The Japanese trailer introducing Mega Man in Super Smash Bros. for 3DS and Wii U has "Clash Man" (the original Japanese name) instead of "Crash Man" (the English name) in the Japanese commercial, despite being changed to Crash Man in Japan.

As of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate in 2018, only three characters that started out as Assist Trophies became playable in future installments:

•Little Mac, an Assist Trophy in Brawl, then became playable in Super Smash Bros. for 3DS/Wii U
•Dark Samus, an Assist Trophy in Super Smash Bros. for 3DS/Wii U, then became playable in Ultimate
•Isabelle, an Assist Trophy in Super Smash Bros. for 3DS/Wii U, then became playable in Ultimate.
