And what kind of a writeup did they give us? (Can't access Kotaku, it makes my computer spasm for some reason.)

It's not referencing anything on gaf directly, just linking to some ridley conspiracy theory videos that i've seen here. I'm just referring to 'ridley conspiracy theorists' when I say 'you nutsos' (lovingly)
not really
 
While that totally legit leak from that totally legit Sakurai Twitter account is totally legit, I want to remind everyone something:
If Ridley is going to be playable, it's not going to be Prime Ridley. We already know that the Ridley model shown in the Smash Direct is Other M Ridley, so don't trust any leaks that show Prime or Brawl's design.

Holy shit... I didn't checked GAF during this weekend and I come back to +200 pages.

Can someone give me a brief recap, please? Hahaha

What if it's some sort of hybrid? After all, the Zero Suit Samus we got isn't exactly Other M Samus either.

True. I just reallllyyy hope they learned a lesson from Brawl.

You also should keep in mind that KI:U is a completely different genre from Smash. Because Smash is basically a fighting game it needs really, really good and different netcode from KI:U. KI:U is like an arena shooter so it doesn't really demand precise inputs in the same way a fighting game does, there's also probably some 'tricks' involved in making KI:U play as well as it did online that a fighting game can't use.

So, just because KI:U had relatively good netcode doesn't really mean anything in relation to Smash because the last Smash Bros. game he made did not have good netcode. And Bandai Namco is definitely fallible in online netcode as, if I recall correctly, TTT2's netcode was not nearly as good as Soul Calibur V's (I didn't play TTT2, just what I read around).

If somehow Ridley makes in, alts for him are a must :p

The entire "cloning Metroids using cells found on Samus' suit" explanation in Metroid Other M is so goddamn stupid. Why on Earth would the Galactic Federation need to do that when Metroid Fusion shows in the very first cutscene that they already had the last Metroid's cells and used it for the X vaccine? Did they just forget they had those lying around?


And why did they keep the whole thing a secret from Samus when she gave the Federation scientists a Metroid to study in the first place?



Do the Galactic Federation just really like making things harder for themselves?

Other M not only fucks its own narrative preceding it as well as the one it currently tells, but retroactively ruins a game that's supposed to be the canonical continuation to it.

Fusion's story is literally fucking nonsense after Other M. Even when Sakamoto disregards the Prime games from the timeline to justify Other M's story it still fucks up.
 
It's only painful if you're gullible. :)

Listen we get it you're super sleuth and don't get fooled by fake leaks just let us have out fun okay.

Well, I mean... it's still gonna take time for some thief to take a copy home, open it, put it in his 3DS, and then start sharing pictures.

I'd say you can safely nap for an hour or two.

Thank you Sandman georly, bringer of dreams.

I will sleep now. If anything happens someone reach through my phone and yell at me.

Sure, that could work. I'm just saying any "leak" that straight-up shows Brawl Ridley is fake.

Ease back on the obnoxiousness why don't cha? :p

Sorry, I just find it funny seeing people get so upset over a leak that took two minutes to deconfirm.
I'll stop though, sorry.

Leaks should probably start tonight or tomorrow morning JP time. I'll be getting my copy tomorrow at any rate.

It is funny, in a genuine way. That's how SmashGAF works, we have big reactions and it makes things more lighthearted. You're right that people should be careful about what they believe, but it's just harmless fun.

Let them eat cake (lol)

Well of course. But so far we only know it's an Other M-styled tail. Nothing beyond that. :)
Given that Pyrosphere is an Other M stage, though, and Ridley truly is its hazard, it's likely he'd be the Other M-version.
 
Hmm. The 3DS' release date got announced 3/4 months before it came out. If we don't get the Wii-U's release date soon I'm gonna assume it got delayed to early 2015 due to debugging/finishing up content.

I know a lot of people say there's no way they'd skip this Christmas but Sakurai can't force the game to be complete.

Edit: Don't forget they did the same thing with Brawl because it wasn't ready.
