Several also make reference to the newcomers' concurrently-released [[List of Super Smash Bros. 4 character trailers|reveal trailers]].

For ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', only {{SSBU|Inkling}}, {{SSBU|Joker}}, {{SSBU|Terry}}, {{SSBU|Min Min}}, {{SSBU|Pyra}}/ {{SSBU|Mythra}}, and {{SSBU|Kazuya}} received posters, rather than every newcomer in the game. However, a similar concept was used for the [[Smash Bros. Countdown]].
