Character selection screen: Difference between revisions
Undid edit by Gligar2007: Because one if the CSS in the Japanese version, and the other is (one of) the English one(s). This is an English Wiki, so I don't see why the Japanese one should take full priority.

[[File: | [[File:SSBU Character Select DLC.jpeg|thumb|400px|The character selection screen in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' with all of the characters unlocked and all DLC characters purchased. Echo Fighter stacking is turned off, thus all characters are separately visible.]] | ||
The '''character selection screen''', also called the '''character selection menu''' and abbreviated as '''CSS''', is the menu where a player chooses their [[character]] to be used in a game [[mode]] and also where the player may sometimes make changes to the [[rules]]. The character selection screen is composed of boxed portraits of the heads or busts of playable fighters, normally arranged together by game series or related characters, with more characters added once they are [[unlockable character|unlocked]] or [[Downloadable content|downloaded]]. It is utilized in each game and appears in both single-player and multiplayer modes where the player is not required to use a specific character(s). Character selection screens are almost always uniform across game modes for each game, with the exception of the character selection screen for [[Tournament Mode]] and the [[Subspace Emissary]] single-player mode in ''[[Brawl]]'' which uses a very featureless character selection screen for assembling a party of characters. | The '''character selection screen''', also called the '''character selection menu''' and abbreviated as '''CSS''', is the menu where a player chooses their [[character]] to be used in a game [[mode]] and also where the player may sometimes make changes to the [[rules]].

*''Brawl'' is the only game where characters in the same series are organized vertically instead of horizontally. Series with less than four characters are grouped with characters from similar series. | *''Brawl'' is the only game where characters in the same series are organized vertically instead of horizontally.

*''Super Smash Bros.'' is the only game to feature all portrait boxes for characters that haven't been unlocked, as well as the only game to have character animations for picking a character. These animations were to be implemented also in ''Melee'', but were scrapped, although the animation files remained in the disc. | *''Super Smash Bros.'' is the only game to feature all portrait boxes for characters that haven't been unlocked, as well as the only game to have character animations for picking a character.
