Nintendo Wii Media | Smash Update: Melee Stages - Part 2

By Jorge Ba-oh 07.01.2008 35

The Smash Updates on the Smash Bros Dojo resume with the sweet inclusion of some of the GameCube's outing's best levels!

There was already an entry detailing how we've brought back some of the stages from Super Smash Bros. Melee...

So here are some more stages that can also be played in Super Smash Bros. Brawl!

Yoshi's Island

The steep slopes on either side are its defining characteristic.

That central platform screams "accident!"

Corneria

Battle atop the Great Fox!

Of course, Arwings come flying in, too.

Onett

The offensive and defensive struggles on the buildings of Onett return!

Whoa, whoa, whoa! Watch out for cars.

Brinstar

It's the dreaded, legendary ocean of acid!

The rising and falling ocean of acid changes the field of play greatly.

Rainbow Ride

Tour the course in this forced scrolling stage.

The boat sinks mid-trip and you embark on a roundabout tour!

This is amazing! Is this a lavish feast or what? I can tell you that for everyone working on this game, the amount of content has been surprising to say the least.

Be sure to stick with C3 for updates.

Cross out Onett and I am otherwise happy with the list. Has Hyrule Temple been confirmed in the other update?

Yeah, it has.

Yeah onett is a bad choice. Whats the name of Ness' other level? Think that would have been a better choice.

the other level was "Fourside" But.. i think fourside would have been cooler if it turned into "MoonSide" AkA "Demoon Si" as some of the characters would say, moon side is a freaky inverted Fourside with very odd things (also No is Yes and Yes is No. Do you understand? No? Good Smilie)

I don't really like (or dislike) that level, but theres no loss in having more levels Smilie

They should bring all the melee levels over - then it'll be like 2 games in 1 Smilie

Avoid Games Like the Plague, productivity++

and all the N64 ones too.Smilie

Has Sakurai/anyone actually said when these updates will stop? I thought maybe just before Japanese launch, but now I'm not too sure.Smilie

Oh yeah Fourside I can never remember the name of Ness' other level for some reason. I guess Sakurai couldn't either which is why he didn't show it in the update.

Wait... then wouldn't that mean No? BadSmilie

Why does everyone hate Onett? I love Onett! o.0;

For me, this makes Ness' chances of being in Brawl rise slightly.

And this was a great update, personally I don't want many more Melee stages though! We need SOME room for new stages!

And there had better be SOME N64 stages! Smilie

Onett > Fourside. Fourside is a super clumsy version of Saffron City Smilie

PleaseSmilie... Onett is a total noob level when compared to Fourside. The only danger in the level is the cars. I admit it's fun to whoop on someone and leave them for roadkill, but Fourside has the whole danger of falling to your death. Then theres the different platforms to fight on. I see Onett better for 1 on 1 matches and Fourside holding space for 4 players yet is small enough for 2 because of all the platforms.

In the game.. only the meanings of Yes and No were switched... Smilie one of the people tried to explain it to Ness... but he got confused. Here is the pick of the confused man

I want some N64 ones. I LOVED the Hyrule castle one.
And the pok

w00t! RANEBO REID!!!!!!!!!!!11one
Hopefully they'll add the whistling to the stage music!

It requires great courage to look at oneself honestly, and forge one's own path.


WHERE THE HELL IS MY BIG BLUE!!!!!!????
But seriously where is it? If god were a smash bros stage he would be Big Blue.

I like alll of em.

I hate Brinstar as much as I hate Metroid. Love the others though.

So that means you absolutely love it... right?

And Hyrule Castle 64 is an awesome stage, I want that one more than anything.

Does every stage HAVE to have a danger? Personally I find Onett a fun stage with all the houses and falling awnings Smilie

And the YELLOW CARS.

That could actually be a really fun game to play on friend matches. Set one of your taunts to say "YELLOW CAR!" And the first person to say it gets a free hit on everyone Smilie

Well actually Metroid is one of the series I hate the most among all the games I've had the opportunity to play. No doubt that it has plenty of qualities and that it has an interesting gameplay/background/whatever you want but I just can't stand it Smilie.

( Edited on 08.01.2008 00:43 by sknot )

Do you hate the 2D games? or the 3D games, or both?

If you hate the 3D ones I can understand. Smilie

But not the 2D ones. They're even better than Frosties. Greater than great.

I dunno why they had to chuck Brinstar in there since Norfair seems pretty identical.

Fair statement, it is a very high calibre series, just not for everyone. I personally love it, 2D and 3D equally which I can't say for any other series.

I want some N64 ones. I LOVED the Hyrule castle one.

Yeah I never understood why they left that one out in Melee, it was easily the best.

Onett...dear god I hate that stage.

Actually I get to figh 4-on-4 matches on Onett.

You heard it! 4-on-4 matches. Have you ever fought against a team of Ice Climbers which seems to be your team as well?

Onett is a big...err, I mean great place to do this kind of matches. Also "Pok

What was the name of the rotating Metroid level in SSBM? I liked that one a lot. And both of the F-Zero levels were good. Oh, and I liked Peach's castle, too.

I'm for every smash bros. level being put in the game Smilie

That is what I'm talking about!Smilie Well, as long as they don't sacrifice any amount of new stages, better be as much/more than there were in Melee.
