If Ridley is in it better not be straw neck Ridley.

You want Roidley?

 

[Jawmuncher]

The ridley roller coaster of emotions never ends, does it.

At least its going somewhere.snakes roller coaster is just going straight down to hell.

 

[georly]

Can someone make a roster mockup with this as Final Final CSS?

I wanna see how you guys make the roster line up

 

[Watch Da Birdie]

So I see people on Twitter thinking this a Brawl mod....

Spoiler

wat

Someone thought Bowser Jr. was a Diddy Kong texture swap...

 

[PhoenixDawn]

I don't know, I feel like the 'leakers' who are saying Ridley are mostly doing it to just troll with people. It seems like he's thrown in a ton of these leaks along with other characters that happen to be true to give people false hope. The leakers are already of a lower moral standard just due to the fact that they had to break an NDA/trust agreement with their employer to give out the information, so it wouldn't be surprising for them to lie and joke around with Ridley just for the reactions. That said, I'd be happy if he was actually playable :lol.

 

[emb]

I was not given one by him.

Hence the 'when he comes back.'

 

[BGBW]

I don't understand why people assume snake is the reason for Brawls T rating. There's no concrete evidence just theories.

Especially when Melee was rated T.

In the UK Melee was released before PEGI and got a 11+ from ELSPA. When the Player's Choice version came out PEGI has started rating games so it was re-reated and got a 3+.

Brawl received a 12+ from PEGI. Brawl has a violence icon whereas Melee didn't so for some reason they deemed it more violent.

 

[The Great Gonzales]

Disappointed if Dixie gets in over K. Rool because I love villains, but you can't argue with the Koopa Kids, Mewtwo and FUCKING RIDLEY!

I don't mean to burst your bubble, but Mewtwo and Ridley still haven't been confirmed. They've only been named in text posts, one of which the poster has admitted was a lie.

 

[MisterWisp]

i'm pretty content with the final roster. doc is back, hopefully with the mario tornado intact? yes please
(also hey i'm new)

Welcome!

Spoiler

You're also here forever.

 

[Vuapol]

I'm gonna miss Wolfy, but if this extended newcomer list is true I'll be so happy. Never knew I wanted Mach Rider until now, and two of my three most wanted characters remaining would be in. Ridley and Mewtwo would be so hype!

Spoiler

So sorry Paper Mario, it's just not your time...

 

[Neoxon]

I just want to repeat that this post from back in July does make me wonder whether Ridley might be *gasp* a playable newcomer:

Anything not quoted is just tacked on by someone else.

 

[Neo Child]

kay i havent played kid icarus uprising

but surely that guy that helps pit out (who looks like generic animu char) would be better than dark pit? isnt he literally just a recolor?

 

[Peléo]

Yes. It would be interesting if a statement is made about this from either party. I mean this is pretty big since Nintendo is infamous for being pretty watertight when it comes to leaks.

Yeah, I´m curious to see what will NOA say about it. Not a fan of this rating system, I think it would be better if it was up to the company wether they wish to submit their game to a rating agency, putting the suggest age by themselves or even releasing the game without this seal.

 

[Ceravic]

Welp, that's it for me for now I guess. SmashGAF, it's been an honor serving along side you guys, but my hype has been deflated to critical levels today. Hope everyone enjoys the game, and I mean that 100%. When I found out we got Lucas in Brawl I was beyond ecstatic and I hope this roster has triggered that feeling for everyone else because Smash truly is a wonderful series. Later dudes!

 

[PadWarrior]

I just want to repeat that this post from back in July does make me wonder whether Ridley might be *gasp* a playable newcomer:

What site was this from?

 

[Richie]

Real talk, be thinking of what the next thread title is gonna be, this won't last the day

 

[SkullHydra]

If Ridley does make it in, would you want him to be from a specific game or a Smash Bros. custom Ridley that uses elements from several games?

 

[The Bankslammer]

I just want to repeat that this post from back in July does make me wonder whether Ridley might be *gasp* a playable newcomer:

I'm pretty sure this is second-hand information compiled from a number of leaks, most notably the Smashboards one that mentioned the characters we're seeing leaked (in quotes in the picture). Anything else is unreliable.

 

[SmithnCo]

Someone thought Bowser Jr. was a Diddy Kong texture swap...

Okay wut

 

[Distresssss]

So no Isaac is basically confirmed.



Today is a sad day.

 

[RomanceDawn]

Is this the original leak, from back in July?

Gadzooks I remember this well. And so far it seems to be all coming true...

I'm getting all tingly inside! I need to stop.

 

[MisterWisp]

Excite Biker alt for Mach Rider.
please.

 

[Jawmuncher]

You want Roidley?

Yes. That neck just bothers me too much in 3D.

 

[MrSaturn99]

Don't give up hope!!!!

 

[Neo Child]

doesnt make sense.

this also makes me want more golden sun

 

[Neiteio]

That's quite possible.

That being said, everyone, check your expectations.

 

[JoeInky]

I don't mean to burst your bubble, but Mewtwo and Ridley still haven't been confirmed. They've only been named in text posts, one of which the poster has admitted was a lie.

I know it's a big if, but I still believe in Ridley.

I want to watch the internet tear itself apart during his glorious arrival.

 

[Starphoenix]

Can we please stop perpetuating the Mewtwo/Mach Rider/Impa/Ridley/Dixie thing already? He wasn't saying they were playable, he's saying the original leak that had those characters pegged as playable was false (from what I'm getting).

 

[SmithnCo]

kay i havent played kid icarus uprising

Dark Pit is a unique character.

 

[SuperSah]

I'm out for a bit.


Today was amazing. I eat crow with pride.

 

[chaosblade]

Is this the original leak, from back in July?

I'd like to believe, but IIRC Dixie, Ridley, Chorus Men, and Mewtwo were from a sketchier source. We've seen all the ones listed in the quote confirmed (Shulk, Bowser Jr, Dark Pit, Dr Mario, DHD).

Can we please stop perpetuating the Mewtwo/Mach Rider/Impa/Ridley/Dixie thing already? He wasn't saying they were playable, he's saying the original leak that had those characters pegged as playable was false (from what I'm getting).

Wasn't the DLC leak the once with Ice Climbers, Lucas, Snake, Wolf, and Chorus Kids?

 

[Hatchtag]

Someone thought Bowser Jr. was a Diddy Kong texture swap...

Chuggaaconroy. I checked his twitter cause I know he wants Shulk in incredibly badly, but he thinks it could be a hoax. For this to be a hoax would take an incredible amount of effort, more so than any other leak I have ever seen before.

 

[Crocodile]

Disappointed if Dixie gets in over K. Rool because I love villains, but you can't argue with the Koopa Kids, Mewtwo and FUCKING RIDLEY!

I think this is the first time I've seen you happy in one of these threads for a long while now. I'm kind of glad to be honest

 

[Jawmuncher]

Yeah to me it just shows that rating systems can be flaky thing in terms of consistency and games that aren't automatically M rated.

 

[MagiusNecros]

What if Ridley is a stage hazard but is also playable too. >

 

[Forkball]

We're gonna have fun with this thing.

Not any more.

 

[Hypemaster]

Someone thought Bowser Jr. was a Diddy Kong texture swap...

lol probably because of the jet pack/koopa car explosion

 

[A Link to the Past]

The best thing ever is

I'm gonna take a nap

So I won't have to agonize about anything anymore!

 

[Watch Da Birdie]

Okay wut

I guess because both Up-B's have them eject into the air...but making a Diddy Brawl Mod that re-spawns the Koopa Klown Car is unlikely.

 

[Kouriozan]

Some guys wondered who would be the "crazy" character of Smash 4 after G&W and ROB.
Duck Hunt Dog fill that role perfectly.

 

[Neoxon]

I'd like to believe, but IIRC Dixie, Ridley, Chorus Men, and Mewtwo were from a sketchier source. We've seen all the ones listed in the quote confirmed (Shulk, Bowser Jr, Dark Pit, Dr Mario, DHD).

Yes, anything not in the quote shouldn't be taken as seriously as what's in the quote.

 

[FiddyShadeJ]

I've been here for like five minutes and I'm going mad. WHEN'S OUR NEXT INFO DUMP!? I need Duck Hunt Dog and Ridley in my veins!

 

[SpacePirate Ridley]

I just want to repeat that this post from back in July does make me wonder whether Ridley might be *gasp* a playable newcomer:

Now this sounds really good, except ice climbers being cut.

Ridley is there, chorus kids are there, all the info is right with the real leaks.
The only thing is no Mach Rider, but that was just a suprise I got with the recent (could be fake) cypher leaks so it wouldnt be as bad to loose him. Would be cool to have it but not crying over him.

This is the possibility I want to happen.

 

[Not75Drops]

Moved

 

[MisterWisp]

(Insert obligatory Alfonzo post here)

 

[PadWarrior]

[Toxi]

Yes. That neck just bothers me too much in 3D.

Meta Ridley fixes the neck problem.

 

[Neiteio]

I'm 50/50 on the possibility of Ridley. As others noted with regards to the screencap I posted, the quoted part may be right, but the addition of Ridley might be something the poster threw in based on other, sketchier "leaks."

 

[VegiHam]

As well as Mach Rider, it's missing Impa. But yeah, that's hardly important I suppose.

 

[Kouriozan]

Fun stuff :
I main Mewtwo in Melee -> Cut in Brawl
I main Lucas in Brawl -> Cut in 4

I wonder who I'll main this time
