(''Ultimate'' isn't on the Wii U, so it can't use the Wii U's word filter.)
m (Undid edit by Bwburke94: A) No, it's because the Switch doesn't have a word filter, and B) That still doesn't address the first restriction.)

In rare cases, names may affect gameplay. For example, in ''[[Melee]]'', name tags remain visible even if they are pointing to an invisible character, making it easier to [[punish]] teleportation special moves such as [[Farore's Wind]] and [[Vanish]].

In {{Forwiiu}}, due to the lack of voice chat when playing any of the [[With Anyone]] modes online, some players use names as a means of communicating with other players, sending messages such as "good game". Griefers however, may change their name to something less appreciated, like "youretrash".

There is also an option to have the game enter a random name. Most of the random names that can appear are names of existing [[Nintendo]] characters.

The Name Entry will refuse to set names such as "[[CPU]]" and "[[Player|P1]]", likely due to them being tags for players without names. However, variations with lowercase letters, such as "Cpu" and "p1", can be set. In {{forwiiu}}, in addition to this, the Name Entry uses the Wii U's native word filter, preventing names with potentially inappropriate jargon from being set.

Neither of these restrictions are present in ''Ultimate'', partially due to the absence of a word filter on the [[Nintendo Switch]].


In ''Melee'', the Name Entry menu is the key to activating the [[Name Entry glitch]] and its derivatives, including the [[Master Hand glitch]].
