Little Mac (リトル・マック, Little Mac) is a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, officially confirmed on June 12th, 2018.
Changes from Super Smash Bros. 4
Aesthetics
As with all veterans returning from SSB4, Little Mac's model features a more subdued color scheme. His clothing now features simple detailing and his muscles are slightly more pronounced.- Little Mac no longer has sixteen alternate costumes, only eight. Of the cut costumes, his blue and orange outfits have been removed, while Wire-Frame Mac has notably been reduced to just two outfits: his standard and sweatshirt outfits.
- Little Mac's side taunt has an altered animation.
- Once KO Uppercut is used or lost, the Power Meter now shows the meter physically draining to zero, rather than cutting immediately to the lowest level.
- Little Mac's clapping animation now features him bruised up.
Attributes
Little Mac is the character that arguably benefits the most from the re-addition of directional air dodges, granting him increased offstage survivability and a new option to mix up his landings.
Ground attacks
- Non-angled forward smash now produces a softer "wind" sound, rather than the sharp punching sound effect used in Smash 4.
Special Moves
- Straight Lunge can now be canceled by shielding.
- Like with most non-storeable charge moves, Straight Lunge can be unleashed in the opposite direction upon releasing the move.
- KO Uppercut has a new animation. Little Mac now performs a jumping uppercut while facing the screen, making it appear more identical to the Star Punch from Punch-Out!! on the NES.
- KO Uppercut's new animation gives the move more vertical range, and also grants recovery distance if used in midair.
Grounded Jolt Haymaker travels a shorter distance.- Grounded Jolt Haymaker makes Little Mac spend less time in the air. He also lands with significantly more traction.
- Aerial Jolt Haymaker no longer renders Little Mac helpless and keeps more forward momentum, thus granting more distance. This significantly improves his recovery and gives him a potent edge guarding tool.
- Aerial Jolt Haymaker can only be used once until Mac touches the ground again, even if he's hit.
- Slip Counter grants less momentum after an aerial counter. This lowers its recovery potential, but makes it less likely that Mac gets accidentally sent offstage by a counter.
- His Final Smash Giga Mac is no longer a transformation, and its now similar to Donkey Kong's new Final Smash.

Trivia
- Little Mac's video on the official website has him follow Wario's motor bike while wearing his pink sweatsuit. This is a reference to the Punch-Out!! series, where Little Mac runs alongside Doc Louis on his bicycle.
- Little Mac's pose in his official art resembles the pose he performs while using Slip Counter.
