I don't hate Ridley, I just don't see anything special about him.

Those other Hunters from Metroid Prime Hunters, maybe?

I feel that any other charcter may not be a good choice since they aren't as important as some one like Ridley(granted,I know nothing about this Rundas fellow).

Gandrayda would comprise herself, Rundas, and Ghor (and maybe some of Samus)

[up][up]A fellow hunter of Samus's with an ice theme.

As mentioned, though, he falls squarely on the list of Metroid one-offs.

The Hunters in Hunters are side characters of a spin-off game that everyone ignores. They're Waluigi tier level of importance, except Waluigi comes from Mario (one of the top 2 franchises) while those guys come from B-tier Metroid.

Rundas, Ghor, and Gandrayda are slightly better choices, but ultimately still minor characters from one game. So they're Daisy level, except lower because they're from Metroid, not Mario.

Then there's Adam, who kind of appeared in two games. And he would be the most hated character guaranteed. So he's an even worse option.

It's Ridley, Dark Samus, or bust really.

If we do have Ridley as a fighter,I want his thing he does in this video to be in in some form.

Dark Samus being relegated to Assist Trophy probably killed all hope of anyone but Ridley getting in.

Dark Samus got a whole trilogy, was by far the most dangerous of all of nintendo's "Evil/Dark Counterparts" and certainly one of the most terrifying. Got to be the final boss of all three Main Prime Games, in some form or another.

The only other characters of note besides the Samuses are Mother Brain, who's not nearly mobile enough for Smash, and Ridley, her arch-nemesis. Who she's killed at least half a dozen times. It took a planet-annihilating explosion to actually kill him for good. And then his corpse was intact enough for the X to infect. (I'm skipping other m because it is objectively a terrible game on every level and you will never convince me any of it wasn't a fever dream Samus had while in the surgery to get the X off of her.)

Rundas, Gandrayda, and Ghor all kicked the bucket (I personally kinda wanted Rundas to be in), Dark Samus is an Assist Trophy as well as Mother Brain and the Metroids themselves, seriously, there is no other good Metroid representative aside from Ridley, who is pretty much the Bowser to Samus's Mario. So yeah, that's what's so special about him.

The Charizard and Ridley thing is a much bigger stretch.

I really can't tell when these things are on purpose or accidental.

It'll be a menu showing a list of Pokéball and Assist Trophy characters, and will include Mewtwo and Isaac.

Then Friday will be an image of the title screen.

Or what if he reveals another character?

He might as well, only two days left.

After Brawl's launch, Sakurai added posts detailing the secret characters, so I'm anticipating something similar happening here.

Link gets rekt by a 0 to death Mario combo.

Things like this make me confident that 4 will have a scene.

That required poor DI on Link's part and a perfectly timed Forward Air-Meteor Smash hit, but dang.

Yah, I know a Link player could have escaped from that. Still doesn't change the fact that combos in Smash 4 is very much a thing (and it was fun to watch no?).

I love having combos back. They were very fun in Melee(I forgot how much 64 did them, though).

Shadow?
