohnMonster]

I thought that in super metroid, the three bosses make up the high command, who then report to mother brain.
Why would it matter their rank.

3 bosses? You mean 4, right?

 

[Dark Phazon]

What weired is that Yes hes right theres 4

Ridley.Mother.Kraid and Weavel!

If anything even though Weavel doesnt have a ship...it just as easily be Weavel at the end of Prime3 to take revenge on Samus for blowing half his body apart xD.

Weavel damnnn cool but yes Weavel or Sylux.

 

[Robert of Normandy]

I meant bosses in Super Metroid. There's 4: Kraid, Phantoon, Draygon, and Ridley.

Not counting Mother Brain and Crocomire(or any other boss), just bosses that are part of the golden statue.

 

[TheJohnMonster]

Forgot phantoon. I thought it was Ridley, Kraid, and Crocomire, not dragyon.
It's been a while
