Talk:Poké Floats

How the heck is this a stage suitable for competive play? I'll never get what runs through people's heads.

-Random Man

While I'm not an expert, I think the key here is that nothing is random. Each float appears at a predictable time in a predictable place. The movement also makes it much more difficult to do things like camp, but unlike other scrolling stages, you aren't always on the move. In addition, there are no (damaging) hazards.

Why does this page say that it is banned in tournament play but it is listed as counter pick in "Tournament_legal_(SSBM)" and is not listed on the banned stage page, someone please fix this.

Refrence

There is an Unown movie (I forgot what it is called) and there are a few seances in it where unown fly every where. Refrence???? 209.30.147.242 13:33, March 20, 2010 (UTC) -chihuahuabeta

Origin

...is clearly the IRL parade balloons. Why the expletive would we take that down? There's no other thing that could have even inspired it. Miles (talk) 02:12, September 14, 2010 (UTC)

While I can't honestly say that it's not speculation, I also think it should stay. The first reason is as Miles said, "There's no other thing that could have even inspired it" (considering that we can't agree if it was inspired by the anime OR the parade). Even I was speculative when I first saw the video, but I figured it was the closest thing that could've inspired the stage. Also, nothing like this has happened in the games, so that doesn't really give us much to look at when trying to figure out where it came from. Unknown the Hedgehog 02:22, September 14, 2010 (UTC)

It is speculation, which does not belong on the Wiki in any way, shape, or form. I find it quite ridiculous to believe that the Macy parade influenced Poke Floats. You know, the idea of giant balloons was conjured before the Macy parade came into existence and it is not the only thing that has giant balloons. Can't you guys accept the fact that this stage is an original creation created for Melee? Not every damn thing in Smash Bros. has to be influenced from something else, much less some IRL parade.
