Ridley is too big to be a stage.

For all we know, Ridley could be a size of a planet.

 

[Loco4Coco]

Touché.

 

[Timeaisis]

Maybe Ridley can be the stage select screen.

At this point, I think his character model is too big to fit on a Wii U Optical Disc. He'll be a shadow only, as seen on the last Nintendo direct.

 

[Scooter155]

Is he the planet crashing into the sun in the background of Final Destination??

 

[BGBW]

Ridley is too big to be a stage.

So he won't even return as a trophy. How sad.

 

[Omzz]

All this talk about Ridley being big reminded me of this song. Should be Ridley's new theme

 

[Kriken]

For all we know, Ridley could be a size of a planet.

That's no moon... that's a space pirate

Spoiler

Pls someone photoshop Ridley over the Death Star

 

[Lunar15]

Okay, so the recent Nintendo Direct revved up my fanboy engine. Like with Ganondorf and Andy before, here's a proposal for Isaac!

*Big Post of Awesome that's Too Long to Post*

This is fantastic! I think a lot of people said that they didn't want another Sword-Centric character, but focusing on his Djinn for specials is a great way to get around that. I especially love the summon concept based on how many djinn he has.

Man, this makes me want him even more. I do kind of want him to have a Ragnarok/Oddessey move, though.

I am praying to god for Ridley in Smash

 

[Loco4Coco]

[theprodigy]

Oh, he'll be in Smash all right!

Spoiler

as a stage hazard

 

[MisterLuffy]

Since the planet is not shaped as Ridley, no.

 

[Sciz]

Ridley can show up in Pokefloats 2 as part of a stealth announcement that Metroid has been assimilated into Pokemon in a desperate bid to make the series relevant to today's kids. Metroids are immediately unlocked as a new Flying/Dragon species in X&Y, while Samus takes over as the Snowbelle gym leader.

 

[Azure J]

So, of those that we have 0 rep whatsoever (franchise or otherwise) are:

Geno(4)
Takamaru(3)
Demiru(2)
Kawasima(2)
Ouendan(2)
Sukapon(2)

Geno's a Mario character so that's out. Also, Lip is from the Nintendo Puzzle League (specifically Panel De Pon known in the west as Tetris Attack) and that's been rep-less for a while. She was easily one of my top 5 most wanted characters from pre-Brawl to now just because of the potential puzzle game mechanics being interpreted in a platform fighter have in my mind. Let me borrow some animations from Smashboards for a bit now that the opportunity's come up.

It'd also be pretty awesome seeing Takamaru, Little Mac and Lip finally get theirs after being put through the Captain Rainbow Rehabilitation Camp™. That and it'd be pretty awesome to essentially play as a Trafalgar Law like character in Smash.

 

[Linkhero1]

I don't believe that rumor. Seems like it's just a guess imo because it's easy to rule out Squirtle, Ivysaur and Snake.

At first I was like "Flying/Dragon?"

Then I got it. Well played. :lol

Be careful what you wish for.

 

[Beelzebufo]

Apparently the guy had inside info before. And it wasn't easy to rule them out before we knew PT was cut.

 

[Red Arremer]

"Pic of the day. Ready now? Together with me!"

Pic of the day. Ready now? Together with me!

Thank you!

 

[Linkhero1]

Wait. Is this the same guy who guessed WFT and the Villager?

I am praying to god for Ridley in Smash

He is in Smash!

 

[BassForever]

No the 48 playable 4 cut person was someone who leaked mario kart wii or 7'a final roster iirc

Flying/Grass would fit the metroids better

 

[Neiteio]

Oh wow, I just noticed my thread title has been added. When did that happen?

Wait, I'm half asleep, what's going on now?

 

[munchie64]

Hey guys, Ridley might be playable.

Spoiler

By the 10th iteration of the franchise.

EDIT:

I suck at gifs yo.

Holy shit lol

 

[Linkhero1]

I see. Regardless, I'll take it with a grain of salt.

Probably in Smash Brothers 6 launching next year.

Out of curiosity have you seen the end of Oreimo?

 

[munchie64]

Probably in Smash Brothers 6 launching next year.

All DLC efforts will be postponed to work on just Ridley.

Spoiler

It still won't be enough.

I still don't know how to feel about how that happened.

 

[theprodigy]

So is this a Pokemon x Metroid idea discussion thread?

 

[Deleted member 231381]

Hells yes. The only real question is what catch rate the Morph Ball should have.

 

[(mat)]

Deal with it.

 

[SoldnerKei]

so it could be, Ike, Lucas, Squirtle and Ivysaur get cut? replace Lucas with Snake if you may, but I like Snake moar lol

 

[The Bankslammer]

i would fucking love playable lip

or anything panel de pon related from nintendo

 

[munchie64]

The way things are going this should come out before SMT x FE.

You'll get the stick and you'll like it.

 

[Karsticles]

Link to the "48 - 4" rumor source? Is this separate from the gematsu roster leaker?

 

[Loco4Coco]

Ridley gonna be the next pseudo legendary pokemon in gen 7.

 

[Revven]

So is this a Pokemon x Metroid idea discussion thread?

No, it's the "I'm Sakurai and know exactly how character cuts and the roster is planned." thread.

 

[Ezalc]

So, of those that we have 0 rep whatsoever (franchise or otherwise) are:

Geno(4)
Takamaru(3)
Demiru(2)
Kawasima(2)
Ouendan(2)
Sukapon(2)

Sukapon, Geno, and Takamaru would be amazing. I'd love to see Demiru as well, and Prince Richard who is missing from that list though I suppose he could be an alt for Toon Link.

 

[GregLombardi]

why is there a sliver of mario in this pic?

 

[Toxi]

So is this a Pokemon x Metroid idea discussion thread?

Metroid's addition would probably make the game less popular.

Wow.

Sukapon, Geno, and Takamaru would be amazing. I'd love to see Demiru as well, and Prince Richard who is missing from that list though I suppose he could be an alt for Toon Link.

LOL Geno

 

[zroid]

why is there a sliver of mario in this pic?

:lol :lol

it's Nintendo's youtube icon

 

[ArchedThunder]

Can someone post or link to the rumor saying there are 48 characters with 4 cuts?

 

[IntelliHeath]

I'm not aware of him leaking mario kart wii or mario kart 7 rosters. I know that he shared few informations for Mario Kart 8 which haven't proven yet and he leaked 48 characters with 4 cuts. Link me to his leaks for MKW/MK7.

Oh wow, I just noticed my thread title has been added. When did that happen?

I asked EmCee if I can change the title because Ivysaur don't make sense since he's not officially disconfirmed for the roster. He's more likely but not yet. I'm considered to use EmCee's Ivysaur subtitle in the future once he got disconfirmed by somehow before 3DS OT. EmCee said okay so I changed the title to popular demanded title.

 

[Beelzebufo]

Yeah, but it matches up assuming the Gamatsu is the final amount of newcomers (Mewtwo is a veteran).

Sorry that's what I read here iirc I have no idea where that originally came from just that it was the reason people were taking their 48 and 4 cuts comment seriously

 

[The Bankslammer]

never!

out of my top five nintendo series (eba/ouendan, sin and punishment, rhythm heaven, panel de pon, and nintendo wars), none of them have character representation in smash, and I WILL NOT STAND FOR THIS

actually i totally will stand for it but chorus kids would be appreciated nonetheless

 

[Ezalc]

I've been on the Golden Sun band wagon since Brawl, I can't think of many other franchises with 3+ games Nintendo has that don't have playable reps

Custom Robo has 4 games and has yet to have a playable rep. I would love to see both Isaac and Ray Mk II as playables and they were both ATs in Brawl. Smash needs more mecha characters and Ray would be great as a counter to Little Mac: Amazing in the Air, awful on the ground.

LOL Geno

Quiet you.
