lava stage: Mario (Bowser's Castle)

ship stage: Donkey Kong (Gangplank Galleon)

vertical scrolling stage: Kid Icarus?
Personally I like Pirate Ship for "ship stage". Gangplank Galleon would really only be there if K. Rool was...which is pretty likely, so nevermind.

As for The Underworld being a vertically-scrolling stage? I have but two, simple words for you.

F*CK YES​

That's the way it's supposed to be, right? (Kid Icarus seems pretty hard) I can see Pirate Ship returning as a stage. But we need TWO ship stages, so Gangplank Galleon, as it sails by a nice tropical island, would be neat.

Which one's that, the one with the Gyarados?

Yeah, Kid Icarus is split between vertically-scrolling stages (though they don't autoscroll. They just follow you as you make your ascent) and horizontal, autoscrolling shooting levels.

So a upward, autoscrolling stage, filled with swarms of Monoeyes, Nettlers, Shemums, and so on, with the occasional appearance by the Eggplant Wizard and Reaper would be infinitely better than the P.O.S. stage they gave Pit in Brawl.

Seriously, does anybody even like Skyworld?

And I still like the Route X idea better than the island from Snap, because the route not only represents the whole world of Pokemon, but the actual games as well. What better way to represent the long, long journey to Pokemon Masterdom than the actual, physical journey? (The stage could end at the Pokemon League, at which point large flying Pokemon take you back to Pallet Town).

I'm not a fan of Skyworld.

Does the scrolling Route have to take place in Kanto? Holy crud, even better, the stage sometimes changes between regions (wild dream, wild dream!). It could scroll by some landmarks in the background (quickly).

I try, I try. :chuckle:

If there's one Pokemon song that I'd really like to see...it's probably the Primal/Dark Dialga battle music from Mystery Dungeon 2.
Why do *******s feel the need to use my rip and upload the same **** with different backgrounds?
Also, the remix is pretty awesome.
A stage I would really like to see would see is Temporal Tower, but it'd be too much like Spear Pillar.
The runnerup would have to be Sootopolis City with Groudon, Kyogre, and Rayquaza fighting in the background. It's hopeless but it'd be a nice idea.

I think that the 1st gen. has gotten enough rep though so let another region have the route maybe?

I think the consensus is that anything would be better than Pokemon Stadium 3. (Speak now or forever hold your peace.) (Aye!)

Okay, okay, we can put Phendrana Drifts and Magmoor Caverns in the Pokemon stage too.
The next game needs to do this for its stages. Can you imagine if Clock Town was played in the AC stag; Hell Prominence on the lava stage?

Most likely. That region has the most exposure, and is easily the most "legendary" of the four.

But yeah, different regions wouldn't happen. It would already take a tremendous amount of work to make a stage that incorporates most of the Pokemon world, so making multiple versions would be pretty far out...

Though now that I say that, I don't think it actually has to be a specific region. As long as there're no signs that say "Welcome to Viridian/Rustboro/Mauville City", then they could get by just making generic, all-encompassing archetypical towns and cities.

Small Hometown > Large First City (w/Gym) > Dark Cavern > Second Gym City > Marshlands > Cycling Road > Huge City with Shopping Mall > Cruise across the ocean on the S.S. Something > Third Gym City > Desert w/Sandstorm > Climbing a tall mountain > Mysterious Ruins (and maybe a Legendary Pokemon?) > Descending the mountain > Final Gym City > Victory Road > Pokemon League > Small Hometown...

Rinse and repeat! (Think of the ">"s as generic Route scenery (traveled dirt road, tall grass, some tree, etc.) to fill in the gaps between areas.)

Of course, a stage like that might take a good ten or twenty minutes to fully play through...BUT IT WOULD BE SO FREAKING AWESOME

EDIT - Pokemon Stadium 3 NOT for the win.

EDIT 2 - Yes, we really need Galaxy music in SSB4.

Oh, you speak of music? I was actually joking around with whoever I was quoting; I meant that the Magmoor Caverns could appear on a Pokemon stage. But it'd be nice to move some music selections around, yeah.

That's what I was thinking. (So...it's not really Kanto?) (It'd be really long, so that'd be a bit of a problem...perhaps some super-scrolling?)

Elite 4 place would be nice. The stage could be Final Destination esque, randomly having a theme when the fight starts depending on which member of the Elite 4's room.

Sorry for the double post but,

New Gen Pokemon Trainer (Mudkip, Grovyle, Blaziken) would be kickass.
So would Meowth as a playable character.

These have prolly already been said but I'm not reading 452 pages lol.

...paradox!

*I know what you mean though. Isn't the cocky buttface Blue though?
Huh? Are you talking about the manga character names?

Pokemon Trainer is Red, Gary is Green (Blue in the US), the female Pokemon Trainer is Blue (Green in the US), and then there's Yellow, an original character.

Bring back the Halberd and give Kirby and DDD their own stages. Actually, every character needs their own stage.

This makes sense...

...Until you think about the cloned or double characters. What stage is easily associated with Falco? Wolf? Zamus? Sheik? R.O.B.? Jiggs?

I think they should rather shoot for two stages per franchise, and maybe three if it's one of the bigger ones (i.e. Pokemon, Zelda, Mario).

10,000 bonus cookies for including Bomberman on that list.

All in all, looks pretty good.

Good list that pretty much covers most of the popular characters, MasterWarlord. It's a lot to discuss and get down and dirty with though....:urg:

My big complaint with it is...sure, those stages all fit, but would it be worth it to divest all that time and energy in making a stage out of all of them? I mean, is every one of them so iconic and inexorably linked to the character it's for?

No. And that, again, goes double for characters like Falco.

And then there's the question of: could each of those stage ideas actually make good stages? Fighting on the Pirate Homeworld would be...kind of boring, actually. Or at least, it sounds it.

Just make another stage for the cloned characters. For example, Star Fox franchise can have three stages (Fox, Falco, Wolf), and Ice Climbers can have one.

Not all characters need their own stage if there isn't anything that iconic to put there, or there's another stage choice that really jumps out. Characters like Falco will just get their series another stage added that doesn't really relate to them, but is their "home stage" none the less. The only real problem I have with this is that it'd mean Starfox would get 3 stages, when it has trouble getting 2. Just so long as there's as many stages from each series as there are characters with nothing that really contradicts the character (Bowser's home stage is Peach's castle lol!), it's fine.
