*The pink Giant Palutena and first battle condition represents Medusa, the giant-sized Goddess of Darkness who wears a pink dress in ''Kid Icarus'' and is depicted as an immobile boss.

*Palutena's [[Black Hole Laser]] Final Smash features Palutena firing a powerful laser blast, referencing the final boss battle against Medusa in ''Kid Icarus: Uprising'' where Medusa, after being damaged, will transform into her monstrous form and detach her head, where she can fire powerful laser beams from her eye.

*The Giant and Tiny rules reference Thanatos's shapeshifting abilities during his boss battle, where he can transform into a giant foot, or appear tiny after popping out of a Thanatos nesting doll.

*The music track represents Hades' musical theme in ''Kid Icarus: Uprising'' which first plays during his first appearance at the end of the ninth chapter during false credits after defeating Medusa, and once again during his final boss battle.

*Ganondorf starting off with 30% damage, the X Bomb items, and Attack Power ↑ rule reference the later phases of Hades' boss battle where he becomes injured by Pit's Great Sacred Treasure, but transforms into his final form, which uses powerful physical attacks and face-like lasers on his body to shoot lasers at Pit.

*Wario's nose and mustache represents Specknose, a common enemy in ''Kid Icarus'' which takes the appearance of a big nose with a crooked mustache.

*The stage references the Specknose's appearance as an enemy in ''Kid Icarus: Uprising'', while the music track references Specknose's debut as an enemy in ''Kid Icarus''.

*The purple Ganondorf and the green Tiny Ganondorfs starting off with a [[Death's Scythe]] each represent the purple robe-wearing Reaper and the smaller, green robe-wearing Reapettes, cloaked enemies who carry around a scythe fitting their standard "Grim Reaper" stereotypical design.

*The stage and music track represents the Reaper's Fortress, the ravine-like fortress setting of the sixth chapter of ''Kid Icarus: Uprising'' that serves as a gateway to the Underworld, which features Reapers and Reapettes as enemies.
