Super Smash Bros. Balloon Fight Stage Loops From One Side To The Other

Super Smash Bros.

During the Super Smash Bros. themed Nintendo Direct two weeks ago, we got a glimpse at multiple new stages for the Wii U and 3DS versions of the game that will be exclusive to each respective version. One of those such stages was an 8-bit themed Balloon Fight stage for the Nintendo 3DS version of the game.

While we saw a quick look at it then, Masahiro Sakurai has used today’s update to explain one of the mechanics we will find in the the stage.

Pic of the day. Here’s a special stage exclusive to the 3DS version, Balloon Fight!! The stage loops on the left and right sides so you can walk off one side and appear on the other.

This is a pretty common piece of classic games, so it will be interesting to see how it is utilized, especially with the edges of stages usually resulting in instant death in Super Smash Bros.
