Actually Ridley as a character is very likely do to the lack of Metroid characters in Brawl. Also if they had bowser and ganondorf in melee and bowser is confirmed in Brawl (both big characters that were downsized) what stops developers from making Ridley a full character. Secondly I think a Metriodwould actually be a good assist trophy becuase it could just come out suck on an enemy (raising enemies pecentage of course). Third and last it is all ready rumored (RUMORED is the key word here for all you people who feel like flaming this) that Sakurai confirmed Ridley as aplayable character. Now i'm not saying ridley will be playable cuz we don't know until it is officially announced or until the game comes out.Mario-Luige

"Nintendo of America said on Monday that its hotly anticipated new Wii fighter, Super Smash Bros. Brawl, will not be playable at the Electronic Entertainment Expo 2007. According to representatives for the subsidiary contacted by IGN, Nintendo has chosen not to display the game in playable form because it has a wealth of other products to show, including some surprises. This, however, does not mean that a formally playable Brawl will not be unveiled in the near future - perhaps shortly after E3 - at a separate event."

Aw man! hopefully they will have some good info to make up for it. I really wanna hear about the online. Sorry if this is old.

To bad its "only for a short time" but that would make it more fair.. but that would still be cool to have it forever.

Sounds sweet. I just hope that the underwater maps are somewhat large to give the feeling of underwater exploration. I have very high hopes for this game. I want a good underwater exploration game with a lot of different fish and mammals to see. I want to take casual dives and deep sea dives. I just want the game to come out..heh.

Yea it sounds great, I took my eye off this title for a while but it looks to have a come a long way.

Cuccoos. Now that isnt a bad idea! Not bad at all! darkshadow64

Yes actually its a horrible idea, im sorry but it would be pointless to have cuccos in SSBB. LIKE really? what paret would the play anyway? clean the battefeild of seeds? :roll:
