I think people have been gunning for Ridley for a while because:
People want more Metroid characters, and Ridley is one of the most famous, and probably one of the better choices
Ridley's pretty awesome
Wanting Ridley to be in the game has been going on for a long time, before the concept of "bosses" or even of Subspace in general
@Cap'n:
I just think it'd be weird for hi mto go to such lengths to say that Lucas is different from Ness, just to totally dump Ness off. But whatever. At least PK Thunder isn't gimped anymore.
I saw that as more of a "This isn't Ness with Blonde hair repackaged as a new character".
To kinda say that he's not just a skin change. but actually a new character with similar moves.
and I base this from hearing that Ness wasn't even supposed to be in Melee.
Yeah, it'd be a huge waste to use Ridley as a boss when:
As for Ness and Lucas, if Ness really is going to come back, he's basically going to need a completely different set of moves. Lucas basically "stole" his moveset and made it even better, so unless they just want Ness to come back as Sucky Lucas, they'll have to completely change him. In that case, it'd honestly be better to just get a totally new character like Flint.
Why not have Ridley as playable and Meta Ridley as a boss? That wouldn't be too bad.
Because it'd be dumb to have two Ridley's running around at the same time?
I think he meant in the form of Bowser and Giga Bowser from melee. That wasn't all that bad.
That's not how the Subspace Emissary is set up, though. Wario and Bowser were shown how they are as playable characters. It's not like we have Giga Bowser and Wario Man running around doing shit.
If Ridley is playable, he'll show up in Adventure Mode as plain ol' Ridley.
Am mostly just being nitpicky, though. Meta Ridley would make a good Final Smash, if anything.
@Cyringohn:

I meant more of a "Meta Ridley replaces Ridley" thing. Not have them both at the same time.

@Cyringohn:
- The "too big" argument was moronic, to begin with.
You have no idea how much I have argued against those "HE'S TOO BIG" idiots on other forums. BUT HIS WINGSPAN IS BIG AND BOWSER'S DIFFERENT DURRRR

Yeah, that shit is all over GameFAQ's. But everybody over there is dumb as hell, so.
And it's not like he can't FOLD HIS WINGS. And the fact that the shrunk him in the Melee intro movie is fucking proof enough that they'd have no problem with his size.
What would his attacks be?
I don't have any major doubt he can't be in it or anything, I just don't know what he does.
All Ridley ever really does is try to claw, bite, and tackle you. Think he breathed fire too.
He'd mostly just be a simplistic brawler that slashes and headbutts and shit, but that's all you really need.

Ness and lucas can be like Falco and Fox…gets flamed
Why do I keep hearing at school that tommarrow will be a Character update?Did Sakura say tommarrow will be a Character update.?
Because it seems like the only time to reveal whether or not Ness will return and I think that a number of people believe that he will.
Normally I'd suspect it'd be a Subspace update, but we got one earlier in the week. My guess is it'll be a veteran player returning, or maybe a final smash (but I doubt it).
Or, it could be a new stage. That's probably one of the most likely outcomes, actually.
It's disheartening to wake up every morning, hoping to see K. Rool, but then only find disappointment. It makes the ride to class all the more torturous.
Speaking of which, maybe we'll get a new DK stage. Or that Mario Kart stage we still ain't heard 'bout.

K.Rool vs King Dede would make SSBB sales go way high.
I want tommarrow to be a Character update…we need new characters.
Assuming K. Rool's playable, for some reason I'd expect him to be one of the last characters revealed. I'm not even sure why.
Definitely Captain Falcon tomorrow. Definitely. I'll place…well I got nothing to bet, but definitely Captain Falcon. It's been over two weeks since a character update, nearly two months since we got a veteran character update, and Captain Falcon is obviously the most logical choice for the next vet.
If not that then the looooooong overdue Mario Circuit. But it will be Captain Falcon, I swear.
If it's a "How to Play" update I'm throwing my keyboard out the window.

How to play are stupid updates that makes me want to hate SSBB.
The set up for today implies if tomorrow is a vet, the most likely is ness. (check 4 pages ago before getting anal and/or complain about this)
Taking smash as a whole, Jiggs is the easiest unlockable, so she should come first.
Taking smash as nintendo relevant, next in line is Luigi
Captn Falcon, untill yesterday I said that he was the next one, but it has been 2 months since the Ice Climbers, and factors don't align themself for him to show up now (murphy will bite my ass, most likely)
For stage, if 1 per franchise untill we got everything is a valid theory, then next stage should be Metroid, Fzero, Game & Watch or Sonic, or another franchise we got
Smash: Battlefield Mario: Delfino Island Zelda: Bridge
DK: Jungle Falls Kirby: Halbred Star Fox: Lyat Cruise
Pokemon: Stadium 2 Yoshi: Yoshi's Island Mother: New Pork City
Fire Emblem: Castle Siege Ice Climbers: the Sumit Animal Crossing: Smashvile
Kid Icarus: Skyworld Wario Ware: Wario ware.. Metal gear: Shadow Moses Island
DS: Pictochat
Norfair is the next stage in line, even if Mario Circuit has been anounced since last year, the lack of update is the only thing that keeps my theory of stages alive
My prediction is Ike's final smash. Got peach's a couple of weeks ago, meta last week, Ike seems like he got it going for him. But sakurai loves to toss our theorys on their ears.
Ah didn't see but you did metion a sonic stage.
I just have the strangest feeling we are going to have a Animal Crossing playable character…especially since we see in one of the assist trophies the digger from animal crossing has a new symbol above his name which other new assist trophies from diffrent games have the circle smash bros symbol....sigh
That's not such a strange feeling. This has been the thought for a long time, it's just whether or not it ends up being generic Animal Crosser.
Though, it is possible that there won't be a representative with the advent of the DS logo. (However, I think that there will somehow be a rep for DS.)
Thank God…for a second I was feeling a little Homosexual...I have nothing against Homosexuals...but...shuts up
I think the demo confirmed that that symbol also appears beside the stage name when you're selecting a stage, so a unique symbol =/= necessarily having a character from that franchise.
Unless I'm missing something, that doesn't really prove anything, since Melee had that too.
But we've never really had a non-generic stage that didn't serve as a "home" for a playable character, so who knows.
Here's a link (sorry it's Wikipedia) that explains who Starfy is:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Densetsu_no_Stafy
He's a character that I actually want in the game. Glares at Carter I would prefer Starfy over Krystal any day. :)
Most Americans would have absolutely no idea who Starfy is, so.
Sakurai said he's trying to avoid adding characters that are limited to certain regions.
That's too bad. I wonder if there's any Europe-exclusive characters? We don't hear much about Nintendo in Europe.
Europe exclusive character costs $25 to unlock*
*free in other countries
Is there any characters you guys would hate to see added? Besides Balloon Fighter and Krystal (hyuk, hyuk!).
Third party characters not named Bomberman and, because it seems somewhat inevitable, Megaman. The rest…meh.
Boo to not revealing Ness! It's Norfair tonight.
So, it's Norfair. It actually looks like a pretty awesome stage.
I love the safety pod in particular.
Ah so it's possible to jump over the wave. Thought the pod was the only safe spot. And just think of the blind beatings when two people make it into the pod. Or even all four.
My goal is to get ether DK or pika in there with a final smash ready with three other people.
Is there any characters you guys would hate to see added? Besides Balloon Fighter and Krystal (hyuk, hyuk!).
-The return of Dr. Mario, Falco, Pichu, and Young Link
-Paper Mario
-Bowser Jr.
-Any other Pokemon
Everything else I can take in stride, or at least all I can think of.
Wait a minute
Norfair is the location in Metroid where the enemy boss Ridley was
Norfair is the location in Metroid where the enemy boss Ridley was enemy boss Ridley was _**Ridley was

Oh wow, ha ha ha. Nice gamefaqs impression there, Carter.
It must be nice to be Masahiro Sakurai, knowing that you have godlike power over 88% of the gaming community.

Dunno what you mean by 'Out', I think this has upped Ridley's chances.

Paper Mario,Mr.Game and Watch,Captain Olimar,Animal Crossing character that is not Tom Nook,Paula(Earthbound),Young Link/WW Link,Pichu,and Purin(Jigglepuff),Other Pokemons(I only like the cool ones),Baby Mario and Baby Luigi
Wow…what a great update....feels like day is ruined
Called it…
16 Murphys...
Norfair looks extremely fun. Really liking the giant lava wave.
And this does nothing to confirm or disprove Ridley.
Checking the calendar again:
I got some extra patience this week, but it was ruined for the "no character in 2 weeks" thing, I get that it is hard to extend the 3 update weeks that we originaly had left for the relase up to 13, but the character drought is a very anoying thing to do, if we are done with the starters start with the unlockables the 3rd please.
So, today's update is basically Norfair from the N64 Smash. Lame

wut you talking about
the n64 one was almost identical to Melee's version
I alctually for the most part, missed out on Melee last gen (didn't wanna buy a GC). Stil, expecting something alittle better for a Friday update.

points to Lucas and the Devil

It's not really anything like the old one, aside from having a rising hazard.
This new one has a giant wave of lava, and safety zone to hide in, etc.

There's no way to stick up for this one…It's still basically the same map from past games exept this time the lava is orange!...I still find it cool that you can Hide now which is a good thing but it's basically the same level just with a diffrent color..
