It's been a long time since i heard of Board The Platforms!! But, right now my idea is we should bring back that Game Mode from the first game!! Smash Bros. 64 has a lot of good game modes that should return! I don't have a picture but it's good enough!

confirmed. Sending supplies.
How much you wanna bet Sakurai will announced it along with a level editor for it? Or maybe do something like Target Practice where there are different difficulty levels?

Well, seeing that Sakurai is trying to squeeze every last bit of fun from this game, I wouldn't doubt at all that it could return.

I hope that it returns in SSBB, maybe it will be in next weeks updates.

Board the Platforms will probably return. I wouldn't be surprised if it was updated next week sometime.

A full-blown level editor for it would be truly awesome, though. Or if you could make hybrid Target/Platform challenges... Imagine the replayability! I don't know if they will, though, because they showed us the DLC screen already, and it didn't have an option like that.

It's likely that it'll return. I don't see why Sakurai wouldn't, with all the features he's putting into Brawl.

Don't remember playing it though it sounds fun. I say Sakurai will bring it back. I mean, he brought back the bumper and intros from 64 so he should bring back a game mode...

It would really be awsome to be able to ''board the platforms'' with all the new characters,especially with the flying ones.

I do believe there is a search function.

And you guys are wrong, the best sound in 64 was "SUPER SMAAAAAAASH BROTHEEEEERRRRRSSSS!"

I've been crossing my fingers that one of these days Sakurai would give an update about it... I really enjoyed that mode.

Eh, I'd say ''FREE FOR ALLLLLL'' or of course


I'm very much looking forward to Board The Platforms, with that, it'd bring back loads of Nostalgia for me and I'm sure everyone else. But, I do believe they would need to change its difficulty a bit, because although Board The Platforms is fun, its way to easy.

Maybe add some enemies this time that are occupying the current platform, or some that will fly and knock you into a spiked wall.

"MARIOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!" No seriously, anything that announcer said waas f***ing AWSOME!~ :)
Board the Platform=it better be in. The more SSB64 and Melee returning extra contents, the better! :)

Would be awesome, and I can see it happening. Since he's trying to bring a lot of 64 stuff back.

Board the Platforms is almost destined to return, with the slightly toned down Break the Targets modes and what-not.

There'll probably be a third thing as well, in a similar vein to have a sort of tour de force... Stack the Blocks? Catch the Pidgeon? Gnaw a Bone?

Actually, the Catch the Pidgeon joke gave me an idea. Something that would be quite nice is a mode where you have to chase and break a Smash Ball which is floating about an awkward maze or something. Rather than co-op, it could be like a proper race between you and your opponent... though obviously there would have to be something to even up slower and faster characters.

I miss it :cry: I want it to return... but I don't think it will... it'd be very nice though. There might be another one instead, like the Trophy thing in Melee.

I'm wondering if Race To The Finish will be changed again? Or removed?

That'd be awesome. Chasing a smashball game I mean. You against your friend etc etc


Anyways, I loved Board the Platforms. It was awesome! I hope it returns.

Well, since Sakurai is going crazy with 2-player everything mode, I'm sure there is a 2-player Board the Platforms mode.
