Apparently it's called a "little birdie" and it's Ridley reborn or something like that. Any ideas for new Metroid stages?
[COLLAPSE="Skytown Elysia"]Here is another one of my stage ideas!
Skytown Elysia from Metroid Prime 3. Why this and not Other M? Who said we won't have both? We have had two new Metroid stages since Melee, why can the same not be of Smash 4? So, I will go with the, as of now, last chapter in the Prime series. The stage would be two platforms designed around the architecture of the level on opposite sides. Separated by a giant chasm in between, the only way across is by the rail above. A platform will be suspended and will go back and forth. It would be a large stage, because both platforms will have to be big enough to fight on. The only gimmick is there will be gates along the rail that you have to hit to open, just as in the game.

[COLLAPSE="Geothermal Power Plant"]Today has been a rather slow day. Guess that is what happens over the weekend for people who have lives... Last time I was honored to be able to post a special guest concept, but this time it's time to return to the normal routine. Dealing with me. This is one of those stages that I'm 100% positive is going to happen, but let's still have fun with it anyways? Not need to get burned just because of that, am I right?
The Geothermal Powerplant from Other M, the signature locale in the game for both good and bad reasons... You fight Ridley in this stage and it would act as his Super Smash 4 homestage.
This stage isn't a walk off, obviously. On top of that it is fairly simple and straightforward. It will be a normal sized stage with the inclusion of two platforms on each side of the stage. These will be important as this stage still has a few tricks to it...
Notice that large pipe in the middle of the stage? Doesn't it look like the platform is able to travel up and down? Well that is correct, it can and it WILL! During set times in the match the stage will actually lower, traveling down the pipe towards the lower lava level. As it lowers the stage will spin, causing the platforms to circle above you. Thus making them unusable during the process of moving.
Once you reach the bottom your battle field will expand as outside of the platform you will see small isle of rock platforms in the lava. So just chill along the bottom until you return to the surface. A neat little cameo at the floor level will be that of the lava creature boss from Other M swimming along the pool of lava, occasionally raising it's eyes' to look at the players ahead.
Once it is time to return to the surface the lava will begin pouring from along the walls, covering the rock platforms and causing the stage to elevate. Be careful as the lava will still be pouring even as the stage rises. It will act as a barrier around the edges of the stage meaning during this phase players can only be star KO'd. Every one else will simply run into lava.
Not much else to it, we have our complimentary acid/lava hazard stage without it being something that is annoying and shoved upon us. A fair trade.

So, it has taken awhile to write this for an otherwise non-assuming stage. Still hope everyone enjoys it as usual.[/COLLAPSE]
And Norfair as the returning stage.
