A '''home stage''' is the stage that is most commonly associated with a character, by the game and/or by players. The subject of home [[stages]] can at times be somewhat confusing in the ''[[Super Smash Bros. (universe)|Super Smash Bros.]]'' series. In both ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', there are playable characters who do not have a stage belonging to their "[[universe]]". In addition, certain characters in SSBM have more than one stage. As secret characters are fought on stages specific to each of those characters, and SSBM's [[All-Star mode]] also gives each character a "home" stage, it's possible to determine which characters "own" which stages, even though the results may occasionally cause confusion.

In ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'', each of the eight [[starter character|starter characters]] has their own stage. Of the four secret characters, two - ([[Luigi (SSB)|Luigi]] and [[Jigglypuff (SSB)|Jigglypuff]]) - share their stages with the starter characters from their universe ([[Mario (SSB)|Mario]] and [[Pikachu (SSB)|Pikachu]], sharing [[Peach's Castle]] and [[Saffron City]], respectively). The remaining two characters have their home stages defined by where they are fought when they are unlocked. [[Captain Falcon (SSB)|Captain Falcon]] is fought at [[Samus (SSB)|Samus's]] [[Planet Zebes]], while [[Ness (SSB)|Ness]] is unlocked by defeating him at [[Kirby (SSB)|Kirby's]] [[Dream Land|Dream Land]] stage. Thus, Captain Falcon and Ness may be considered to have these stages as their home stages. There is another stage from the Mario series, [[Mushroom Kingdom (SSB)|Mushroom Kingdom]], which is sometimes considered as Luigi's stage, as well as Mario's.

The following stages are used for characters in [[Classic Mode]]. Unlike in previous games, familiar stages also act as home stages, as some of these familiar stages are the only stages available for their respective universes. Characters from series without a stage instead use stages from series with no characters such as [[Living Room]].

Revision as of 07:31, 14 September 2015

A home stage is the stage that is most commonly associated with a character, by the game and/or by players. The subject of home stages can at times be somewhat confusing in the Super Smash Bros. series. In both Super Smash Bros. and Super Smash Bros. Melee, there are playable characters who do not have a stage belonging to their "universe". In addition, certain characters in SSBM have more than one stage. As secret characters are fought on stages specific to each of those characters, and SSBM's All-Star mode also gives each character a "home" stage, it's possible to determine which characters "own" which stages, even though the results may occasionally cause confusion.

Super Smash Bros.

In Super Smash Bros., each of the eight starter characters has their own stage. Of the four secret characters, two - (Luigi and Jigglypuff) - share their stages with the starter characters from their universe (Mario and Pikachu, sharing Peach's Castle and Saffron City, respectively). The remaining two characters have their home stages defined by where they are fought when they are unlocked. Captain Falcon is fought at Samus's Planet Zebes, while Ness is unlocked by defeating him at Kirby's Dream Land stage. Thus, Captain Falcon and Ness may be considered to have these stages as their home stages. There is another stage from the Mario series, Mushroom Kingdom, which is sometimes considered as Luigi's stage, as well as Mario's.

In Super Smash Bros. Melee, the situation is somewhat more complicated. While secret characters all have a stage of their own for the purpose of unlocking them, all characters have a stage associated with them for the purposes of All-Star Mode.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, stages and characters are not matched one-to-one like they are in Melee. What follows is a list of home stages based on where characters are fought in Classic Mode and All-Star Mode, almost always based on a character's universe.

As was the case with the Past Stages in Melee, stages returning from that game are never seen in Classic or All-Star Mode. This leads to the fact that Halberd is always seen in Classic Mode, no matter what.

Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS

The following stages are used for characters in Classic Mode. Unlike in previous games, familiar stages also act as home stages, as some of these familiar stages are the only stages available for their respective universes. Characters from series without a stage instead use stages from series with no characters such as Living Room.

Super Smash Bros. for Wii U

The only series with a playable character in for Wii U not to have a stage is once again the R.O.B. series. In this game, R.O.B. exclusively uses the Wrecking Crew stage, as Wrecking Crew has no playable character and is not used as a Mario stage despite being from a Mario sub-series.

Home advantage

There is no clear or consistent benefit to a character fighting on his "home stage." In some cases it may be to a character's disadvantage to be fighting on his home stage, for example Ness is unable to use his recovery move when knocked between buildings in Fourside. In SSBB, Donkey Kong's Final Smash makes him immobile; if used on Rumble Falls, a scrolling stage, it will possibly result in a self-destruct, but when he is using his airborne, he moves along with the stage. Ness and Lucas's PK Starstorm is generally poor in New Pork City, due to the size and the camera zooming out, allowing for opponents to see and easily evade most of the damage.

However, in contrast, some stages do offer advantages to some characters. For example, Zelda's Final Smash is much easier to use, and harder to dodge on the Bridge of Eldin (Link also has an advantage since the left and right blast lines are walk-offs, and the lower blast line is close to the stage and is not always present, minimizing the need for recovery, which Link is very poor at; similarly, the lower blast line of Pirate Ship is usually underwater, also helping Link's recovery there). Also on Summit, all the other characters slide around, except the Ice Climbers who are the same as if they were on any other field, although, like other characters, they are still unable to grab onto the ledge.

On Pokémon Stadium 2, when used from the center, Jigglypuff's Final Smash, Puff Up covers the whole stage, and is almost unavoidable.
