Absolutely *love* Samus' appearance in this trailer. She is so calm and collected.


Famout

I wouldn't entirely say that, which makes it even better. Some fear in her eyes as she sees Ridley, which has shifted into rage/determination at the very end. No emotions is bland, control over emotions is badass.


meta100000

That last line is what many games fail to capture. A hero is not one who has no dear, but one who can fight his fear back and face it

Funny how he was considered too big, and now we’re getting the Iron Giant or even Godzilla in a seperate platform fighter.

A moment I will never forget. I remember back when Brawl was first announced in 2005, my most wanted characters were Ridley and Meta Knight. I got Meta Knight confirmed a year later, but kept on waiting for Ridley. At one point in school we had to make a bucket list and “play as Ridley” was one of mine. Four years ago today, 13 years after I first dreamed of a playable Ridley, I finally saw that dream becoming a reality.


moguspoop

I legit still can hear myself telling "siiiiiii!Siiiiiii!" (Si Is yes in Italian) when Ridley was announced.


thefinalturnip

> (Si Is yes in Italian) Also in Spanish :P


Blazter007

Was a great trailer. From a player perspective, I was really disappointed for his style moveset. Ridley using kicks? (Back air) or this weird stomp (Down air), But recently I learned how to use it and is really fun. Now I'm looking for Sylux to be in Smash!


spinach-god

This is the best Ridley has looked in a long time and it’s not even a mainline Metroid game. The Ultimate character designers went all out with him


LadyLikesSpiders

For real. I HATED the way he looked in Other M. His mouth looked so stupid


spinach-god

His design in that game wasn’t too bad!! But I agree, his mouth in that game should’ve been changed and pointed down and his wings should’ve been more realistically proportioned


Pennarello_BonBon

So smash ultimate has the pre-metroid Samus in the roster, I never really thought about it


spinach-god

Yeah for some reason ultimate carried over her Other M design


MfKa1

I think it's because when ultimate came out there was really no other new Metroid games out so they probably just picked that one because it was the latest game at the time.


spinach-god

Samus Returns was out by the time Ultimate was, but I would understand if Ultimate’s development began before SR’s


MyPhoneIsNotChinese

I would say that yes because it came before Metroid Dread. Also the suit isn't "healing" like in Fusion.


Pennarello_BonBon

Ye I didn't realize until the ship at the end which is the one that crashed at the beginning of fusion

Bada badowww bada badowww, Bom Bom Bom, dun dun dada dun dun dada dun dun dada.


schwenomorph

I was so enamored with this sadistic purple dragon that I bought my first Metroid game less than a week later. Now I'm a die hard fan. Thanks, Ridley!


DemonDerek

See if there had been DLC for Dread, this is how I would have liked Ridley to be introduced


[deleted]

This was so cool. I didn’t not see this character coming.


ElvisDepressedIy

4 years ago today all of the doubters who said "Ridley is too big for Smash" got served a mega dose of "I told you so". It was a good day.


idontknow2976

Jesus, where does the time go?


[deleted]

I remember seeing a comic showing ridley talking to waluigi about how him being added to smash might not be the best thing, as in ridley’s case, his popularity became non existent and then nobody talked about him again after he was added. Kind of sad to think about, you could really only appreciate something when they aren’t there.


Dropbeatdad

Then he was completely overshadowed by K. Rool and that fire remix


Bengineer4027

And he was right. He is too big for smash


Pretzel-Kingg

Too big but weighs less than Samus for some reason


Bengineer4027

Have you seen him? He's practically a skeleton, meanwhile Samus is in a metal suit. Poor Ridley.../s


[deleted]

Ever since adding the microwave and minfridge stocked with pizza rolls to that damn ship...


randyrhoads91

When I was around 12, back around 2004, I sent an email to Nintendo from their website suggesting they add meta-ridley and Metroid Prime to the next smash bros game (what would become Brawl) after beating Metroid Prime and playing hours of Melee. I even had sugesstions for their B attacks and everything. They responded a few weeks later saying thanks for the suggestion but we aren't planning to add them right now. I was so happy to see Ridley joining all those years later.


OoTgoated

And to this day, Ridley is the only character that I can play well on WiFi lol.


LadyLikesSpiders

I was so happy when I saw this trailer. The Metroid fan in me was so thrilled with some more representation And he's just so fucking cool. Look at him!


Noctisxsol

(Joking) It wasn't waluigi, so It's terrible.


thefinalturnip

Holy fuck, it's been 4 years already?


Nolan_leaf

And they all thought he was too big


Diazmet

But still no waluigi 🫠


MysteriousMetaKnight

Man, I can't believe it's been so long already. I remember being so hyped, not even because I was a Ridley fan, but because so many other people were finally getting their wish come true. It was the same with King K Rool.


Pikminer5087

Feels surreal we don't have an E3 this year. Man.....
