I can't really see Ridley being a playable character; he's too big. I've seen a Ridley Texture for Charizard (who is already a rather big and heavy character), and Ridley being shrunk down looks pretty bad to me.
Now, before someone brings up the "but Bowser was big, they managed to shrink him down" argument, Bowser doesn't have a consistent size in the games, and anytime he's gigantic is because of magic or something. Without magic (or whatever else increases his size), he's usually about twice as tall as Mario, so it works out.
Besides, Bowser has been the biggest target out of all the characters in Melee and Brawl, and having another character break that trait would be rather awkward to me. =P
And before someone mentions Giga Bowser too for being playable, that's an alternate form, that requires an item to transform into a gigantic wrecking machine, but you'll be spending the majority of your time as normal Bowser, so... yeah. =P
A gigantic character like Ridley should just be a stage hazard, or a boss again. Or just be part of the stage background or whatever, but I can't see him being a playable character.
^Just my 2 cents on this.
