Dream Land (プププラ ンド, "Pupupu Land") is a stage that appears in the original Super Smash Bros. and returns in Super Smash Bros. Melee as Past Stages: Dream Land.

Dream Land can also refer to the area in which the following stages are located: Dream Land (from Super Smash Bros.); Fountain of Dreams, Green Greens, Past Stages: Dream Land (all from Super Smash Bros. Melee); and Battleship Halberd (from Super Smash Bros. Brawl).

The stage was first introduced in Super Smash Bros.. This is also the stage where you fight the group of Kirbys. This is a rather simple stage. It is similar to other stages like Super Smash Bros. Melee's Battlefield and Fountain of Dreams where it has 3 platforms floating over a main one. Whispy Woods, a recurring boss in the Kirby series, is also in the middle of the stage, facing left. He will blow toward one side of the stage every so often to mess up the battle. His wind seems a little more powerful than it is in Melee's similar stage, Green Greens, likely because that he blows it more often there. This stage is legal in SSB competitive play. Bronto Burts and King Dedede can also be seen flying in the far background.

Dream Land is Kirby's home stage, and it is also the stage where Ness is fought while being unlocked (this could be because both characters come from games developed by SSB developer HAL Laboratory).

Kirby Beta Stage 1, Kirby Beta Stage 2, and the How to Play stage are all similar to this stage and can be found in the debug menu.

Past Stages: Dream Land

Dream Land is also available in Super Smash Bros. Melee under this name, and is one of the three unlockable Past Stages from Super Smash Bros. You unlock this stage by beating target test with every character. Like all Past Stages, it is completly unchanged.

This stage is neutral in SSBM. The stage is slightly larger in Melee than it is in SSB. This is considered Peach's, Samus's (against certain characters), and Ganondorf's best stage. It is also considered the most neutral Smash stage ever, according to a 2004 Japanese poll on Melee (which obviously did not include any stages from Super Smash Bros. Brawl).

Origins

Whispy Woods as he appeared in Kirby Super Star.

Dream Land is the generic term used for Kirby's homeland, paralleling Mario's Mushroom Kingdom or Link's Hyrule. In Kirby's Dream Land the first boss is Whispy Woods, who is an apple tree. Whispy Woods has also been the first boss in Kirby Super Star's Spring Breeze. In this stage Whispy Woods resembles the Kirby Super Star version of him. One of the attacks that Whispy Woods use is he sometime blows out puffs of air that would cause damage. In this stage Whispy Woods blows out air, but this does not cause damage. King Dedede is the main recurring villain in the Kirby series. One of the attacks King Dedede uses in Kirby's Adventure and Kirby Super Star is he puffs up and tries to ram into Kirby. King Dedede can be seen puffed up flying in the background of this stage. The overall design of King Dedede looks similar to his appearance in Kirby's Dream Land 3. A common enemy in throughout the Kirby series are Bronto Burts. A Bronto Burt can also be seen flying across the background of this stage. [1]

The music heard in this stage is the song from Kirby Super Star's Gourmet Race. [2]
