**While Captain Falcon has used the same voice clips in each game (albeit with variations between ''Smash 64'', ''Melee'', and ''Brawl'' onwards), he was given new vocals in [[Min Min]]'s [[List of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate character trailers#Min Min|reveal trailer]]; Ryō Horikawa reprised his role for this appearance.

*The English voice recordings for ''Super Smash Bros. 4'' and ''Ultimate'' were conducted under non-union conditions, which is presumed to be the cause of noticeable impacts on the voice casts of characters from ''Final Fantasy'', ''Kid Icarus: Uprising'', and ''Fire Emblem Awakening'':

**The only ''Kid Icarus: Uprising'' voice actors to reprise their roles in ''Smash'' are Antony Del Rio (Pit and [[Dark Pit]]) and {{s|wikipedia|Hynden Walch}} (Viridi), both of whom are uncredited. Additionally, Walch only returned as Viridi for ''Smash 4'', being completely replaced by Dayci Brookshire for ''Ultimate''. All other ''Uprising'' characters were recast.

**''Brawl'' introduced Pokémon Trainer, [[Lucas]] and [[Zero Suit Samus]]. Meta Knight and Pit also share this distinction as well, albeit only applying in English.

**''Smash 4'' introduced [[Little Mac]]. [[Palutena]] also shares this distinction, albeit only in English.

*''Ultimate'' is the first game with official voice acting for Erdrick, Solo, and Eight, and [[Masahiro Sakurai]] shared some interesting pieces of trivia about each of the Hero's voice actors and their recording sessions:

**The Luminary's voice actress, Mitsuki Saiga, reprises her role from ''Dragon Quest XI S'' (thus technically making ''Ultimate'' her debut voicing the character), but was directed to have more energy in her vocals to better fit the style of ''Smash''.

**Eight's voice actor, Yūki Kaji, apparently dreamed of doing voice work for the ''Dragon Quest'' and ''Super Smash Bros.'' series, and he was enthusiastic to fulfill both at the same time in ''Ultimate''.

*Several actors are credited in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' despite having no performances actually in the game:

**Jaz Adams and Lyssa Browne, who were the English voices of [[Peppy Hare]] and [[Slippy Toad]] in the [[Orbital Gate Assault]] stage's [[Star Fox Smash Taunt|Smash Taunt]] in ''Smash 4'', are still credited despite the stage not returning for ''Ultimate''.

*Rosalina's voice actress's name is misspelled as "Kerr'''y''' Kane" instead of "Kerr'''i''' Kane" in ''Ultimate''{{'}}s credits.

*Eric Newsome, [[Meta Knight]]'s English voice actor, mistakenly labeled the ''Super Smash Bros.'' franchise as the ''Super Mario Bros.'' franchise on his website.<ref>http://www.themanvoice.com/</ref> The link for the series on the website is also erroneously a duplicate link to the website for ''{{iw|wikipedia|Dota 2}}'', in which Newsome voices multiple characters.

<!--Do not add in the fact that, besides Takeshi Kusao, the Hero's different VAs have played Link at some point. It's just a coincidental trivia point, and voice actor trivia shouldn't be mentioned unless there's a legitimate connection, like with Morgana and Pikachu, or Chrom and Yusuke Kitagawa.-->

*Sean Barrett (the English voice of [[Azurda]]) is the oldest voice actor in the series to record new lines for a character, being 80 years old at the time of Pyra and Mythra's release.

*With ''Ultimate'' marking his 100th performance as Mario, Charles Martinet received a {{s|wikipedia|Guinness World Records}} certificate for the most performances as a single video game character.

*[[Pokémon Trainer]] has the most voice actors in the entire series, totaling at 18. [[Wii Fit Trainer]] previously held the title, and still holds the record for the most voice actors in a single game, having 17 in ''Smash 4'' and ''Ultimate''.
