(Undid edit by CanvasK: No, I don't think you can conclude that this is a mistake, that's too speculative. Mention of Smash 4 isn't really relevant if they don't follow the camera in that game, since the way the trivia was worded before only states they follow the camera in Ultimate, which is accurate.)

In ''Smash 64'', for a long period according to the old [[Tournament legal (SSB)|American ruleset]], Peach's Castle was usually considered a [[counterpick stage]] in singles. This is because of the inability to grab the [[edge]]s, meaning that some characters can be [[gimp]]ed or [[edgeguard]]ed much easier than usual, and because of the [[Bumper]] hazard and angled platforms on the side of the stage that can prevent [[KO]] moves that would have otherwise KO'd. However, the Bumper can be used for various unique combos, and can also be used by characters such as {{SSB|Pikachu}} to escape [[pressure]]. The stage is often [[counterpick]]ed by {{SSB|Jigglypuff}} and {{SSB|Kirby}} players and the lack of edges that can be grabbed serves as a disadvantage to characters such as {{SSB|Link}} and {{SSB|Captain Falcon}}. However, most recently the stage was banned. In [[doubles]] tournaments, the stage is usually banned, due to the listed reasons above along with the fact that the stage is too small.

In the [[Tournament legal (DSB)|Japanese ruleset]], the stage is always [[banned stage|banned]] in all formats as is every other stage except for {{SSB|Dream Land}}, due to the reasons mentioned above.

===''Super Smash Bros. 4''===
Unlike in ''SSB'', Peach's Castle has been banned since launch. Alongside the great advantage the stage provides some characters compared to others, there are also more legal stages to not consider the stage as potentially legal.
===''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''===
Peach's Castle remains banned in ''Ultimate'' for the same reasons as ''Smash 4''. There are also now even more stages, further distancing it as potentially legal.
