The Credits are a feature shown at the end of a game that list the cast and staff members who worked on it. Super Smash Bros., Super Smash Bros. Melee, and Super Smash Bros. 4 has this feature. Super Smash Bros. Brawl's has a similar feature, the Character Roll Call, except it lists the characters, items and trophies instead. Standard ending credits do appear in Brawl after completing the Subspace Emissary, though in a different format than its predecessors.

In Super Smash Bros.

Ending Credits in SSB.

After beating 1P Game, the credits will slowly pass by. When shooting a staff name, the screen will pause long enough to let the player read the name of the staff member. By pressing Start, the credits will speed up and will not pause if the player shoots them. If the player presses the B Button, then the credits will pause; hitting B again on a name will show the staff member's contributions to the game. Pressing the A or Start buttons or pressing B on a blank space will resume the credits.

If a secret character is not unlocked yet, anything relating to that character will appear as "?????" in the information box.

A remix of the track that plays in the credits from SSB appears as an unlockable CD in Brawl.

In Super Smash Bros. Melee

Credits in SSBM.
At the end of the credits, the player is told how many credits they hit.

After beating Classic Mode, Adventure Mode or All-Star Mode, the credits will appear as they do in Super Smash Bros.. However, the credits go by much faster, have different paths that they can move (unlike the original, where they all moved the same direction) and do not pause when shot. The background is also different; wheras the original game had a blank, black background, Melee 's credits feature what appears to be space, as the player travels around tunnels, a giant Smash logo, and some types of futuristic architecture. As in the previous game, the player can press Start to speed up the credits, as well as use B to pause the action.

Some credits, such as the voice actors for secret characters, are not available immediately.

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Credits in Brawl.

Unlike the previous two games where the completion of the primary 1P modes resulted in the player seeing the ending credits, the ending credits in Brawl only play when the Subspace Emissary is completed (and after Tabuu is defeated in subsequent playthroughs of the same Subspace Emissary file). The ending credits in Brawl are drastically different than the ending credits of the previous game, where the credits do not scroll, appear with a plain black background, and the shooting minigame that the ending credits of the previous game had is no longer present. Boxes will also appear during the credits that show short clips of movies from The Subspace Emissary. Using the GameCube controller's C-Stick or the Classic Controller's right control stick, the player can rotate the credits.

The music that plays during Brawl's ending credits is Credits.

At the end of Classic Mode and All-Star Mode, the player instead views the Character Roll Call, which replaces the Ending Credits minigame for these modes.

In Super Smash Bros. 4

The credits return to Classic Mode and All-Star Mode, where unlike in the previous games, instead of shooting the names, the player can use their fighter to attack the names. As attacks hit, the hit rectangle flies to the background, to assemble the character's ending image. The player can speed up the credits, but then can not attack the credits when the they are fast-forwarded. The player is awarded 1 Gold per 1% of image - also, if 99.99% of the image is filled, the game automatically rounds the score up.

In the Wii U version, some of the credits scroll left, instead of all of them scrolling up. In addition, Screw Attacks, X Bombs, Super Mushrooms, and Smart Bombs that don't hurt the user float by on balloons, which can be popped to release the item for use.

The credits music, which remains the same regardless of chosen character, consists of a medley of main themes from games of the Super Smash Bros. series, including the current installment, arranged by Torine.

As of version 1.0.6, additional credits for post-release content such as "DLC voice actors" will also be present, which as a result also gives more chances to complete the picture.

Trivia

  • There was originally a rumor of Toad being playable in Melee by scoring a perfect in the ending credits. This was proven false later in time, mostly due to coming from a fan site.
  • In the PAL version of Melee, at the end of the credits, it will say "Certain characters and items from Perfect Dark and Donkey Kong Country 2. Donkey Kong Rap music based on original Donkey Kong 64 music courtesy of Rare Ltd."
  • In the PAL version of Melee, a higher score is possible due to the credits of the European localisers.
  • In SSB4, if a character from the Mario series is used in the credits sequence, the font used for "Congratulations" changes to a Mario themed font.
    • This also applies to its spin off universes Donkey Kong and Wario. Though Yoshi is a Mario spin off, Yoshi's ending image doesn't use a Mario style font.
