Trivia
- Super Smash Bros. for Wii U is the first game in the series not to be released first in Japan.
- Super Smash Bros. for Wii U is currently the Wii U's fastest selling title, surpassing the previous holder of the title, Mario Kart 8. In North America alone, Nintendo sold over 490,000 digital and physical copies of the game in three days.
- Sales of the Gamecube Bundle and Adapter were so popular in the United States that there was an immediate shortage of the Adapter upon launch of the game, leading to significantly inflated prices from online dealers; at one point, Amazon.com featured prices in excess of $110 USD for the Adapter.
- This is the only game in the series that does not have a stage based off of the original Super Mario Bros.
- This is the first Smash game in which Jigglypuff and Ganondorf are starter characters. They are unlockable in the 3DS version, however.
- This is the first Smash game to feature stages from the N64 version since Melee.
- Super Smash Bros. for Wii U is the first Smash game to not have any unlockable Pokémon characters.
