well guys I finally can give you my little Ridley-surprise
if you like apps then you will love my surprise
I wanted to finish it before E3 but I could use the computer only to watch the E3 so I did it after E3
I didn't find enough gifs so the last pictures are images but I think it isn't a real problem because almost nobody can finish it :awesome:
ANYWAY HERE YOU ARE

People shouldn't be getting excited for a big August reveal, we already got a Smash-centered direct, and Nintendo's E3 2014 was pretty much the Smash 4 show. 1 (or 2 if Sakurai didn't reveal a veteran prior to the direct) final newcomer reveal is probably what we're gonna get, and it'll probably be Chrom or Shulk, since they're marketable characters that appeal more to the Japanese and they haven't yet gotten a character for them revealed yet (plus the game comes out in a month for them afterward).

If Ridley and Mewtwo are in, I guarantee they'll be kept secret unlockables, so we won't know their status before playing the game (or looking up spoilers/leaks), unless Sakurai actually decides to reveal the whole roster before release (which is very unlikely, especially when he said at E3 that he wants to keep some stuff secret).

I was mostly asking people here, but whatever works. It's probably fine still from what I've heard.
Zero Mission is still good yeah, but it does have some glaring flaws. I still consider it the second best 2D Metroid personally though, and the third best game in the entire series.

Well we have three months to wait. Then we'll DEFINITELY have a ****ing answer.
He's been teasing us since October. OCTOBER.
I don't think at this point Ridley's in, but at least I hope Sakurai will show us how does he work on Pyrosphere.

Actually, he's been teasing us since August with the Pyrosphere comment.

If ridley nor mewtwos fate is not shown till after the release of the japan version right there pretty much prooves ridley is in, and both of them have to be unlocked.

This is evidence that ridleys fate is most likely here because it would be a full year since the pryoshere.

Then we have Prime 1, Prime 2, Prime 3 (Which I personally think is the best one but I've been disagreed with), Prime Hunters (Which is ALSO awful in terms of single player)...
It's strange, I actually really like both Prime 1 and 2 more than 3, but I've noticed a lot of people hate on 2 for a lot of different reasons. I really quite liked the ammo management and mirror world things it had going, but those are often cited to be the worst parts. It's impossible to choose a "best" one when everyone has different tastes. :V

Ridley is on RTC again. And the general consensus is the same as always. :rolleyes:

At least he's fairing better then Sceptile.
It appears there are two kinds of people for Ridley:

Those who think he's a lock, and those who think he hasn't got a snowball's chance in hell. Or, you know, people who are 50/50 and just don't care.

Just had a thought, and possibly something to look out for if we get any more pictures of Smash run

This picture was taken from the Smash Bros. direct



As you can see there's 3 (if you don't included warp) powers, Samus's Power Bomb, Meteor Shower = Ness/Lucas PK Starstorm? renamed, Plauntena's Heavenly Light,

Taken from Smash Bros E3 (2014)



Same could be said for that picture but Horizon beam being Paluneta's Mega Lazer and Dual Cyclone being a variation of Meta Knight's Mach Tornado

So what's the point of me bringing this up you ask? Well we have 2 moves belonging to 3 veterans from Brawl, which people seem certain at least 2 of them (Ness and Meta Knight will return), so we might see some possible moves in smash run that could be used by Ridley

Not really much to go off though just came to mind

Will this thread be the social thread once/if Ridley is revealed or will a new one be created?

Yeah this'll probably reach 1000 pages before Sakurai gives us a definite answer.
Maybe he's waiting on the 1000th page to come by to have an excuse to just random confirm Ridley in a PotD.

"In commemoration of the Western fanbase's dedication and truly overwhelming support, I am happy to announce their most wanted newcomer Ridley Scott finally joins the battle due to the addition of Mii Fighters!"

We could always speculate on alternative costumes, moves, and his Amiibo

I don't hate 2. I feel like it was the weakest game in the trilogy, but I still think all three are really good. I don't like the ammo management but it's not like that broke the game for me.

Also Ridley 2048. The cycle is complete.

oh yeah, I forgot. A few years back one of my friends edited my facebook language to Pirate English. I never changed it back.
xD that's awesome! I wish there was a Pirate Spanish...but Ridley would kill me...xD

Speculation God, GOML
I am not entirely sure; most detractors are not objectively detractors. They are not even absolutely certain that he is going to be a boss. They always equivocate their language. In that event that Ridley is confirmed, there will be a degree of humility, but most would probably just avoid their error. That happens with every "I was wrong thread," for instance the Ike thread. There is NO way that is an accurate showing (albeit this is based on my empirical knowledge).
