I see what they did with Pit

his wings always stay white or just slightly tinted.

Dark Pit's alts will all have black wings or slightly tinted

Clever actually. Pit can have dark alts this way without it being confusing.


Edit; OMG THAT LAST GRENINJA COLOR

Once again, I'm peeved Sonic has only shades of blue for team colors. Blah. It really makes it hard to tell what team he's on if there's more than one Sonic on-screen. -_-

Same thing for Pac-Man. I guess these issues get alleviated with the borders if you choose to turn them on but still, it's just... how can they think it's good enough to have different colored wristbands??? :/

Also, yes, DK's new colors are extremely disappointing. Also, is it just me or did his Green color get worse? :(

Bio
Ridley is a high-ranking Space Pirate, the archenemy of Samus Aran, and one of the most common recurring characters in the Metroid series, appearing in almost every Metroid game. Ridley’s appearance is considered similar to a skeletal dragon with glowing eyes. Ridley is known for being very defiant and persistent; though Samus has defeated him many times, he always manages to return and do battle with her, either through his healing abilities or robotic enhancements. As such, Ridley is fittingly referred to as the Cunning God of Death in his Zero Mission official art. Ridley is considered the main antagonist of the series, despite not typically acting as such in any individual games.

Despite his fearsome and bestial appearance, Ridley is known to be highly intelligent and is shown to even be capable of speaking in the manga; with his intelligence, he was also evidently capable of building a synthetic construct made in his own image. He is known to have a bloodthirsty personality and takes great personal enjoyment in destruction.

What NeoGAF Says
“Samus's nemesis, "The Cunning God of Death," enters the battle. The evil space dragon remains an important part of the Metroid series despite the franchise's lack of presence.” - SenorArdilla

“Giant space dragon” - InvincibleAgent

“Mostly to watch the fallout; but also because Ridley is such an iconic boss from an underrepresented series.” - Griss

“His visage is terrifying, and his appearances in Metroid cement that fear in our hearts. No other recurring villain or character brings this level of ferocity and malevalence to Super Smash Brothers for the Nintendo Wii U.” - emb

“Because he'll be a unique fighter in a roster heavy with humanoids.” - Tazz

“Not only does Ridley deserve to be in after multiple series installments going by without adding a legitimately new character from the Metroid series, one of Nintendo's most iconic and long - respected franchises, but his role as a primal and utterly vicious villainous character would add great dimension to the roster, as thus far only Ganondorf comes remotely close to this, and far less so as his human form. Ridley also has a plethora of both appearances and moves to draw from, and has had a steadily growing presence in the smash series from the beginning.” - Praesidium

“Ridley is a key character in one of Nintendo's longest running franchises, and an awesome character at that. I mean, he's a freaking Space Dragon, how do you argue with that?” - chaosblade

“He's a classic villian!” - Clov

“Purple is my favorite color.” - DICKS AHOY

That's still a link to scans even if its on Imgur I wouldn't post it.

Well at least all of that talk wasn't for nothing.
Still indifferent about his inclusion. Mainly because of that damn straw neck.
 
Mannn Sonic's alternate costumes are terrible, and Pac Man's are almost as bad... is it that hard for them to discuss alternate costumes with the 3rd party owners?

Also I would totally buy character color packs. Just sayin'.
