We have TWO Metroid reps now, and Ridley is better off an Asisst or a Stage Boss. Ridley is the main antagonist in Metroid, pal. And Dark Samus is the assist in this game, so...

That is so wrong in many levels. Ridley is just one of the bosses on the game, like Kraid or Dragoon. The actual main fucking villian is Mother Brain, since, y'know, she is the actual leader of the Space Pirates. Then how come she hasn't made an appearance (Other M doesn't count) since Super Metroid? How is that relevant to being the leader of the space pirates?

And why doesn't Other M count? It apparently chronologically follows after Super Metroid, so why not? Just like Bowser commands the Koopa Troop to do bad things or how Ganon commands his army of evil men to get the Triforce, anything related to the Space Pirates is an order by their leader, aka Mother Brain, just like how Bowser is the leader of the Koopas. Mother Brain is a higher rank than Ridley, whom is a mere commander that also follows her orders.
