*The Dark Link that the player faces is just simply Link colored solid black rather than the Dark Link [[Palette swap (SSBB)#Link|alternate recolor]]. However, Dark Link's stamina meter does depict Dark Link's alternate costume.
*A Co-op event, [[Co-Op Event 7: Battle of the Dark Sides|Battle of the Dark Sides]], is used in the same concept, but instead, the players are as Link and Samus, pitted against Dark Link and Dark Samus. However, the events are on the same stage with the same music, and share very similar Japanese names.
**Because of this, Dark Link looks similar to the "Game & Watch" forms of certain characters seen in [[Event 35: The Visitor to Flat Zone]].
*[[Doppelgänger Duel]] in ''[[Smash 4]]'' is a similar event to Dark Link Duel except that it consists of {{SSB4|Pit}} and {{SSB4|Dark Pit}} and the player plays the Dark character instead.
*In ''Zelda II'', which is the game that included the full black Dark Link, Dark Link appeared to be Link's shadow, however, in ''Brawl'', both Link and Dark Link have shadows.
 
*Coincidentally, the event number is the same number as a [[Event 18: Link's Adventure|similar event]] in ''Melee''.
*A Co-op event, [[Co-Op Event 7: Battle of the Dark Sides]] is used in the same concept, but instead you play as Link and Samus, while versing Dark Link and Dark Samus. However, you are on the same stage with the same music.
