The '''crowd''' is a group of unseen people that can be heard during matches in all games of the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]]. The crowd can occasionally be be heard cheering by shouting the name of a character that is used by a human player if they are at high [[damage]] and does something significant, such as [[KO|KOing]] multiple opponents at once. Every [[character]] has a unique cheer chant in each of the ''Smash Bros.'' games. Sometimes, if a player can just make it back to the [[stage]], after being [[knockback|knocked]] far away from the stage, the crowd will gasp. In ''[[Brawl]]'', the crowd will also gasp whenever a [[smash ball]] or legendary [[pokeball|pokemon]] appears (with the exception of [[Latias and Latios|Lati@s]]).
The '''crowd''', referred to as '''Publicity''' in the {{SSBM|debug menu}} of ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', is a group of unseen people that can be heard during matches in all games of the ''{{b|Super Smash Bros.|series}}'' series.


==Causes of cheering==
In ''[[Melee]]'', having the crowd cheer for the player will earn them the "Crowd favorite" [[bonus points|bonus]], which is worth 2500 points. A player causing the crowd to gasp frequently during the match (at least 3 times every minute) will earn the player the "Master of suspense" bonus, also worth 2500 points. This is the only time in any of the ''Smash Bros.'' games the crowd can affect the match.
{{incomplete|When does it stop in Ultimate?}}
The crowd can occasionally be heard cheering by shouting the name of a [[character]] that is used by a human player. The cause of cheering, however, is not entirely known; common trends include having high [[damage]], the start of the match after the [[announcer]] gives the "GO!" signal, and doing something significant, such as [[KO]]ing multiple opponents at once, or falling behind considerably during the course of a match. Every character has a unique cheer chant in each of the ''Smash Bros.'' games.


In addition to chants, the crowd can also vocalize during the match to a variety of events. In the original game, if a player can just make it back to the [[stage]] after being [[knockback|knocked]] far away from the stage, the crowd will cheer for the player. The crowd also cheers if {{SSB|Ness}} absorbs a projectile with [[PSI Magnet]], as well as if a character hits multiple characters or lands a powerful hit. Since ''Melee'', the crowd will gasp if the player gets close to the ledge after getting knocked off and cheer loudly if the player hits multiple opponents with a powerful attack. In addition, in ''Melee'', the crowd cheers the player if they complete the [[Target Test]], an [[Event Match]] or the {{SSBM|Race to the Finish}}. However, they will groan should the player fail at any of these games. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', the crowd will also gasp whenever a [[Smash Ball]] or Legendary [[Poké Ball|Pokémon]] appears (only in Brawl), with the exception of [[Latias and Latios]]. In ''SSB4'', the crowd will groan if a player finishes with no points in the [[Home-Run Contest]] or [[Target Blast]]. In ''Melee'' and ''Brawl'', the crowd will be silent during [[Sudden Death]].

Despite their presence, the crowd has no effect on gameplay outside of the [[Bonus (mode)|Bonus mode]] of ''Melee'': if the player earns the "Crowd Favorite" bonus from getting the crowd to cheer for them or the "Master of Suspense" bonus from causing the crowd to gasp at least three times in one minute, they will earn 2500 points from each.
*[[Luigi (SSB)]]: Luigi!!


Of further note, the crowd seems to "disappear" after a certain point is reached in some of the singleplayer modes. In ''Melee'', the crowd disappears starting at {{SSBM|Race to the Finish}} and at Stage 12: Final Destination in the [[Adventure Mode]]. In ''Brawl'', the crowd disappears during the fight against {{SSBB|Master Hand}}, and is only heard when certain stages are cleared in the [[Subspace Emissary]]. In ''SSB4'', the crowd disappears during the fight against {{SSB4|Master Hand}} and, if applicable, {{SSB4|Crazy Hand}} and [[Master Core]].
*[[Mario (SSB)]]: Mario!!


Strangely, the character-specific crowd cheers can actually be heard in Training Mode in ''SSB4'', but not in other ''Smash Bros.'' titles.
*[[Donkey Kong (SSB)]]: Donkey Kong!!


In ''Smash 64'' and ''Melee'', only an English and a Japanese crowd are available. Starting from ''Brawl'', crowd cheers are performed in each language the [[announcer]] is also voiced in, and are appropriately localized using the names of the characters in each language. Certain cheers might also use entire phrases or language-specific puns and cultural references.
*[[Link (SSB)]]: Go, Link!!!


==Crowd cheers==
*[[Samus (SSB)]]: Samus!!!

==Trivia==
*[[Captain Falcon (SSB)]]: Falcon!!!
*In ''Melee'', Bill Trinen, Tim O'Leary, and Nate Bihldorff, who worked on the localization of the game, are also credited for providing the voices of the crowd cheers. In other games, it is not mentioned at all who performed the crowd cheers.
*In ''Melee'', the crowd will always gasp if {{SSBM|Peach}} performs an [[air dodge]] at the peak of her [[jump]].
