In the same vein as ''Zelda'', [[Donkey Kong]] may be listed as either the original arcade Donkey Kong or the modern post-SNES Donkey Kong. If the original Donkey Kong only appears as Cranky Kong, then it will only be listed as an appearance by Cranky Kong.

It is preferred that characters directly appear in-person in order to be considered a cameo, such as [[Samus Aran]] in ''Kirby's Dream Land 3''. Indirect appearances get a little more hazy, but they may be listed if the character makes a visible appearance (e.g. ''F-Zero'' characters appearing as decorations in ''Mario Kart 8'', even though they don't appear in-person), with a rollover note explaining how they appear; due to the nature of the ''WarioWare'' series, all cameos in microgames would fall into this category, so the rollover note isn't necessary. ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'' has an interesting case: while [[Sonic the Hedgehog]] never directly appears, his shoes by the "No Hopers" sign heavily implies the character's presence, so I count it as an indirect cameo here. If a character is only mentioned, it does not count as a cameo; for example, K. Rool Avenue in ''Super Mario Odyssey'' would not count as an appearance of [[King K. Rool]] since it is only a reference to his name. If a character cannot be normally seen in-game or is otherwise dummied out (such as [[Bowser]] in ''Kirby Super Star'', or [[Captain Olimar]] in ''Mario & Luigi: Super Star Saga''), they are not listed here.

Sometimes, a character makes a cameo under a different name (such as [[Dr. Wright]] appearing as "Dr. Write" in ''The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening''). If it's obvious enough that it's supposed to be the same character despite the different name, then it may count as a cameo. In these cases, the character is listed by the name used in ''Smash'', with a rollover note listing their alternate name.
