miku should be in smash.

 

[exfatal]

He summons a fake credits sequence

also i can't tell if that's a kitchen or a bedroom in that video and that aspect creeps me out for some reason

lol why not both!?

okay, that actually would probably be the best final smash in the series.

 

[OricWindstar]

Alrighty, this is the last POTD before the masses get Smash worldwide. Bring it on, Sakurai.

 

[Anth0ny]

Gotta save some characters for Smash 5, dudes.

Ridley and K Rool will be there when that debut trailer rolls for the first time at E3 2019. Book it!

 

[Wreck-It Ralph]

Last Miku related gif for the day since I'm starting to annoy everyone with them.

Starting?

Was there a time when the Miku bullshit didn't annoy everyone?

 

[DICKS AHOY]

You once said that anyone who makes fun of K.Rool is the equivalent of a high school bully making fun of overweight kids.

I don't know that you can throw stones here.

K. Rool is an overweight kid and some posters here are potentially still in high school so it's not that bad a comparison.

 

[Gleethor]

Gonzo...did you make that video?

Edit: I hate when people say SAH-MISS

 

[exfatal]

i always found it cute

Half the newcomers this time around were non existent or irrelevant when Brawl released, I'm sure there'll be plenty of new faces to pick from to not have to add trash like K Rool next time.

Not me. Though I generally keep Vocaloid related things to where they're relevant to the discussion.

meanwhile, in Australia.....

 

[DICKS AHOY]

meanwhile, in Australia.....

 

[Watch Da Birdie]

I wonder if Nintendo would ever listen to the "we want Ridley!" yells and purposefully redesign Ridley for the Metroid-in-progress to have a more suitable design?

 

[Hatchtag]

I wonder if Nintendo would ever listen to the "we want Ridley!" yells and purposefully redesign Ridley for the Metroid-in-progress to have a more suitable design?

that'd be cheating. i want Sakurai to have to deal with ridley's design as it is and somehow turn it into a fun character.
That being said, Other M Ridley is arguably better proportioned for Smash than past Ridleys are.

 

[OricWindstar]

meanwhile, in Australia.....

I'm an entitled American, so I only care about when it releases in time zones in my country.

Spoiler

Kidding! Love ya, Australia.

 

[Caladrius]

I wonder if Nintendo would ever listen to the "we want Ridley!" yells and purposefully redesign Ridley for the Metroid-in-progress to have a more suitable design?

*We turned to famed Smash Bros. Director Msahiro Sakurai for this incredible new spider-Ridley design"!

 

[exfatal]

I wonder if Nintendo would ever listen to the "we want Ridley!" yells and purposefully redesign Ridley for the Metroid-in-progress to have a more suitable design?

nope more likely they reboot metroid and scrap Ridely completly

Spoiler

Like K.K Rool

 

[Watch Da Birdie]

No lie, I'd love a playable Ridley in a Metroid.

 

[Muzy72]

I hope Smash 5 has 4 DK reps. Dixie Kong and

Spoiler

Cranky Kong.

Ridley getting Ganon-ized. He's no longer a skinny dragon, but now he has a human-like body. How about that?

 

[Zubz]

He summons a fake credits sequence

Hey,

Spoiler

that's something Hades can do for his moveset, too!

 

[Hatchtag]

Hey,

Spoiler

Hades desperately needs to be in Smash.
Easily my favorite Nintendo character of the past decade.

 

[Teriaaaaa!]

Hey,

Spoiler

I would love to see Hades in Smash Bros. He is easily the best Nintendo bad guy, and I would take him over Ridley of K. Rool any day.

Spoiler

Plus Kid Icarus is under represented in Smash 4

 

[SirPainsalot]

Agreed. Dude was an amazing character.

 

[Scott667]

meanwhile, in Australia.....

Wait, which Austrlian stores are selling it? I just walked by an EBGames but they still had the "October 4" sign out.

 

[J@hranimo]

Hades is truly the best. Also he's a troll!

 

[oreomunsta]

Hades is truly the best. Also he's a troll!

But Sakurai is the best, and a troll...

... Does this make Hades Sakurai? 0o

 

[J@hranimo]

But Sakurai is the best, and a troll...

Well Sakurai made Smash Bros

and Hades made Kid Icarus Uprising if you get what I'm sayin

So maaaaaaaaaaybe.

 

[Benzychenz]

He means we get left out of the party when it releases everywhere else tomorrow.

 

[Dagobert Duck]

But I got it yesterday...

 

[oreomunsta]

So maaaaybe... Palutena's Sakurai?

 

[Regulus Tera]

How do you make an 11 minute video out of King K. Rool. I like the character but still. Jeez that was cringeworthy.

Do I need to post this again to remind everyone the true meaning of cringe-worthiness?

 

[Hatchtag]

jesus christ
who the fuck considers K Rool bigger than Ridley?

 

[BKSmash]

Pic of the day. This assist trophy is Sheriff. Sheriff was an arcade game released in 1979. In this game, the players aim by choosing one of eight directions to shoot using a second joystick separate from the one that controls movement. It was quite a revolutionary game for its time. For shooting games overseas, it's common to see games that utilize the left stick to move around and the right to determine the direction to shoot, so we can say the origin of modern shooting games was this game--which is pretty remarkable.

 

[tonyh24613]

Sheriff today.

 

[Mariolee]

Was he in the 3DS version?

Wow 2 Wii U PotDs in a row! And no menus!

Great update! Gotta learn something new.

 

[J@hranimo]

Yup.

 

[Teriaaaaa!]

Ehhhhh, I'll never get the obsession that some people have with K. Rool. At least Ridley is a space dragon so I get him, but K. Rool? Ehhhhhhhhhh. His design and what i've seen of him in games is pretty bland.

I suppose it's one of those "you had to be there at the time" things.

 

[tonyh24613]

Was he in the 3DS version?

Yes.

 

[SmithnCo]

I pray to K Rool every night

Truly one of gaming's greatest icons next to Glover

 

[J@hranimo]

Wait a minute.

when was the last time we had a PotD on Pyrosphere?

There is a small but vocal (even militant) Rare cult on the internet.

K. Rool is a rallying point for them.

Oh hey, older than Pac-Man.

 

[tonyh24613]

June.

[Watch Da Birdie]

Oh man, I saw the top of this POTD and freaked for a sec when it was Pyrosphere...

 

[Hatchtag]

Sakurai continuing to drag out the Ridley debates.
jesus BKupa's video is terrible.

 

[BGBW]

GameBoy Camera was my first introduction to Sheriff. Wario Ware would be the first time I'd play it.

Also I like that many who included Sheriff on their prediction images used a white sprite, but I correctly used a yellow one.
