I still stand by either Rundas or Spire for additional Metroid reps.

Oh, I want a diagram. I fucking love diagrams.

IIRC, Kojima had been begging for Snake to be in since before Melee.
Yup, but Melee was too far in development to add him by the time Kojima asked.

It's because they just want Metroid to have more representation, but realize that every character in Metroid that isn't Samus or Ridley kind of blows.
That's just not true at all: Dark Samus, Rundas, Ghor, Gandrayda, Mother Brain, Adam (Fusion), and of course, the space pirate logs from the Prime games.

Usable cast is of course a different matter, but most of those listed would fit.

Saying Ridley is too big for Smash Bros is kind of irrelevant since Bowser's size difference to Mario has depended entirely on the game where in some he's entire stories bigger than Mario and others he's just like 3 feet taller.
The difference is that Bowser's size has always been highly variable (and in some cases been the direct result of magic). Ridley was small in Metroid 1 only, and has remained relatively the same size ever since.

I'm not saying it can't or shouldn't be done, it's just that I don't think the two are all that comparable.

ridley was small in melee's intro video. it's easily doable and putting in anyone from metroid before ridley would be confusing as hell.

Viridi, Goddess of Nature, is about to obliterate the humans as they battle, driven by greed.

Then put in Meta/Omega Ridley and call it a day. No one wins.

Morph-Man, I know you love you some Metroid, but to be perfectly blunt I can't think of a character who would be less interesting for Smash Bros than one who already starts out as an exact duplicate of another character in the game they originally came from.

Besides, if any franchise needs more representation, it's Mother.  Now there's a treasure trove of potential awesomeness.

Giygas confirmed as playable.
Is finding MUGEN to be more enjoyable to play when you're not wearing clothes an underrated opinion?

There can be room for both! Metroid deserves it!

The SA-X is the exact duplicate. Dark Samus sorta looks like Samus and that's where the similarities end. She has a completely different powerset. It's like saying Wario is a complete duplicate of Mario.

Metroid only has a bunch of space creatures.

Shut up J-Grug.

Im opposed to Dark Samus just because it's another Samus. Visual variety is also a factor and there is no purple space gargoyle yet.

Metroid Wiki said:
As Dark Samus, the creature utilized many abilities similar to Samus... It could fire altered versions of the Power Beam.... She possessed standard Missiles as well as Super Missiles ... a Phazon-based Screw Attack, Shinespark or a combination of both... Morph Ball form

Uh-huh...

No Dark Samus and no fucking Dark Pit either.  Make them alternate colors if anything.

Super missiles are obviously completely different from normal missiles, GAWD. They are like, super.

if wario was the endboss in a couple mario games and was never used again and never got his own games or developed a personality i wouldn't want him in the game either

That's not even a remotely fair comparison.  Never in any game Wario has been has he had a power set that was identical to Mario's.
