CDs return in {{forwiiu}}. They function the same as in ''Brawl'', but are no longer dropped by Sandbag, precluding the use of CD Factories.

[[amiibo|Figure Players]] picking up CDs count towards the player's total, unlike regular CPU players, but they won’t deliberately attempt to grab one.
[[amiibo|Figure Players]] picking up CDs count towards the player's total, unlike regular CPU players, but this rarely happens due to the CDs disappearing very quickly if not picked up.


CDs no longer appeared online, possibly due to CDs getting stolen by players who already have all the songs in the game.

The {{iw|wikipedia|compact disc}} is an optical disc format developed by {{iw|wikipedia|Philips}} and {{iw|wikipedia|Sony}} and officially released in 1982. The CD was designed to improve upon systematic shortcomings of vinyl records and would grow to become one of the most popular formats over the next several decades. Among other advantages, the CD's use of digital audio playback removed issues of generation loss and surface noise that were inherent to analog formats, and the fact that it was read by a laser reflected off of a metal layer within the disc meant that it did not erode from playback (as records and magnetic tape are read by physically rubbing them against a crystal stylus and an electromagnet, respectively). The large data capacity of the discs relative to their size also made them cheap to produce and allowed for greater amounts of audio, video, and/or software to be distributed at once. However, although it was resistant to light scratches and smudges, a disadvantage of the CD is that heavier wear and tear could render areas of the disc unreadable unless it was cleaned or resurfaced, and extreme mishandling could result in CD rot, a process by which the metal layer becomes exposed and oxidizes away, rendering the affected parts of the disc permanently unreadable.

CDs were the dominant format for music from the late 1980s to the early 2000s, when they were supplanted by digital distribution (though they remain widespread in Japan and continental Europe). They were also a popular means of distributing video games and computer software from the 1990s to the 2000s, after which they were supplanted by higher-capacity optical discs like the digital video disc (DVD) and the Blu-Ray, solid state media, and digital distribution. Because Nintendo eschewed industry standard optical disc formats for their video game consoles, real world usage of CDs for the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series is limited to soundtrack albums.

*If [[Mew]] appears from the Poké Ball item, it will drop a CD upon disappearing. If all CDs are collected, it will drop a random sticker in ''Brawl'', and a random [[Trophy]] or [[Custom Part]] in {{forwiiu}}.
