It should also be noted that most (if not all) of these stages are smaller compared to the characters than they were in ''Melee'', possibly due to the character models being larger in order to provide more detail. Also, some of the music sounds slightly different than it did in ''Melee''. Finally, the {{SSBB|Pokémon Trainer}} gains platforms in the background.

==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''==
Unlike in ''Melee'' and ''Brawl'', a majority of the playable stages in these games are returning stages. Because of this, they are grouped with the new stages, and no meaningful distinction is made between the two. In ''Smash 4'', past stages can be used as [[home stage]]s in [[All-Star Mode]] (and [[Classic Mode]] in {{for3ds}}), while the concept is absent altogether in ''Ultimate''.
Known as '''Familiar Stages''' this time around, the selection of returning stages in ''Super Smash Bros. 4'' differs depending on the version. This is the first time that returning stages aren't solely from the directly-preceding game, although the selection is still primarily made up of ''Brawl'' stages, with all ''Melee''-originating stages having also made ''Brawl'' appearances. Unlike in previous games, returning stages appear in both the [[Classic Mode (SSB4-Wii U)|Wii U]] and [[Classic Mode (SSB4-3DS)|3DS]] versions of Classic Mode, as some of them are the only stages representing their respective [[universe]]s. Like ''Melee'' and unlike ''Brawl'', these stages appear with normal stages, rather than on a separate page. However, unlike ''Melee'', which gave the stages their own section at the bottom, these stages are merged right in with the normal stages, possibly because there are so many.
 
Like [[Temple]], some of the textures on the 64 stages are touched up slightly, but in general most of the original look is retained. Also, the ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' stages have '(64)' at the end of the title.

The editor who added this tag believes this page should be deleted for the following reason:
"returning fighters are listed as a subsection on the main fighter page. I believe the same for returning stages. Almost 100% of this page's info is already on stage."
If you disagree with this page's deletion, please explain why on its talk page.
Feel free to edit this page, but it must not be blanked, and this notice must not be removed until the discussion is closed.
Hyrule temple from Brawl
Temple, as it appears as a Past Stage in Brawl.

Past Stages is one of multiple designations given to stages returning from previous installments in the Super Smash Bros. series.

In Super Smash Bros. Melee

In Melee, three Past Stages were available. They are replicas of their Super Smash Bros. counterparts, complete with music and backgrounds. All of these stages must be unlocked, unlike in the original game. The stages also seem to be slightly larger in size than before.

From Super Smash Bros.

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl

In Brawl, they are referred to as Melee Stages, as only stages originating from Melee reappear. As a result, this makes Brawl the only game where stages from the first Smash Bros. do not appear. These stages now utilize the functions of My Music, like most stages in Brawl. According to the DOJO!!, the stages are arranged so the player can get one from each game world.[1] This turned out to mean each universe that was represented in the original game, all of which had multiple stages in Melee. Unlike the Past Stages of Melee, some Melee Stages have had minor edits (which are listed below), while aesthetically remaining largely the same as Melee.

Changes in Super Smash Bros. Melee stages

Stage

Availability

Changes

Big Blue Unlockable Floating platforms and other airborne items except bumpers don't fly away with the stage.
Brinstar Starter Stronger acid.
Corneria Starter New sound effects for the flying Arwings and Wolfens, blasts from the Arwings and Wolfens no longer KO but still deal damage.
Green Greens Unlockable Bomb blocks have much more knockback, making it able to KO at low damage percentages. All three block columns in each side must now fill to the top in order to halt the dropping blocks for that side, rather than just one.
Jungle Japes Unlockable Characters can now swim in the river, but it will still carry them off-screen; Klaptraps have different properties.
Pokémon Stadium Unlockable Fireworks in the background look different, the windmill's platforms in the water stage are no longer pass-through, new sound effect from Pokémon Stadium 2 can be heard when the stage is changing.
Rainbow Cruise Starter Floating items like Party Balls no longer fly offscreen, characters can no longer jump through the donut lifts.
Temple Starter Edge near lowest platform can no longer be grabbed.
Onett Starter Warning sign when a car is approaching is much smaller and can hardly be seen, right edge of the roof on the building on the left can not be grabbed, hospital in the background has had its red cross removed, the blue house's roof has a small area on the sides where players cannot jump over, cars are much weaker though they can still damage the player.
Yoshi's Island Starter Reduced size.

It should also be noted that most (if not all) of these stages are smaller compared to the characters than they were in Melee, possibly due to the character models being larger in order to provide more detail. Also, some of the music sounds slightly different than it did in Melee. Finally, the Pokémon Trainer gains platforms in the background.

In Super Smash Bros. 4

Known as Familiar Stages this time around, the selection of returning stages in Super Smash Bros. 4 differs depending on the version. This is the first time that returning stages aren't solely from the directly-preceding game, although the selection is still primarily made up of Brawl stages, with all Melee-originating stages having also made Brawl appearances. Unlike in previous games, returning stages appear in both the Wii U and 3DS versions of Classic Mode, as some of them are the only stages representing their respective universes. Like Melee and unlike Brawl, these stages appear with normal stages, rather than on a separate page. However, unlike Melee, which gave the stages their own section at the bottom, these stages are merged right in with the normal stages, possibly because there are so many.

Like Temple, some of the textures on the 64 stages are touched up slightly, but in general most of the original look is retained. Also, the Super Smash Bros. stages have '(64)' at the end of the title.

In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

Nearly every stage from previous games make their return in Ultimate. This time around, stages from every game preceding it make their appearance, from the original Super Smash Bros. to Super Smash Bros. 4. All past stages, most noticeably those from Melee, Brawl, and 3DS receive a visual update, though stages from the first game retain their primitive polygonal aesthetic, likely due to nostalgia reasons. Every stage also comes with a Battlefield and Ω form.

The only playable stages to not return are Planet Zebes, Sector Z, Mushroom Kingdom (SSBM), Poké Floats, Mute City (SSBM), Icicle Mountain, Flat Zone, the 1-2 variant of Mushroomy Kingdom, Rumble Falls, Flat Zone 2, Pictochat, Rainbow Road, the black and white variant of Dream Land GB, Pac-Maze, Jungle Hijinxs, Pyrosphere, Woolly World, Orbital Gate Assault, Miiverse, and previous variants of Battlefield, Big Battlefield, and Final Destination. Additionally, none of the single-player-only stages from past games are present either.
