In ''Melee'', all characters, with exception of {{SSBM|Mr. Game & Watch}}, have a unique [[tumbling]] animation for when they crash into the screen; upon striking the camera, the character also exclaims one of their two strong knockback yells (with the exception of {{SSBM|Samus}}), then gets KO'd by the bottom blast line without making any sounds. How close a character being KO'd is to the camera is no longer determined by randomness, but by the stage being played on. On {{SSBM|Mushroom Kingdom}} and [[Mushroom Kingdom II]], for example, Screen KO'd characters are very close to the camera and thus appear much larger. With the introduction of [[Coin Battle]]s, Screen KO'd characters also visibly drop numerous coins when they hit the screen. | In ''Melee'', all characters, with exception of {{SSBM|Mr. Game & Watch}}, have a unique [[tumbling]] animation for when they crash into the screen; upon striking the camera, the character also exclaims one of their two strong knockback yells (with the exception of {{SSBM|Samus}}), then gets KO'd by the bottom blast line without making any sounds.

*In ''SSB4'', when a character gets Screen KO'd, all of the remaining fighters' player indicator icons disappear until the character that is being Screen KO'd is actually KO'd (when the numbers on the [[damage meter]] break). This also includes CPU and amiibo fighters. The camera will also shift to a random position. | *In ''SSB4'', when a character gets Screen KO'd, all of the remaining fighters' player indicator icons disappear until the character that is being Screen KO'd is actually KO'd (when the numbers on the [[damage meter]] break).

*In ''SSB4'' and ''Ultimate'', [[Pit]] has two subtle Screen KO differences, depending on how his bow was last used: one with him holding his bow in his right hand, and the other with him holding the two separated parts of his bow as blades.

*In the Wii U version of ''SSB4'' and in ''Ultimate'', Mario, Kirby, Pikachu, and Dr. Mario use unique models during their Screen KO since their bodies are pressed flat as if hitting a glass pane; however, Mario and his clone Dr. Mario only have a model for their heads, while Kirby and Pikachu have their bodies. | *In the Wii U version of ''SSB4'' and in ''Ultimate'', Mario, Kirby, Pikachu, and Dr. Mario use unique models during their Screen KO since, their bodies are pressed flat as if hitting a glass pane; however, Mario and his clone Dr. Mario only have a model for their heads, while Kirby and Pikachu have ones for their entire bodies. | ||

*In ''SSB4'', {{SSB4|Bowser}} and {{SSB4|Donkey Kong}} are the only characters to fall back when Screen KO'd, as all the other characters just slide off the screen. ''Ultimate'' later adds {{SSBU|King K. Rool}}.

**Bowser's Screen KO in ''SSB4'' and ''Ultimate'' may be a reference to the ending of ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'' where, after his airborne castle explodes, he's launched out of it, thereby "literally" breaking the fourth wall. | |||
*In the 3DS version of ''SSB4'', Screen KOs may cause the two images simulating the screen's 3D effect to be misaligned.
