'''Town and City''' ({{ja|村と街|Mura to Machi}}, ''Village and City'') is a stage in {{forwiiu}} and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. True to its name, the stage's setting alternates between the town and city from ''{{s|nookipedia|Animal Crossing: City Folk}}''. Isabelle is fought here for her unlocking battle in ''Ultimate''.

The stage is similar in layout to [[Smashville]], the previous ''Animal Crossing'' stage. There is a single main platform which has different smaller platforms above it depending on its location. The main platform will travel between town and city background areas. In the town section, three small platforms appear above the main one, appearing over the left, middle, and right of the stage; in the city section, there are only two, appearing over the left and right sides. These platforms all move slightly and fly away when the stage transitions. The stage stays at each background area for about 30 seconds before taking about 15 seconds to transition to the other.

In ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'', the [[Ω form]] has the main platform of the normal form increased in length slightly to match [[Final_Destination_(SSB4)|Final Destination]], and the smaller moving platforms, balloons, and background characters are gone. The stage still transitions between the town and city areas.

In ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', the Ω form and [[Battlefield form]] are similar to ''SSB4'''s Ω form; however, the main platform is resized and reshaped to match {{SSBU|Final Destination}} and {{SSBU|Battlefield}}, respectively. The three [[soft platform]]s of the Battlefield form are based on the ones in the normal form.

With hazards off in ''Ultimate'', the three soft platforms in the Town phase and the two soft platforms in the City phase still appear, but they do not move back and forth, only moving offscreen when the main platform moves between locations.

This stage originates from ''{{s|nookipedia|Animal Crossing: City Folk}}'' (''Animal Crossing: Let's Go to the City'' in the PAL region). The game's most prominent new feature was the ability for the player to take a bus to the city, which is home to various shops, services, and events.

Each ''[[nookipedia:Animal Crossing (series)|Animal Crossing]]'' game is mostly set in a small town. A typical town can be seen in the background of this stage and retains almost everything that is present in a town in the ''Animal Crossing'' series, such as {{s|nookipedia|tree}}s, {{s|nookipedia|rock}}s, {{s|nookipedia|flower}}s, a {{s|nookipedia|river}} with {{s|nookipedia|bridges}}, and a {{s|nookipedia|waterfall}} along with various buildings:

Town and City is a universally legal stage, either as a starter or counterpick in ''Smash 4'' rulesets, due to its lack of hazards and the only gimmick of the stage being the platform cycling. Despite the stage's size, every blast line is actually slightly closer to the stage in comparison to ''Smash 4''{{'}}s other legal stages, and the first cycle of soft platforms includes a middle platform that shifts vertically, which makes it a good stage for characters with strong vertical finishers, such as {{SSB4|Ryu}} and {{SSB4|Meta Knight}}. The second cycle of soft platforms can also facilitate earlier KOs, since they can move closer to the side blast lines, and both transitions can be used as a last ditch effort for a [[Sacrificial KO]] if a grab is landed. The stage is still legal despite the fatal moving platforms.

''Get a bird's-eye view of the town and city from Animal Crossing: City Folk as you fight on a platform overhead. Your Wii U console's clock dictates the time of day and which animals and places appear. Don't get too distracted by all that, though, because the platform itself is pretty simple-perfect for a battle of skill!''

*Added 8-player mode version of the stage and its Ω form.

*Not counting the K.K. Slider songs, Town and City is the only stage in ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'' whose musical selection is composed entirely of new remixes.

*{{SSBU|Villager}} is the only character to travel to Town and City in his/her Classic Mode route.

**This is also the only ''Animal Crossing'' stage that is not used in more than one Classic Mode route.

*In ''Ultimate'', Celeste's model is glitched; what should be transparent parts of her eyebrows are left visible, leaving white spots at their tips. This is unique to Town and City, and does not occur on [[Smashville]].
