{{cquote|''The Heart Container recovers all of your strength, returning your Damage Meter to 0%.''|cite=''Super Smash Bros.''{{'}}s instruction manual}}
The '''Heart Container''' ({{ja|ハートのうつわ|Hāto no Utsuwa}}, ''Heart Container''), known simply as '''Heart''' in the original ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'', is an [[item]] that will reduce the [[damage]] of the character who picks it up. Its operation has remained functionally identical, but the nuances of its healing have changed in some of the games.


==Origin==
The '''Heart Container''' ({{ja|ハートのうつわ}}, ''hāto no utsuwa''), known simply as '''Heart''' in ''[[Smash 64]]'', is an [[item]] that will reduce the [[damage]] of the character who picks it up. In ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'', the Heart Container will reduce a character's damage meter to 0%, but in all Smash Bros. games after it, it only heals 100% worth of damage. In the original and ''Melee'', a player cannot take any damage for the short amount of time that the heart spends replenishing health, though in ''Brawl'' any damage received during healing will be subtracted from the 100%. In ''Melee'' and ''Brawl'', the frequency of an Heart Container appearing on stage is quite rare compared to other items.
[[File:Heart Container TLoZ.png|thumb|left|A Heart Container (to the right of Link), as it originally appeared in ''The Legend of Zelda''.]]
The Heart Container made its first appearance in ''[[The Legend of Zelda]]''. At the beginning of ''The Legend of Zelda'', Link starts off with a maximum health capacity of three hearts. When Link finds a Heart Container, it gives him another heart of capacity, allowing him to sustain more damage before dying. Since its debut, Link is often awarded with a Heart Container after defeating a {{s|zeldawiki|dungeon}}'s boss. Starting in ''{{iw|zeldawiki|The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening}}'', Heart Containers would also replenish Link's health to full upon collection. In ''Super Smash Bros.'' and ''Melee'', the Heart Container's design is based around ''Ocarina of Time''{{'}}s Heart Containers. Its appearance changed in ''Brawl'' to the design in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess]]'', like most ''Zelda'' content. The design of the Heart Container changed once again in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'' to match its appearance in ''{{s|zeldawiki|The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword}}'', giving it a slightly thicker and more detailed aesthetic. The Heart Container retains its ''Skyward Sword'' design, also used in ''{{s|zeldawiki|The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild}}'', in ''Ultimate''.

==In ''Super Smash Bros.''==
In the [[All Star]] and [[Boss Battles]] modes, there are special Heart Containers which will heal 999 points of damage instead of 100 points.
[[File:HeartContainerIconSSB.png|thumb|Heart Container in ''[[Smash 64]]''.]]
* In Melee and Brawl there are 3 special Heart Containers (5 if playing Co-Op), whereas in Smash 4 there is only one, along with a [[Fairy Bottle]] and a [[Maxim Tomato]] making for more strategic usage.
Heart Containers take on their appearance from ''The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time''. They spawn above the ground and float down slowly, creating a delay before they land. While this has little effect in later games since in them, items can be grabbed in the air, it means that in the original ''Super Smash Bros.'' players must fight for the area where it will land as it falls.


Once grabbed, the Heart Container heals the user, recovering damage all the way down to 0% (even if the player is hit during this time).

{{clear}}


In ''Super Smash Bros.'' consuming at least two or three Heart Containers in a match (respectively) gives the player the Heartthrob bonus, worth 17,000 points in ''SSB'' (8,000 points in the Japanese version of ''SSB'') and 2,800 points in ''Melee''. As the Heart Container is the only healing item in ''Melee'' that is not also a "food" item, consuming three Heart Containers is the only way to attain the Wimp bonus, worth 1,500 points; as a result, the Wimp bonus always overlaps with Heartthrob.
==In the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series==
{{clr}}
===''[[Super Smash Bros.]]''===
In ''Super Smash Bros.'', a Heart Container will heal all damage up to 999%.


==In ''Super Smash Bros. Melee''==
===''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''===
[[File:HeartcontainerSSBM.png|thumb|Heart Container in ''[[Melee]]'' on {{SSBM|Final Destination}}.]]
In ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'', Heart Containers reduces 100% damage when used in battles.  
Heart Containers again take on their appearance from ''The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time''. Heart Containers function similarly to ''64''. However, it now only heals a total of 100%. The player is given three Heart Containers in the [[All-Star Rest Area]] that can heal all of their damage instead of the standard 100%. Due to a glitch, entering the teleporter in ''Melee'' will interrupt the Heart Container's healing and thus not fully heal the player. Completing All-Star Mode in ''Melee'' without using a Heart Container or Continuing gives the player the Melee Master bonus, worth 100,000 points.


===Trophy===
In ''SSBM'''s [[All-Star Mode]], every character must be fought consecutively with only three special Heart Containers used to heal between matches. In this mode, they will completely heal the character. If the player enters the teleporter before they finish healing, it stops prematurely. If the player makes it through all of All-Star mode without using a single Heart Container or a continue, then they receive the ''Melee Master'' bonus, which is worth 100,000 points.
The Heart Container appears as a collectable trophy.

==In ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''==
===''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''===
[[File:HeartcontainerSSBB.jpg|thumb|Heart Container in ''[[Brawl]]'' on {{SSBB|Final Destination}}.]]
Heart Containers in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' are the same as their ''Melee'' counterparts, except the item's design now uses the design from ''The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess''. ''SSBB'''s All-Star and [[Boss Battles Mode]] both include 3 Heart Containers, but 5 are available if co-op play is chosen.
Heart Containers take on their appearance from ''The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess'', and they function the same as in ''Melee''. If [[All Star]] and [[Boss Battles]] are done in [[Co-op mode]], there are more Heart Containers (six instead of three). There are six with the new three Heart Containers appearing under the platforms which the normal three (from solo mode) hold. Heart containers will now fully heal the user in both modes even should they enter the teleporter while healing.


===Trophy===
Zelda series characters can use a Piece of Heart [[sticker]] that will add an additional 50% to the Heart Container's healing effect in [[Subspace Emissary]] mode, for a total of 150%.
The Heart Container appears as a collectable trophy.

===Sticker===
In All-Star and Boss Battles Mode, Heart Containers heal all health, the same way they do in ''Melee'', and do not stop healing too early if the player enters the teleporter before it's finished.
A sticker depicting a Piece of Heart Container can be attained in ''Brawl''. Usable only by {{SSBB|Link}}, {{SSBB|Zelda}}, {{SSBB|Ganondorf}} and {{SSBB|Toon Link}}, the sticker causes Heart Containers to heal 150% damage instead of only 100% damage.

==Description from the ''Super Smash Bros.'' Instruction Booklet==
[[File:KirbyHatPeach.png|thumb|{{SSB4|Meta Knight}} and {{SSB4|Kirby}} standing next to a Heart Container in ''for Wii U''.]]
''The Heart Container recovers all of your strength, returning your Damage Meter to 0%.''
Heart Containers take on their appearance from ''The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword'', and they function the same as in ''Brawl''. Heart Containers are not affected by [[equipment]] that increases damage healed in ''SSB4'', as they are not "food". This classification goes to the [[Fairy Bottle]] too. In ''Smash 4's'' All-Star Mode, the player receives only one Heart Container initially and gets two if playing after unlocking all characters, but they also receive a [[Maxim Tomato]] and [[Fairy Bottle]].


===Vs. Master Fortress===
==Trophy Information==
In ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'', a Heart Container will drop on the stage when [[Master Fortress]] appears, which fully heals the player like in All-Star Mode. It can be left alone and used in later phases, if the player returns to the stage proper.

|desc-pal=A quintessential item from the Legend of Zelda series that raises your max health. In those games, you have to defeat bosses to get them, but in this one, they'll just fall from the sky, which makes things a whole lot easier. If you see one, grab it quick – in mid-air if you can! Why? To take 100 off your damage – that's why!

===In World of Light===
In the second phase of the [[Final stage (World of Light)|final stage]] of [[World of Light]], a Heart Container spawns on the stage after every 2 [[boss]]es that are defeated.
