In ''Brawl'', the game follows a mechanic similar to its predecessor. The B, Y and X buttons, (or up, left, and right on the D-Pad) on the GameCube controller can be held down before the victory screen to choose a pose. | In ''Brawl'', the game follows a mechanic similar to its predecessor.

In ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'', a transition animation plays before transferring to a black screen. Among these are by falling apart in a checkerboard pattern and folding into a paper plane before flying away. After this animation, the victor's [[series symbol]] appears before zooming out into the background of a tinted stage (in the color of the victor's [[damage meter]]), with the stage consisting of a checkerboard floor and clouds in the distance.

In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', the game immediately transitions to a black background, with the same zoom-out animation for the series symbol. The losers instead clap in a window within the results screen overlay. In a [[team battle]], characters stand in different elevations when doing a victory pose. This can make them apparently float beside their teammates after they win a team battle, which is unique within the series. | In ''[[Super Smash Bros.

In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', there is no transition animation and the screen immediately turns black with the series symbol zooming out after filling the screen, like in ''Melee''. However, the camera is slightly more dynamic, zooming out in different ways while the victor performs their victory pose. This game's backdrop features a cloudy sunset backdrop with sand-colored ground, with all players once again sharing the screen using their full models, losers applauding for the victor | In ''[[Super Smash Bros.

In ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', screen transitions much like the ones from ''SSB64'' return, alongside camera angles from ''Brawl''. However, they are visually more intense and dynamic compared to all previous installations, with screen transitions including a slash across the screen or a glass-shattering effect, and camera angles being considerably more fluid. While the game still features a similar sunset backdrop as ''Brawl'' (though with the addition of several monuments in the distance), an additional spotlight in the shape of the ''Smash Bros.'' logo focuses on the victor as their animation plays. Once the [[announcer]] calls out the victor's name, the screen will dramatically shift to the shade of the victor's player color (either red, blue, yellow, green, orange, cyan, purple, or slate for human players, grey for [[CPU]] players, or mauve for [[amiibo]]). This lasts for the entire results screen on the 3DS version, but quickly reverts to the normal background if playing on the Wii U. The losers clap off-screen in a separate "results" window like in ''Melee'', although they do not clap on the results screen in {{for3ds}} or in team battles in either version of ''SSB4''. | In ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', screen transitions much like the ones from ''SSB64'' return, alongside camera angles from ''Brawl''.

In '' | In ''Smash 4''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s team battles, only the leading character animates their victory pose. In a timed match, this is the fighter with the best score; in a [[stock]] match, the one with the most stocks/least amount of damage. Their teammates play their after-pose idle animations the whole time instead. In addition, victors will only use a single, fixed victory animation instead of randomly choosing from their existing ones. Some characters will use one of two poses depending on if they were in the lead or not. | ||
In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', the victory screens are similar to that of ''Smash 4'', though with considerable aesthetic upgrades. There are new screen transitions along with returning ones from ''SSB4'', and just like in the ''Wii U'' version, the screen will shade in the victor's player color before turning back to normal. The victory screens now take place on a detailed platform similar to {{SSBU|Battlefield}} rather than sandy ground, and many characters move around more rather than remaining static.

{{SSBU|Joker}} has two completely unique victory screens based on the results screen from ''Persona 5''.

Normally, he constantly runs to the left with a panning red background and jagged lines surrounding him. The jagged lines use his port color in matches with three or more players. The announcer does not call out his name; instead, the Phantom Thieves chime in with their own comments. If Joker lands the finishing blow with [[All-Out Attack]], the final splash art will remain as the victory screen, as in ''Persona 5''. If the match was played on [[Mementos]], the victory screen's aesthetic and music will change to match the stage. | ||
