Yes, Ridley is big, but saying that he's too big is utter s***. Ridley is barely 2.5x the size of Samus, which, depending on if her height is 5'5" or 6'3", is anywhere from 11'4" to 18'6", That's barely bigger than that of Bowser, who's most commonly 3.5x the size of Mario, who is 5'1", which makes him around 15'5". And King K. Rool is 3.5x the size of Donkey Kong, who's already 8'2", making him around 27'3". And Olimar is an inch and a half tall. Shows how much the haters know...which is nothing.

Ridley is this big. Stop being an autist.

You DO know that that Ridley is actually smaller than he is in the actual games, right?

And you want him to be smaller than that? His Brawl size is too big for a playable character. If he's even bigger than that in the Metroid series, then where exactly is your argument?

That's how big Ridley is within gameplay in a Smash Bros. game.

There's nothing else that needs to be said.

His size is not set in the Smash Bros universe, he can't even stay the same size between cutscenes.

And no, we don't use it because he can't even stay the same size between the normal Ridley and Meta Ridley battles.

Still would prefer him as a boss.

He was large in the melee intro as well

You're ignoring the very, very obvious skewed perspective that that part of the opening had, which is idiotic.

Also, you aren't taking the integrity of the character into consideration at all. Your calculations are pointless and I'm not going to waste my fingertips explaining why because you're being incredibly negative. Go do some research on the oppositions point of view before you speak.

But Olimar is roughly the same size as Mario...

Also, you need to take into consideration height comparisons relative to characters that have stood next to each other previously, which you are conveniently ignoring although every other character in the roster follows. Bowser has been seen in recent games as the height he is compared to Mario in game now, Ridley aside from the NES game has always been gargantuan compared to Samus. It doesn't work, and that's why he's a stage hazard.

Cutscenes and gameplay are the same thing, right?

Meta Ridley and Ridley are the same thing, right?

Don't talk to me if you don't even have f*** basic reading comprehension. Also, "his size changes" is not "he wouldn't look retarded scaled down". Do you even know what the f*** argument is anymore?

I... I thought my explanation was so straightforward... how can someone... I'm speechless, I'm absolutely speechless. I don't even understand what you're supposed to be implying by that? I just gave you the characters' canon heights and... and... *head explodes*

Nobody knows what they're talking about over there so yeah Devon S you'd fit right in buddy.

EDIT: Also, we're talking about SSB4, which is on topic. Some people are just more passionate than others, we don't have to exile them to another forum.

If Ridley's playable, kool. If not, oh well.

Also, starting to think it can be something else Metroid related for the hazard. I'm probably totally wrong about it....

Nightmare would be cool. That one appears in Other M right? I only know it from Fusion, but yeah, it would be kinda cool for it to come in and alter gravity for a little bit.
