{{Main|Fighter}}
There are currently 89 (if Pokémon Trainer's Pokémon count as three characters, and Mii fighters count as three characters) playable characters in total. ''Smash 64'' has 12, ''Melee'' has 26 (if Sheik is put separate from Zelda), ''Brawl'' has 39 (if Zero Suit Samus and Sheik are put separate from Samus and Zelda, respectively, and the Pokémon Trainer's Pokémon count as three characters), and ''Smash 4'' has 58 (51 on disc and 7 downloadable), almost five times the amount in ''Smash 64''. ''Ultimate'' uniquely brings back all of the characters from past games, as well as 24 newcomers. However, without counting [[DLC]], ''Ultimate'' has 74 playable characters (counting Pokémon Trainer as one character) and like in Smash 4, Samus, Zero Suit Samus, Zelda, and Sheik are all separate characters (so Samus can no longer transform into Zero Suit Samus; while Zelda can no longer transform into Sheik). Many of the characters are available from the start, but some are unlockable, meaning certain conditions must be met before they can be played as.

'''Sandbag''' ({{ja|サンドバッグくん|Sandobaggu-kun}}, ''Sandobaggu-kun'') appears in the "[[Home-Run Contest]]" minigame in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'', ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', ''Super Smash Bros. 4'', and ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''. The object is to strike it as far as possible with either a supplied [[Home-Run Bat]] or a fighting move. Sandbag's only purpose is to get hit in the Home-Run Contest. Being hit all the time does not hurt it; it actually loves to see players "wind up and let loose," according to the trophy description. During the actual Home-Run Contest challenge, a player will use their chosen character to hit Sandbag off the pedestal on which it rests within ten seconds. Players damage Sandbag as much as possible while keeping on the orange platform so that it will fly farther. In ''Brawl'', the "Home-Run Contest" also features two-player modes, online play, and a shield that keeps Sandbag on the platform while it is being damaged. Players may also practice by attacking Sandbag while online multiplayer matches load.

==Trivia==
*Masahiro Sakurai stated in a [[YouTube]] video that Satoru Iwata came up with the title of ''Super Smash Bros.'' ({{ja|大乱闘スマッシュブラザーズ|Dairantō Smash Brothers}} in Japanese). Iwata explained that while very few of the characters in the game are canonically brothers, the title implied that the characters had personal connections and were not simply fighting each other for no reason, as if they were all friends settling a little disagreement.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o2wYKkqhkG0&t=227s Mr. Iwata <nowiki>[Grab Bag]</nowiki>]</ref>
