**[[Ness]]'s congratulations screen in ''Smash 64'' is the only one to contain characters that do not make any other appearances in the game.

*In ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'', the short video cutscene that plays after Peach's congratulations screen makes various references to Princess Daisy. In one scene, Peach, in her Daisy color scheme, is shown grabbing Luigi, and in another scene, Peach, along with another Peach in Daisy's color scheme, is shown floating away from a [[Chain Chomp]] together.

**Characters from the ''Mario'' universe and its sub-universes (except Yoshi, who uses a blocky font) use the font used for large text in newer ''Mario'' games.

***Notably, Pit and Palutena use the "realistic" font while Dark Pit does not. This same distinction between realistic and unrealistic characters is used for the sound made when [[tripping]]; Meta Knight uses the "unrealistic" font but makes the "realistic" tripping sound, while the opposite is true for R.O.B.

***However, Mr. Game & Watch also uses the "realistic" font despite being a more "cartoony" character.
