==Trivia== | ==Trivia== | ||
* | *The [https://e3.nintendo.com/assets/logo-smash-invitational.svg logo] featured on Nintendo's E3 website is unusually titled "logo FINAL?" in the browser tab title. | ||
**This could be related to the fact that Super Smash Bros. is stated to be the game’s tentative title. | |||
**This could also be related to the fact that in standard business practice companies tend to save files with names based on their progress. "FINAL?" could simply mean it was saved as the logo itself could have undergone further editing. | |||
* | *{{Sm|ZeRo}} is the only invited player to be returning from the first Invitational, of which he won. | ||
