'''''Cuphead''''' ({{ja|カップヘッド|Kappuheddo}}, ''Cuphead'') is a 2D sidescrolling run-and-gun platformer developed by the Canada-based StudioMDHR and inspired by series such as ''Contra'', ''Gunstar Heroes'', and ''Gradius''. Notably, the art style is rooted in 1930s rubber-hose cartoons inspired by the works of Disney and Fleischer Studios. The story follows two brothers, Cuphead and Mugman, who lost their souls in a bet with the Devil and are sent on a quest to collect the soul contracts of debtors across their homeland, Inkwell Isle, in order to save their own souls.
On January 16th, 2020, it was announced that [[Cuphead]] would be a Mii Fighter Costume for the Mii Gunner as part of {{h2|Downloadable content (SSBU)|Round 5}} of DLC. The Mii Costume is bundled with the music track ''{{SSBUMusicLink|Other|Floral Fury}}'', the boss theme for Cagney Carnation, which can play on stages under the categories of "Other" and, as of version 8.1.0, "Super Smash Bros." Later, on February 11th, 2020, it was announced that the [[Spirit Board]] event [[Ready? Wallop!]] would start on February 14th of the same year, featuring [[spirit]]s for Cuphead, Mugman, King Dice, and the Devil.
