Trivia

• Sonic is the first third-party character to appear in more than one Smash game.
• Whereas Sonic's model in Brawl showed him with a centered mouth, his mouth is now on the side of his face, reminiscent of his non-Smash appearances.
• He is the only veteran with a trailer, and the only trailer character without the trailer on the official website.
