The Online Practice Stage (informally known by other names, such as the "Wi-Fi Waiting Room" or the "Waiting Room") is a non-selectable stage in Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Super Smash Bros. 4. It was played when a player waited for a Wi-Fi match to begin. The player was given the opportunity to practice for the match on Sandbag while they waited for opponents.

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl

The stage is completely flat with a pair of edges on each side, similar to a larger Final Destination. The stage also has its own unique, short music track that can be heard in the Sound Test. When Sandbag touches the bottom or side blast lines of the stage, or is eaten, it reappears in the center.

With the shutdown of the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection on 20 May 2014, it became impossible to access the stage without hacking. Althrough, the track music can be heard in the main menu and in the sound test of Super Smash Bros. for Wii U.

Use in hacks

Via hacking, the stage can be used in Versus Mode, and various Brawl mods allow it to be chosen on the stage select screen - whether as its own separate stage as in Balanced Brawl, or replacing an unpopular stage such as New Pork City as in Brawl-. These hacks generally do not remove Sandbag, as it can act as a dynamic barrier to some attacks.

Shadow error

When under the stage, the shadow of the character will still appear on the stage itself. The player can usually only see the shadow, however, when the Sandbag has been launched off the top of the screen.

In Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS

The stage's shape bares a resemblance to that of Battlefield's Ω form, but has a differing design. The background, like in Brawl, is white and featureless.

In Super Smash Bros. for Wii U

This stage, unlike the 3DS version, is more rectangle-like, similar to most Ω stages. The stage's design, however, is similar to that of the Miiverse stage, albeit without platforms and without the messages in the background. The stage's background has white hexagons all around it, and will occasionally light up in a wave-like pattern.
