'''Masterpieces''' ({{ja|名作トライアル|Meisaku Toraiaru}}, ''Masterpiece Trial'') are free time-limited trial versions of classic [[Nintendo]] titles which the [[character]]s of ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' and {{forwiiu}} have appeared in. The full versions can be purchased for the [[Virtual Console]]. To save the player time, Masterpieces skip the title and opening of a game. Certain Masterpieces start at specific points of the game that are relevant to the ''Smash'' game they appear in, such as the ''[[Donkey Kong (game)|Donkey Kong]]'' Masterpiece starting at the [[75m]] level, while games that supported saving have some built-in saves set to various points of the game.

=== Scrapped ===

*A [[Donkey Kong Country]] masterpiece was planned, but it was scrapped. [http://www.unseen64.net/2008/04/04/super-smash-bros-brawl-wii-beta/]

*The Masterpieces for ''EarthBound'' and ''Fire Emblem: Monsho no Nazo'', while not accessible in international versions of ''Brawl'', still exist in the data; the reason Mother 2 is not included is unknown, while Fire Emblem: Monsho no Nazo is due to being a Japan-only game.

 

Masterpieces return in ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U''. New features include a timer displayed on the right side of the screen, the ability to buy a Masterpiece directly from the game without having to access the Nintendo eShop, the ability to pause the Masterpiece without using the HOME button, and the ability to stop the Masterpiece without the reset button, as the Wii U does not have a reset button. There is also less lag than there was in ''Brawl''. The games featured include:

*Although ''EarthBound'' was released in 1994 in Japan, the PAL version of {{forwiiu}} lists its release date as 2013, which is the year ''EarthBound'' was first released in Europe, on the Nintendo eShop.

*Unlike ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'' features third party masterpieces.

**That being said, {{SSB4|Sonic}} is the only third party character without a masterpiece. However, at the time of  

''Smash Wii U''{{'}}s release, there were no ''Sonic'' games on the Wii U Virtual Console.
