How soon until you think Nintendo will announce another direct? Is there a specific cooldown time until they mention another one? I mean..This wasn't a general Nintendo direct. Just a Hyrule Direct. I want them to announce another one so we can get an epic Ridley trailer. :D

So, Team Ninja is involved in a Nintendo game again...looks awesome.
Anydorf, something tells me Ganondorf will be revealed soon...with Ridley...maybe that trailer...and Ganondorf...Item Get pose...
o___o I hope you don't mean a pizza made out of mangled Ridley....
Ridley Pizza is pizza made by Ridley himself totally not using random humans he saw while buying some milk. Tastes like rainbow. Or cat food...i don't remember...

This is horrifying news.
I doubt they will do anything other than gameplay and graphics. Other M is not their fault...at least not ONLY THEIR fault. Story was made by...what's-his-face name...right..?
EDIT: Ninja'd?
That unfortunately doesn't means we will get Ridley or Samus in Hyrule Warriors...that would be awesome.

Would Ridley look weird if he would open those chests? With Item Get pose and everything.

Is a PTSD those things you have to ask your significant other about before you um .... do it?



No. PTSD stands for "Post Traumatic Stress Disorder" look it up. You're thinking of an "STD." Which stands for "Sexually Transmitted Disease."

On topic: Even though I couldn't care less about Final Smashes, I'm very curious about what Ridley's will be.

Guys I think we got 2 newcomers trailers left (theyll be some hidden characters) but I say will get a starfox reveal (falco,wolf and hopefully krystal) but because ganadorf is evil (also the direct so let's wait 1 week) maybe ridley could appear other then that gamescom is coming up and Nintendo will be there.

Despite it being a direct specifically for Hyrule Warriors, many were still only clamoring and expecting for Smash news. Sad, really. Let other games breathe for once :facepalm:

-------------

Anyways, I am confident that Ridley will not appear in a Picture of the Day. After being teased twice, it seems that something special (from the Developer's perspective, anyway) may be planned for Ridley, whether playable or boss. Thus, I predict that the next time we see Ridley will finally be footage, whether a trailer featuring him being playable or why his Boss feature was worth two ambiguous allusions (hint: it probably won't be worthwhile assuming he's a boss :glare:).

Showing off Ridley in a PoTD would be counter-intuitive: all that build up for a still image? Even though I vehemently disagree, I can see from a Developer's perspective why Ridley being a boss on Pyrosphere could be hype worthy, as on a technical standpoint it can offer new ways to play in Smash (horrible, overglorified ones, but still new ways).

However, two special allusions to Ridley (something that the Yellow Devil didn't receive) for only Ridley to be shown in a PoTD with Sakurai detailing pretty much what we already know about bosses but with just different attacks? There's no better way for any Ridley reveal to be more anti-climatic, and ultimately for the teasing and hype building to fall flat on it's face for everybody, whether a Ridley supporter or not. :rolleyes:

Before watching the Hyrule Warriors Direct, I have to say that I doubted Ridley's vague labeling as a "boss character" before in the past. But now? I find it interesting that Zant was called the exact same thing in the Direct, and yet was shown to be a playable character.

I still don't consider it evidence for his inclusion, but I don't think it's so much straw-grasping like I thought before in the past.

Indeed. When Sakurai stated that they're near the bottom of their stash of Newcomer videos, I immediately assumed two. All of his trailers are put together really well so I'm REALLY pumped to see the last few.

First off, IsmaR is gonna come in here and kick our a**es for the Zelda talk.

Second
Am I the only person who dislikes Ganondorf's new design? They have him in like a mullet, my friend and I said he was a "grandma rocker" I don't like him, but I do understand what they were going for with Demise's hair and all. But it really doesn't fit him.

I agree. I'll always be a fan of the Gannondorf buzz-cut.

At least Ridley doesn't have to worry about these hair issues.

O__0 I don't know why it appeared as a spoiler thingy...I don't even know how to do that....

He/she(HE OR SHE?!) will most likely do that anyway since we got off-topic few times, so...
I don't like his new hair too. Doesn't looks like something a guy like him would have. Everything else is fine.
My body is ready for a banhammer strike.
Any metroid games having a anniversary soon? (Ik it wont happen but is there)
Most of Metroid games were released in August...so...yes...i think...
I know that its not their first release dates...at least not all of them are...but still it counts.

Some body draw ridley with giant anime girly pony tail.
Your profile pic made this comment very creepy :laugh:

The direct was cool, Ganondorf looks amazing, Back too Ridley, I really hope Sakurai decides to end it with a Ridley trailer, It would take the internet by storm if he did. But I have to entertain the thought we might have to wait till release to discover what his role is.

Your pretty precise I'd expect it to however krystal and ridley are likely the last two revealed newcomers if they get trailers (it's likely since this is basically metroid month)

So anyway. About Ridley, do you think it would be bad on sakurai to not have some BIG trailer for him?

I personally think it'd be pretty anti climactic just finding out about him through some September leak, and his trailer looks so magnificent in my eyes.

Can Nintendo just announce the year of Villains thing already?

Anyhow, just getting back/starting renovations now. If the discussion continues veering off topic, it'll end with a lock rather than any updates.

Let me give you all a bit of a trailer pitch for Ridley after being away for so long with this college semester slowly coming to a close:

The characters announced in this trailer:

Ridley: Main Newcomer
Krystal: Secondary newcomer
Falco: Returning Veteran


The trailer starts out in space, a wave of three arwings, Fox giving his instructions out to his team-mates that their target their target is coming into view. Their target? The Space Pirate mothership from Metroid: Zero Mission. The three move in on their targets before a wave of Space Pirate infantry fighters are released from the lower hull of the ship, engaging the starfox group in an interstellar dog-fight.

As the three move into attack position, we get a shot of our first character, Falco, who opens with a smarmy remark as they begin to engage the fighters, barrel-rolling past a few shots before delivering a few shots into the hull of one of the fighters. Fox instructs his team mates to try and cover him as he tries to get a good shot down at the mother-ship, but one ship ends up getting past Falco and going after Fox. Falco, alerting Fox of the oncoming ship. Not being able to get it off his tail, he calls out for assistance, in which the third ship flies in and takes down the space pirate fighter, which then reveals the pilot of the third arwing to be the first newcomer, Krystal

"Krystal foresees the battle!"

Giving him an encouraging remark and to be careful, Krystal and Falco cover Fox as he takes an open shot on the mother ship, damaging part of the outer hull. Inside the ship, a dark shadow of a familar foe can be seen, its eyes gleaming as it waches footage of what's going on outside. However, not pleased, it taps on a button that opens up a hole below where it was sitting, spreading its wings and soaring out into space. As the Starfox team takes on the troops, Fox's ship gets damaged by a fireball shot from an unknown location. His ship damaged, Fox needs to land, aiming to try and get in through the open hangar on the mother ship, Falco and Krystal following after him for protection. As the ship crashes into the hangar, Fox will jump out, taking out a couple of Space Pirates with his blaster. The two other starfox members fly in and land, running to check on their squad leader. Fox remarks that he's fine, but his attention is soon turned to a large shadowy figure flying in through the hangar, landing on the ground and slowly walking up to the group. As it steps into the light, the shadow reveals itself to be Super Metroid, the true newcomer of this trailer.


"Ridley Soars into battle!"

Ridley gameplay will be shown with banter from the Starfox crew thrown over it, talking of Ridley's strengths in the air but how he appears to be slow and sluggish on the ground, which is where Krystal remarks that that will be when she'll make her move, which will then lead into a small portion of Krystal gameplay but then back into Ridley's for a final smash ending.
