The '''announcer''' (also known as the '''Narration''' in Japanese versions and English ''[[Brawl]]'' [[Sound Test]]) is an unseen character that has appeared in all the games of the series, existing to (often but not always) exclaim what is happening in the game or what has happened. Though they have no direct effect on gameplay, the voice does act as an auditory signal for multiple events in the games, both within matches and the various menus (such as saying "Ready? Go!" upon the activation of [[Konga Beat]], [[Donkey Kong]]'s former [[Final Smash]] in ''Brawl'' and ''Smash 4'', which is the only attack in all of the series to involve the Announcer in some way). All of the announcer's voice clips can be heard in the [[sound test]].

The identity of the announcer (real or plot-based alias) has never been revealed within any of the games, and his specific role in the series beyond mechanical has never been clarified, if there is one. The voice actor for the announcer has also always voiced [[Master Hand]] and [[Crazy Hand]], but this relationship has never been elaborated on, if a deliberate relationship between the three even exists.
