Masahiro Sakurai at a gathering of many musicians whose arrangements were featured in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
The following is a list of composers who have composed, arranged, and remixed music for the Super Smash Bros. series. This list does not include composers of tracks taken directly from other sources.

- Grant Kirkhope and Toby Fox are the only non-Japanese composers to arrange music for the Super Smash Bros. series.
- Incidentally, both composers remixed songs they originally composed.
- Also incidentally, both songs in question were added to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate in the same update.
- A total of 108 composers have remixed and/or arranged original music for the Super Smash Bros. series.
- Brawl has the most amount of new composers with 38, while 64 has the least amount of them with one sole composer (Hirokazu Ando).
- Ando also has the most music credits in the series, having done 56 music pieces counting arrangements and Smash-specific compositions.
- Ando is also the only composer to have his work appear in every game in the series.
- Ando and Shogo Sakai are tied for the highest number of new music tracks in Melee, at 14.
- Sakai would also contribute more to Brawl than any other composer, with 21 compositions.
- Junichi Nakatsuru would contribute the most to Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U, with 9 tracks between both games.
- Nobuko Toda would contribute the most compositions to Ultimate, arranging 9 songs for the game.

For the “Green Greens,” “Pokémon Floats,” and some other stage music, I simply made my arrangement and was done. But, the menu theme… That was a tough one! (laughs)”

His face grew stern, he said, “well, then,” and it was decided that Mr. Sakai would compose that song.”

So I wanted it to feel refreshing, like something already familiar to them, like they were watching the game’s’ stages from afar. Sakai: And that “refreshing” feel is exactly where I began to go wrong. Did that mean a cheery spring-like tune? I had no idea what I should do.”
