Characters available as [[downloadable content]] use a generic Guidance conversation, presumably to avoid having to repeatedly bring in the characters' voice actors for new lines each time a new character is added. The generic conversation was discovered at launch in [http://vocaroo.com/i/s0KivwmAoIq3 the game's] [http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm25168286 sound files]. The conversation consists of Pit, Palutena, and Viridi briefly discussing an unknown fighter. Unused and inaccessible through normal play at first, it was confirmed to be a placeholder conversation for additional fighters on April 15th, 2015, with the release of the first DLC character, [[Mewtwo]], though [[Bayonetta]]'s reveal trailer had Palutena give Pit information on her.

Note: Palutena refers to Isabelle as "'''she Isabelle'''" rather than "'''she's Isabelle'''". This is most likely a pun to '''she is a bell''' due to the fact that she wears bells on her head.

Note: According to Leigh Loveday (writer of the ''Donkey Kong Country'' series) on Rareware.com's former "scribes" column, K. Rool's motivation for stealing the banana hoard is either that he wants Donkey Kong to starve to death so that he can occupy his "cosy treehouse pad," or perhaps that he simply likes bananas.<ref>http://web.archive.org/web/20020805184158/rareware.com/the_site/talk_to_us/scribes/aug25_99/aug25_99.html</ref> The latter explanation is supported in the ''Donkey Kong Country'' manual which states the Kremlings coveted the Bananas for their nutritional value, and contradicted in ''{{s|mariowiki|DK: Jungle Climber}}'' where K. Rool states that he despises bananas.

Note: Pit saying "Is that canon?" may be referring to the robot Ridley that only appeared in ''Metroid: Zero Mission'', which was a remake of the original ''Metroid''; alternatively, he may be questioning Viridi's claim that Ridley is "officially [...] a narcissist". Proteus Ridley, a version of Ridley where he was regenerating his organics during his Meta Ridley form, is not mentioned in the conversation.

Note: Pit recognizing Simon Belmont is a possible reference to how both of them were main characters in the promotional cartoon series ''{{s|wikipedia|Captain N: The Game Master}}'' and his explanation of "hitting the scene around the same time" refers to how both series debuted in 1986. Additionally, Pit's math is wrong - 1094 AD to 1999 is only 905 years, not a thousand (though Pit making such a mistake is still within character).
