The release of the licensing form accompanying the guidelines assuaged fears from the ''Melee'' community that Nintendo was disallowing them from playing the game. Despite neither version of ''Super Smash Bros. 4'' being eligible for a license per the guidelines, there has been little to no response from the community in regards to it, continuing the post-''Ultimate'' disinterest in the game from players and spectators alike.


Currently, it is unknown if these guidelines will be applied to Hong Kong, Taiwan, South Korea, mainland China or other Asian countries outside of Japan. It is also unknown whether these guidelines apply to countries in the Americas other than the United States, Canada and Mexico, to African countries besides South Africa, or to countries in the Middle East and North Africa region.
