I was hoping it would allow people to essentially create a remake of the original \u201cHyrule Castle\u201d stage, but that\u2019s not possible since the stage builder only supports single layers.<br \/>\n<a name=\"more\"><\/a>I came up with some nice designs for a \u201cremake\u201d they could make based on Twilight Princess that would be very similar but have still many differences (as \u201cGreen Greens\u201d and \u201cBrinstar\u201d essentially were of original stages). Basically, it takes place on the perimeter of Hyrule Castle as opposed to on top of it. In fact, one would battle on top of the main gate, and the castle itself would appear in its full glory in the background. The big difference would be Two towers instead of just one, and no go-inside-able thing on the right side. See if you can tell what I mean based on this screenshot of Twilight Princess I ripped off from the internet:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/patrickmauro.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/03\/hyrulecastle.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-53 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/patrickmauro.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/03\/hyrulecastle.jpg\" alt=\"hyrulecastle\" width=\"402\" height=\"240\" srcset=\"https:\/\/patrickmauro.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/03\/hyrulecastle.jpg 402w, https:\/\/patrickmauro.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/03\/hyrulecastle-300x179.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 402px) 100vw, 402px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Of course, one might want to scale down the castle in the background just a little bit so that it doesn\u2019t entirely dominate the entire screen.<\/p>\n<p>It could occasionally rain on this stage, which would reference A Link to the Past and Ocarina of Time but more specifically Twilight Princess. What could be done here is, music already in the game could be choosable for this stage, except for one music track which I would add: The Hyrule Castle theme from A Link to the Past. It\u2019s pretty much been in every game since then anyway, so it\u2019s going to be in the minds of anyone who plays Zelda anyhow. Otherwise, I\u2019d have the Main theme (like in the original SSB), the Hyrule field theme (a reference to OoT), and Midna\u2019s Desperation (A reference to TP). Probably something else, too, but I forgot.<\/p>\n<p>I also think not to at least have *one* song from Super Mario Galaxy is an insult, and, I know it came out soon before it, but, seriously, I think Nintendo should be able to access its own stuff, even if it IS in development. Though ideally I think there should be a stage of the Comet Observatory, featuring The comet observatory theme along with the Bowser Battle music, the Good Egg Galaxy music, and then throw in rainbow road (which is already in Brawl).<\/p>\n<p>In other news, I deleted the BCA review podcast, because it was stupid. Maybe some other time.<\/p>\n<p>And I know with Uru Live canceling, I\u2019m going to have to stop using images from Uru on my home page, or at least should, but I just can\u2019t help myself.<\/p>\n<p>Okay, bye.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So, March came, and I went.
