...ok I laughed at the patrick part xD
Eh, a large portion of the fanbase doesn't give a shit what we get. Hell, many of the fans are tripping off of veterans coming back. "Where's Ike?" "Where's Mewtwo?". They're in fucking Melee and Brawl. That's where they are.
Rockmans in it too? Man, Capcom is completely on Nintendos side now, huh?
These people.
I like these people.

So has Nintendo said anything when it comes to E3, isn't it just around the corner?
I will be forever grateful if Sakurai decided to not have Mewtwo included in the game.whens mewtwo

That's so not tits, man. My tits just receded into my chest and popped out my back. That's how non-tits that is.You heard me![]()
Time and time again, yet again, Nintendo yet again time and time again fucks up again!
3DS version NOT optimized for tourney players. Why? Different controllers - yeah, someone playing on 3DS XL not only has a more comfy controller on hands, but also a larger screen - making it easier to see and defeat your opponent. 2DS should be banned because it makes the player look too cool and is therefore distracting.
How will Nintendo fix this? Well, they can't. They're doomed.
However, not including Ice Climbers up to this point is probably most likely literally the smartest move they've ever made, aside from releasing the e-Reader and Game Boy Micro.

Yep, should definitely be Mega Mewtwo Y, for all the reasons you mentioned.Anyways, what version of Mega Mewtwo would be in if Mewtwo is in? I'm going to say Y, because it was the first revealed, seems to be more popular, and we have Charizard X for X version
As someone who is firmly in the middle, I can say you haven't been listening to the other side if that's how you characterize them.
Here are the facts:
- A shadow that resembles Ridley was shown during the stage hazards segment
- The shadow resembles Other M Ridley
- There are multiple Ridleys in Metroid canon, varying wildly in appearance (see Other M Ridley)
- With past characters -- Waluigi, Ashley, etc -- Sakurai explicitly established what they were and how they're not playable
Those are the facts. And they don't logically preclude either outcome.
More like, both sides use logic, but one side discredits the other side saying they're delusionals and refusing to acknowledge any prospected possibility.
LOL. I have nothing to share since both of sides already posted what I would feel about Ridley and the fact that I'm truly tired of Ridley topic and I wish Sakurai would tell us right now so it can be over and deal with it.
People aren't being "over-emotional" by pointing out how the manner in which Ridley was shown leaves plenty of room for a number of possibilities to play out.
Jesus you people. It's just a purple dragon.
I understand the reasoning, but I guarantee even if Sakurai flat out stated Ridley will be a stage boss, there will still be people digging further and further to try and justify him still somehow being playable. It's delusional mental gymnastics. Maybe I'm being overly critical but damn if people don't set themselves up for disappointment willingly. It isn't hype at this point, it's almost obsession.
Most of us have said we don't necessarily think he will be playable, just that it is possible. My rage came from people spouting the same shit over and over acting like it has been 100% confirmed that he won't be playable.
Do I want Ridley playable? Yes. Do I expect Ridley to be playable? No. Will I care if Ridley is not playable? No.
I have determined that Ridley will appear in no less than 5 different forms. We'll have stage hazard ridley, stage ridley, playable ridley, assist trophy ridley, and boss ridley (who is different than stage hazard ridley because you can fight this one)
ultimate Sakurai troll 3 ridley's in the game, one is stage hazard, second is boss, 3rd is assist trophy
They have similar names, so I always assumed they were siblings. It seems unlikely for them to have such similar names and be married.
Basically what I'm getting from this is that the Japanese smash bros community isn't really that different from ours except that they don't give a shit about RIdley

I'm still a huge fan of your work with Wright in UMvC3, Lythero, but still.
That's so not tits, man. My tits just receded into my chest and popped out my back. That's how non-tits that is.
I think Mewtwo Y is a better fit for the character. More focused on special attacks, like the normal version always was. X is interesting though, and could be appropriate in Smash Bros. too.That suggests that the tits are still there, just......
protruding from your back
WTF
Can we stop. Anyways, what version of Mega Mewtwo would be in if Mewtwo is in? I'm going to say Y, because it was the first revealed, seems to be more popular, and we have Charizard X for X version
You linked to Xerneas, which does nothing to support your case.Except that isn't true, in the slightest. I'm sure I could dig up other examples, but I'm a tad pressed for time.
Except they really don't. Or can you point to anything where Sakurai EXPLICITLY hints that Ridley is not just a stage hazard without having to guess at Sakurai's motivations (Which can easily be seen as just trying to generate excitement)You linked to Xerneas, which does nothing to support your case.
The facts support both possibilities.
You don't see how you're making an assumption yourself, when Sakurai didn't explicitly confirm Ridley for a boss, either, let alone one of the specific Ridley characters, and in a game where repeat characters can swap out Alfonso-style? A game where Sakurai has made explicit distinctions when a character is not playable (I.E. Waluigi, Ashley, etc)? A game that recently received a Direct full of fake-outs (ZSS, Pseudo-Palutena, etc)?Except they really don't.

See but here's something else to consider: When has Sakurai ever done a fakeout without immediately revealing it's a troll right afterwards. All those examples you mentioned are things that got cleared up immediately, not left hanging for monthsYou don't see how you're making an assumption yourself, when Sakurai didn't explicitly confirm Ridley for a boss, either, let alone one of the specific Ridley characters, and in a game where repeat characters can swap out Alfonso-style?

If I had to bet, I'd say he's not playable. But I'm capable of seeing how it's certainly within the realm of possibility he could still be playable.
And yet Sakurai didn't actually show Ridley.See but here's something else to consider: When has Sakurai ever done a fakeout without immediately revealing it's a troll right afterwards. All those examples you mentioned are things that got cleared up immediately, not left hanging for months
You wouldn't even need to swap them out. Other M Ridley not only looks different, he's a different specimen altogether.And swapping out Alfonso for conductor link who is more a background detail than anything is hardly comparable to switching out a stage hazard that plays an active role in the fight
It's a pretty popular, often-circulated theory that since Pyrosphere is an Other M stage, Other M Ridley is the stage hazard while OG Ridley is playable.
Not happening until SSB5
Other M Ridley looks different but not enough. And his actions in Other M strongly imply that despite being a clone he's still the same Ridley inside.And yet Sakurai didn't actually show Ridley.

Nah, he just knows how to press the community's buttons.I think the reason Sakurai hasn't confirmed Ridley as a stage hazard yet is because he's afraid of all the hate mail/tweets he'll receive.
Sakurai really needs to make a definitive statement. Things are getting ridleydiculous.

Doing stuff like that is a pretty old trick for games like this that's pretty much always just meant to be a hype generator. Why would this be any different
And why on god's earth does anyone think Ridley is important enough that Sakurai would feel compelled to put two versions of him in the game? At least with Toon Link he represents another important branch of the Zelda series (and even then he still feels unnecessary).
Christ, you people care way too much about proving a character can't be in.

Hype for the most requested character!Doing stuff like that is a pretty old trick for games like this that's pretty much always just meant to be a hype generator. Why would this be any different
You mean like Brawl?And why on god's earth does anyone think Ridley is important enough that Sakurai would feel compelled to put two versions of him in the game?
Well brawl did have Regular and Meta ridley, melee's pikachu and pichu(lol)...Mario, Doctor mario.
I'd vote for Andre.
When did Brawl have two versions of Ridley? Was one just a pallete swap alternate version of the same boss fight? Because that's not really the same as having two dramatically and incredibly noticably different versions of Ridley that fulfill entirely different roles.
They were two completely different boss fights. You did play Brawl, right?When did Brawl have two versions of Ridley? Was one just a pallete swap alternate version of the same boss fight?

It's been a while to be honest and I don't remember all the boss fightsThey were two completely different boss fights. You did play Brawl, right?
Xerneas was never asked by anyone anywhere to be a character in the game. He doesn't have anywhere near the level of expectation of the ATs, let alone Ridley. And the ATs were explicitly ruled out as playable upon being posted. 100% clear. Which is why, again, the ambiguity with Ridley raises the question of various possibilities.Xerneas was shown in PotD in October, and the only thing posted about it is that "we have nothing to announce about Pokemon X and Y. Honest!"
That's CRYSTAL CLEAR. Except that it's not, and invalidates the "Waluigi/Ashley" commentary completely. He's never 100% clear all the time unless purposefully teasing a character inclusion as you've suggested. You're misrepresenting something as a fact.
I think if Sakurai wants to put in the effort to make Ridley playable, he will make him playable, and there's nothing to preclude that at this point. All up in the air. The safe bet is the boss route, but then again Sakurai likes to zig when we think he'll zag.More devil's advocacy then. Does anyone who argues for the Ridley playable character possibility ACTUALLY think he'll be in, or just like to discuss it just for discussion's sake?
Purple Ridley fights like Master Hand, grey Ridley shoots fireballs and tries to destroy your spaceship.It's been a while to be honest and I don't remember all the boss fights
That is true.To be fair, SSE was horrible.
