Punch-Out!!

Little Mac

Little Mac is the protagonist of the Punch-Out!! series. A boxer from the Bronx, New York City, Little Mac trains under Doc Louis in order to become the world champion of the World Video Boxing Association (WVBA). Little Mac has made several crossover appearances with Mario, Donkey Kong, and other characters from the Super Mario franchise, some of which are via appearances in the Punch-Out!! series itself. Mario's voice actor, Charles Martinet, provided the voice of Little Mac in Super Punch-Out!!

Punch-Out!! series

Little Mac fighting Donkey Kong in the Wii version of Punch-Out!!

The original protagonist of the arcade Punch-Out!! and Super Punch-Out!! titles fights several fighters for the world championship, and is depicted as a tall, green-haired man with a cleft chin who appears as a wireframe model during gameplay. The character "Little Mac" did not appear until Punch-Out!! for the NES (also known as Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!!), which featured a younger and shorter protagonist mentored by his manager and trainer, Doc Louis. Mario cameos as the referee.

In Super Punch-Out!! for the SNES, there was initially confusion over whether the protagonist of the game was Little Mac or an entirely different character, due to said protagonist featuring sandy blond hair, a pair of blue shorts, and lacking a tank top. Nintendo of America later clarified that the two are indeed the same character, with Little Mac having changed his appearance after splitting ways with Doc Louis.

After a 15-year hiatus, the Punch-Out!! series was rebooted with a titular installment for the Wii. After fighting through all of his opponents once again, Mac gets tired of his fame and decides to go out in a blaze of glory. Dubbed "Mac's Last Stand", his condition for retiring and thus vacating the world championship is losing three times. In this game, Donkey Kong appears as a secret opponent, and his record is displayed as 0-0 (0 wins, 0 losses). In the latest title so far, Doc Louis's Punch-Out, he spars with Doc.

Pit makes a cameo in The Super Mario Bros. Movie, early in the film when Mario is in Brooklyn playing Kid Icarus on his NES. The Kid Icarus cartridge, featuring Pit, also appears in the credits.

Palutena

Palutena is the goddess of light and female lead of the Kid Icarus series. She serves as the damsel in distress in the original games, but takes on a more proactive role in Masahiro Sakurai's Kid Icarus: Uprising, providing protagonist Pit with guidance and powers from afar. In contrast to her serene, elegant appearance, Palutena has a playful "trickster" personality that she uses to tease Pit and other characters on occasion.

Super Mario Maker

Palutena appears in Super Mario Maker as a costume available for Costume Mario. Her sprite is based upon her appearance in Kid Icarus: Uprising, rather than the one seen in the original Kid Icarus. All of her sound effects, including the transformation, jumping, and fanfare, are taken from the Disk System version of the original Kid Icarus. Pressing causes her to stand facing the player.

Dark Pit

Dark Pit (sometimes called Pittoo by Pit and Palutena) is an imperfect, opposite clone of Pit created after the destruction of the Mirror of Truth, in the events of Kid Icarus: Uprising.

His appearance is identical to Pit's, except with the dark coloring to his clothing, wings and hair. His character was most likely based off the "fallen angel" coloration of Pit in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, as both Kid Icarus: Uprising and Super Smash Bros. Brawl were made by Sora Ltd.

Super Mario Maker

Dark Pit can be unlocked as a Costume Mario costume in Super Mario Maker. His sprite is identical to Pit's sprite, but using Dark Pit's colors. While the transformation and jump sounds as well as the course clear song are taken from the Famicom Disk System of Kid Icarus, his death song is taken from the game over theme of Kid Icarus: Uprising.

Metal Gear Solid

Snake

Solid Snake (whose real name is David) is the main character of Konami's Metal Gear series of games. He is one of the results of the "Les Enfants Terribles" project, a government project to create clones of the renowned soldier "Big Boss", and is constantly given the mission of deprogramming the various versions of the bipedal nuclear-armed tank called Metal Gear. Snake has appeared in the Super Smash Bros. series, debuting in Super Smash Bros. Brawl and returning in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. According to Masahiro Sakurai, Metal Gear series creator Hideo Kojima originally asked him to include Snake in Super Smash Bros. Melee, but as the game was too far into development at that point, he could not be included and was instead added into the next game. Like in the Metal Gear series at the time of release, Snake is voiced by Akio Ohtsuka in the Japanese version, and by David Hayter in the English version. Although he is identified as Solid Snake, his actual appearance in the Super Smash Bros. series is technically a mixture between Solid Snake himself and his "father", Big Boss, or more accurately his Naked Snake self from Snake Eater. He is one of only three characters in the series to come from an M-rated franchise, with the others being Bayonetta and Joker.

Snake fights using a combination of explosives and hand-to-hand combat. Snake's special moves are Hand Grenade, an explosive that can be thrown at various distances, Remote Controlled Missile, a guided missile that rockets wherever it is aimed, Cypher, a flying security drone that flies Snake up, and C4, a sticky explosive that can be mounted on various surfaces. Snake can also deal a small amount of damage with his taunts, which involve him hiding in and coming out his cardboard box, which can also be thrown like an item to deal 1-2% of damage.

Additionally, Snake has access to a unique series of taunts, which spawns in a cardboard box that Snake retreats into. When Snake exits the box at the end of the taunt, it can hit an opponent for a small amount of damage (1%~2%.) The cardboard box is an iconic trademark of the Metal Gear series, appearing in most games as a way to sneak by enemies.

He crosses over with the Super Mario cast and other Nintendo characters as a newcomer and downloadable character for Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, confirmed during the November 2015 Nintendo Direct, and as an unlockable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. While using his original design, Cloud's primary appearance in Super Smash Bros. is specifically based upon that of Dissidia Final Fantasy. Players who purchase Cloud from the Nintendo eShop also get his stage based on Final Fantasy VII, Midgar. Despite having almost all of his home series appearances dubbed in English, and a few earlier appearances dubbed in additional languages, Cloud speaks only Japanese in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, similar to Marth and Roy prior to Ultimate; he is voiced by Takahiro Sakurai, his Japanese voice actor from Kingdom Hearts onward.

Cloud was the first third-party character in the Super Smash Bros. series whose debut title was never released on a Nintendo console (though Final Fantasy VII has since released on the Nintendo Switch).

Ness is often pictured with a baseball bat, which is the first weapon acquired in EarthBound. Throughout the Super Smash Bros. series, Ness was voiced by Makiko Ohmoto, who also voices Kirby. Ness's name is an anagram of "SNES", the shorthand term for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System, on which EarthBound was released (however, it is also like "NES" as in the Nintendo Entertainment System).

Yoshi's Woolly World / Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World

A Yoshi design based on Ness can be unlocked in Yoshi's Woolly World and Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World when players scan a Ness amiibo in.

Super Mario Maker

Ness makes a cameo appearance in Super Mario Maker as an unlockable amiibo costume for Costume Mario. Mario's 8-bit sprite takes the appearance of Ness, and his sound effects change to ones from EarthBound: when acquired, the PSI healing sound effect plays. Clearing the stage plays the boss victory theme. When falling into a pit, the sound effect of Ness's party being defeated from that game plays, and pressing on the controller makes the jingle for learning a new technique play. The costume is unlocked either randomly upon completion of 100 Mario Challenge on Normal difficulty or higher, or by scanning a Ness amiibo.

Mario Kirby Meisaku Video

King Dedede, alongside his rival Kirby, appeared alongside Mario in the obscure educational video Mario Kirby Meisaku Video; however, this video was merely a compilation of their non-intertwining adventures. In Kirby's Mario Kirby Meisaku Video segment, King Dedede acted as the main antagonist, where it was believed that he had kidnapped the mother of a stray puppy that Kirby befriended. In actuality, King Dedede discovered the dog to have been injured and attempted to nurse her back to health at his castle.

In certain games, after Meta Knight is defeated, his mask splits into two, revealing a face near identical to Kirby's; the main difference being his blue skin tone. He has made crossover appearances with the Super Mario franchise, mostly in the Super Smash Bros. series.

Meta Knight is the only Kirby series character in the Super Smash Bros. series that speaks in full dialogue, aside from Knuckle Joe. In addition, Super Smash Bros. Brawl is the first game in which Meta Knight has a voice actor.

He has a very laid back but cocky attitude and is smart mouthed. Despite this, nothing gets in the way of Falco and Fox's friendship.

His surname is derived from the surname of Carlo Rambaldi, a special effects artist on films such as Alien and E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial.

Pikachu has made some video game appearances alongside Mario, most notably in the Super Smash Bros. series, in which it is a default playable character in every installment. In the Pokémon series, Pikachu is the evolved form of Pichu and evolves into Raichu. Pikachu is voiced by Ikue Ohtani in the Super Smash Bros. series. She also voices Pikachu in the Pokémon anime, as well as several mainline games (first in Pokémon Yellow Version: Special Pikachu Edition) and various spin-offs.

Pikachu is the only playable Pokémon in the Super Smash Bros. series to have a gender difference. Female Pikachu have a heart-shaped dent at the end of their tail, while the Pikachu in the Super Smash Bros. series does not except in two of its alternate costumes in Ultimate, which implies that the Pikachu in Smash is male.

Super Mario Maker

Jigglypuff appears as one of the Costume Mario costumes in Super Mario Maker, which can be unlocked either by using the Jigglypuff amiibo or by clearing 100 Mario Challenge on Normal difficulty or greater. Its sprite is based upon the overworld sprite used in the Nintendo DS Pokémon games. Like the other Smash for 3DS/Wii U-based Pokémon costumes, Jigglypuff does not have any altered sound effects.

Mewtwo

Mewtwo is a Legendary Psychic-type Pokémon debuting in the first Pokémon games, Pokémon Red Version and Pokémon Green Version. Mewtwo was created artificially based on the genetic code of Mew to be the ultimate battling Pokémon, though it grew too vicious and powerful to be controlled and escaped. Among all the Pokémon that exist, Mewtwo has the most violent nature. As of Pokémon X and Pokémon Y, Mewtwo can Mega Evolve into either Mega Mewtwo X or Mega Mewtwo Y.

Mewtwo makes a playable appearance as an unlockable fighter in Super Smash Bros. Melee, and as a downloadable fighter in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, later appearing in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate as an unlockable fighter like in Super Smash Bros. Melee. Its appearance in the Super Smash Bros. series is primarily based on the Mewtwo from the first Pokémon anime movie, who was initially cruel, condescending, and fierce before reforming its ways, yet also questions its existence and purpose. Mewtwo is thus far the only Legendary Pokémon to be playable in the Super Smash Bros. series. Its depiction as a lightweight fighter in the Super Smash Bros. series is likely due to its floaty attributes and its tendency to float while moving, which are both mentioned in its trophy descriptions. Its lightweight status may also be a reference to the Pokémon games, where its defenses are on the low side when compared to most other Pokémon who share its base stat total.

Mewtwo never speaks when the language is set to English in the NTSC version of Super Smash Bros. Melee, at all in the PAL version of the game, in Western versions of Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, and when the game is set to any language other than Japanese or Chinese in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate; it makes only grunts, laughs, and other noises. However, it does speak telepathically on the results screen when the language is set to Japanese (as well as Chinese in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate).

Mario Artist: Paint Studio

Super Mario Maker

Mewtwo is one of the Costume Mario costumes that can be unlocked in Super Mario Maker, either with a Mewtwo amiibo or as a random unlock by completing the 100 Mario Challenge. Mewtwo's sprite is based on its overworld sprite from the Nintendo DS Pokémon games, though like the other Pokémon costumes in the game (excluding the Event Course costumes), Mewtwo does not have any unique sound effects, instead using the default Super Mario Bros. sounds.

Pichu

Pichu is an Electric-type Pokémon introduced in the games Pokémon Gold and Pokémon Silver. It is the pre-evolved form of Pikachu, the Pokémon mascot. It appears as a playable fighter in Super Smash Bros. Melee and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate and as a trophy in Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS, as well as being mentioned in the Palutena's Guidance conversation regarding Pikachu in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

Joker
