This stage is loosely based on various elements of {{s|mariowiki|Princess Peach's Castle}} from ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario 64}}'', along with other elements from the game, such as: the bridges resemble the broken bridges that are in {{s|mariowiki|Cool, Cool, Mountain}}; and the design of the triangular-pyramidal platforms seen on the upper sides resemble platforms that have a similar circle pattern design, such as the starting platform of {{s|mariowiki|Bowser in the Dark World}}. Princess Peach's Castle can also be seen in the background, as well as, occasionally, {{s|mariowiki|Lakitu}}; however, Lakitu does not appear in ''SSB4''. | |||

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 ''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.
