'''''Mr. Sakurai Presents''''' ({{ja|のつかいかた|No Tsukai Kata}}, ''How to Use''), known as '''''Battling with''''' in Europe and Oceania, is a series of unscripted video presentations hosted by ''{{b|Super Smash Bros.|series}}'' series director [[Masahiro Sakurai]] | '''''Mr. Sakurai Presents''''' ({{ja|のつかいかた|No Tsukai Kata}}, ''How to Use''), known as '''''Battling with''''' in Europe and Oceania, is a series of unscripted video presentations hosted by ''{{b|Super Smash Bros.|series}}'' series director [[Masahiro Sakurai]] at irregular intervals which detail upcoming {{SSBU|downloadable content}} for ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. These presentations are similar to [[Nintendo Direct|''Super Smash Bros.'' Directs]], though they feature lower budgets than a traditional Direct. These presentations also briefly discuss the history of the series and how it was adapted to ''Ultimate''. Sakurai revealed in an interview that the format for Mr. Sakurai Presents was suggested by Nintendo due to [[#New Content Approaching (Joker)|Joker's introduction video]] being unexpectedly expensive.<ref>https://twitter.com/KodyNOKOLO/status/1455945465409773577</ref> | ||
The presentations for the Fighters Pass Vol. 1 characters took place inside Sakurai's studio, featuring an English voiceover in the North American versions. However, due to the [[COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on competitive Smash|COVID-19 pandemic]], the format of the presentations for Fighters Pass Vol. 2 was slightly changed, with {{SSBU|Min Min}}, {{SSBU|Steve}}, and {{SSBU|Pyra}}/{{SSBU|Mythra}}'s presentations taking place in Sakurai's house and all of them having subtitles for all overseas versions. | The presentations for the Fighters Pass Vol. 1 characters took place inside Sakurai's studio, featuring an English voiceover in the North American versions.

[[Fighter ability|Unique mechanics for certain characters]], like Hero's [[MP Gauge]], Terry's command inputs, or Steve's mining and crafting abilities, are also shown off and explained.

For Byleth, Pyra/Mythra, and Kazuya, he played [[Squad Strike]]. For Steve, he played a few [[spirit]] battles on his [[DLC Spirits (mode)|DLC Spirit Board]]. | ||

*'''Version [update number]''': After discussing the main content of the DLC, Sakurai then talks about the update that will release with the DLC and the extra content that comes in it, including new modes (like [[Stage Builder]] and [[Home-Run Contest]]) as well as smaller changes (like a time limit for the [[Final Smash Meter]]).

After the logo of the costume's game is shown next to the ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' logo, the costume is then shown in action, usually with music from their series usually accompanying them. In the case of special Mii Fighter costumes (like [[Sans]], [[Cuphead]] and [[Vault Boy]]), a small cinematic is usually shown before their game's logo appears, similar to an actual reveal trailer. After all {{SSBU|Mii Fighter}} costumes are shown individually, they are all shown together at the end. In Sans, Cuphead, Vault Boy, [[Bomberman]], [[Shantae]], [[Dragonborn]], and [[Doom Slayer]]'s cases, after the trailer ends, Sakurai briefly talks about their inclusion and, in the cases of Sans, Cuphead, and Shantae, the music tracks that come with them. In Sephiroth's and Sora's presentations, Sakurai started with the Mii Fighter costumes rather than showing them at the end. | ||
*'''amiibo''': Towards the very end of the presentation, Sakurai shows what ''Super Smash Bros.'' series [[amiibo]] are next in line for release and when they will release. This segment was not in Sephiroth or Pyra/Mythra's presentation, however, likely due to a previously-announced amiibo wave not having released yet. | *'''amiibo''': Towards the very end of the presentation, Sakurai shows what ''Super Smash Bros.'' series [[amiibo]] are next in line for release and when they will release.

***The Mii Fighter costume section uses the standard Battlefield remix of Lifelight (otherwise heard at the beginning and end of the section), rather than any of the ''Dragon Quest'' music; it is the only presentation to have no other music in the Mii Fighter costume section, due to there only being ''Dragon Quest''-based Mii costumes included in update 4.0.0. Both of these are likely due to the ''Dragon Quest'' music being owned by the late series composer {{s|wikipedia|Koichi Sugiyama}}, rather than [[Square Enix]]. | ***The Mii Fighter costume section uses the standard Battlefield remix of Lifelight (otherwise heard at the beginning and end of the section), rather than any of the ''Dragon Quest'' music; it is the only presentation to have no other music in the Mii Fighter costume section, due to there only being ''Dragon Quest''-based Mii costumes included in update 4.0.0.

*When justifying the absence of {{s|wikipedia|Mai Shiranui}}—a character largely recognised for her revealing outfit—as a background character in King of Fighters Stadium, Sakurai jokingly stated that "''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' is for good boys and girls of many different ages". The statement quickly became memetic within the community, partly since it contradictorily does not account for characters who possess similarly revealing outfits, such as {{SSBU|Zero Suit Samus}} and {{SSBU|Bayonetta}}, as well as characters that come from a primarily M-rated franchise, such as {{SSBU|Snake}} and {{SSBU|Joker}}. | *When justifying the absence of {{s|wikipedia|Mai Shiranui}}—a character largely recognised for her revealing outfit—as a background character in King of Fighters Stadium, Sakurai jokingly stated that "''Super Smash Bros.
