Dark Samus's debut into the ''[[Super Smash Bros. (series)|Super Smash Bros.]]'' series is as a collectable trophy and sticker in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. She also appears as an opponent alongside Dark Link in the Event Match Battle of the Dark Sides (although in that particular case, she was depicted as simply a dark silhouette of Samus). The sticker gives an 11+ increase in resistance.

In Subspace Emissary, her sticker can only be equipped by Samus and [[Zero Suit Samus]], and gives them a +11 increase in their battering resistance when equipped.

She attacks using a variety of Phazon-based abilities, such as tentacles that sprout from the ground, a burst of shots from her arm cannon, or spherical missiles that home in on enemies. If enough damage is dealt to her, a ball of light forms around her before she disappears; otherwise, she simply disappears after a period of time.
