One of my pet peeves is when people say, "Well, you've got Charizard if Ridley doesn't make it in. They're both dragons." That doesn't even make sense. They're not related or even in the same FRANCHISE. That's like, "Oh, you want Isaac? Well, if he doesn't get in, you've always got Link, who's also blonde and has a sword."

Would definitely explain the odd head shape given the multiple eyes.

So that thing is supposed to be Ridley? Who made it? Why did they make it? I figured it was something from some other game....how creepy....:urg:

Other M Ridley ain't looking so bad now, huh?
Yeah, but it's the difference between being stabbed in the eyes, or being stabbed in the eyes AND neutered.

If I could follow up on it, I would grievously injure myself if Sm4sh Ridley is horribly-designed. ZS Samus actually looks like a hardened badass compared to her Other M design, so I'm positive Ridley will get a similar beautifying/badassifying makeover.

All the event stuff for E3's going to be at late times for where I am, Nintendo's Digital direct thing's at 9am PT, that's 5pm for me ._.

And that tournament thing, I think it's meant to be 4pm PT, which is 12am BST (Wednesday 11th).

As much as I want to watch the tournament, I don't really want to stay up that late XD

So it's not a shark and Roidley hybrid.

It's a whale and Roidley hybrid.
"Although the knowledge that his 'brother' impregnated a shark to spawn a monstrous aberration was already shocking enough, Ridley soon found out an even weirder reality: Roidley's son was not from a shark, but from a whale. The whale in question, repulsed by her offspring, ditched Roidley and doomed him to rise his miscarriage of a son. Roidley's incompetence gave him several problems with fatherhood, but he was then aided by Bertha, a female shark, and they brought up the kid together.

Ridley's stomach was absolutely twisted in disgust after hearing the full story, and was really pissed of at his useless clone for getting himself into a lot of trouble...."

Now I'm going to ask for a roster icon of that Ridley. :troll:

Also, this is where the build of Ridley began
"...But he then soon find out something more gruesome. 'Roidley' and 'Bertha' were actually GIANT MUTANT uh LIOPLEURODONS FROM A DIFFERENT DIMENSION THAT COULD SHAPESHIFT! They immediately lunged into Ridley to devour him brutally... only to be swiftly exterminated by Ridley's fiery breath. He then ordered ordered his minions to clean up the mess and make sure no evidence of it has ever happened.

Meanwhile, Roidley, who is still at the bottom of a lake, is trying to find the Loch Ness monster, of whom he has heard about many times. Little does he now, he's actually in its belly."

At least during the final moments before the Digital Event we can say for real that an enemy from Samus' past will appear at any second.

Me, wherever there's some Ridley support.

"Eh, those guys that say he's too big aren't that much of a hassle."

Me, wherever Toobigots are the majority.

"Ugh... urge to kill... harvesting... within me..."

A forum I frequent to (other than here), there seems to be some hope. There's another user still holding onto hope for Ridley, he may become a Space Pirate member yet.

Surprised no-one here's posted this little gem yet:



Clearly fake (you'll be able to spot why real fast), but still neat for other reasons.

And then someone replies to the guy saying Ridley was "de-confirmed"...

I'm trying to resist the urge to post why they're wrong, but I know what the result will be if I do ._.
