Pit and Palutena discussing Super Smash Bros. in Kid Icarus: Uprising.

As the Super Smash Bros. series is a crossover of numerous existing Nintendo properties, some of the properties represented have since made references to the series in their "native" media. This is a list of all known references to Super Smash Bros. outside of the series itself.

Represented franchises

These are references from franchises directly represented in Smash.

General

• Arguably, any game with support from the Super Smash Bros. line of amiibo references Smash to some degree due to its roster affecting the availability of a character as an amiibo. This is especially true for those with specific functions only available from Smash amiibo. For instance, some amiibo-based Yoshi designs in Yoshi's Woolly World, such as those based on characters like Shulk or Sonic the Hedgehog, are only possible with their Smash amiibo. A full list of games compatible with Smash amiibo can be found here.

Animal Crossing

• In Animal Crossing, some of the codes that the player can give to Tom Nook in exchange for items are altered versions of Nintendo game titles. A few of these codes are based on the title "Super Smash Bros.", such as "MupersmaspbnoS SupersmashbroS" for the Ponderosa Bonsai. A full list of codes can be found here.
• In Animal Crossing: New Leaf, the player can win prizes by redeeming fortunes they receive from a fortune cookie. These prizes are items and clothing from other Nintendo games, and if the player wins the Blue Falcon furniture item, the fortune reads "When all else fails, never forget to show them your moves." in reference to Captain Falcon's famous taunt in the Super Smash Bros. series.

Chibi-Robo

• In Chibi-Robo! Zip Lash, figurines can be unlocked of Chibi-Robo in various poses. By scanning amiibo, one can unlock figurines of Chibi-Robo imitating a pose of that character's, in almost every case a pose from official artwork of the character. While some characters' poses resemble official artwork from their home series (the Pit pose, for example, matching his Uprising artwork), many resemble their appearances in Super Smash Bros. specifically:
  • The Mii Brawler, Mii Swordfighter, and Mii Gunner are original to SSB4 to begin with, and their poses match their SSB4 official art, and by extension, their amiibo.
  • The Bowser Jr., Diddy Kong, Zelda, Ganondorf, King Dedede, Ike, Robin, Dark Pit, and Duck Hunt poses match their SSB4 official art, and by extension, their amiibo.
  • The Sheik, Meta Knight and Mr. Game & Watch poses match their Brawl official art (Mr. Game & Watch's being the same as in Melee).
  • The Captain Falcon pose matches his dash animation from the Smash games.
  • The Palutena pose matches her Heavenly Light animation from SSB4.

Donkey Kong

• The opening theme to Melee, the Melee arrangement of Rainbow Cruise, and the Melee arrangement of the DK Rap are available tracks in the PAL release of Donkey Konga. The opening theme for Melee also appears in the Japan-only Donkey Konga 3: Tabehōdai! Haru Mogitate 50 Kyoku.

F-Zero

Captain Falcon performs the Falcon Punch on Black Shadow in F-Zero: GP Legend.

• Captain Falcon used his Smash Bros.-originated Falcon Punch ability in the F-Zero: GP Legend anime, as seen in his final showdown against Black Shadow Unlike the Super Smash Bros. series, though, the punch is electric, and not infused by fire.

• While not performed in-game, the Falcon Punch was later referenced in a line from the credits music of F-Zero GX.

• Captain Falcon's pose in his artwork for F-Zero GX is similar to his taunt in Melee.

Fire Emblem

• A pack of downloadable missions in Fire Emblem: Awakening is entitled Smash Brethren, and pits Chrom in battles with two of Fire Emblem's three known Smash Bros. representatives at the time, Roy and Ike. The third - Marth - is absent in this pack, although he makes appearances in other downloadable missions, and his character is an important aspect of Awakening's mythos, with many characters referencing the character's backstory and personality and Lucina going under his name to hide her identity.
• The four playable Fire Emblem characters from the base release of SSB4 are available in Fire Emblem Fates as recruitable units by scanning their amiibo. In Fates, there are some references to their Smash appearances, such as Robin's signature weapon being a Thoron tome; while said tome was one of many weapons Robin could equip in Awakening, it is prominently used by him in Smash. The characters' dialogue also reflects their experiences in Smash in the context of fighting opponents from around the world. Robin, in particular, makes mention of "launching the other fighters" and being launched himself.

Kid Icarus

• Pit and Lady Palutena's appearances in Kid Icarus: Uprising are lifted directly from their designs in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Pit's bifurcated bow from Brawl also appears in-game as the Bow-type weapon Palutena's Bow (in fact, all bow-type weapons can be split for melee attacks), and Dark Pit himself is based directly upon Pit's black palette swap from Brawl. In addition, multiple direct references are made to the Super Smash Bros. series in the game - Brawl itself in particular - as the game often breaks the fourth wall.
  • In the Japanese version of the game, both Pit and Palutena stop in the middle of the tutorial to start up a copy of Brawl. The Brawl character select menu appears onscreen, with Pit choosing Mario and Palutena choosing Kirby. They decide against the idea before actually starting a match, however, and resume the tutorial.
  • In the English version, the instruction of tapping the Circle Pad to dash makes Pit remark that the technique feels familiar. Palutena claims the technique is akin to a game called "Super Bash Sisters", before Pit corrects her, explicitly name-dropping the series as seen above.
  • When using a Bow-type weapon, a conversation will sometimes start up where Pit mentions using a bow "in the last brawl". Horrified, Palutena asks Pit if he was hurt, to which he denies, and comments on how "it was a smash". She claims she cannot imagine him "in a melee", to which Pit replies that he was not.

Kirby

The Fountain of Dreams in Kirby: Nightmare
in Dream Land (left) and Kirby Super Star Ultra (right)

File:Smash ability icon.png

• In Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards, when Kirby defeats a boss, he says "Hi", using the same voice clip that Super Smash Bros. used for Kirby's taunt one year prior in Smash Bros..
• In Kirby and the Amazing Mirror, both Master Hand and Crazy Hand make appearances as the bosses of the Candy Constellation area. Inhaling either of them will grant Kirby the Smash copy ability, which is a rough approximation of how he plays in the Super Smash Bros. series by pulling moves from other copy abilities that contributed to his Smash Bros. movesets. This move can also be obtained randomly by swallowing multiple enemies at once. Visually, Kirby is identical to his default non-ability appearance, as it is how he normally appears in Smash Bros.
  • The Smash ability returns in the Kirby's Dream Collection anniversary compilation, in two of the game's original challenge stages using the engine from Kirby's Return to Dream Land. These two stages are based entirely around navigation and combat with the ability, which is the only one available. The Super Smash Bros. logo can be seen on the background tiles of the stages. Smash Kirby also obtains a chargeable flying kick called Smash Kick, referencing his forward smash, which in turn is a reference to the original Spin Kick used in Kirby Super Star.
  • In Kirby: Planet Robobot, Kirby can obtain the ability (now named "Smash Bros.") by scanning the Kirby amiibo from the Super Smash Bros. line or finding hidden Copy Essences. The ability now has the Ninja ability's Air Drop technique, referencing Kirby's up throw, Smash Kick and Hammer Flip can be charged for more damage (with Hammer Flip also gaining the ability to move and jump while doing so), and its guard produces a red shield as a visual effect exclusive to the ability.
• Elements of the visual design of the Fountain of Dreams stage in Melee were incorporated into its appearance in Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land, and the design was used more fully in Kirby Super Star Ultra and Kirby Fighters Deluxe. The Melee stage's arrangement of the Gourmet Race theme was used in both Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land and Kirby: Triple Deluxe.
• Kirby's Return to Dream Land adds the Hammer Twirl technique to the Hammer ability, which resembles King Dedede's down aerial from Brawl. Meta Knight's own moveset also include a modified sword attack similar to his neutral attack, as well as Shuttle Loop, which is based off of his recovery move instead of Kirby's variant, sending him forward in a controllable glide.
• Kirby: Triple Deluxe includes a bonus game called Kirby Fighters, which is based heavily on the Super Smash Bros. series, including various mechanics such as air-dodging, shielding that results in stun if overused, perfect shielding, and rolls. Kirby Fighters Deluxe, the eShop-exclusive sequel, adds teams and features an army of King Dededes as the final boss, similar to the Multi-Man Smash mode.
• Kirby Super Star Ultra names one of Meta Knight's techniques Mach Tornado, with him transforming into a similar yellow cyclone before becoming an enormous tornado. The model of the Halberd used in the cutscenes of Revenge of Meta Knight is the one from Brawl.
• In Kirby: Planet Robobot, Meta Knight's design has received minor changes that resemble his appearances in Brawl and SSB4, moreso than in previous Kirby games, including having his logo on his pauldron and differently designed shoes. He also obtains a new move called Galaxia Darkness, where he covers himself with his cape, turns the screen dark, and slashes horizontally to his sides, identical to his Final Smash. His jumping Spin Attack-esque move is also called Mach Tornado, though in name only. Master Hand also makes a cameo appearance as a sticker, using stock art from his appearance in Kirby and the Amazing Mirror, as well as a golden statue holding the Smash logo for Smash Bros. Kirby's Stone attack.

Mario

"Show me your moves!" in Mario Kart 8's Mute City.

The SSB4 base roster, plus Mewtwo and Lucas, in Super Mario Maker.

• While arguably not explicitly references, several special moves invented for Melee have gone on to become used in Mario games:
  • Before Melee, Yoshi had only been seen turning into an egg against his will or in response to a Super Star or Turbo Tulip. Upon the Egg Roll being introduced, self-egging became a staple ability of all Yoshis, seeing appearances in Mario Power Tennis and Mario Strikers Charged.
  • Before Melee, Bowser had never used his shell as a weapon like other Koopas (save for the third-party game Mario's Time Machine). With the introduction of the Whirling Fortress, shell maneuvers are now a common part of Bowser's arsenal, seeing use in Mario Kart: Double Dash!! as items, as well as in Mario Power Tennis, Super Mario Galaxy 2, and Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story.
• In the Spanish translation of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, one of Rawk Hawk's lines telling weaklings to "stick to video-game fighting" has been changed to "stay home playing Super Smash Bros. Melee".
• Two of the Mystery House stages in Super Mario 3D World have the goal of defeating every enemy to advance; their English titles are Mystery House Melee and Mystery House Brawl.
• The Mario Kart 8 DLC pack The Legend of Zelda x Mario Kart 8 contains Mute City, a course based on the F-Zero series. A screen in said course depicts Captain Falcon alongside the quote "Show me your moves!", a line originating from his taunt in the Smash series.
• Super Mario Maker has 50 Costume Mario options connected to Smash amiibo (although they don't require the amiibo to unlock); some of these depictions make references specific to their Smash incarnations. These include details such as R.O.B. firing boosters from his base, which was introduced in Brawl; the usage of Duck Hunt, with the duck riding on the dog's back, as a single character, a combination introduced in SSB4; and Zero Suit Samus with jet boots, introduced in SSB4. Squirtle and the ice climbers also appears as a downloadable costume, although its appearance in Super Mario Maker is unconnected to Smash.
• In Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam, the final mission for Neo Bowser Castle is named after the Final Smash move from the Super Smash Bros. series.

Metal Gear

• In Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes, the enhanced GameCube port of Metal Gear Solid, a character and boss in the game, Psycho Mantis, claims to have the ability to read minds. In addition to detecting the player's inputs and forcibly rumbling the player's controller, he will also comment on save data found in the same memory card; Psycho Mantis has unique dialogue if Melee's save data is detected. Notably, this reference was made before Metal Gear was actually represented in Smash Bros., although Snake was considered for Melee.
• The Brawl remix MGS4 ~Theme of Love~ Smash Bros. Brawl Version appears as a track in Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots on Snake's in-game iPod, under the title "Love Theme (Action Version)".

Metroid

The Smash Bros. logo in Metroid Prime 3: Corruption.

• In Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, bumper stickers can appear on Samus's Gunship depending on save data on the same Wii. If save data from Brawl is present, a sticker of the Super Smash Bros. logo can appear.
• In Metroid: Other M, Ridley can replicate his wall scraping attack from a cutscene in The Subspace Emissary.
• The Paralyzer and Zero Suit were simply known as a "rather useless emergency pistol" and a "body suit" respectively in their debut in Metroid: Zero Mission. However, in Other M, they take on the "Paralyzer" and "Zero Suit" names from Brawl.

Pikmin

• In The Night Juicer, one of the Pikmin Short Movies, a picture on Captain Olimar's bulletin board depicts his Brawl model standing in front of the Hocotate Ship.

Pokémon

• An event distribution based on the Greninja that appears in Super Smash Bros. 4 was available for Japanese players to download to Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire via serial code if they registered both that game and Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS with Club Nintendo during the end of 2014 into early 2015. The Greninja knows its four special moves from Smash, Water Shuriken, Shadow Sneak, Hydro Pump, and Substitute; it also has its rarer Hidden Ability, Protean. Its Original Trainer is named スマブラ (Smabura), an abbreviation of Smash Bros.
• In Pokkén Tournament, one of the dialogue options for the player's trainer is "Show me your moves!", in reference to Captain Falcon's recurring taunt in Smash.

Star Fox

• In Star Fox Zero, the designs for members of Team Star Fox, including Fox McCloud and Falco Lombardi, now include a small green reticle over their right eyes; this detail originates in Fox and Falco's Brawl and SSB4 designs, rather than previous Star Fox games. According to Star Fox Zero – The Battle Begins, the visor is Slippy Toad's most recent invention. Other elements, such as a Reflector-like device worn on the hip by Fox and Falco, also appear to be drawn from the Brawl-onward Smash design.
• Also in Star Fox Zero, during the Titania Landmaster mission, Falco will quote his line from Brawl and SSB4 when he uses his Final Smash: "Personally, I prefer the air."

•

• In Street Fighter V's main menu, the silhouette of Ryu's SSB4 official art is used in in the Casual Match box.

StreetPass Mii Plaza

• A Puzzle Swap panel based on "Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U" was released in Japan in December 2014, and in Western regions in February 2015. The completed image depicts the starting roster. Viewing it will display character silhouettes of the starter characters moving towards the screen.

The Legend of Zelda

Ganondorf's silhouette with his SpaceWorld 2000 / Melee sword in Hyrule Warriors.

• The Zelda spinoff title Hyrule Warriors contains indirect references to Super Smash Bros. games:
  • Princess Zelda's Special Technique when Focus Spirit is active involves using Nayru's Love, Farore's Wind, and Din's Fire in rapid succession. These spells from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time were used by Link in their original appearance, with Super Smash Bros. Melee being the first game to give these spells to Zelda.
  • One of Sheik's combos involves a spinning kick similar to her down smash in the Smash series, an action never previously seen in the Zelda series itself.
  • Ganondorf's Ocarina of Time incarnation appears in a cutscene describing Cia's backstory wielding his sword from the SpaceWorld 2000 GameCube Tech Demo. The only released game in which Ganondorf was shown using this sword in any capacity was Melee, where it appeared in his official artwork, one of his victory poses and his All-Star trophy.
  • The usage of the name Young Link for the child-age Link from Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask and Toon Link for the Link from The Wind Waker are identical to how they are referred to in their Smash appearances, as opposed to their home games where they are simply known as "Link".
  • One of Toon Link's special moves involves him swinging his sword in a panic, and pausing to catch his breath after the move, likely as a reference to his down taunt.

The Wonderful 101

Wonder-Dancer's profile in The Wonderful 101.

• A minor Wonderful One named Wonder-Dancer has the tagline "SHOW ME YOUR MOVES!", a reference to Captain Falcon's recurring taunt in the Smash series.

Tomodachi

The R.O.B treasure found in Tomodachi Life.

• R.O.B. appears as a treasure in Tomodachi Life; his description mentions his role as "an official Smash brawler".

Yoshi

Many of the character-based skins for Yoshi in Yoshi's Woolly World are inspired by characters in SSB4.

• Yoshi's Woolly World supports most Smash amiibo, unlocking themed costumes for Yoshi based on the scanned character (excluding Pokémon amiibo.) This extends to the Mii Brawler, Mii Swordfighter, and Mii Gunner, the designs of which are original to SSB4.

  TF2's version of the damage meter, seen on the left
  The sixth annual Scream Fortress Halloween event for Valve Software's Team Fortress 2 introduces a set of bumper car mini-games with damage mechanics that work identically to those in Smash Bros.: players have a damage meter with a percentage that increases when hit and determines how much knockback they receive, with a major objective to knock the opponents out of the arena.

  Variant covers for Sonic Universe, Mega Man, and Sonic the Hedgehog, combined to form its singular image.
  As a promotion for Super Smash Bros. 4, American comic book company Archie Comics announced that variant covers for Issue 69 of Sonic Universe, Issue 42 of Mega Man, and Issue 266 of Sonic the Hedgehog would feature a triptych based on Smash 4. The three covers respectively feature Shadow the Hedgehog, Mega Man using his down smash and Sonic the Hedgehog on a variant of the Boxing Ring stage, with the Mega Man cover also featuring a lenticular cover as to allow it to appear 3D.
• Super Smash Bros. is referenced in a sketch in the 11th episode of Season 3 of MAD called "Diary of a Wimpy Kid Icarus". Acting as a crossover between Super Smash Bros. and the children's book series Diary of a Wimpy Kid, it featured several characters that from the Super Smash Bros. series, including Mega Man, and starred Pit and Kirby as unpopular high school students. At the end of the sketch, Pit and Kirby are challenged by Mega Man and his gang (of Sonic, Pikachu, and Donkey Kong) to a battle. The basketball court that they initially appeared on is then uprooted and flies high in the air, resembling Brawl's Battlefield without the platforms. As with a regular Super Smash Bros. match, a narrator counts down from "3" and the fight ensues. Pit wins the fight by firing a single arrow and earns his desired popularity.
• 

  Steven and Uncle Grandpa playing the In-universe version of Super Smash Bros.
  In the Steven Universe/Uncle Grandpa crossover episode "Say Uncle", Steven and Uncle Grandpa are seen playing an in-universe variation of Super Smash Bros. on Steven's Nintendo GameCube.
  • The match itself is a crossover between Hopper and Tiny Miracle, two minor characters from Steven Universe and Uncle Grandpa respectively. It also uses several specific Super Smash Bros. elements such as perfect shielding, rolling and the behavior of the camera.
• The two continuities of the Love, Chunibyo & Other Delusions franchise each have a different verbal mention of Super Smash Bros.:
  • On pages 68-69 of the first volume of the light novel series, Yuuta and Rikka debate over the name of an otherwise unnamed video game, with Yuuta insisting that the game is called "Sumabura", a Japanese abbreviation of Smash Bros.
  • In the original Japanese version of the fifth episode of the first season of the anime, at the 7:40 time stamp, Yuuta compares Rikka's embarassment at having inferior math skills to her "servant" Dekomori to being up at 300% damage in Smash Bros. The words "Smash Bros." are partially bleeped out from the dialog for copyright reasons. The English dub changes the Smash Bros. analogy to a generic analogy of a player losing all their lives in an arcade game at once.
• In chapter 114 of the manga Nisekoi, Ruri Miyamoto and her grandfather are seen playing Super Smash Bros. Brawl on a Wii with a GameCube controller look-alike; the match shown on the screen depicts a Meta Knight look-alike fighting Ganondorf on Final Destination.
• The season four finale of the Comedy Central sitcom Workaholics, "Friendship Anniversary", sees the main trio of Adam, Blake, and Ders have their house infested by rats--whom they proceed to massacre. Blake sneaks up on one rat, screams "FALCON PUNCH!" and then punches it to death.

Many elements of that game appear, including a stage based closely on Battlefield, rolling, KO explosions, a meteor smash resembling Mario's forward aerial, screen KO, shield and the Hammer item.
• Smash Bros. is referenced in the movie Zathura, where Danny asks his dad to play Smash Bros. Oddly enough, Danny is holding a PlayStation 2 controller.
