| '''Gold''' (known as '''Coins''' in prior to ''Super Smash Bros. 4'') is a type of currency used within ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' for use in various features of the game. Initially having limited uses, later games in the series added several new gameplay modes where it can be used. | | '''Coins''' are a type of currency used within ''Melee'', ''Brawl'', and ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' for use in various features of the game. Their uses are varied; they can be used to attempt to gain trophies via the [[Lottery]] or [[Coin Launcher]] mode, or they can be used to [[Continue]] failed single-player games. In ''Brawl'', the [[Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection|online component]] of the game also relied on coins; players were charged 1 coin if they chose a specific stage over a [[Random]] one, and players could also place bets with coins in the [[Spectator]] mode. |

| ==''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''==
| | Coins are gained through the VS. and Single Player modes, as each battle gives the player some coins. In both cases, players receive coins for the shorter the match lasts, the higher the damage inflicted, and the more attacks they have landed on opponents. ''Melee'' had no other sources to get coins. ''Brawl's'' [[Character Roll Call]] allows players to attain coins by hitting targets on the screen, which was dependent on the difficulty of the mode, and the number of targets hit. The Spectator and Coin Launcher modes can also award coins, though the latter primarily gives a general net loss. |
| Coins debuted in ''Melee'', where they were rewarded after all [[versus]] matches and successful single player modes, with longer matches or better performances leading to more coins. The primary point of interest for Coins was for ''Melee''{{'}}s new [[trophy]] collecting aspect, where Coins could be used to potentially win new trophies in the game's [[Lottery]] mode. In addition, the game's [[Classic Mode (SSBM)|Classic]], [[Adventure]], and [[All-Star]] modes all required varying quantities of Coins for the player to [[Continue]]. The player could own up to 999 coins at once.

|
| There is a bug in ''Melee'' where, when playing as {{SSBM|Zelda}} or {{SSBM|Sheik}}, the amount of coins accumulated in a match is tracked independently between characters. This means that the coins earned by the transformation the player ends the match as will be the only ones added to the player's total coins.
| | The largest number of coins one can have at one time is 999 in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' and 9999 in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. At that point, any extra coins attained in gameplay serve no purpose. |
|
| |
|
| ==''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''==
| | Coins return in {{for3ds}}, where they can be used to buy [[trophies]] in the [[trophy shop]]. |
| ''Brawl'' expanded on the Coins' functionality by allowing them to have an effect on gameplay in the game's various [[Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection|online modes]]; selecting a [[stage]] in the mode would cost the player one coin, though selecting [[Random]] would not cost anything. Coins could also be used in the game's [[Spectator]] mode, with players potentially gambling coins for various awards. Outside of this, Coins reprise their role in the single-player games, though the [[Coin Launcher]] mini-game supplanted ''Melee's'' Lottery. As to make light of their increased number of uses, Coins could also be won in the game's [[Character Roll Call]], and the number of coins the player could have at once was increased to 9,999.

| ==''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''==
| |
| Now known as Gold (usually abbreviated to "G" in-game), the currency returned in both versions of ''Smash 4'', and its uses are again expanded. It is earned and spent in higher quantities than in previous games, with a cap of 999,999,999.
| |
| | |
| Gold is used to adjust the [[difficulty]] of [[Classic Mode (SSB4) (disambiguation)|Classic Mode]], to buy play time in [[Trophy Rush]], to play [[Special Orders]], and to purchase trophies from the [[Trophy Shop]]. As an additional incentive to collect Gold, one of the [[Challenges]] in {{forwiiu}} requires the player to amass 300,000 G. Outside of gambling in Spectator mode, Gold no longer has any use in online play.
| |
| | |
| Like trophies and [[custom part]]s, Gold is commonly obtained as a reward in various solo modes, and for completing certain challenges. [[Equipment]] can also be sold for Gold, and Gold is once again obtainable by simply playing versus matches, though not when playing [[With Anyone]].

| ===Trophy===
| |
| The Gold trophy is exclusive to {{for3ds}}.

| |
| Just like in ''Smash 4'', Gold is obtained as a reward in solo modes and completing challenges. It can be spent to [[continue]] in {{SSBU|Classic Mode}} and purchase items in the [[shop]]. Due to the overall importance of gold being reduced, the amount a player can have at once has been reduced to 9,999,999.

| | |
| In Smash mode, Gold earned is approximately equal to the number of stick inputs (either left stick or right stick) made. For two inputs to count as separate, the stick must return to neutral in between, so for example [[dash-dancing]] will not yield any gold, but [[fox-trotting]] will. Both sticks must be neutral at the same time, so holding one stick and inputting with the other will not yield any gold. Jumping with the control stick (or even tapping it with [[tap jump]] disabled or tilting it) counts, but jumping with the X and Y buttons does not count. The control stick must move approximately 60% away from the center to count (note that it is possible to [[walk]] with less than this amount of movement). Attacks that do not involve a stick input, CPU inputs, and inputs made during [[Sudden Death]] all do not count. Matches that are quit also do not yield any gold, and neither do [[Challenger Approaching]] or [[Challenger's Approach]] matches (regardless of if the player wins or loses). In a match with multiple human players, there appears to be an increasing penalty where each player's inputs count less. In at least some single-player modes, the number of stick inputs appears to be used as a base when determining Gold earned.

| | |
| It is sometimes possible to earn gold without it being ever displayed on-screen, such as when losing a Spirit battle in [[World of Light]]. The only way to see this gold is to check the player's balance afterwards.
| |
| | |
| An achievement in the [[Challenges]] section involves the player acquiring a total of 5,000 gold, with the reward being the [[Yakuman Player]] [[Spirit]].
| |
| | |
| It is possible to obtain 100,000 or more gold from a single VS match, causing the display on the results page to go partially off-screen.
