Super Smash Bros. for 3DS & Wii U Thread 7: How Can My Smash Brother Be This Cut

Or Pyrosphere if Sakurai is watching Smashgaf
"If you look in the hole in the Pyrosphere's background very closely, you might see an old friend watching you battle. That's me, Sakurai! I observe my fans to make sure they appreciate my new Smash game!"
 
On a side-note, purple Ridley is the worst thing to be retained from the original Metroid. He wasn't purple in any other Metroid game until Other M, yet because of the Melee intro and Brawl, everyone remembers him as purple.
He's purple in Super Metroid--in the actual game, at least. He's just red in his official art for some reason.

That's grey. Am I just color-blind?

It's purple. It's just really muted, as opposed to the garish super-saturated purple from his other appearances.

Zero Mission and the Prime Ridleys are the best.

On the occasion that he's playable those alt colors are a must.

All take your word for it.

...He's grey in Zero Mission, right? He looks grey to me in that game.
 
It's getting difficult to put the renders in a nice and balanced group composition without mirroring any of the characters. I can see why we haven't gotten an updated wallpaper yet.
 
Olimar was included in Brawl as a playable character (which is basically as soon as he could have been). Olimar wasn't first added as a microscopic SSE plot element or whatever, and wasn't teased as a microscopic stage hazard before being revealed for Smash 4.

That problem isn't that it's impossible to resize Ridley, the problem is that Sakurai shows every indication of viewing him purely as a boss character. He basically has a boss fight with Samus in the Melee opening as well

Wolf had a "boss fight" with Fox in Melee's opening and appeared as simply a part of Fox's taunt. Sakurai has given every indication of viewing him purely as a talking stage hazard.

Little Mac was just an assist trophy. Sakurai has given every indication of viewing him purely as an assist trophy.
 
Fusion had a Purple and Blue Ridley.


Maybe there will be a seperate mode where bosses can battle it out or you can play as a boss.

That would get some good play from me.

the face humping request returns

It never left. It's always here ;)


It's exactly how I typed it

"If you look in the hole in the Pyrosphere's background very closely, you might see an old friend watching you battle. That's me, Sakurai! I observe my fans to make sure they appreciate my new Smash game!"

Speaking of which, every character should have a "Psuedo Direct" taunt like Sakurai's in the Smash Direct
 
I'm really hoping for a Miiverse stage with select posts from Sakurai displaying people salty over their favorite character being delegated to Assist Trophy
or boss
status.
 
The more I look at MP3's Meta Ridley the more I dislike it. Not as bad as Other M's (and Omega Ridley is okay), but still. Unfortunate that they went from MP1's Meta Ridley, which is possibly the best Ridley design ever.
 
That would be neat. A shame Fatal Frame is in kind of a weird place in terms of being a third party/second party title.

I thought it was first party now.

Also, yes I'd love that as an item, it could get stronger the closer the enemy is to you.
 
he needs more funds

And now you know why he's a bounty hunter.

you know what this game needs? Xenoblade music

This man speaks the truth.

I actually like it, but they definitely could have incorporated the Phazon elements better.
 
You know what stage from Xenoblad would be awesome that no one mentions?
Frontier Village. Multiple levels and little Nopons running in the background. A beautiful stage!
A Xenoblade stage without the Bionis or Mechonis in the background would be pointless. I hope that whatever stage Xenoblade gets is more like Isle Delfino, so that we can see a lot of different places without it being a dreadful scrolling stage.
 
I hope Other M 2 is a Ridley story. I want him speaking about his sadness at the loss of the Metroid Prime.
Nah it'll be a heartbreaking tale of him raising his chicks with his partner when Samus' parents start doing research on his children. By mistake the mother of his children thinks they are trying to harm them and attacks resulting in the children and partners death. A grieving Ridley is empowered by the space pirates and exacts his revenge.
