For ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4 | For ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', '''posters''' have been released for all of the newcomer playable characters. These pieces of artwork are revealed on the game's [[Super Smash Bros. 4 Official Site|official site]] along with the characters' confirmations, and are sometimes highlighted in [[Nintendo Direct]]s or [[Masahiro Sakurai]]'s [[List of Director's Room Miiverse posts|Miiverse posts]]. In addition to their appearance in digital form, prints of several of the posters were also made available as rewards through the {{s|wikipedia|Club Nintendo}} program prior to its discontinuation. | ||
The posters generally feature a newcomer and several veterans. The posters are generally set in a location evocative of the newcomer's home series, resemble cover or promotional artwork from their source games, and/or are illustrated by an artist who worked on their home series. Several also make reference to the newcomers' concurrently-released [[List of Super Smash Bros. 4 character trailers|reveal trailers]]. | The posters generally feature a newcomer and several veterans.

Little Mac was revealed on February 13th, 2014. Little Mac's poster is based on the design of the arcade cabinet of the original ''{{iw|wikipedia|Punch-Out!!|arcade game}}''. The top screen of the cabinet uses the same HUD and design style as the arcade game, but with the modern Little Mac design replacing the original portrait of "Challenger", and with {{SSB4|Donkey Kong}} as the champion opponent. Donkey Kong's appearance as the opponent is based on his role as the final, hidden boss of ''{{iw|wikipedia|Punch-Out!!|Wii}}'' on Wii; the arcade board indicates that the two have fought before, as the match is labeled "Fight #2". The bottom screen of the cabinet is a screenshot of two characters fighting on [[Boxing Ring]], posed to resemble the gameplay of the arcade ''Punch-Out!!'' games. | Little Mac was revealed on February 13th, 2014.
