==Tournament legality==
In , Prism Tower was a counterpick stage. However, despite not having intrusive hazards, it still has many features considered unusual for legal stages in SSB4, such as being a touring stage with an initial walkoff section and another section with multiple platforms with grabbable edges. Its status as a legal stage is largely owed to the poor availability of competitively suitable stages in the 3DS version, and due to its unpopularity in competitive settings, Prism Tower is hardly ever seen in competitive play.
In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Prism Tower is universally banned, thanks to the larger availability of more conventional competitive stages.

In terms of design, the tower in Smash has a composite between its game version (with the more arched entrance, the yellow gym leader symbol, and more outside flora) and its anime version (with more tinted windows and glass doors). In addition to the elements of both versions, the entrance also has monitors with advertisements, which could be found throughout the rest of the city in the original game.
