Classic ‘Pilotwings’ Stage Lands In ‘Smash Bros.’

Between the Smash Bros. Miiverse page and the official website, the developers have promised a screenshot every day leading up to the 2014 release of the game. Unless a new character is announced, it’s rare that the shot is anything worth mentioning, but every once in awhile, a new bread crumb will drop that will keep us salivating for more juicy tidbits.

Yesterday was one such day, with a teaser for a potential Pilotwings stage. No, we’re not talking Wuhu Island from Pilotwings Resort, or even the islands from the N64 launch title, Pilotwings 64. It looks like they’re going way back with a stage based on the original game for the SNES. You remember, the game that started as a flight sim and ended up as a rescue mission in a sudden twist that would make M. Night Shyamalan proud? They don’t make them like they used to.

This possible stage reveal was a pleasant surprise. What else will Smash Bros. have in store for us? Stay tuned to Geekscape and you’ll find out as soon as we do.
