Falco Lombardi, Slippy Toad and Peppy Hare were at one point considered for Fox's alternate costumes, before being scrapped in favor of generic recolours. Falco would eventually appear as a unique character in Super Smash Bros. Melee, and while Slippy and Peppy to date still have not appeared, alternate costumes that change a character outright would become a Smash feature starting in the 3DS and Wii U games, with Alph for Olimar and the Koopalings for Bowser Jr.

Despite being boss characters in the game's 1P Mode, Giant Donkey Kong and Metal Mario are competitively considered some of the worst characters in the game and a clear downgrade from their root characters when modded into Vs. Mode.

Mario and his Special Moves in this game are based off of the "Shoto" style of Fighting Game characters, most specifically the character Ryu from Street Fighter. For example, like Ryu, Mario has a Hadoken-like "fireball" attack with his Neutral Special (Fireball), A punching uppercut similar to the Shoryuken via his Up Special (Super Jump Punch), and a spinning tackle akin to Ryu's Tatsumaki Senpukyaku in the form of his Down Special (Mario Tornado). However, while Mario's moveset would change in later games to be less Shoto-esque, Ryu himself would be added into the Smash series and make his debut as a fighter in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U.

In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, the stage's graphics would be revised to more closely resemble Super Mario Bros., using graphics from Super Mario Maker, and the faux-8-bit Super Smash Bros. rendition of the overworld theme would be the sole battle song from that game to be absent, in favor of the original NES rendition of the song.

In a 1999 interview with the game's director and designer Masahiro Sakurai published in Nice Games magazine vol.3, he was asked if he ran into trouble with getting permission to use Nintendo characters? He responded:
"The first person I asked for permission was Shigesato Itoi. Next was Shigeru Miyamoto. When he saw our work he said, “Hey, you’ve got Mario down pretty good!” The Pokemon characters took the longest to get permission, because their image is tightly supervised. I broached the subject with Pokemon Company president Tsunekazu Ishihara, but the impression I got from him was that it would probably be difficult. Satoshi Tajiri was more encouraging—he was like, “this looks cool!”"
"Personally, as the creator of Kirby, I understood how they felt: I would feel be really upset if Kirby was featured in a game that people ended up disliking, or if the people got his image and movements wrong. In fact, there had been times when I’d been kind of annoyed by the way Kirby was depicted in someone else’s illustration or as a game cameo. Smash Bros. was conceived, in part, as a reaction against that kind of sloppy handling. I imagine anyone who creates a character feels similarly protective, but Smash Bros. brought an unprecedented number of different characters together and it was of the utmost importance to us that we re-create their personalities and characteristics faithfully. I absolutely did not want to betray the original characters’ creators."

Marth was originally going to be part of the roster, but was scrapped due to time constraints. He later made his appearance in Super Smash Bros. Melee as an unlockable character.

On Hyrule Castle, the Maxim Tomato item never appears, making the Heart Containers from The Legend of Zelda universe the only major healing item to appear. If it is the only item put on using the item switch, all boxes and capsules will either explode or be empty.

The bedroom seen in the intro and in the scene shown after completing 1P Game has a door that is always completely unseen. Since the camera focuses mostly on the table where Master Hand puts the dolls on, the door stays hidden behind the camera.

Captain Falcon and Samus share multiple attack animations.

In the Japanese release, the attack sounds are real punching noises. It's likely this was changed to keep the game family-friendly.

There is an unused sound of the announcer saying "draw game", suggesting this may be an early name for Sudden Death, or possibly that sudden death originally didn't exist.

In the Japanese version, there is an unused voice clip of the announcer saying "Jigglypuff!", however Jigglypuff's Japanese name is Purin. This seems to hint that the developers planned to release the game in the west from the start, as Jigglypuff is the only character whose name is different in English and Japanese. This voice clip is also different than the one used in the international release of the game.
