(19) Onett (Melee/Brawl) vs. (15) Jungle Japes (Melee/Brawl)
(29) Brinstar Depths (Melee) vs. (58) Green Hill Zone (Brawl)

(32) Fourside (Melee) vs. (37) Mushroomy Kingdom (Brawl)
(46) Pokemon Stadium 2 (Brawl) vs. (44) Halberd (Brawl)

1.) I actually was going to vote for Onett but then I changed it literally while writing this post. Onett was pretty cool and colorful but the car eventually annoyed me and I hated getting people stuck in the town area. Jungle Japes is a pretty great standard-style level and the rushing water is a big risk. Perhaps my favorite Donkey Kong level?...

2.) Here too I almost voted against what I have. I really do love Green Hill Zone, but this Brinstar Depths level is the one which rotates and has almost two levels in one. It was really interesting and I am kinda curious why they haven't done another like it... unless I'm forgetting something.

3.) Fourside was pretty neat. Always made me feel like I was in a Spiderman game though, lol. Still, it's better than Mushroomy Kingdom which may not have been so bad if it weren't for the drab color pallet.

4.) This was a tough one for me. I really like Halberd but Pokemon Stadium deserves more time in this poll. It's very creative and fun and I liked the second rounds of stage morphs.

Lots of meh in this bracket. Jungle Japes and Mushroomy Kingdom are two of my least favorites. I would take both the choices in Brinstar Depths vs. Green Hill Zone over any of the rest.

(46) Pokemon Stadium 2 (Brawl) vs. (44) Halberd (Brawl)

It was hard to vote against Onett, but I really like Jungle Japes!
I am one of the few who loves Green Hill Zone.
Fourside is a great stage. I miss it. Silly Mushroomy Kingdom had to come along and infest the 3DS game, too. Boo.
I chose Pokemon Stadium 2, even though I much prefer the first. Something about the Halberd is "meh" to me.

@ploot

For real! 3D World is a WAYYYYY better Mario scrolling level. Probably my favorite ever of that type.

(19) Onett (Melee/Brawl) vs. (15) Jungle Japes (Melee/Brawl)
(29) Brinstar Depths (Melee) vs. (58) Green Hill Zone (Brawl)

(46) Pokemon Stadium 2 (Brawl) vs. (44) Halberd (Brawl)

I like Jungle Japes, but Onett is a more memorable stage. I love Brinstar Depths (and yes, the music is a factor!)

I don't care for either Fourside or Mushroomy Kingdom, but ultimately I dislike Fourside less. And both Pokemon Stadium 2 and Halberd are pretty unremarkable stages as well; I don't feel passionate either way, but I think I prefer Poke Stadium.

(32) Fourside (Melee) vs. (37) Mushroomy Kingdom (Brawl)
(46) Pokemon Stadium 2 (Brawl) vs. (44) Halberd (Brawl)

1) Onett, mainly for Pollyanna. But I do like the amount of detail in that stage, and I'm looking forward to partying on it again in the Wii U version.
2) Brinstar Depths is still a pretty unique and clever stage. And it's a non-lava Metroid level!

3) I don't hate Mushroomy Kingdom, but I gotta go with EarthBound again.
4) This is the tough pick. Kind of a toss-up for me, honestly, so I'll go with the current underdog: Halberd.

The two Earthbound stages have always stuck out in my mind as being great stages, even before I'd played Earthbound. Returning to them now has given me a new appreciation for them.

I actually really like Jungle Japes, but I admit Onett has the superior gameplay.
