Norfair is a stage in Super Smash Bros. Brawl based on the Metroid series. It re-appeared in the Wii U version of Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U.

Stage Elements[]

The stage is made of 5 platforms with the center platform being the lowest and outer platforms being highest.

Lava is a regular hazard. In the background, lava regularly spews into foreground dealing light damage when in contact. Other times, the lava rises up to the point that only the top platforms are safe. Lava can come from the side too being able to stretch so far that only one platform is completely safe. Occasionally, there is a lava wave that summons a safe point on one of the platforms. Players must open its doors and get inside before the lava wave hits. Otherwise, the lava can deal massive damage unless they dodge perfectly.

In the 8-player version, all lava hazards are removed.

Origin[]

Norfair is an underground segment of Planet Zebes that is engulfed in flames. The temperature is so intense that Samus, in the video games, needed to obtain a special suit so that she could withstand it. Not too many references to the games are made within this level, despite the fact that lava is nearly everywhere, oftentimes disrupting the fight.
