Based on The Sounds Resource's "article" files; Need some research
(→Notable players: Being the best Dark Samus in the world, YB hasn't attended any notable tournaments after the Prime Saga and MSM that followed afterwards. Maybe this is similar to Gungnir's case in Smash 4..) |

'''Dark Samus''' ({{ja|ダークサムス|Dāku Samusu}}, ''Dark Samus'') is a playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. She was announced as a newcomer during the August 8th, 2018 [[Nintendo Direct|Super Smash Bros. Direct]] alongside {{SSBU|Simon}}, {{SSBU|Richter}}, {{SSBU|Chrom}}, and {{SSBU|King K. Rool}}. Unlike in ''Brawl'', Dark Samus's model is once again based on her appearance in ''Metroid Prime 3: Corruption''. She is an [[Clone|Echo Fighter]] of {{SSBU|Samus}}, thus being classified as Fighter #04ε. | '''Dark Samus''' ({{ja|ダークサムス|Dāku Samusu}}, ''Dark Samus'') is a playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros.

*While {{SSBU|Dark Pit}} and {{SSBU|Dr. Mario}}'s internal file names have an alphabet attached to back of their base counterparts' names (being "Pitb" and "Mariod" respectively) to distinguish themselves in both ''Smash 4'' and ''Ultimate'', Dark Samus, uniquely, uses "DSamus" rather than "Samusd". | |||
**Much like Daisy's base fighter, {{SSBU|Peach}}, having had Daisy-based alternate costumes in all of her previous appearances, Dark Samus's base fighter, Samus, had a Dark Samus-based color scheme in ''Smash 4''. This color was removed in ''Ultimate'', likely to make it easier to distinguish Samus and Dark Samus. This scenario is similar to Ike's loss of his Chrom-inspired alternate color scheme following the character's inclusion in the roster come ''Ultimate''. Incidentally, all of these characters are echo fighters. | **Much like Daisy's base fighter, {{SSBU|Peach}}, having had Daisy-based alternate costumes in all of her previous appearances, Dark Samus's base fighter, Samus, had a Dark Samus-based color scheme in ''Smash 4''.

*If Dark Samus is firing a shooting item, such as a [[Ray Gun]] or [[Fire Flower]], or wielding a [[Daybreak]] and is moving around with it, the sounds of her walking can be heard despite the fact that she floats while holding it. This is possibly due to an oversight. | *If Dark Samus is firing a shooting item, such as a [[Ray Gun]] or [[Fire Flower]], or wielding a [[Daybreak]] and is moving around with it, the sounds of her walking can be heard despite the fact that she floats while holding it.
