This is a list of the staff involved with the game Super Smash Bros. The game and its follow-up Super Smash Bros. Melee feature extended versions of their credit rolls in which the credited personnel are matched to their specific roles (for example, the voice actors are matched to the characters they portrayed).[1] The credits vary depending on which regional version is being played, and some can only be seen by changing the language settings.
