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. |

Confirmed elements
Veterans
Other characters appear to be silhouetted, but they are less clear.
Other confirmed new elements
- Inkling, with female and male designs from the original Splatoon, has been confirmed to appear in the game; whether Inkling will be a playable fighter has not yet been officially confirmed.
Development
Prior to the initial reveal, Nintendo filed a number of trademarks on November 12th, 2017, notably including a Japanese Super Smash Bros. logo.[1] The logo was compared to the Japanese Super Smash Bros. Melee logo as they were nearly identical in appearance. Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo Switch was officially revealed on March 8th, 2018 via a Nintendo Direct. Shortly after, Masahiro Sakurai, the lead developer for all previous Smash titles, confirmed in a tweet that he had been working on the game "in silence, day after day".[2][3]

Trivia
- This is the first Smash game since Super Smash Bros. Melee to not have a third party character introduced in its debut trailer. Super Smash Bros. Brawl had Snake, while Super Smash Bros. 4 had Mega Man.
- The revealed logo includes a slim cross going through the word 'SUPER' and the letter 'A'. This is the only Smash logo to do this.
