I highly doubt they'd waste a slot on Ridley. Metroid isn't really that
popular in Japan, and Ridley isn't all that exciting otherwise. --- Take a hike, and don't forget the trail mix *****. Hijack - MC Chris Detective in Sir Chris' Police |

I don't know how they'd work an enormous dragon with wings into the game anyway. --- SC2K6 Nominations: Squall, Roxas, Serge, Seifer, Laguna, The Prince of Persia, Nightmare, Sub-Zero, Captain Falcon, Raiden |

I always thought of Ridley as more of a boss type character. --- "Princess, there's no need for worry. Who do you think I am? I'm the hero of the story. And the hero never dies." |

I just got to thinking, since it was mentioned afew days ago that the
SSB games is practically a collection of the biggest characters from
the games we grew up with and/or play today (paraphrased, anyway)...how
SFF'able would you think SSB is? I mean, I know LoZ and Mario could
beat it, and I know it can beat any other Nintendo series...but do you
think it would under-perform against any of them, or perhaps
over-perform? --- Miss my Four-Pack Of Fun? Go here: http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/gentopic.php?board=585007 |

If they put Bowser Jr. in there, they better make him worth playing as
-- otherwise, once I get the trophies that need him (assuming the
trophy idea carries on), I won't touch him again. If he's good and
enjoyable though...I can't hate on him for that. --- Miss my Four-Pack Of Fun? Go here: http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/gentopic.php?board=585007 |

A World Cup poll, eh? You know what that means...A bracket with the World Cup format! Or not. I'm just making a false correlation. --- SC2K6 Nominations: Squall, Roxas, Serge, Seifer, Laguna, The Prince of Persia, Nightmare, Sub-Zero, Captain Falcon, Raiden |

World Cup poll, oh my!

I highly doubt they'd waste a slot on Ridley. I'd insta-buy a Wii if Ridley was in SSBB. But then I am a huge Ridley mark. --- Jon Thomson - CATS, Jay Solano, Ridley, Scorpion, Alien Hominid, Duke Nukem, The Prince, Johnny Rocketfingers, two TBA |

Best. Poll. Ever. Seriously, I wouldn't want to see Ridley as a playable character. I'm a Ridley mark myself, but his abilities are way too powerful and broken to adapt him to SSB. --- i beaten a lot of people in school in a battle. some are noobs like you some are pretty good. i have a perfect record of not loosing. -pika4 |

The only way Ridley would work is as a final boss, like Master Hand. --- Explicit Content Cheer Up Emo Kids |

I think it'd be hilarious if, at the end of SSBB's single-player mode,
Master Hand pops out, does his MUAHAHAHAHA laugh - and then prompty
gets set on fire and thrown out of the arena by Ridley. At least I'd find it funny if I remotely liked Ridley. But you know what I mean! --- This was Ed Bellis. Summer 2005 Fanfiction Project: http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=8&topic=28403845 |

In all seriousness though, I think we can all agree that the only
Metroid character besides Samus that would work in SSBB is Mother
Brain. She can have a transformation, just like Zelda, where she gains
the ability to move! --- This was Ed Bellis. Summer 2005 Fanfiction Project: http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=8&topic=28403845 |

If they had Roy in SSBM to plug FE6, maybe they'll have Rundus to plug MP3? I dunno. --- i beaten a lot of people in school in a battle. some are noobs like you some are pretty good. i have a perfect record of not loosing. -pika4 |

Just quickly looking over it and picking matches, that bracket really
didn't seem all that hard to predict. I suppose it's just because it
was based entirely off of nominations though. --- "Princess, there's no need for worry. Who do you think I am? I'm the hero of the story. And the hero never dies." |
