Simon Belmont is a recurring character in the television series Captain N: The Game Master. In the series, he resides in Videoland (specifically the location Castlevania), and is a member of the N Team. In the pilot episode, "Kevin in Videoland", Simon helps the other heroes rescue Princess Lana, and they then battle Mother Brain and her allies throughout the show. A recurring gag in the series involved him frequently checking himself on a handheld mirror, and admiring himself. Andrew Kavadas portrayed him in the series.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

Template:Main-external Simon makes his Super Smash Bros. debut in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate as a third-party character, alongside fellow Konami characters Solid Snake and Richter Belmont, Sega's Sonic the Hedgehog and Bayonetta, Capcom's Mega Man and Ryu, Bandai Namco's Pac-Man, and Square Enix's Cloud Strife. His various attacks involve him using his "Vampire Killer" whip. Simon's special attacks are Axe, an axe that is a powerful projectile; Holy Water, a magical, multi-hitting projectile dealing flame damage; Cross, a projectile with boomerang-esque properties; and Uppercut, a powerful uppercut that functions as Simon's recovery move. His Final Smash, Grand Cross, involves trapping players in a coffin and destroying it. Simon's whip is long-ranged, being effective to use from far distances. Simon's forward, back, and up aerials also function as tether recoveries, making them useful for recovering when close to an edge.

In his debut trailer, he arrives at Dracula's Castle, and also eliminates Death shortly after the latter easily defeated Luigi. He later confronts Dracula himself but is nearly defeated, only to be saved by his descendant Richter.[1]

In the Adventure mode, Simon is seen standing near a cliff when he and the other fighters oppose Galeem for the first time. Simon, like every fighter except Kirby, is hit by one of Galeem's beams of light and imprisoned in the World of Light, where a Galeem-serving "Puppet Fighter" (copy) of him is created. Simon is later freed after his Puppet Fighter is defeated, and he subsequently joins Kirby's team against Galeem and later Dharkon.
