The Skill parameter has been removed from Smasher infoboxes, and in its place are the new "Best historical ranking" and "Best tournament result" parameters. SmashWiki needs help adding these new parameters to Smasher infoboxes, refer to the guidelines here for what should be included in these new parameters. |
When adding results to Smasher pages, include each tournament's entrant number in addition to the player's placement, and use the {{Trn}} template with the matching game specified. Please also fix old results on Smasher pages that do not abide to this standard. Refer to our Smasher article guidelines to see how results tables should be formatted. |

Fan game
Fan games are unofficial games based on other official games, usually created by fans with low or non-existent budgets,.
In the Super Smash Bros. series
Many fan games based on the Super Smash Bros. series have been created. While they are unofficial, they are sometimes considered an important part of the Super Smash Bros. community. Multiple fan games have been created, each with its own fanbase. As a difference to retail products, fan games are free and require a simple internet download. Fan games often add characters many fans want in the official Smash Bros. games (such as Mega Man or Ryu), and are made with completely 2D sprites and backgrounds, compared to the 2.5D of the official Smash Bros. games. Many fan games also tend to have considerably simpler mechanics than retail games; Super Smash Flash, for instance, only gives roughly five moves to a character, while MultiHero characters have around seven. Fan games are typically played over the Internet, or by downloading a flash game from the Internet.
While there are many popular fan games, the most popular fan games include Super Smash Flash and its reboot, Super Smash Flash 2. Other fan games exist, such as Super Smash Bros. Crusade, Super Smash Bros. NES, Super Smash X, Super Nuke Bros. Melee, Smash Bros. Duel, MultiHero, and Super Smash Bros. Engine Demo.
Fan games, however, can have their own properties. MultiHero, for instance, has the concept of "Super Specials", which predated the concept of Final Smashes in Brawl.
