Trivia
- Joker is the first selectable character in the series to share their voice actor with the announcer in the English version of the game, barring Master Hand's playable appearances, as Master Hand is not a normally selectable character outside of these circumstances.
- Alongside Piranha Plant, Joker does not appear on the panoramic artwork showcasing the fighters of Ultimate at the time of his announcement.
- Joker is one of three newcomers in Ultimate to not have a special tagline, the others being Inkling and Daisy.
- Joker and Inkling are also the only newcomers in Ultimate to be announced without any gameplay footage in their reveal trailers.
- Joker is also the only third-party character with this trait.
- Joker's reveal trailer has two versions, and is the only character with this distinction: one was played during The Game Awards 2018, and one was officially posted online afterwards, which removes dialogue references to The Game Awards.
- In Joker's reveal trailer, it is mentioned that he must have gone to The Game Awards 2018 to steal a treasure. According to Masahiro Sakurai in a Famitsu column, the treasure was an invitation to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. [3]
