Bowser's Castle level please

Thunderslf · Aug 6, 2007

Super Smash Brothers Melee featured Bowser as a playable character, but no Bowser's Castle stage for him to play on! Since Brawl also features Bowser, I think Bowser needs his own level this time. A Bowser's Castle level would be pretty awesome too. Just imagine Peach's Castle, only with a MUCH darker feel to it (Maybe instead of moats there can be lakes of fire, it could resemble Bowser's Castle from Paper Mario too) and without the the big tower in the middle of the castle. Discuss Bowser's Castle here.

I think it's time for one.

If there IS lava, I can see people getting burnt and sent flying like the acid from Melee's Brinstar.

Yeah, I think there should be a Bowser castle stage. It'd be awesome!

For a Bowser's castle stage, I'd prefer one reminiscent of the original Super Mario Bros. with thwomps and flame throwers and buttons that destroy all the platforms. Of course, a Bowser's Castle stage theme is much needed and is up there with Tetra's Pirate Ship as my err, award for two most-wanted-by-Smile-Guy stages award!

It could be like the Double Dash one, and you're on a moving platform, a la Delfino/Mute City style.
It follows the route, and at the part with the fireball room, you all have to jump to dodge being burnt

I think after they confirmed Bowser, they confirmed a stage for him.

I mean, who doesn't think he'll have a stage? He's been here since Melee. That deserves a stage, even Ness got two!

I don't think they'll give him a stage. They give the stages to different games not individual characters. So the mario series will get a stage, and earthbound will get theirs. Bowser will just have to share for now.

I dunno about the lava thing, that would make it way to similar to brinstar in my oppinion.

But I do think it would be great for a bowser castle stage, that would be really cool.

thats a good point....

But when you think about it, Ness had his own stage in melee.
Although that is because he is the only character earthbound character in melee...

So did G&W and Samus.

9Kplus1 · Aug 6, 2007

It'll definatly be one, probabally one of his Boss Stages in SM64 or the Final Level in Super Mario World

mario-man · Aug 6, 2007

@ TheSpindoctor

So......they should get rid of Brinstar anyways. So....what's the point

OmegaXXII · Aug 6, 2007

definetly should be one of Bowser's stages in brawl, after all it was in The New Super Mario Bros. which i wouldn't doubt ifit made an appearance again being that it a recent game

YES! Paper Mario Bowser's Castle FTW. It'd be awesome.

Whether or not it's Paper Mario style or not we need a Bowser's castle stage!

vesperview · Aug 6, 2007

Well he hasn't really had a castle since Super Mario World, If you think about it, in Mario 64 he was just in a platform and you only had to get through a very dark platform level to get to him, now in Sunshine he's just in a hot tub throwing missiles at you, plus is like a lot easier to put a bowser stage on Mario kart because they are only limited to characters from Mario, therefore I doubt they'll give him a stage.

bored · Aug 6, 2007

I could draw so many conclusions to how a Bowser Castle stage would look like..

He had a castle in all the Paper Mario games including Super Paper Mario and in New Super Mario Bros.

Actually Melee had two Earthbound stages Onett and Fourside.

Yeah that's true but I guess you couldn't put the paper mario castle for 3D bowser.

Which was already said in this topic.

Why not? It's still Bowser.

Because they would have to put the Bowser from Paper Mario in order to make that type of castle, Hello!

Oops... I thought it was said before, sorry. XD

Well I guess we also need retro Mario for Mushroom Kingdom.

Sugoi · Aug 7, 2007

Bowser stage would be great to have so I'm hoping to see one, the one from Mario Cart DS would be cool, all the lava and such.

splat · Aug 7, 2007

I posted this in Create-a-Stage once, but I think it fits here too ^^,

susu_atari · Aug 7, 2007

I second the notion of a Brinstar-feel lava lake. I had an idea for a Bowser stage a while back, in some detail. Basically, you have your lava bed, and three base platforms, slightly separated, going up and down, in and out of the lava, slowly. You then have three platforms above those in the usual triangle shape, but with the lower ones out to the side a bit more, so they overlap the edges of the main stage. The whole thing should be about as long as Final Destination all together.

Pieman0920 · Aug 7, 2007

The lava is a must, but I'm not a big fan of it rising. Perhaps it just surrounds the field, like Termina Bay did? I think that could work well enough, as if you hit the lava, you'll get the same effect as Brinstar lava. :O

Anyways, there are loads of different traps that could be implemented. I wonder if Sakurai could implant a system, where different traps are cycled as the match goes on. (Like say one of those fire wheels comes down at one point, is retracted, and then replaced by a Throwmp that attacks a certain area)

Paden260 · Aug 7, 2007

I agree, Bowser needs a stage. I'm clueless to why they gave Peach a level instead of Bowser. Since, torturing-Castle of Death is always fun. XD

Sugoi · Aug 7, 2007

Splat I like that pic, I think if they could make something similar to that for Brawl it be a great stage, they should replace Peaches stage for Bowsers or another lame stage.

Dragon Master Luigi · Aug 17, 2007

Yep I was thinking the same thing too!!!

PsychoIncarnate · Aug 17, 2007

Bowser of all characters deserves his own stage...

A Mario Bros 3 Castle for him would be perfect...

Lava, thwomps, the whole thing...

Papa Mario is an ok game...but considering it was suppose to be a sequel to Mario RPG...it never lived up to the original.

The new Paper Mario looks great though.

enigma618 · Aug 19, 2007

they defitenely need a bowser stage with a falling floor or something like that

Jordo · Aug 19, 2007

Bowser in the fire sea from mario 64:

The one with the see-saw effect. Now that would be gangsta.

Sir James · Aug 19, 2007

There are so many versions of Bowser's Castle....there is no excuse to leave it out of Brawl! They can add the castle from games like Super Mario Bros 3, Super Mario World, Super Mario RPG, Super Mario 64, Paper Mario, etc. In fact, why not add more than one version of the castle?

xenogears23 · Aug 20, 2007

bowser totally needs a stage...if for nothing else but variety

honestly where f*ck is the lava in smash?

lava has only been a basic nintendo obstacle since forever lol

a bowser castle could have a night sky and fireballs shotting up and a ton of other great things to spice up smash

i say YES

i completely agree... the closest thing they've had to lava is the acid in samus' level. there's always a bowser track in mario kart, why not a stage in brawl? I think they could even make a stage similar to final destination but based off of one of the bowser boss fights in super mario 64.

With the bombs on the side that cause MASSIVE DAMAGE when touched.

Haruno Kotetsu · Aug 20, 2007

Oh wow. This is the 4th Bowser Stage i've seen on this board. XD

Bowser Castle FTW

chaos_Leader · Aug 20, 2007

there are way to many possibilities for a Bowser's castle stage to not have at least one featured in Brawl. I say go for it

dsoreo39 · Aug 20, 2007

yep

i want a bowser castle stage too!

Desruprot · Aug 20, 2007

It would be a good idea, after-all post-Super Mario World, we certainitly need it. There is a legacy going along with the stage.

Bowser's Castle level please
