Meta Knight

Line 171:

*Meta Knight was the first newcomer confirmed for ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' and the last veteran starter confirmed for ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''.

*Barring [[Kirby]]'s cameo in ''{{iw|wikipedia|Arcana|video game}}'', which was released prior to ''Kirby's Dream Land'', Meta Knight is the only fighter from the {{uv|Kirby}} series to debut on a home console.

*Meta Knight's appearance slightly differs between the ''Kirby'' and ''Super Smash Bros.'' series. Specifically, the ends of his visor slightly curve inward, the letter M is printed on his left pauldron, and his attire features purple sabatons, a dark purple cape with a bat insignia and a white ridged collar and, as of ''SSB4'', silver gauntlets. Starting with ''Kirby: Planet Robobot'', his appearance as of ''Super Smash Bros. 4'' has been carried over into the ''Kirby'' games, although the gauntlets were shown in official artwork of the Game Boy Advance and Nintendo DS ''Kirby'' titles, and in ''{{s|wikirby|Kirby Air Ride}}''.

*Meta Knight's appearance slightly differs between the ''Kirby'' and ''Super Smash Bros.'' series. Specifically, the ends of his visor slightly curve inward, the letter M is printed on his left pauldron, and his attire features purple sabatons that previously only appeared in his in-game design from ''Kirby's Avalance'', a dark purple cape with a bat insignia and a white ridged collar and, as of ''SSB4'', silver gauntlets. Starting with ''Kirby: Planet Robobot'', his appearance as of ''Super Smash Bros. 4'' has been carried over into the ''Kirby'' games, although the gauntlets were shown in official artwork of the Game Boy Advance and Nintendo DS ''Kirby'' titles, and in ''{{s|wikirby|Kirby Air Ride}}''.

**Meta Knight's sword is inspired by its appearance in the anime series. Prior to ''Brawl'', the sword did not have a consistent design and was referred to with generic terms, such as "Master Sword". Its ''Brawl'' design, which first appeared in ''Kirby Air Ride'', features four prongs as opposed to the anime's six. Along with the name "Galaxia", this design was incorporated into later games.

*Meta Knight is the only character in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series whose entire special moveset renders him [[helpless]].
