True that. I didn't even knew who Kirby was prior to Smash. Then again, Smash 64 was like one of the first games I ever played.
It's going to be an inversion of Little Mac's trailer.
that would be perfect haha
I began gaming with the N64. A few weeks after we got it, my father brought in almost two dozen new games, which he got off some guy at a bargain. In retrospect, I would learn that I was lucky to have received many N64 classics - including SSB.
I just think Sakurai would have shown Ridley already if he was just a stage hazard for the Pyrosphere. Instead, he showed Mother Brain in the exact same stage and even mentioned Mother Brain's size in the caption. I don't know, he is making too much myster. If Ridley isn't in, which is entirely possible, that would just further prove that Sakurai is a big troll. It would also make me thing that he has no respect for his fans. Also, Ridley being playable AND a stage hazard is a possibility, since there are more than one Ridley in the Metroid series.
Honestly. Alfonzo/Toon Link.
Or...he might not just feel Ridley is suited for being playable.
Uh, I am sure you know that is not what I meant. He as a developer have the right and knowledge to know if Ridley is or isn't suitable for playable. He knows more than any of us here. But hinting that Ridley may be playable in the new games, talking about character sizes far more than once, not showing Ridley as the stage hazard, even knowing people would speculate a lot about that, showing Mother Brain (an enemy from Samus' past) in the stage Ridley is supposed to be hazard, etc. Now that is what I am talking about. If he did all of that, just for fun or trolling, then he has no respect for any of his fans.
I will never count Samus and Samus as different characters. But ok.

1. Everything popular will get detractors.
I feel that this deserves to be in every Ridley supporter's signature.
Fix'd.
AAAAAAAHHHH
It wont. lol
If all they cared about was making games for children, then why does Metroid exist?... And the Dumbest Ridley hater on Miiverse Award goes to: https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYQHAAABAAC_UqFLc-3orw

"Nintendo's main target audience are children. Metroid isn't as well known with children. So, to add a character they don't know and probably wouldn't choose would be a waste of a place on the roster."
I stand corrected. I guess the only way to put an end to them all, it to have Ridley announced. See, Sakurai? You have no choice!
Pretty much.
in that case we should scrap mother, kid icarus, fire emblem, punch out!! and even zelda too.
Confirmed Dutchman.AAAAAAAHHHH
also i made this post today on miiverse ( after getting attacked for just saying ridley confirmed for fun and kicks )
personally, i love to stir up tome trouble and arguments.
but this just sad people. it's not like the people on miiverse are making the game.
really just glad today's update might have stopped the ''too big'' argument.
now we still have the ''too scary'' argument. if that's the case then grow some real balls. i mean seriously i WANT to see ridley with the bunny hood shrank down by a poison mushroom. he's just as much nintendo as mario or kirby are.
This makes me want to laugh. And I still want to see Ridley with the bunny hood, like Ganondorf in that other pic.I think the best way we could see Ridley in Smash, is by, for better or worse, using the Other M design.
To be honest, when it comes to Ridley, it's not really just size, it's his proportions. This is really apparently in his Super Metroid design. I really can't imagine those thin limbs and long, skinny neck on a smaller, playable character.
This makes me want to puke. Although, the OM design kinda wants to make me puke as well, but his proportions are much more compact and less ganky looking. The only real major difference shown in the image above is that he's just been downsized a bit. Granted, there still might be problems with the long wings and tail, but his the actual body of his OM design doesn't translate nearly as bad as the SM design in a smaller form.
His boss fight in Other M looked like what you expect from a Ridley boss fight I don't see why it would be different as a playable character since he would have these moves in his moveset.
