Because the 3DS needed third party support when it was first released, Nintendo appreciated Namco's efforts on Tekken 3D: Prime Edition, and the two companies became closer. This eventually led to Namco Bandai assisting Nintendo in developing Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U.

According to Masahiro Sakurai in an interview, Pac-Man would have been removed from the roster if Bandai Namco had rejected his redesign of the character with a more classic Pac-Man appearance, as he considered it superior to the designs used in Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures.

Tekken's Heihachi Mishima was briefly considered for the roster of Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U, but was ultimately replaced with Ryu from Street Fighter. The team thought that implementing Heihachi's movement into the game would have been difficult due to fundamental design differences between the Tekken and Super Smash Bros. series, and instead released a Mii Fighter costume of him. He was once again considered for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, but his son Kazuya was chosen instead due to him possessing the Devil Gene from his mother Kazumi. This choice was made to implement Kazuya's Devil Powers into midair jumps, smash attacks and special moves, while making the rest of Kazuya's moveset as similar as possible to his normal moveset in the Tekken series.

Tingle's trophy chronology only mentions his appearance in Majora's Mask. Which is odd considering Tingle's Wind Waker design is used for the trophy, and his role in Wind Waker is mentioned in the trophy's description.

The texture for the Skull Kid assist trophy contains an unused portion which seems to be the flute he used in Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask. It is unknown what it could have been used for, though it's likley he was supposed to use it in some way when the player summons him.

In Super Smash Bros for 3DS the trophy titled "Luigi (With Poltergust 3000)" is actually wrong. The Poltergust that Luigi is wearing is actually the Poltergust 5000 from Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon, which can be noted by the green light on the back of it.

This does not happen on the the Omega variant of the stage, nor does it occur at all in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
