Background characters are cameo characters that appear in a stage that correspond to their home universe (e.g. King Dedede appears in the Super Smash Bros. stage Dream Land). Note that background characters should not be confused with stage hazards.
In Super Smash Bros.
Peach's Castle
- Lakitu can sometimes be seen flying in the background.
Congo Jungle
- Necky appears flying in the background.
Dream Land
- King Dedede and Bronto Burt appear flying in the background.
Mushroom Kingdom
- Many classic enemies from Super Mario Bros. are seen in the background.
Planet Zebes
- Several enemy sprites ripped directly from Super Metroid, including Ridley, can be seen flying around.
Saffron City
- Several flying-type Pokémon, including but not limited to Pidgey, Fearow, Moltres (rarely), and Butterfree, fly across the skyline.
Yoshi's Island (SSB)
- Shy Guys appear in the background.
- A Goonie, in its Yoshi's Story design, occasionally flies in the background.
In Super Smash Bros. Melee
Brinstar
- A Chozo Statue on the main platform comes to life and briefly walks before settling down into its original position.
- There is a large organism in the far background that shakes constantly, and is heavily speculated to be Mother Brain, though this organism lacks the characteristic features of Mother Brain herself, such as the one eye and spikes.
Fourside
- Porky Minch appears in his helicopter.
Great Bay
- After three minutes have passed, the Four Giants appear on the hillside to push the falling moon back into the sky (This is in reference to the fact that Link had three days to wake said giants and prevent the Moon from falling).
Jungle Japes
- Cranky Kong is seen walking back and forth in his cottage and rocking in his chair at various times, but if you put the camera at a certain angle, all you see is his shadow. Flocks of Neckies are also seen in the far background.
Yoshi's Island
- A Fishing Lakitu and a Banzai Bill fly around in the background.
Yoshi's Story
- Pak E. Derm can be seen walking behind the scenery.
