Peach's Castle 64 is a downloadable stage in Super Smash Bros. Strife, returning from the original Super Smash Bros.. The stage is set on a series of unconnected platforms floating high above the castle of Princess Peach as it appeared in Super Mario 64 (which makes sense, as the Japanese version of the game names it ピーチ城上空, Pīchi-jō jōkū, meaning "Above Peach's Castle").
Stage Layout[]
Despite being named after Peach's Castle, the stage itself has very minimal reference to the location outside of it appearing in the background; notably, a tower stands in the centre of the stage's background which appears based on those found on the exterior of the castle, while two trees that take their appearance from Super Mario 64 stand beside it. The large tower protrudes from a small circular platform, which acts as a solid platform for players to fight on. Above it is an uneven platform seemingly made from various wires, which can also be stood on and acts as a semi-soft platform. The main platform also has a large protrusion from its bottom, and a long solid platform moves from one side to the other slowly through the centre of the stage.
Floating independently from the platform on which the tower stands are two right-angle triangles, located in the corners of the stage near the blast lines. These platforms can not be stood on, and primarily push items and falling fighters back towards the centre arena.
Hazards[]
A small bumper, which retains its appearance from the original Super Smash Bros., appears at the top of the stage, in its centre. The bumper moves left and right a short distance at random. Like its item counterpart, it knocks away fighters that touch it, making it a reliable KOing tool.
Additionally, while it causes no damage, the platform that travels in-between the bottom of the tower's base platform and its extension will extend all the way through, meaning that if a fighter remains stationary on it for too long they will be pushed off once its end reaches the centre of the stage.
