==Trivia==
*Captain Falcon, Jigglypuff, Luigi, Ness, Ganondorf, Marth, Toon Link, Lucario, and Sonic are the only unlockable characters to become a starter character in a later installment.
**This also counts Bowser Jr. between the 3DS and Wii U versions of ''Smash 4''.
**Ness and Captain Falcon are the only ones to do so multiple times.
**Sonic is the only third-party fighter to have this trait.
*{{forwiiu}} is the only installment in the series where all of the [[original 12]] characters appear as starters.
*''Smash 4'' is the only game to feature third-party characters as starter characters. In this case, they are Sonic, Mega Man and Pac-Man.
*The [[Sound]] menu in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' plays sound effects and voice clips from three randomly selected characters out of its starter characters, as well as {{SSBU|Ness}} and {{SSBU|Captain Falcon}} to test volume equalization options.
*''Ultimate'' is the only ''Smash'' game to have the same starter roster as a prior installment.
