Even among the Melee stages, there are a few hidden ones. Here I’d like to do a quick rundown of four such venues.

Jungle Japes



Here’s Cranky Kong’s shack and outhouse.



Fierce rushing waters flow beneath the platforms!

Green Greens



This stage is just hanging in space like some floating island.



Whispy Woods and the trademark stacking blocks made it here intact.

Pokémon Stadium



Pokémon Stadium 2 is available in Brawl but we’ve brought back the original as well.

Just like the newer iteration of this stage, Melee Pokémon Stadium’s terrain transforms into four different types.



Fire Type: It calls to mind the charred aftermath of a volcanic eruption.



Water Type: The real star of this terrain is probably the waterwheel.



Rock Type: The towering mass of rock on the left side of the screen is this terrain’s distinguishing feature.



Lastly, here’s the Grass Type. This one’s comparatively simple in its structure.

HOW TO UNLOCK

Add the above four types to the additional four available in the Pokémon Stadium 2 stage and you’ve got a total of 8 different elemental terrain types to fight in.

Big Blue



This unique stage has a real sense of breakneck speed to it.

How to Unlock

The Melee stages available in Brawl are arranged so that you get one from each game world.

You can use the My Music feature on Melee stages, too.

In the previous Smash Bros., the background music for each stage had the same name as the stage regardless of the song’s source, so you may find yourself feeling a bit like "Huh?" when viewing just the song titles for some of the music on these stages. (EarthBound-related music is the exception to this rule.)

Additionally, the My Music feature for these Melee stages allows you to include some secret songs and music from other stages from that game world in your mixes! Collect all the songs and try it out for yourself.

Not that it matters to anyone but I think this is the first time I guessed an update right. Though I guess since the choices are narrowed down thats not much to be proud of...I mean there was only 1 of 3 possibilities it could have been.

Sakurai doesn't know the difference between a windmill and a waterwheel.

I like having the Pokemon Stadium and Big Blue back, not so much with Green greens and Jungle Japes. They were some of my least favorite stages in Melee.

Hooray for Big Blue! Sakurai truly has impeccable taste for stages.

Now, the fight can truly be said to be ON.

EDIT: Hey Retro, nice avatar. You're doing a "Hmmm..." and I'm "OMGJECTION!"

Big Blue! HELL YEAH!!!


Then why did he choose the WORST 64 stages to be put in Melee?

But there were no bad stages from N64 so that statement is null.

Fixed.

Your honor, Masamune is clearly and unequivocably mistaken!

One of the first Stage Builder projects I did was make an N64 Hyrule Castle stage. I think I'm fairly close

Hm, good idea Vorpal. Now I'm gonna have to try that too, I hope I have enough parts to actually do it though.

EDIT: Speaking of the stage builder though, I haven't gotten the option of getting stages online get.

HYRULE CASTLE AND THAT POKÉMON STAGE


I was gonna do that too.
Too bad there'll be no tornadoes, but it'll have to do.

Fixed.

Masamune, are you admitting that your face is wrong?

WarioFan said it, not me!

Why am I doing it with quotes when I can just edit posts?
