The "Meta Crystal" stage is themed after [[Metal Mario]], and specifically is built from props used in [[Hazy Maze Cave]] and the [[Behind the Waterfall|Cavern of the Metal Cap]], such as the wire nets and the crystals. While "Meta Crystal" itself is not a location in the ''Mario'' games, that's not a thing unique to this one among ''Smash'' stages; for instance, there is no location called (or even resembling) "Poké Floats" anywhere in the ''Pokémon'' games or other media, that stage is simply an excuse to recycle some static ''Pokémon Stadium 2'' models and call it a stage. Similarly, the "Temple" stage is not based off anywhere specific in ''The Legend of Zelda'' series, but is based on a dungeon archetype used in several games (at the time, notably ''The Adventure of Link'', ''Ocarina of Time'', and ''Majora's Mask''), but in practice looks more like a generic Medieval European ruin than anywhere specific in that series. Meta Crystal is no different in that regard, and for that reason I think it should be treated as a ''Mario''-based stage and given its own page here. If [[The Lake]] is ''Mario''-based enough to keep its page, then this should be too. | The "Meta Crystal" stage is themed after [[Metal Mario]], and specifically is built from props used in [[Hazy Maze Cave]] and the [[Behind the Waterfall|Cavern of the Metal Cap]], such as the wire nets and the crystals.
