Trivia
- SNK is the third company represented in the Smash Bros. series to have competed against Nintendo in the console market, after Sega and Microsoft. As with the former, however, it stopped producing its own consoles before providing content for Smash Bros. (and like the latter, released some games for Nintendo's consoles despite producing a competing system).
