'''Wily Castle''' ({{ja|ワイリー基地|Wairī Kichi}}, ''Wily Base''), also known as '''Skull Castle''', is a stage that appears in both versions of ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' from the {{uv|Mega Man}} series. It takes place in front of Dr. Wily's Castle as depicted in ''[[Mega Man 2]]''. The recurring [[Yellow Devil]] boss from the ''Mega Man'' games also appears on this stage as a stage hazard, exploding when enough damage is done to its eye by the players. Its main method of attacking is using his own body, similar to ''Mega Man''. In ''Ultimate'', {{SSBU|Mega Man}} is fought here for his unlock battle. | '''Wily Castle''' ({{ja|ワイリー基地|Wairī Kichi}}, ''Wily Base''), also known as '''Skull Castle''', is a stage that appears in both versions of ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros.

The Yellow Devil can be defeated by players if they deal a sufficient amount of damage to its only vulnerable spot, the eye. Once defeated, the Yellow Devil will create a slowly-expanding explosion that trap opponents, which does not affect the player who dealt the killing blow. The final hit deals significant damage and knockback, and the explosion counts as an attack for the player who landed the final blow. If left undefeated, the Yellow Devil will disassemble and fly off to the left or right before disappearing. | The Yellow Devil can be defeated by players if they deal a sufficient amount of damage to its only vulnerable spot, the eye.

In every game in the original series of ''Mega Man'' games, [[Dr. Wily]] would reside in a castle that could only be accessed by defeating the eight (six in the first ''Mega Man'' game) Robot Masters. Among the numerous robotic enemies found in the castle besides the rebuilt Robot Masters, the most notable enemy was the recurring boss, Yellow Devil. This boss was often among the last lines of defense against [[Mega Man]], being fought at the end of certain stages in the castle. As for the castles themselves, there were often several different stages in them, one of which was usually reserved for fighting the rebuilt Robot Masters in a sort of Boss Rush Mode. At the end of the castle, Dr. Wily was the players' opponent, often fighting in countless varieties of mechs. | In every game in the original series of ''Mega Man'' games, [[Dr. Wily]] would reside in a castle that could only be accessed by defeating the eight (six in the first ''Mega Man'' game) Robot Masters.

Depending on the version being played, different platforms appear. In the Wii U version, a rail carrying a moving platform appears. These rails have been a staple of the ''Mega Man'' series since the first game, where they appeared in Guts Man's stage and Dr. Wily's Castle. In the 3DS version, pendulum-like platforms similar to the ones in Bright Man's stage, and the rotating conveyor belt platforms in the Tako Trash boss room from ''Mega Man 4'' appear, in addition to floating platforms modeled after the ones in Tomahawk Man's stage from ''Mega Man 6''. In ''Ultimate,'' the two versions are combined into one. | Depending on the version being played, different platforms appear. In the Wii U version, a rail carrying a moving platform appears.
