The '''Credits''' are a feature shown at the end of a game that list the cast and staff members who worked on it. ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' has this feature. ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''{{'}}s has a similar feature, the [[Character Roll Call]], except it lists the [[character]]s, [[item]]s and [[trophy|trophies]] instead. Standard ending credits do appear in ''Brawl'' after completing the [[Subspace Emissary]], though in a different format than its predecessors.

Melee]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', and ''[[Super Smash Bros.

''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' has a similar feature, the [[Character Roll Call]], except it lists the [[character]]s, [[item]]s and [[trophies]] instead. Standard ending credits do appear in ''Brawl'' after completing the [[Subspace Emissary]], though it isn't interactable.

After beating [[1P Game]], the credits will slowly pass by. When shooting a staff name, the screen will pause long enough to let the player read the name of the staff member. By pressing [[Start-Pause button|Start]], the credits will speed up and will not pause if the player shoots them. If the player presses the B Button, then the credits will pause; hitting B again on a name will show the staff member's contributions to the game. Pressing the A or Start buttons or pressing B on a blank space will resume the credits.

If a secret character is not unlocked yet, anything relating to that character will appear as "?????" in the information box; this is presumably done to prevent spoilers.
Anything relating to {{SSB|Ness}}, {{SSB|Captain Falcon}}, {{SSB|Jigglypuff}}, {{SSB|Luigi}}, or {{b|Mushroom Kingdom|SSB}} will appear as question marks in the information box if they are not unlocked yet; this is presumably done to prevent spoilers. Additionally, the voiced [[Poké Ball]] and [[Saffron City]] Pokémon do not have their voice actors credited.

After beating {{SSBM|Classic Mode}}, [[Adventure Mode]] or [[All-Star Mode]], the credits will appear as they do in ''Super Smash Bros.''. However, the credits go by much faster, have different paths that they can move, and do not pause when shot. The background is also different; whereas the original game had a blank, black background, ''Melee'' 's credits feature what appears to be space, as the player travels around tunnels, a giant ''Smash'' logo, and some types of futuristic architecture. As in the previous game, the player can press Start to speed up the credits, as well as use B to pause the action. The game also displays how many credits they successfully hit at the mode's conclusion, though this score is not saved and has no impact on gameplay.

Some credits, such as the voice actors for secret characters, are not immediately available, and only become present when these unlockables are obtained.
The amount of shootable names is different in each version: the Japanese-language versions have 191, the NTSC English-language versions have 190, and the PAL version has 192. 18 names and the extra details of 2 names are not immediately available, and only become present when unlocking fighters or trophies. Some of the voiced Poké Ball Pokémon have voice actor credits as well (Mika Kanai for [[Chikorita]], Yuji Ueda for [[Cyndaquil]] and [[Wobbuffet]], and Shin-ichiro Miki for [[Scizor]]). The presence of a score counter in the credits led to the formation of a [[List of rumors#Toad hoax|hoax]] that was later debunked.
 
Due to the presence of the localisation staff, a higher score can be attained in PAL regions than NTSC regions.

Unlike the previous two games, where the completion of the primary 1P modes resulted in the player seeing the end credits, the ending credits in ''Brawl'' only play when the [[Subspace Emissary]] is completed and after [[Tabuu]] is defeated in subsequent playthroughs of the same Subspace Emissary file. The ending credits in ''Brawl'' are drastically different than the ending credits of ''Melee'', and is more similar to ''Smash 64''. The credits scroll in a more traditional manner, from the bottom of the screen to the top on a black background, and some boxes will also appear during the credits that show different short clips of some movies from The Subspace Emissary. Using the [[GameCube controller]]'s [[C-Stick]] or the [[Classic Controller]]'s right [[control stick]], the player can rotate the credits. The shooting minigames from ''Smash 64'' and ''Melee'' did not return in ''Brawl's'' credits.

The credits return to Classic Mode in both the [[Classic Mode (SSB4-3DS)|3DS]] and [[Classic Mode (SSB4-Wii U)|Wii U]] versions and [[All-Star Mode]], where unlike in the previous games, instead of shooting the names, the player can use their fighter to attack the names. In the background there is a large panel with that fighter's [[ending image]]. However, the photo is hidden by a white texture, and must be uncovered. As the player attacks the names, the hit rectangle flies to the background, removing part of the white texture and revealing chunks of the ending image. The player can speed up the credits by pressing the Start button if they wish, but then can not attack the credits while they are fast-forwarded. The player is awarded 1 Gold per 1% of the image. Also, if 99.99% of the image is revealed, the game may choose to automatically round the score up to 100%. Therefore the most a player can receive is 100 Gold.

The credits return after beating {{SSBU|Classic Mode}}. Unlike the previous installments, it is a scrolling shooter that changes perspective as the player progresses. The player controls their fighter equipped with a [[Super Scope]] to fly around and shoot the names. Charged shots can hit multiple names by passing through them. Players can shoot an explosive item which triggers a [[Smart Bomb]]-like explosion to hit nearby names. Along the way, there will be small spaceships which try to either shoot at the player or get in their way; while they do not impede their progress, being hit will temporarily stun them, preventing them from shooting and potentially causing them to miss names. A score is displayed based on names that were hit and a progress bar with rewards is displayed on the bottom left corner. The progress bar will move towards the rewards as the player shoot the names at five different point thresholds: 100,000 points, 300,000 points, 600,000 points, 1,000,000 and 1,500,000 points. The background is set in space with polygonal landscapes. The camera changes angles when the player progresses in the credits. The player can speed up the credits like in previous ''Smash Bros.'' games, which will likewise render them unable to shoot names (although the player can still fire the Super Scope). After the credits, the fighter's [[Congratulations screen|ending image]] is shown along with the score, but this time, the clear movie scenes don't appear anymore after the final results. Like in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' and ''Brawl'', each character has their own separate music based on their own [[universe]].

The credits also appear after completing [[Adventure Mode: World of Light|World of Light]] and it displays the names. It is set in a black background and the shooting credits game is not in the World of Light's credits. The songs used in the credits for World of Light are Main Theme Piano Solo (If either [[Galeem]] or [[Dharkon]] is defeated) and [[Lifelight]] (If both Galeem and Dharkon are defeated). Main Theme Piano Solo will still play after Lifelight ends in the true ending.

Unlike in ''Smash 4'', post-release content, such as voice actors for other characters from the {{uv|Persona}} universe, is not added in Classic Mode's and World of Light's credits. This is due to keeping the credits high score consistent with previous versions for the former, and due to the length of the video for the latter. However, [[List of updates (SSBU)#3.0.0|Version 3.0.0]] added an option to view the credits in the Help menu, which includes content from DLC. Help's credits is set in a black background similar to World of Light's, and lets the player pause with the A button and fast forward/rewind using the control stick.

Latest revision as of 18:17, December 16, 2024

The credits are a feature shown at the end of a game that list the cast and staff members who worked on it. Super Smash Bros., Super Smash Bros. Melee, Super Smash Bros. 4, and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate have interactable credits that allow the player to (depending on the game) view more details about an individual, earn Gold, or increase their score. Super Smash Bros. Brawl has a similar feature, the Character Roll Call, except it lists the characters, items and trophies instead. Standard ending credits do appear in Brawl after completing the Subspace Emissary, though it isn't interactable.

In Super Smash Bros.[edit]

Main article: List of staff (SSB)
Ending Credits in Smash 64.

After beating 1P Game, the credits will slowly pass by. When shooting a staff name, the screen will pause long enough to let the player read the name of the staff member. By pressing Start, the credits will speed up and will not pause if the player shoots them. If the player presses the B Button, then the credits will pause; hitting B again on a name will show the staff member's contributions to the game. Pressing the A or Start buttons or pressing B on a blank space will resume the credits.

Anything relating to Ness, Captain Falcon, Jigglypuff, Luigi, or Mushroom Kingdom will appear as question marks in the information box if they are not unlocked yet; this is presumably done to prevent spoilers. Additionally, the voiced Poké Ball and Saffron City Pokémon do not have their voice actors credited.

A remix of the track that plays in the credits from SSB appears as an unlockable CD in Brawl.

In Super Smash Bros. Melee[edit]

Main article: List of staff (SSBM)
At the end of the credits, the player is told how many credits they hit.

After beating Classic Mode, Adventure Mode or All-Star Mode, the credits will appear as they do in Super Smash Bros. However, the credits go by much faster, have different paths that they can move, and do not pause when shot. The background is also different; whereas the original game had a blank, black background, Melee's credits feature what appears to be space, as the player travels around tunnels, a giant Smash logo, and some types of futuristic architecture. As in the previous game, the player can press Start to speed up the credits, as well as use B to pause the action. The game also displays how many credits they successfully hit at the mode's conclusion, though this score is not saved and has no impact on gameplay.

The amount of shootable names is different in each version: the Japanese-language versions have 191, the NTSC English-language versions have 190, and the PAL version has 192. 18 names and the extra details of 2 names are not immediately available, and only become present when unlocking fighters or trophies. Some of the voiced Poké Ball Pokémon have voice actor credits as well (Mika Kanai for Chikorita, Yuji Ueda for Cyndaquil and Wobbuffet, and Shin-ichiro Miki for Scizor). The presence of a score counter in the credits led to the formation of a hoax that was later debunked.

Music[edit]

The ending credits in Melee have unique songs for each character, with each one being rooted in their respective universe. Listed below are the tracks that play for each character.

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl[edit]

Main article: List of staff (SSBB)
Credits in Brawl.
Main article: Character Roll Call

Unlike the other games, where the completion of the primary 1P modes resulted in the player seeing the end credits, the ending credits in Brawl only play when the Subspace Emissary is completed and after Tabuu is defeated in subsequent playthroughs of the same Subspace Emissary file. The credits scroll in a more traditional manner, from the bottom of the screen to the top on a black background, and some boxes will also appear during the credits that show different short clips of some movies from The Subspace Emissary. Another difference is that the voice actors do not have their specific roles credited. Using the GameCube controller's C-Stick or the Classic Controller's right control stick, the player can rotate the credits.

The music that plays during Brawl's ending credits is Credits.

At the end of Classic Mode and All-Star Mode, the player instead views the Character Roll Call, which inherited the shooting elements of Smash 64 and Melee's ending credit rolls.

In Super Smash Bros. 4[edit]

SSB3DSCredits.jpgSSB4Credits.jpg
Magnify-clip.pngMagnify-clip.png
Left: The credits in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS.
Right: The credits in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U.

The credits return to Classic Mode in both the 3DS and Wii U versions and All-Star Mode, where unlike in the previous games, instead of shooting the names, the player can use their fighter to attack the names. In the background there is a large panel with that fighter's ending image. However, the photo is hidden by a white texture, and must be uncovered. As the player attacks the names, the hit rectangle flies to the background, removing part of the white texture and revealing chunks of the ending image. The player can speed up the credits by pressing the Start button if they wish, but then can not attack the credits while they are fast-forwarded. The player is awarded 1 Gold per 1% of the image. Also, if 99.99% of the image is revealed, the game may choose to automatically round the score up to 100%. Therefore the most a player can receive is 100 Gold.

The background panel does not stay in place, slowly moving up and down throughout the minigame, requiring the player to adjust their attacks accordingly.

In the Wii U version, some of the credits scroll left, instead of all of them scrolling up. As a result, it is more difficult to get a perfect score in the Wii U version than the 3DS version; to alleviate this, Screw Attacks, X Bombs, Super Mushrooms, and Smart Bombs that do not hurt the user can float by on balloons, which can be popped to release the item for use.

The credits music, again entitled Credits, consists of a medley of main themes from all four games of the Super Smash Bros. series, arranged by Torine.

Version 1.0.6 of Smash 4 added additional credits for post-release content, such as voice actors for downloadable characters. If such content is available, then extra credits will appear in the minigame, granting more opportunities for players to complete the image.

In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate[edit]

Main article: List of staff (SSBU)
The credits in Ultimate with Pikachu after finishing Classic Mode.

The credits return after beating Classic Mode. Unlike the previous installments, it is a scrolling shooter that changes perspective as the player progresses. The player controls their fighter equipped with a Super Scope to fly around and shoot the names. Charged shots can hit multiple names by passing through them. Players can shoot an explosive item which triggers a Smart Bomb-like explosion to hit nearby names. Along the way, there will be small spaceships which try to either shoot at the player or get in their way; while they do not impede their progress, being hit will temporarily stun them, preventing them from shooting and potentially causing them to miss names. A score is displayed based on names that were hit and a progress bar with rewards is displayed on the bottom left corner. The progress bar will move towards the rewards as the player shoots the names at five different point thresholds: 100,000 points, 300,000 points, 600,000 points, 1,000,000 points and 1,500,000 points. The background is set in space with polygonal landscapes. The camera changes angles when the player progresses in the credits. The player can speed up the credits like in previous Smash Bros. games, which will likewise render them unable to shoot names (although the player can still fire the Super Scope). After the credits, the fighter's ending image can only appear before the final results screen just like in Smash 64. Like in Melee and Brawl, each character has their own separate music based on their own universe.

The credits also appear after completing World of Light and it displays the names. It is set in a black background and the shooting credits game is not in the World of Light's credits. The songs used in the credits for World of Light are Main Theme Piano Solo (If either Galeem or Dharkon is defeated) and Lifelight (If both Galeem and Dharkon are defeated). Main Theme Piano Solo will still play after Lifelight ends in the true ending.

Unlike in Smash 4, post-release content, such as voice actors for other characters from the Persona universe, is not added in Classic Mode's and World of Light's credits. This is due to keeping the credits high score consistent with previous versions for the former, and due to the length of the video for the latter. However, version 3.0.0 added an option to view the credits in the Help menu, which includes content from DLC. The Help menu's credits are set on a black background similar to the World of Light credits, and let the player pause with the A button and fast forward and rewind using the control stick.

Listed below are the tracks that play for each character on Classic Mode's credits.

Trivia[edit]

  • In SSB4, if a character from the Mario series is used in the credits sequence, the font used for "Congratulations" changes to a Mario themed font.
  • In Smash 4, attacking the company logos causes a unique sound: "BANDAI NAMCO Games" and "BANDAI NAMCO Studios" cause a Pac-Man eating sound effect, "Nintendo" causes a Game Boy startup sound effect, and "Sora" causes a crowd cheer. In Ultimate, only the Game Boy startup sound is heard upon shooting the Nintendo logo at the end.
  • In Ultimate, there is a timer starting at 2:33 and counting down throughout the credits. It is purely aesthetic and does not affect anything, stopping exactly at the time the Nintendo logo would finish leaving the screen if not shot.
  • The Hero is the only fighter to use differing music depending on a costume.
  • The first publicised perfect score of the Melee credits was achieved by Porkyz on February 2, 2021 in the NTSC version.[1][2] The feat was done for YouTuber Nathaniel Bandy's $3,000 bounty for the first publicised perfect score.
