'''Collection''', referred to as the '''Trophy Hoard''' in ''Brawl'', is a mode present in both ''Melee'' and ''Brawl'' that allows the player to view all of the trophies they have collected up to that point. Differences between the two versions exist, but both have the same overall purpose in the game: to showcase all of the trophies at once.

Along with the consoles, the Japanese version also features calligraphy on the very top of the shelves, spelling out "Dairantō Sumasshu Burazāzu", the Japanese name for the series; as calligraphy is not as widespread in North America or PAL regions, this image is replaced by that of a Mondrian-esque picture with the words "Super Smash Bros.".

The layout of the trophies is completely random; additionally, they're scattered all over the place, with spaces frequently appearing between the them. The player, however, can hold the L, R, and Z buttons to allow for different and neater arrangements; the combinations give either a rectangle, a circle or a triangle.
