{{nihongo|'''Sector Z'''|セクターZ|Sekutā Zetto}} is a default [[stage]] appearing in [[Super Smash Bros.]] based on the Star Fox 64 level ''Sector Z''. This stage did not return in [[Melee]] but a similar stage atop the [[Great Fox]] appeared, [[Corneria (SSBM)|Corneria]] (which subsequently reappeared in ''[[Brawl]]'').  This is the largest stage appearing in [[Super Smash Bros.]] In the [[1P Game|1-Player mode]] the player fights [[Fox]] on this stage.


The Great Fox is the only platform on this stage but it has three different terrain levels. The front two-thirds of the ship are the first terrain with the tip of the wing acting as a good vantage point for projectile throwing. The back third of the ship near the engines and the Arwing bay is another terrain with the left wall being a good place to rack combos on another player. However, unlike the [[Corneria]] stage in [[Melee]], the guns on the bottom-left of the ship cannot be used as a platform. For this reason, it is best to avoid this area of the ship as you cannot recover from the guns.

Occasionally in this stage, Arwing fighters will fire at the players, causing significant damage/ flight time. For this reason, this stage has been banned in many tournaments. Also, a character standing on a fighter may be KO'd if the fighter flies offscreen to the top or side; however, the Arwings do tend to barrel roll or fly upside down, which essentially pushes the character off. Unlike the Arwing fighters, though, the main guns of the Great Fox do not fire.

While the stage reappeared in spirit as [[Corneria]] in [[Melee]] and [[Brawl]], the stage was much smaller than its N64 incarnation.

==Origin==
There are numerous references to the [[Star Fox (series)|Star Fox series]] in this level. Commonly seen ships in the game, the Wolfen and Arwing, can be seen in the background. As mentioned earlier Sector Z is a level in Star Fox 64, the fifth level when taking the hard path. The level takes place in a nebulae en route to [[Venom]] when the Star Fox team and the Great Fox is ambushed by Andross' fighters who have a weapon never seen before, missiles. These missiles also appear in the background of the stage. The player must protect the Great Fox in this level from enemy fighters and missiles hits. Sector Z was also a multiplayer level in Star Fox 64. This area was probably chosen for the setting of this stage because it is the only stage where the Great Fox is prominently seen in its normal form and the Great Fox acts as a great platform.

==Similarities & Differences==

Sector Z & Corneria have multiple things in common, as well as obvious differences

Similarities:
*Both stages gameplay takes place on the Great Fox.

Differences:
*Corneria has a different Backdrop.
*Sector Z is noticeably larger than Corneria.

-'''Sector Z''' ({{ja|セクターＺ|Sekutā Z}}, ''Sector Z'') is a default [[stage]] appearing in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' based on the ''[[Star Fox 64]]'' level ''Sector Z''. It is called "Sector Z" because of the red nebula in the background which resembles the letter "Z". This stage did not return in any later game, but a near-identically-shaped albeit much smaller stage also taking place on the [[Great Fox]], [[Corneria]], appeared in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' and later as a returning stage in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', {{for3ds}} and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''.
-In the [[1P Game]], the player fights {{SSB|Fox}} on this stage.

The back third of the ship near the engines and the Arwing bay is another terrain with the left wall being a good place to rack damage on another player.
-[[Arwing]] fighters will occasionally fire at the players, dealing large amounts of damage and knockback. Also, a character standing on a fighter may be KO'd if the fighter flies offscreen to the top or side; however, the Arwings do tend to barrel roll or fly upside down, which essentially pushes the character off. 2D sprites of Arwings can alse be seen in the background from a distance. Unlike the Arwing fighters or the Great Fox's appearance in Corneria, though, the main guns of the Great Fox cannot be stood on and do not fire.

-This stage is based on the {{s|lylatwiki|Sector Z}} level from ''{{s|lylatwiki|Star Fox 64}}'' (''Lylat Wars'' in the PAL region), in which Invader III ships attempted to ambush the {{s|lylatwiki|Great Fox}}, [[lylatwiki:Star Fox (team)|Star Fox]]'s mobile headquarters, by firing six Copperhead Missiles at it; however, Star Fox was able to destroy the missiles and drive away the enemy forces. Sector Z also appears as a multiplayer stage in ''Star Fox 64''.
-In this stage, the Great Fox acts as the main platform of the stage, and space junk and Copperhead Missiles occasionally fly past in the background. Also in this stage are {{s|lylatwiki|Arwing}}s, Star Fox's signature aircraft, that occasionally fly above the stage and are based on their appearance in ''Star Fox 64''. They also appear to have one {{s|lylatwiki|Laser Upgrade}} as they fire two lasers at once as opposed to the standard one.
+==Similarities & Differences==
-{{clrl}}
-==Tournament legality==
+Sector Z & Corneria have multiple things in common, as well as obvious differences
-The stage is banned throughout almost all rulesets due to the knockback of the lasers disrupting gameplay, and the excessive size of the stage allowing various types of [[camping]] and allowing characters to live up to unusually high percentages. The lower area of the stage also allows easy circle camping and wall combos.
+Similarities:
+*Both stages gameplay takes place on the Great Fox.
+Differences:
+*Corneria has a different Backdrop.
+*Sector Z is noticeably larger than Corneria.

-==Trivia==
-*Sector Z and [[Planet Zebes]] are the only ''Smash 64'' stages that do not return in any future game, having been functionally replaced by [[Corneria]] and [[Brinstar]] respectively. Because of this, {{SSBU|Fox}} is paired with {{SSBU|Kirby}} during {{SSBU|Jigglypuff}}'s {{SSBU|Classic Mode}} route in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''.
