The '''Heart Container''' (Japanese: {{ja|ハートのうつわ}}, ''hāto no utsuwa'') is an [[item]] that will reduce the [[damage]] of the character who picks it up. In ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'', the Heart Container reduces a character's damage to 0%, but in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee|Melee]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl|Brawl]]'', it only recovers 100%. In the original and ''Melee'', a player cannot take any damage for the short amount of time that the heart spends replenishing health. In ''Brawl'', any damage received will be subtracted from 100% and it will still heal the player.

The Heart Container made its first appearance in ''[[The Legend of Zelda]]''. At the beginning of ''The Legend of Zelda'', Link starts off with three hearts. When Link finds a Heart Container, it gives him another heart; however, it was not used to replenish his health. In ''[[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening|The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening]]'', when Link finds a Heart Container, it gives him another heart and replenishes his health. This was also true in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time]]'' and all future Zelda games. In the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series, the Heart Container is used for lowering 100% percent of damage. This is a reference to the Heart Containers that appear in ''Link's Awakening'' and the ''Zelda'' games afterwards, but it does not completely restore the player's health in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' games. In ''Super Smash Bros.'' and ''Melee'', the Heart Container's design is based around ''Ocarina of Time's'' Heart Containers. Its appearance changed in ''Brawl'' to its design in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess]]''. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kCIireS3AYw]

When Link finds a Heart Container, it gives him another heart, allowing him to sustain more damage per life before dieing. Starting in ''[[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening|The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening]]'' Heart Containers would also replenish Link's health to full upon collection. In ''Super Smash Bros.'' and ''Melee'', the Heart Container's design is based around ''Ocarina of Time's'' Heart Containers.
