If you were developing the SSB franchise, what stages would you have chosen for each game?
Rules:
The number of playable stages are the same as they were in the canon games.
You can bring back more retro stages if you remove newer stages (e.g. swapping Pokefloats for Saffron City).
64: Peach’s Castle, Kongo Jungle, Super Happy Tree, Pokemon Stadium, Hyrule Castle, Planet Zebes, Dream Land, Sector Z, Final Destination
Reasons
The original stages made sense to me, but I replaced Mushroom Kingdom with FD since it will be in my Melee Stages anyway.
Melee: Mushroom Kingom (64 style), Bowsers Castle, Subcon(Mushroom Kingdom II), Kongo Falls, Minecart Mayhem, Temple, Great Bay, Crateria, Brinstar Depths, Yoshi’s Island, Shiver Star/Dream Land, Fountain of Dreams, Corneria (Smash Remix version), Venom, Pokemon Stadium, Pokefloats, Mt. Silver, Archaneia, Onett, Magnificant, Mute City (3DS style), Icicle Mountain (NES style), Flat Zone
FD, Battlefield, Metal Cavern, Peach’s Castle, Hyrule Castle, Saffron City
Reasons:
Subcon/Mushroom Kingdom II, Temple, Great Bay, Brinstar Depths, Yoshi’s Island, Fountain of Dreams, Venom, Pokemon Stadium, Pokefloats, Onett, FD, and Battlefield made sense to me.
I prefer Mushroom Kingdom 64 over the Melee Version
Bowser’s Castle is an important location
I wanted a non jungle map, and I like Kongo Falls more
Crateria brings more variety than Brinstar
Shiver Star is a Kirby 64 level, but of that’s too late, then Dream Land can return
This version of Corneria gives us a different stage from Sector Z
Mt. Silver gives us a gen II map, and I’d prefer it over Sprout Tower.
Archaneia was planned
Magnificant is pretty
Mute City and Icicle Mountain have a more retro feel, and I like the for 3DS version of Mute city over Melee’s
I want to give Metal Cavern multiplayer accessability
For the 64 maps, I went with my favorites
Brawl
FD, BF, Delfino Plaza, Luigis Mansion, Figure 8 Circuit, Mario’s Rainbow Castle, Mario Bros, Gangplank Galleon, 25m, Bridge of Eldin, Pirate Ship, Norfair, Frigate Orpheon, Yoshi’s Island (Brawl’s Version), Halbred, Krazoa Palace, Sky Pillar, Spear Pillar, Port Town Aero Drive, New Pork City, Castle Seige, Summit, Flat Zone+, Skyworld, Wario Ware, Shadow Moses Island, Green Hill Zone, Distant Planet, Pictochat, Smashville, Venus Lighthouse
Mushroom Kingdom, Kongo Falls, Hyrule Castle, Crateria, Yoshi’s Island Melee, Fountain of Dreams, Corneria, Pokemon Stadium, Magnificant, Mute City
Reasons:
Delfino Plaza, Luigis Mansion, Figure 8 Circuit, Mario Bros, Bridge of Eldin, Pirate Ship, Norfair, Frigate Orpheon, Yoshi’s Island,
Halbred, Spear Pillar, Port Town Aero Drive, New Pork City, Castle Seige, Summit, Flat Zone+, Skyworld, Wario Ware, Shadow Moses Island, Green Hill Zone, Distant Planet, Pictochat, Smashville made sense to me to stay.
A mario party board would be fun to play.
Gangplank Galleon is an important location from DK, and 25m would be less hated than 75m
Star Fox gets a map not on top of a ship
Sky Pillar represents gen 3
Venus Lighthouse gives Golden Sun a map
The retro maps are mostly my favorites or those with more diversity from the original 10 franchises.
For 3DS
FD, Battlefield, Bowser’s Castle, Mario’s Rainbow Castle, 3D Land, Rainbow Road, Paper Mario, Kongo Falls, Yoshi’s Island Brawl, Wario Ware, Dark World, Spirit Train, Crateria, Secret Sea, Sector Z, Unova Pokemon League, Sky Pillar, Saturn Valley, Mute City, Duck Hunt, Arena Ferox, Bomb Reset Forest, Distant Planet, Green Hill Zone, Tortimer Island, Wiley Castle, Find Mii, Tomadochi Life, Boxing Ring, Pac-Maze, Gaur Plain, Balloon Fight, Pichtochat (Brawl), Living Room
For WiiU (green indicates 8 player capability)
FD, Battlefield, Big Battlefield, Luigi’s Mansion, Mario Galaxy, Figue 8 Circuit, Delfino Plaza, Mushroom Kingdom, Rainbow Road Jungle Jynx, Gangplank Galleon, 25m, Wooly World, Yoshi’s Island Melee, Gamer, Skyloft, Temple, Pirate Ship, Great Bay, Pyrosphere, White Wafers, Halberd, Krazoa Palace, Corneria, Khalos Pokemon League, Pokemon Stadium, Magnificant, Big Blue, Flatzone+, Duck Hunt, Archaneia, Castle Seige, Palutena’s Temple, Skyworld, Garden of Hope, Egg Carrier, Smashville, Town and City, Wiley Castle, Wii Fit Studio, Wuhu Island, Boxing Ring, Pac-Maze, Gaur Plain, Wrecking Crew, Venus Lighthouse
DLC: Peach’s Castle, Hyrule Castle, Fountain of Dreams, Mario Maker, Miiverse (Wii U), Bridge of Eldin (Wii U), Suzaku Castle, Midgar, Umbra Clock Tower
Reasons:
I didn’t want a lot of grassy Mario Maps, so Bowser’s Castle is in over Golden Plains
Since Mushroom Kingdom is in the Wii U one, I decided to put the Mario Party map in the 3DS game
Kongo Falls is in over Jungle Japes since I didn’t add the later
I went with ALttP map over an arguably 2nd OoT map
Crateria takes Brinstar’s spot since I didn’t add the later
I wanted a post Superstar map for Kirby
Sector Z is pretty much a bigger canon Corneria
I wanted a new Mother map that I didn‘t add yet
I decided to bring back an old Pokemon map instead of having two new ones
Instead of Murshroom Kingdom U, I went with the original one
I put Rainbow Road in both games, so there’s only one new Mario Kart track
Gangplank Galleon is in over Kongo Jungle for variety.
25m takes 75m’s spot again for the latter being infamous
Great Bay is in over Bridge of Eldin
White Wafers gives us another post Superstar map
No new Star Fox maps
Pokemon Stadium is the original one
I wanted another F-Zero map
Archaneia would be more interesting than Colosseum
Palutena’s Temple would be much smaller
Sonic Adventure is my favorite Sonic game
Pac-Maze over Pac-Land since the former just screams Pac-Man to me
Gaur Plain has the 3DS version
I wanted to keep the Golden Sun map in.
For DLC, Fountain of Dreams is one of my favorite 3 stages in the series along with Hyrule Castle and Magnificant
For Ultimate Stages, I’ll have to think about it, but all of the new stages will stay. From the stages I had, I’ll have to cut 11.
I’ll cut Jungle Jynx, Pyrosphere, Icicle Mountain, Flat Zone, Pokefloats, Shiver Star, 3D Land, Venom, Saturn Valley, Miiverse, and Wooly World.
Jungle Jynx, Pyrosphere, and Miiverse were cut becuase they would not work as intended in Ultimate.
Flat Zone+ is more or less an upgraded Flat Zone.
The others felt as the most expendable even if I like Pokefloats.
