The '''congratulations screen''' is a static image that is shown after the [[credits]] in the international versions of ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'', all versions of ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', and after the [[Character Roll Call]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. In ''Super Smash Bros.'', the screen depicts a scene relating to the character that was used to complete the mode, while in ''Melee'' onwards, the screen depicts a screenshot of the character in gameplay, which is often intended to be humorous.
