'''AKANEIA''' is a [[stage]] remnant in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' that can only be accessed through the activation of the {{SSBM|debug menu}} by [[Action Replay]]. Both evidence left in the game itself and a comment by [[Masahiro Sakurai]] confirm that the stage was intended to be a {{uv|Fire Emblem}} stage; ''Fire Emblem'' is the only [[universe]] with playable characters which has no stage of its own in the final version of the game.

==Overview==
The game crashes if a battle is started with AKANEIA designated as the stage. Unlike similar non-playable levels in ''Melee'' such as [[DUMMY]] and [[ICETOP]], there are no known hacks which allow AKANEIA to be properly accessed. There exist unsubstantiated rumors concerning the stage, including claims that pieces of it can be isolated or viewed within the game's data, but no evidence proves that anyone has successfully accessed AKANEIA or discovered any unique elements for it. Many players and hackers have attempted to recreate this 'mythical' stage, but none have gotten past the apparent stage hazards.

The game crashes if a battle is started with AKANEIA designated as the stage via the debug menu. Unlike similar non-playable levels in ''Melee'' such as [[DUMMY]] and [[ICETOP]], there are no known hacks which allow AKANEIA to be properly accessed, and it is the only stage in all the game that is completely inaccessible. Unsubstantiated rumors claim that pieces of it can be isolated or viewed within the game's data, but no evidence proves that anyone has successfully accessed AKANEIA or discovered any unique elements for it.


When the game crashes from attempting to load AKANEIA, the following error is left in the Log:

According to [[Masahiro Sakurai]], responding on [[Smabura-Ken]] to a fan's confusion about the ''Fire Emblem'' series' lack of a stage, a ''Fire Emblem'' stage called {{ja|アカネイア王国|Akaneia Ōkoku}} ("Kingdom of Archanea") was in fact planned to appear in ''Melee''. It was intended to feature {{s|fireemblemwiki|onager}}s slinging boulders at a castle, while {{s|fireemblemwiki|dragon}}s and {{s|fireemblemwiki|mage}}s would make appearances in an unspecified role. Unstated circumstances regarding its production resulted in it being scrapped.<ref>[http://www.nintendo.co.jp/n01/n64/software/nus_p_nalj/smash/flash/syukeiken/return527.html 速報スマブラ拳!!: "アンケート集計拳!!"]</ref><ref>[https://sourcegaming.wordpress.com/2015/04/13/the-definitive-unused-fighters-list-in-smash/ Source Gaming: "The Definitive Unused Fighters List in Smash"]</ref> The unused AKANEIA is a remnant from this plan, as well as the fact that the track "{{MeleeMusic|Fire Emblem}}" is named <code>AKANEIA.HPS</code> within the game's data. The idea of a ''Fire Emblem'' stage consisting of a castle under attack would be revisited in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', with the stage [[Castle Siege]].
