Anyways I've seen Bowsers Castle thread around for a good villan why not Gannon's Tower? The infamous tower that sucks to be Link fighting evil in order to get his princess Zelda..*Link screams..*Zelda!!! Oh..god..

Anyways the leve will be played as it goes, it would be a multi-level kind of like Hyrule execpt the only difference is that you are in the castle. Their would be bobby-traps..like Likes-Likes, Ree-deads, some Wizrobs as well some classic things in Gannon's Tower as well. Add some ideas if you wish.

I like the idea but I think having enemies from the Zelda games might be bad unless there are very few of them (1-3 total). If one is killed than it could respawn 45 seconds later or something.
Alternativly, they could just walk around in the background like the Chozo guy in Brinstar (in SSBM).

As for other traps, I think Lava pits or maybe even a lavafall would do nicely. To make things more interesting, there could be splatters comming from them every few seconds or so. They wouldnt fly out too far, but enough to cover the ground a few feet to either side (and up of course)

I ove the idea, and I support it as well, but let's not exactly move to opstavles or anything else. MAybe they could fight on a flat part of the Tower, and then have some cool effects in the beckrounds and exhilerating original music from the games. Just a suggestion from what would be nice to see, and of course this is my opinion.

Good idea SMB, Gannon's Tower should not be over compliacated as well not to simple for the matter. It should give each and every player a chance to live a survive in the stage. Aslo I was thinking of actual boss from the LOZ series in background..just for fun but that would be too much.

I think it'd fit better if they carried over Adventure Mode, but I could still see it. Maybe after rocks and debris fall after a certain time.

It may be a tad much. There just needs to be a limit on the backround, because people who are going to Smash seriously, may not want to be distracted from such things. In this case, they need to include a customization option to customize the backrounds, efects, and enemy's in a stage.

I would rather see Bowsers castle become part of Adventure mode. Since we can expect a decent amount of characters, I think that it would be cool if Bowser had his own part in your adventure, except being in Final Desdtination. He is already in it, so why not give him a personal stage in Adventure?

Yes we don't want too much happening around Gannon's Tower just enough that smahers well smash and don't get distracted easily. I kind of had that problem with Brinstar dephths, were you were not actaully smashing but playing for survival..It kind of sucked...But having a boss around the background would be nice..Could be like Kraid..almost?

I just looked at it again and u see the red flags? I'm not too familiar with LoZ but wouldn't hyrule's flag have the tri-force symbol on it?(then again wouldn't Ganon's?)

Well i was trying to back u up but there goes ur piece of crap idea (just kidding). U never know though Sakurai might surprise us and add Ganon's castle(maybe in the extended Adventure mode)

Edit: Those are FE Flags btw.

So basically another Infinite Glacier?
Did anyone actually like that level? I think the idea is a static, 'normal' stage, but with multiple levels, and Ganon themed. More Level variety can't hurt, especially levels based on bad guys.

Even though someone probably said this already (because I'm to lazy to read them)
*HEY! I calls them like I sees them*

The Ganon's Tower stage is good way to put a mini-boss for the Adventure Mode. It will be totally flat, with some wreckage still standing in the middle. And in that middle, appears Ganondorf full of pure evil and hatred. And *poof* he transforms into Ganon! Now you have to fend off Ganon! But you can't knock him off, so he uses the HP percentage like what Master Hand uses.
Using Ganon's Tower as a Stage Select wouldn't work as what they said, "they already have a stage like that, it's the new Fire Emblem stage."

Exactly Peeze. They had, like, 5 or 6 stages in SSBM that were clones of Battlefield. Battlefiled was cool enough we didn't need another one. It got so boring. I would love to see like a stage of Ganondorf's castle falling apart after you beat him. It would be slowly moving forward (very slowly) with obstacles like lava pits and monsters slowly approaching you (sort of like a conveyor belt that you are on, VERY SLOW though.) And at the back of the stage the ground would have crumbled into nothing so if a block pushed you backwards then you would fall into the pit and die. Then eventually you would end up in a final destination-ish stage with like two mountains on either side and in the background Ganon is rebuilding his castle and then the ground crumbles away and you freefall for about 2 seconds back down into the stage and it starts over. OMG SO MUCH FUN w00T!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it sounds crazy like fighting and surviving but then Big Blue and PokeFloats were like taht too and those were like the two best stages in the whole game

Wow u liked Big Blue and Poke Floats? I didn't really like those moving stages especially the IC's stage. But the stage u suggested sounds dope. But how would Ganon be rebuilding his castle if u just defeated him? Do u mean we fight him the first time as Ganondorf then on the next go around fight him as Ganon?

Yeah one way to do it would be Glacier-esque.


Or, it could be done on that top platform where Ganondorf 'died.' Not the field where Ganon was, I mean the top of his tower. There could be obstacles if you want, or it would just be that top with some funky landscaping. That and a beautifully animated thunderstorm going on in the back ground as well as constant flashes of lightning to distract the players! :DDDD

I thought the castle was supposed to be from the Fire Emblem series.

If they do make Ganon's tower a level though, they should put an organ at the top in the background. Just for kicks and giggles.

I agree that Ganondorf needs his own level, but save the lava/fire for Bowser. Give Ganondorf one of the final boss stages of Ocarania of Time (either the tower BEFORE you start fighting his human side or the ruins of the castle when you fight his beastly side) as his level.

Yeah, lava's definately a Bowser thing. Ganondorf should keep things mideivel. There should also be Iron Knuckles somewhere in the level, either just walking around in the background, or as full fledged enviromental hazards.
