It is to no ones surprise that I have put more thought into the character select screen of Super Smash Brothers: Brawl then I have on many more important things in my life. That said I have a large amount of predictions and speculations about what will and what will not make it into the new Brawl when it reaches our shores in February. On Monday and Friday every week from now until, well, until I run out of ideas, I will give one prediction.

December 24, 2007 – RIDLEY

Ridley was a rumored character back when Super Smash Brothers Melee was coming out, and since it seems Nintendo is throwing in as many villains as they can find it would make sense that he would find himself entering the brawl.

His size would be an issue if Super Smash Brothers Brawl didn’t already have a fix in place for that; if Bowser’s size can be modified for the game, so can Ridley’s. He would be an aerial character, not unlike Pit, and have dive-bombs to streak through the levels. He has had so many forms that they could give him any attacks they want, as well as an insane amount of costume choices.

Ridley’s Final Smash could be anything, just like his attacks. A massive breath attack that destroys the stage, turning into Meta-Ridley or any of the more powerful forms he has had, or just growing to a huge size and reaping havoc. Ridley would be a fantastic addition to the lineup, and a good boss battle as well.
