'''''Metal Slug''''' ({{ja|メタルスラッグ|Metaru Suraggu}}, ''Metal Slug'') is a series of run-and-gun shooters. Known for their fluid animation and two-player co-op gameplay, the series involves a small team of soldiers called the Peregrine Falcons traveling the world to defeat mysterious enemy factions (most notably the military madman General Morden and the Rebel Army and the alien invaders known as Mars People, though in ''Metal Slug 5'' the main enemies are the mysterious Ptolemaic Army and in '' Metal Slug 6'' the Rebel army and the Mars People made a alliance with the Peregrine Falcons to stand over the outbreak of a new alien invasion knows as The Invaders), wielding semi-automatic handguns and a small tank known as SV-001 (the eponymous "Metal Slug"). As each stage progresses, they acquire more powerful weapons and tanks until confronting the final enemy. The characters of ''Metal Slug'' make common appearances in ''The King of Fighters'', and starting with ''Metal Slug 6'', the series also crosses over with ''Ikari Warriors''.
 
''Metal Slug'' is represented in ''Smash Ultimate'' through five music tracks playable on the ''King of Fighters Stadium'' stage: ''{{SSBUMusicLink|Fatal Fury|Main Theme of Metal Slug - METAL SLUG}}'', ''{{SSBUMusicLink|Fatal Fury|Assault Theme - METAL SLUG 1-3}}'', ''{{SSBUMusicLink|Fatal Fury|Final Attack - METAL SLUG 1-6}}'', ''{{SSBUMusicLink|Fatal Fury|Judgment - METAL SLUG 2}}'', and ''{{SSBUMusicLink|Fatal Fury|Blue Water Fangs (The Island of Dr. Moreau) - METAL SLUG 3}}''.

'''''Psycho Soldier''''' ({{ja|サイコ・ソルジャー|Saiko Sorujā}}, ''Psycho Soldier'') is an action platformer game developed by SNK and was released in arcades in 1987. It is the successor game to ''Athena'', starring Athena Asamiya, a Japanese schoolgirl descendant of the similarly-named goddess who uses her psychokinetic powers to fight an alien invasion alongside the Chinese youngster Sie Kensou. It is notable for being the first video game to feature a theme song with sampled lyrics.
 
Athena Asamiya appears as a background character in [[King of Fighters Stadium]] using her design from ''King of Fighters '95'', as well as a spirit, using her original game artwork. The ''{{SSBUMusicLink|Fatal Fury|Psycho Soldier Theme}}'' is also covered in both Japanese and English, with the latter being the first English version since its original release.

'''''Samurai Shodown''''' ({{ja|サムライスピリッツ|Samurai Supirittsu}}, ''Samurai Spirits'') is a weapon-based fighting game series made by SNK. The games are set in Japan in the late 18th century, involving the main protagonist Haohmaru and various other characters doing battle against dark forces threatening to spread their evil into the mortal world, such as the malevolent deity Ambrosia, who manipulates extremists like the sorcerer Shiro Amakusa to do its bidding. The earlier titles in the series are also well-known for their poor English translations at times. Despite the name of the series, most of the characters are not samurai in the traditional sense.
 
In ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', [[Nakoruru]] appears as a Mii costume for the Mii Swordfighter, and she appears as a spirit along with Haohmaru. The series is also represented with three music tracks from the first installment: ''{{SSBUMusicLink|Fatal Fury|Tuna - SAMURAI SHODOWN|Tuna}}'', ''{{SSBUMusicLink|Fatal Fury|Banquet of Nature - SAMURAI SHODOWN|Banquet of Nature}}'', and ''{{SSBUMusicLink|Fatal Fury|Gaia - SAMURAI SHODOWN|Gaia}}''.

==Dependent universes==
<!-->Please do not add spin-off universes themed around characters from major universes like Tingle, Kid Dracula or Captain Toad, even if elements from them are directly referenced in Smash<-->
'''Dependent universes''' are universes that are technically represented in some form in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' franchise, but are not considered their own series.
*'''''Final Fight''''' is a series of beat-em-up games made by Capcom. Cody, the series' protagonist, appears as a playable character in several ''Street Fighter'' games and receives a Spirit in ''Ultimate''.
*'''''Flicky''''' is an arcade platformer made by Sega. Flicky, the game's eponymous character, is the basis of the Flicky animal friends from ''Sonic the Hedgehog'', which appear on [[Windy Hill Zone]].

The series is also indirectly referenced by [[Palutena's Guidance]] in the conversation about Ryu.
*'''''Meteos''''' is a series of puzzle games originally released for the Nintendo DS. The [[X Bomb]]'s behavior in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series is similar to that of the item of the same name in ''Meteos'', in which it explodes in a cross shape rather than exhibit its behavior from ''Kid Icarus: Uprising''.
*'''''Policenauts''''' is a sci-fi adventure game made by Hideo Kojima for Konami. One character, Meryl Silverburgh, would serve as the basis of a character by the same name in the ''Metal Gear'' series, who appears as a sticker in ''Brawl'' and a Spirit in ''Ultimate''.

*'''''Shin Megami Tensei''''' is a post-apocalyptic RPG made by Atlus. ''Persona'' is a sub-series of ''Shin Megami Tensei''. The Tsubasa Oribe and Tsubasa Oribe (Carnage Form) Spirits in ''Ultimate'' originate from ''Tokyo Mirage Sessions ♯FE'', a pop idol-themed crossover between ''Persona'' and ''Fire Emblem''.
*'''Yume Kōjō '87''' was a promotional event held by Fuji TV in 1987 in Japan. '''''Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic''''' is a game featuring the mascots of this event, which was localised as ''Super Mario Bros. 2'' and eventually re-localised back to Japanese as ''Super Mario USA''. [[Mushroom Kingdom 2]] is based on the ''Super Mario All-Stars'' version of the game, and characters from the game such as [[Birdo]], [[Pidgit]] and [[Shy Guy]] have appeared in various forms as parts of the ''Mario'' and, in some cases for Shy Guy, ''Yoshi'' universes.
