Look at how Ridley is hunched over in the original Metroid as well, OP.

>>253050539
Bowser's entire fucking thing is that he can change size in canon, he does it all the fucking time with magic. He's also a very easy model to scale, and has several more appearances than Ridley does where he's closer to Mario's height.

Fucking Ridleyfag "logic", ignore all common sense and spout bullshit to look smart when really you're just shooting yourself in the foot and showing that you don't know jack shit.

Bowser wasn't even that big. And Sakurai could easily make it work. He's Sakurai.

Bowser's size has been all over the place throughout the Mario series, yet when it comes to Ridley he's TOO BIG.

Olimar is tiny in comparison to WHAT. As far as we know
>>253050663
is correct. The point is Olimar's scale in comparison to other Smash characters was never nailed down before Smash started and he's an incredibly simple model to scale up or down.

I think you fags are also forgetting that everyone in smash are statuettes that come to life.

Ridley can't change size as a power of him, Bowser has that power.

Ridley have always been to big and the OP only show that he goes from big to huge with ONE game being an exception.

I don't see Phantoon being one of the bosses in Metroid.

Bowser can change size in-canon using magic though you autist. Ridley's size only changed because the NES was too limited to do huge complex models, and Zero Mission retconned him being tiny out. Learn your shit before you open your mouth.

Shut the fuck up you actual retard.
Ridley's model is very large and very complicated, especially with his wings and tail. To try to make a character model large enough to accomodate that would either make the character useless because of having a massive hitbox, or disgustingly ugly because of clipping issues, or both.

Holy shit I am so glad everyone on /v/ is too pathetic to ever try and make their own games, the market would be flooded with toxic shit if that ever happened.

And again, the problem is with Ridley's overly complex model being difficult to scale down without destroying decent hitboxing or clipping issues. You Ridleyfags are the ones who brought Olimar and Bowser into it, so you're just shooting yourself in the foot.

His wings are also too much of a problem since they need to animate and then they'd be clipping through everything.

To work, Ridley as already shown in this thread would have to be at least as large as Bowser, and that's still a fucking terrible rendition of the character. AND his wings, tail, limbs etc all need to animate outwards. His hitbox would be absolutely fucked and considering Bowser is already almost too large to fit under some platforms, a Ridley model with outward extending limbs would be fucked.

So to do proper justice to the character, it's only feasible if you make him significantly larger than the rest of the roster. At which point he's nonviable. Making the character a boss works so much better, but of course Ridleyfags don't actually give a shit about the Metroid series' representation and just want to circlejerk.

And you still haven't provided an example of a decently downscaled Ridley model, so keep shitposting.

Ridley was small in Metroid because hardware restrictions put a limit on the size of each animated sprite. As the power of Nintendo's consoles increased, they were able to portray Ridley as his designers intended.

If you think Metroid and Mario are at all comparable in tone then you're not worth arguing with. It's implied that Bowser has size-shifting powers, but that doesn't even matter because Mario canon is either non-existent or so complex that no human could ever understand it. Bowser is also quite chunky, so he looks better scaled down. Ridley's limbs look like brittle spaghetti when you scale him down to Samus's size. Even if you somehow made it look right, he'd still have long, skinny limbs and huge wings, giving him a massive range of attack on top of his Bowser-level size. Either that, or he'd keep his limbs folded close to his body and waddle around like a limp-wristed retard, half-heartedly slapping at his foes. Ridley also has enormous wings and moves by flying, in a game where the objective is to remain standing on a platform without falling off. It's not quite the same as Pit and Kirby, who move primarily by running, with flying as a temporary option. Ridley flies gracefully, and stumbles around awkwardly on land. Destroying his wings is Samus's tactic for greatly weakening him. Do you even want Ridley to be portrayed in his weakest form?

I shouldn't have too, this is just common sense man. Do you have problems visualizing things?

Go grab an NES sprite and upsize it in MSPaint. It still looks fine. Then go grab a PS1 sprite and upsize it. It still looks fine.

Then do the same with downsizing. Complex images/models look like shit when downsized. This is especially true of models in a 3D space.

Olimar is smaller than a HUMAN BRANDED battery. The smash characters ARE FIGURES. Little toys in a toy box. Olimar is still 10 times smaller.

Confirmed for not knowing jack shit about Metroid. Thank you for confirming my point.

Do you know exactly WHY Metroid villains do not speak, and only very rarely emote? It's because Metroid is about recreating a sense of alien isolation. One of the main inspirations for the series was Alien, in the first place.

Metroid does not need a villain rep because Samus is the ONLY CHARACTER that matters. NOBODY else is supposed to have Player Agency. That's a lot of the reason why Nintendo ignores Prime, they don't see it as creatively on the right track. I disagree with them on that, but it's a pretty fucking basic staple of the series that Ridley, Mother Brain, Kraid, etc. are all just obstacles for Samus to fight against, NOT characters.

So yes, you know absolutely jack shit about Metroid if you think Ridley as a playable character is a good representation of the series.
>>

It shouldn't cause any butthurt. If he's in, clearly Sakurai has found a way to make him work.

Literally only the NES size is scalable and that only exists because of limitations. It's also a fucking disgusting sprite.

You're a fucking moron then.

Clipping and animation problems anon, clipping and animation problems. Ridley's sprite/model is big and lanky and fucked up with limbs and wings jutting out at every angle. When those limbs and wings and tails and knobbly bits don't have ROOM to jut out everywhere, they start clipping into fucking everything.

And then when you start making him walk/run/fly the problems becomes exponentially worse.

Compared to a basic blocky model like Bowser's, whose limbs all go to one point and then stop and who isn't crinkled up like tinfoil, it would be MUCH more difficult to make a working Ridley model.

Which isn't to say it literally cannot be done - although nobody has ever created a model that WORKS - but it drives home the point that Ridley works best, both thematically and from a design view, as a bigass Dragon boss for Samus et al to fight as he flies around wreaking havoc, not a scrawny lizard suffering from scoliosis.

Firstly let's be honest, Ridley was tiny in Metroid 1 because the NES had limitation, due to a big game, Ridley was small to fit the art style etc. Which is why his very next appearence in Super Metroid was huge, and keeping a similar size in Fusion and Zero Mission

But on the flip side, Smash scales characters to fit the scene, so whatever. But my point is don't try to be all

size has nothing to do with it

Right, but not disgusting amounts of clipping through every single piece of scenery.

But shrinking a 3D MODEL from a game like Other M WOULDN'T WORK, as we've already stated, BECAUSE HIS WINGS ARE TOO FUCKING LARGE.

This is a prime example of Ridleyfag logic, they're so fucking contrarian and just outright stupid that they run in circles and end up defeating themselves.

Alright mate lets see an animated scaled down Ridley model that doesn't clip through everything and looks decent.

Project M I believe tried it, and you know the results? HORRIFIC CLIPPING AND ANIMATION, on top of the character model looking like actual human shit.

And, fuck me, that was a Charizard reskin. So using actual fucking resources IN THE GAME still produces vomit-worthy results.

But anon! All scaling is is just linear reduction in size, like all the other Ridleyfags have claimed! It's so fucking easy, Sakurai and everyone else with a computer can do it there's no complexity to it that would make this model not viable at all! - actual retards ITT.

Sakurai is not some epic troll like you make him out to be. There's only been one example of him "trolling" and that was him telling a joke; every other time is you just misinterpreting him so you can justify your delusions of Ridley being playable.

That's the point you fucking goddamned dense mongoloid. He chose to not fucking show the model. I never fucking said it didn't exist. You're going through mental gymnastics by saying he did fucking show the model because there's a few frames with the wing showing.

Nah man, when Ridley gets shown as a boss every Ridleyfag will switch sides to save face and the argument will die immediately. Then it will come back in a few years.

If Ridley does get playable it's gonna be a nightmare because it'll be half the ARfags simply saying 'oh wow sakurai did better than we expect' and half of them going full on Admiral Autism the Hunt for Red Oktober mode.

So I guess it's a toss-up between a meltdown now or a meltdown later.

Are you blind? Ridley is at least 30% taller than Samus in the OP. That puts him above 8 feet.

Its because Ridley is clearly in the game in some manner whether its a boss or as a playable character.
his trophy wasnt shown but an actual moving model unless you can think of another metroid character that has ridley's exact shape and color of claws
>>
>>253061209

Can you fucking read you stupid piece of shit? When the fuck did I say there was no model? I said he decided to not fucking show it clearly. Like he did with fucking every other character deconfirmation.

>>253061658
Okay
so
when has he ever not shown the model of a Playable character?
Never
When they first showed off Yellow Devil they didn't say fully what he was, and only confirmed he was a stage boss later. In Ridley's case he's basically doing the same thing, teasing a stage boss but not fully showing how he works in the stage itself.

So basically there's no precedent either way for the hidden model. So ignore that and focus on the fact that he was shown when Sakurai was specifically talking about stage bosses.

>>253060925

He's bastardized because physically dwarfing the protagonist is one of his key attributes. It works for the other big characters because they still tower over their respective adversaries. I'm impartial to Ridley being in or out, as long they give him an enjoyable moveset and model him off the source material. I would not be ok with using toddler Ridley just to appeal to a vocal minority.

Maybe have him fold in his wings unless flying?
I'm pretty new to these "lol ridleyfags" arguments, but really the anti-ridley shitposters aren't convincing me in the slightest [see >>253058908 ].

Olimar is quite small and they scaled him up heaps. Obviously changing the size of characters to fit the game isn't a problem for Smash.

That said, I don't think Ridley will happen in this iteration anyway because the developers don't know about any demand for him?

I would like him to be in and have space pirates with TUUBES as an ability but know it's unlikely, Shulk or whatever his name is was apparently the likely newcomer

If they can resize Ganon, and resize Olimar, you have precedent for resizing Ridley.

If the wings are what makes him too big, just have them fold in while not in flight [that could be a weakness to balance him out: big hitbox while in the air].

I see no problem here. Although, as I said, I still doubt he'll be included.

Why not just make his tail and wings unhittable? Hitbox concerns addressed. Have them get knocked out of the way of attacks or something. I mean, tails lash about all the time. Shit's gotta be hard to hit anyway. Same with the wings. Have them furl up to avoid attacks/platforms so there's no clipping issue.

It's not like they have to be static. They can open up where there's room and furl down where there's not, and they can lash about to avoid attacks so that they don't have to be part of the hitbox.

They scale easily because they are more or less human. Ridley's wings, tail, and possibly neck wouldn't scale properly to fit the sizes of the other fighters. You could alter those things, but it'd look really awkward on a model that's accustomed to those things at their original size.

the little part you are seeing IS PART OF THE FUCKING MODEL
You can see his model well enough to know that it is in fact Other M Ridley. I don't even know what point you're trying to go on about but whatever it is you'd have to be retarded to understand it at this point so whatever.
>>
>>253069470
>Because they would still clip through goddamn everything
How? The whole point is that if the game detects a clip it runs an animation where the clipping limb recoils from the clip. It can obviously be done - you see it in FPS games occasionally where if you're too close to the wall your character puts his gun up so it doesn't poke through said wall. I think ARMA does it?

>he never furls his wings
I imagine that probably at least once in his life Ridley has furled his wings.

>>253069674
What? I'm not even talking about him being big you meme loving fuck, I'm talking about him furling his wings which never happens when he's attacking Samus,

holy shit why are people who don't want Ridley in the game so insanely pissed off?
Metroid fans aren't a minority either, it's one of the more recognizable series.

But he does fold in his wings?


Here's the ridley Melee cameo, taken from the wiki, to help you understand why it's perfectly fine to add him. See look, even with his wings extended he's roughly Bowser-sized.

Does anybody else think he looks like Spyro kind of
>>
>>253069674
Yeah, that's correct. Ridley is designed to tower over Samus. His lanky, almost skeleton-like body contrasts with his large size, which makes him more intimidating.
>>
>>253069806
>writing an entire bunch of code and creating dynamic animations for one fucking character who's too goddamn big
And Bowser is already almost clipping through platforms anyways. Jesus fuck man at this point there's no goddamn reason to make him playable, you're illustrating everything wrong with a playable Ridley model on your own.

Maybe because making a five second FMV animation is much easier than dynamic game animations and you don't have any clue what you're talking about.
>>
>>253069742
part of the model, a miniscule path at that, does not in any way equal seeing the entire model. and since we know that sakurai has no problem with editing characters and combining different designs, nobody knows for sure what ridley will look like until we see the whole model, or at least much more than we've already seen.

And all of these designs are finalized well before the game starts development, you're not going to magically end up with some scoliosis midget Ridley when we already know he's using the OM design you autist.

they did not specifically show the tail, they literally showed the tip, quit exagerrating shit. and just because some designs didn't get changed doesn't mean none of them did, even though link is different now than he was in brawl, even if it's still the twilight princess design, so you're wrong about that too. and it doesn't matter that the design is already finalized, since no new games have been released since smash started development, so we're already aware of all the material and both Ridleys he can draw from. you can argue all you want but no, you don't know what Ridleys gonna look like until we finally actually see him

She scales just fine, just trim the wings of have them inward unless he's actually flying. Not that hard. But people will post versions of him with varying scale and pretend this is a fact that he CANNOT be playable.

AntiRidleyfags are the worst.
>>
>>253070692

I find your argument not at all compelling. From where I stand it seems to address all problems and all you've said is "NO IT WON'T WORK, HE WILL STILL CLIP" with no explanation as to why or how.

And that's because you can't give an explanation, because whether or not my suggestion would work is all down to the execution of the project - something neither of us would be privy to even if such a project existed. The aims of the project are not flawed.

But my suggestion addresses all concerns and is perfectly achievable. The only question is whether it's worth attempting, and that's a question I'm not going to answer.

do you know what the word showing means?

Sakurai said shot in the dailies aren't final.

>>253071737
No, answer me, if the shadow which is identical to Ridley's and the tail which is identical to Ridley's is not Ridley's, then whose is it?
>>
>>253051225
Ridley is a relevant character to the main series of Metroid.

Geno is a shit character in some stupid ass very obscure Mario title owned by another company.

Genofags are just as bad as Ashleyfags if not more.
>>
>>253071994
>in the dailies
We're talking about the Greninja Direct where they showed him though. Just keep proving you have no fucking idea what you're talking about.
>>
>>253071542
>And unless I'm mistaken you're the same person who said earlier in this very thread that you don't know jack shit about the arguments going on
I don't know jack shit about whether or not Ridleyfags are a commercially viable minority to please, and I dare say neither do you. You might guess, but you don't know.

But I do know the argument that I'm addressing, that Ridley's hitbox would be too big and his wings would clip.

The solution then is to not put his tail and wings in a hitbox and use collision detection to make him furl his wings or coil his tail. It's eminently achievable. The fact that you would even deny that it's possible when other games already do this simply as a matter of course suggests to me that this argument has become a point of personal pride for you. So I don't expect to convince you and I don't expect to get anything reasonable out of you henceforth.

However, we all live in hope, so in good faith take this olive branch:

My suggestion is achievable but it may not be worth the effort to achieve, and so we are both in some measure right.

And look, now you can leave the discussion without losing too much face after all. Your precious anonymous internet reputation preserved at last.

He says the dailies are not complete. That doesn't mean he's going to make random ass changes, only improvements.

Why would they show unfinished/likely to be completely reworked content in a huge reveal video? Do you know fucking anything about marketing?
>>
>>253071974
yes, and showing the shadow of something is not the same as showing the thing itself. so the better question is, do you?

I never once implied that they're not Ridleys. showing a shadow is still. other showing him though
>>
>>253072610
but you're forgetting they also showed the model
>>
>>253071848
They showed his shadow and said shadow portrays his size being on par with Bowser. It's a small Ridley but probably the largest character on the roster. Well, if he is on the roster. I'll keep my hopes up that he is. With that unexpected potd, my hopes shot up.

You didn't imply it, you directly said in >>253066849 that they didn't show Ridley.

So if you're saying that the shadow IS his, can you please now admit they showed Ridley?

There's another argument at cross-purposes now saying Ridley would be too big because his shadow shown was too large, so it won't hurt you to admit you're wrong.

>>
>>253073779
it's only a meme because it got so popular on places that didn't intend for it to be one in the first place.

Whenever one calls it a meme implies that the people who use the logic of the statement are only doing so because it's a popular thing to do, and that they subsequently cannot think for themselves, and that the mentioned logic is nothing more than an appeal to popularity.

There's a reason that "Epic meme bro :^)" is an insult here.

you're missing the point. I'm not saying it might not be ridley, because the shadow definitely hints at him. I'm saying is ridley himself hasn't been shown yet, which he hasn't. showing his shadow is not the same as outright showing him. it's simply hinting at him

Kirby was shown to be the same scale to Samus as he is in Smash in Amazing Mirror I believe, picture posted somewhere ITT, so that settles Dedede's and MK's scale, and Olimar was never scaled in relation to other Smash characters.

And you're going back to the argument already done earlier which is that the complexity of the model is what makes Ridley's model more difficult to scale.

Is it pronounced:
RID - LEE
or
RIDE - LEE?

>>253076529
which brings us back to the fact that sakurai modifies character designs

>>253076540
I've been pro ridley this whole time anon

which is completely irrelevant since we aren't discussing minor model changes but rather massive model overhauls to compensate for clipping or animation errors

>if you don't believe this video proves my point then you just didn't watch it!
again, feel free to actually post a screenshot then. or just keep being wrong.

also you moved the goalposts when you went from being "they totally showed ridley" to "they revealed it was the other m design"
>>
>>253074154

>>253077025
they showed Ridley which was the Other M design. That's basic fucking detail not moving the goalpost you sperglord. If you were actually watching the video instead of shitposting you'd realize that
>>
>>253076910
>massive model overhauls
this is 100% your opinion. the fact of the matter is that sakurai has proven he doesn't mind making changes to a character. how far he's willing to go or how much would be needed for ridley remains to be seen
>>
>>253072907
Well you better tell Sakurai to resize that manlet Other M Ridley who has no bulk to him because it sure as hell isn't big.

feel free to actually show where they actually showed ridley, rather than continuing to stall and accusing people of not watching a video

between the minutes of 7:15 and 7:30 we a shown a shadow which is presumed to be ridley

at 7:22 we see the tip of the tail as presented in pic related

we never see ridleys full model once in the video

>inb4 you didn't look hard enough

no

Changing a character model that, in its own game is fucking massive, to be only slightly taller than a character it towered over is not a small change.

Three enemies from Samus' past, all shown on Pyrosphere.
>>
>>253077357
>you see Ridley's tail
WHICH
Confirms it to be Other M Ridley, as that's the only Ridley with that tail style, and Other M Ridley is large enough to hold Samus in one hand.

Thank you for doing my work for me, hopefully these autists can shut up no
>>
>>253073535
They've tweaked playable character models before. Ridley is likely a composite design, which the shadow more or less points to. Especially since it's so small and not roided up.

>Changing a character model that, in its own game is fucking massive, to be only slightly taller than a character it towered over is not a small change.
I would imagine it would be similar to taking a character that's the size of a quarter and making him as tall as Mario
>>
>>253077497
and none of them specific to Pyrosphere so why they would be mentioned in that quote only your delusional mind could figure out
