Stage Discussion

[AIM0001]

The yarn stage for Yoshi looks awesome. Does make me wonder why they did a Yoshi yarn stage and not a Kirby epic yarn stage seeing how Kirby's "yarn" game is out and Yoshi's isn't...Either way should be fun!

 

[Aenglaan]

I can't recognise this stage. Does anyone know what it is?

The look of the water almost looks like Pirate Ship from Brawl, but you can't see the rest of the sea and the water is transparent.

 

[LunarDistortion]

The biggest thing for me about Congo Jungle is that it proves that stages from Melee and 64 can still appear if they weren't in Brawl.

So basically everything from the DLC Stages section of my signature could appear in the full game, that's exciting.

 

[Banjodorf]

Does anyone have a picture of the other stage select screen shown in the Direct? I could've sworn I saw one that had more stages than the "My Music" one; one with Skyworld in the bottom left corner or something.

 

[zony514]

I just checked at the Smash Wiki, and it looks like they revealed the stage from Yoshi's yarn game, and Pokemon Stadium 2 will be a returning stage.

Anyhow, I just thought of a theory about the stages. Does anybody still remember the arrow buttons leaks, which may be to turn pages for the character/stage roster? Here's this theory I've thought...since we know DLC's coming, which may possibly be more new stages, maybe the stage roster will do something if something is downloaded. We know that the roster we have is mixed with the new and returnings, so if you download a new stage, the 2nd page button will appear, moving all the returning stages to the new returning stage page. Just like how they divided the new and Melee stages into two different pages back in Brawl. You think this might happen?

Has there been any gameplay of Windy Hill Zone yet? Also Mario Circuit (MK8) is awesome, maybe even better than Rainbow Road.

There were some gameplays shown for the Windy Hill in this week's direct as that stage can be playable for the 8-player Smash, but I don't think anybody have played it yet back in E3.

 

[Roy-Kun]

I don't understand how people can dislike 75m. I think it's a great stage, plus I dunno, I love the retro feeling I get when playing on that stage.

--Now that I think about it, it may be the stage design. But still, I think it's one of the best stages IMO.

 

[Azew]

I just saw Gamexplain's video for Wuhu Island. While the stage scrolled past the red bridge and the lighthouse I realized that I knew each and every path through the Island. I remember all the good times I had with my family on that Island. I know were every road on there leads to and I remember through it with the Wii remote in my pocket. I didn't know I felt nostalgia for that game, but here I am, crying and wishing I could go back to being young and running past that silly dog with all of my loved ones. I can't stop crying right now.

Yeah, it's a question of stage design. Those tiny plateforms with an erratic disposition isn't really popular.
It's not a practical stage, but I have a soft spot for it.

Just found one on gamexplain, and if this stage is better than Green Hill, then it should be great for 8 players.

I just saw it too. It looks like there's not much of a gimmick to that stage except for the wheel on the right and the bumpers on the bottom edge, but I would like to expect the music for that stage. Heavy metal vocals like Live and Learn or Sonic Heroes may be fine, but I would like more arranges if possible. Sad that Jun Senoue's not in this Smash...

I love the concept of the stage, but I really dislike the stage design. It was a pain to fight on, especially online with lag. Easily one of my least favorite stages

(Also I don't get why the red textures of the platforms are so faded)

 

[Untouch]

this was during the events thing

i'm ASSUMING this is pac land, but is this the omega version? the normal version is an autoscroller

 

[PLATINUM7]

Yeah I'd say that's the FD version of PAC-LAND.

 

[Deleted member]

Yeah I'd say that's the FD version of PAC-LAND.

It looks more like the Omega MS Paint stage to me…

Sonic arrangements would be the best.

 

[Xevious 1]

A Yarn Yoshi stage. You can see it in between Port Town and Yoshi's Island Melee.

I was right!

 

[zony514]

Sonic arrangements would be the best.

And speaking of Sonic arrangements...the only music arrange they had for Sonic back in Brawl was Angel Island Zone, which was made by Jun Senoue, and no one other than him made any arrange songs for Sonic. Since we know Jun Senoue's not in that musician list which means he not gonna participate this time, then there's no other musician who wanna try out the Sonic music arranges. I just don't know why...maybe Sonic's minor than Mario in Japan.

well remeber that was most likely due to how late sonic was added to brawl, theres no reason why there wont be a few remixies this time around

Yeah, just like how Sonic hardly had any actions in SSE.
But oh well, even if there's no arranges for Sonic, his vocal songs are still awesome, so I can accept that.

 

[ToonAdri]

No Game & watch stage in wiiu?

 

[Erotic&Heretic]

I realised that there was the Omega version of the Great Cave Offensive stage in the Direct.

Spoiler

Also, I need some experts eyes. I realized that the tickets in the Master Order modes shows the stage where you will fight, but I can identify one of them.

Spoiler

We can see Battlefield and Wily's Castle, but I don't know what it is for Palutena... I don't think it's Wrecking Crew.

Looks like Colisuem on Palutena's ticket.

Ah, good catch! I forgot there were those plateforms with machinery.

 

[zony514]

Yup, its Coliseum alright. Just like how its shown in this roster.

 

[Yusa]

I found something regarding the return of Pirate Ship - or rather a small hint that it might not.

From 3:55 onwards they are playing 8-Player-Smash on Hyrule Temple. If you listen real closely you'll notice Gerudo Valley running as background music for the stage; and that song was formerly included on the Pirate Ship in Brawl. They could have possibly switched it up but i dunno, this seems rather conclusive to me since they have not ever done that unless a stage was removed.

How about Forest Haven instead? WW should get some kind of representation after its Wii U remake afterall.

Now that you mention it, I clearly saw the great ocean theme in Skyloft's "my music" section in the direct!

Dammit, i was hoping for the ship to return!

we dont know that we've yet to see all the stages

But couldn't that Gerudo Valley music be from the 3DS's Gerudo Valley Stage? They said they're gonna bring the music from the 3DS in the Wii U, and notice it says "Arrange" on it, so it could be different.

 

[Pieman0920]

In regards to past stages, outside of Mario, I would think that its likely that most series won't go past two, so I wouldn't think Gerudo Valley would show up again. So if that assumption is right, I would think the Yoshi, Star Fox, Metroid, or Pokemon series (and maybe Mother, F-Zero, and Mario) would be the most likely for unrevealed past stages. With Kongo Jungle in, I do hope its an indication that we could get Brinstar Depths and Saffron City though. I would also be sort of surprised if Big Blue doesn't come back, since they ported over the Falcon Flyer trophy.

Anyways, for 75m, I don't think its quite as bad as most people say it is, but since we're getting Congo Jungle as well, and the 3DS version already has Jungle Japes, the past DK stages to pick from are really kind of low. Kongo Jungle's dull as dirt, and as hectic as 75m is, I would take that over Rumble Falls.

 

[DoodleDuck97]

Pokémon Stadium 2, Smashville and a 64 stage are confirmed I guarantee it's temple after Project M XD

 

[DoodleDuck97]

Yup, its Coliseum alright. Just like how its shown in this roster.

After seeing this N64 stage it could possibly be temple or Kongo jungle. Or who knows even more O.O

 

[PlayfulMushroom]

Will there be any hidden stages? They mentioned in the direct that the Wii U version will have more stages than 3DS, but the number of stages in the selection screen doesn't look too impressive...

We know there will be secret stages, neither Pac-Land nor Pokemon Stadium 2 (both of which are confirmed to be in the game) are present here.

 

[Vintage Creep]

I'm pretty sure Wind Waker will get a new, possibly better than Pirate Ship stage.
The game got an HD remaster last year.

 

[domokl]

I also feel there is probably gonna be a hoenn stage if wooly world got a stage. I used to think it released too late but apparently not.

Keep in mind though we knew about it for a good while but Mario kart 8 might have to disagree with me.
Hoenn would be great would make my Nostalgia go through the roof :')

 

[Naoshi]

Hoenn stage would be awesome.

So that leaves only Johto without a stage..

Ahh but Johto at the very least got a rep :') Hoenn hasn't had either.
