Town and City

A stage based on Animal Crossing: City Folk. The platforms go back and forth between the town and... errmm...the city. Depending on the actual time, the stage switches between day and night. The visitors are also different each time. Town and City (, Village and City) is a stage in and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. True to its name, the stage's setting alternates between the town and city from . Isabelle is fought here for her unlocking battle in Ultimate.

Stage overview
The stage is similar in layout to Smashville, the previous Animal Crossing stage. There is a single main platform that has different smaller platforms above it depending on its location. The main platform will travel between town and city background areas. In the town section, three small platforms appear above the main one, appearing over the left, middle, and right of the stage; in the city section, there are only two, appearing over the left and right sides. These platforms all move slightly and fly away when the stage transitions. The stage stays at each background area for about 30 seconds before taking about 15 seconds to transition to the other.

Like Smashville, the stage's appearance changes for the daytime, dusk, nighttime, and dawn. This is determined by the console's internal clock. K.K. Slider performs music on Saturday nights from 8:00 PM to 12:00 AM. He only appears in the background for the town section of the stage, but the music still continues when the platform is in the city. As with Smashville, background characters pick "favorite" fighters at random and act accordingly depending on their performance in the match. Sometimes, The Roost will appear just behind the main platform, with the background characters receiving coffee from Brewster.

Ω forms and Battlefield form
In Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, the Ω form has the main platform of the normal form increased in length slightly to match. The smaller moving platforms, balloons, and background characters are absent, but the stage still transitions between the town and city areas.

In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, the Ω form and Battlefield form are similar to SSB4's Ω form; however, the main platform is resized and reshaped to match and, respectively. The three soft platforms of the Battlefield form are based on the ones in the normal form.

Hazards Off
With hazards off in Ultimate, balloons no longer appear, and the middle soft platform of the Town form and two soft platforms of the City form only move when they go offscreen, no longer staying in motion constantly during the match.

Background characters
Like Smashville, Town and City features numerous background characters. Some characters only appear at in a certain part of the stage, or at certain times of day.

Origin
This stage originates from  (Animal Crossing: Let's Go to the City in the PAL region). The game's most prominent new feature was the ability for the player to take a bus to the city, which is home to various shops, services, and events.

Each  game is mostly set in a small town. A typical town can be seen in the background of this stage and retains almost everything that is present in a town in the Animal Crossing series, such as s, s, s, a with, and a  along with various buildings:

In the background, a bus station is by the Town Gate, and there a bus sign on the same platform as the arena itself. The overall design of the city in this stage is also retained, including various buildings:

Tournament legality
Town and City is a universally legal stage, either as a starter or counterpick in Smash 4 rulesets, due to its lack of hazards and the only gimmick of the stage being the platform cycling. Despite the stage's size, every blast line is actually slightly closer to the stage in comparison to Smash 4's other legal stages, and the first cycle of soft platforms includes a middle platform that shifts vertically, which makes it a good stage for characters with strong vertical finishers, such as and. The second cycle of soft platforms can also facilitate earlier KOs, since they can move closer to the side blast lines, and both transitions can be used as a last ditch effort for a sacrificial KO if a grab is landed. The stage is still legal despite the fatal moving platforms.

Town and City returns in Ultimate and is again a universally legal stage for the same reasons as Smash 4. The ability to turn stage hazards off removes the dangers caused by the moving platforms, though some tournaments leave stage hazards on due to not finding the dangers to detrimental to competitive play.

Trivia

 * In addition to the time of day changing with the console's clock, which businesses are open in the city are also determined in this way. However, the opening hours in Town and City do not always line up with the opening hours in City Folk. For example, GracieGrace and Shampoodle will be open until 11pm, but in City Folk they close at 9pm. The Auction House is accurately portrayed as being open all day.
 * Not counting the K.K. Slider songs, Town and City is the only stage in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U whose musical selection is composed entirely of new remixes.
 * If a Metal Box is broken on this stage, the metallic texture will always have the daytime reflection, even if the stage is played at night.
 * In Ultimate, Celeste's model is incorrect; what should be transparent parts of her eyebrows are left visible, leaving white spots at their tips. This is unique to Town and City, and does not occur on Smashville.
 * In Ultimate, the following Assist Trophies cannot appear on this stage: Kapp'n (due to being a stage element), Color TV-Game 15, Dr. Kawashima and the Ghosts.
