Little Mac (リトル・マック, Little Mac) is a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, officially confirmed on June 12th, 2018.
Changes from Super Smash Bros. 4
Aesthetics
- As with all veterans returning from SSB4, Little Mac's model features a more subdued color scheme. His clothing now features simple detailing and his muscles are slightly more pronounced. His model and textures otherwise appear unchanged.
- Little Mac no longer has sixteen alternate costumes, only eight. Of the cut costumes, his blue and orange outfits have been removed, while Wire-Frame Mac has notably been reduced to just two outfits: his standard and sweatshirt outfits.
- Little Mac's side taunt has an altered animation.
- Once KO Uppercut is used or lost, the Power Meter now shows the meter physically draining to zero, rather than cutting immediately to the lowest level.
Attributes
Little Mac is arguably the character that benefits the most from the addition of directional air dodges, granting him increased offstage survivability and a new option to mix up his landings.
Special Moves
- Straight Lunge can now be canceled by shielding.
- Like with most non-storeable charge moves, Straight Lunge can be unleashed at the opposite direction upon releasing the move.
- KO Uppercut has a new animation. Little Mac now performs a jumping uppercut, making it appear more identical to the Star Punch from Punch-Out!! on the NES.
- KO Uppercut's new animation gives the move more vertical range, and also grants recovery distance if used in midair.
- KO Uppercut now disappears if it is not used within 15 seconds.
- Grounded Jolt Haymaker travels a shorter distance on the ground.
- Grounded Jolt Haymaker makes Little Mac spend less time in the air. He also lands with significantly more traction.
- Aerial Jolt Haymaker no longer renders Little Mac helpless and keeps more forward momentum, thus granting more distance. This significantly improves his recovery.
- Aerial Jolt Haymaker can only be used once until Mac touches the ground again.
- Slip Counter grants less momentum after an aerial counter. This lowers its recovery potential, but makes it less likely that Mac gets accidentally sent offstage by a counter.
- His Final Smash Giga Mac is no longer a transformation, and its now similar to Donkey Kong's new Final Smash.

Trivia
- Little Mac's video on the official website has him follow Wario's bike while wearing his pink sweater. This is a reference to the Punch-Out!! series, where Little Mac runs alongside Doc Louis on his bike.
- Little Mac's pose in his official art resembles the pose he performs while using Slip Counter.
