Revision as of 16:07, May 10, 2014

A victory theme, which can be referred to as a flourish, and is referred to as a fanfare in Super Smash Bros. Brawl 's Sound Test, is a short, recognisable melody, usually a cover, that is played in conjunction with a character from the same universe as the victory theme wins a Vs. match, or another similar event, such as Tourney victory. For instance, if the character Mario were to win the match, an orchestral cover of a soundbyte from Super Mario Bros. will play out. All characters except Meta Knight share one flourish across their respective universes, so in the aforementioned instance, Luigi, Peach and Bowser share the same flourish as Mario. Thus, if one of these characters other than Mario were to win, the same victory theme will still play.
