Magicant
Magicant is an unlockable stage in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS, based on the area from Mother of the same name. The stage is automatically unlocked upon unlocking Ness.
The stage takes place on three large pink cloud platforms with a small one on below the middle platform. The main feature of this stage are the Flying Men that appear from the houses on the stage. Hitting one of the Flying Men will turn it into a non-playable assistant that attacks the opponents. Once the Flying Man is defeated, a gravestone will pop up near their house, indicating their death, just like in the Mother games. Only five appear at max; once the fifth Flying Man is defeated, they will stop spawning. Occasionally, the Dungeon Man from EarthBound will walk along the bottom of the stage, with his head serving as an extra platform.
Trees from Mother appear and can serve as an extra platform while the octopus statue from Mother 2 can serve as both a shield and an extra platform. Standing on the octopus statue will cause it to sink into the clouds and eventually drop below the stage. Mobile Sprouts and tomatoes from EarthBound appear on the stage as well. The Mobile Sprouts serve as moving platforms while the tomatoes can be destroyed by attacking them. The Sky Runner from EarthBound also appears on a random part of the stage, serving as an extra platform until it flies off.
Another feature of this stage are the dimensional rifts in the background depicting scenes from Mother and EarthBound. These scenes include:
- Ninten meeting Lloyd on top of Twinkle Elementary School
- Ninten outside with his dog, Mick
- Ness and Paula in the zombified Threed
- Ness and his friends in the seventh sanctuary, Lumine Hall
- Ness and his friends in Saturn Valley after Dr. Andonuts completed the Phase Distorter 3
The Final Destination version of the stage is just one giant cloud serving as the platform. Although the stage hazards do not appear in this mode, the dimensional rifts in the background still occur.
