The area is also a lot closer to {{s|mariowiki|Peach's Castle}} than it was in ''Super Mario 3D Land''. {{iw|mariowiki|Flip Panel|platform}}s originate from {{iw|mariowiki|World 2-1|Super Mario 3D Land}}, and while there they are usually activated by stepping on a switch on the ground, here they activate automatically. {{s|mariowiki|Note Block}}s also appear in the game, originating from ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', and bouncing Mario and Luigi as they do fighters in ''Smash''; this block is two blocks long, as was often the case in ''Super Mario 3D Land''. | ||
The valley area's closest resemblance is {{iw|mariowiki|World 8-2|Super Mario 3D Land}}, in that both levels have steep rock cliffs with grass on top (some of the grass appears as orange in ''Ultimate''); however, the resemblance ends there, as the level in ''Super Mario 3D Land'' did not have moving platforms (other than ones that move in a circular pattern), or gray rocks protruding from the cliff sides. The cliff walls are also more red than they are in original game. Other than World 8-2, there are no levels that resemble the valley area. | The valley area's closest resemblance is {{iw|mariowiki|World 8-2|Super Mario 3D Land}}, in that both levels have steep rock cliffs with grass on top (some of the grass appears as orange in ''Ultimate''); however, the resemblance ends there, as the level in ''Super Mario 3D Land'' did not have moving platforms (other than ones that move in a circular pattern), or gray rocks protruding from the cliff sides.

The downhill area is roughly based on {{iw|mariowiki|World 4-1|Super Mario 3D Land}}. In World 4-1, Mario or Luigi navigates through the level by scaling steep cliff sides with grass tops. In this stage, the design of the soil found on the smaller cliffs with grass has been retained, and the gray rock cliff walls seen in the background are designed around the taller cliff walls in World 4-1. The level also has trees with rounded tops, which were also retained in this stage. However, the end of World 4-1 was located on top of a tree-like structure perched on top of the cliff, meaning that Mario or Luigi is mostly going upward, unlike in this stage where the battle goes downhill. | The downhill area is roughly based on {{iw|mariowiki|World 4-1|Super Mario 3D Land}}.

Rotating blocks appear in | Rotating blocks appear in {{iw|mariowiki|World 4-3|Super Mario 3D Land}}, {{iw|mariowiki|Special 3-2}}, and {{iw|mariowiki|Special 6-4}}.

Wii}}'', the design of the blocks originate from ''Super Mario 3D Land''. In the levels that feature the rotating blocks, the level takes place in the sky above clouds, but in this stage, they're closer to the ground. | ||
The extending pipes, despite debuting in ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario World}}'', never appear in ''Super Mario 3D Land'', though they may be based off of the action of Warp Pipes appearing from the ground for Mario or Luigi to enter (such as in their on-screen appearance), which dates back to titles such as ''Super Mario 64'' and ''Super Mario Galaxy''. | The extending pipes, despite debuting in ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario World}}'', never appear in ''Super Mario 3D Land'', though they may be based off of the action of Warp Pipes appearing from the ground for Mario or Luigi to enter (such as in their on-screen appearance), which dates back to titles such as ''Super Mario 64'' and ''Super Mario Galaxy''. | ||

The idea of Mario on moving platforms come from {{iw|mariowiki|World 1-4|Super Mario 3D Land}}, in the form of {{iw|mariowiki|Switchboard}}s, but the background and scenery of the stage mostly resemble {{iw|mariowiki|World 6-1|Super Mario 3D Land}}. The design of the Switchboards, however, are different from ''Super Mario 3D Land'' as they, in the original game are moved by Mario or Luigi standing on a side of the platform featuring arrows. The platform would then move in that direction by the two wheels on the sides along rails. The Switchboards in this stage do not feature the arrows and the wheels, and its movement on the rail is not based on Mario or Luigi's position, but instead moves automatically. This area of the stage also features multiple {{iw|mariowiki|Skewer}}s, which first appeared in ''[[Super Mario World]]'', and have returned in recent ''Mario'' games. In ''Super Mario 3D Land'', Skewers appear in neither World 1-4 nor 6-1, but rather only in certain Airship levels, like {{iw|mariowiki|World 3-Airship|Super Mario 3D Land}} and {{iw|mariowiki|World 6-Airship|Super Mario 3D Land}}. The design of the Skewers has been retained. | ||
