'''Erase Data''', previously known as '''Backup Clear''' in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'', is an option in the first three installments of the ''{{b|Super Smash Bros.|series}}'' series. It allows the player to erase any specific data in the game, such as high scores, [[Trophy|trophies]], [[unlockable character]]s, and [[unlockable stage]]s. In all three appearances, the option to erase singular categories of data is available, alongside an "Erase All" ("ALL Data Clear" in ''Smash 64'') option. | '''Erase Data''', previously known as '''Backup Clear''' in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'', is an option in the first three installments of the ''{{b|Super Smash Bros.|series}}'' series.

When the player erases all game data (once "Erase All" is performed), then there is no way to recover it. As such, [[Super Smash Bros. Melee]] advises players to save a copy of game data onto a separate [[memory card]]. However, while that is possible in ''Melee'', this is not possible in ''Smash 64'' nor [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]. The game data is directly saved to the [[Nintendo 64]] game cartridge for ''Smash 64'' | When the player erases all game data (once "Erase All" is performed), then there is no way to recover it.

Neither version of ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'' nor ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' has an "Erase Data" option, making it impossible to selectively erase any specific data. In ''Smash 4'', players can erase all game data by holding A, B, X, and Y on startup (on the 3DS in {{for3ds}} or the Wii U GamePad in {{forwiiu}}) and selecting "Yes" three times when prompted (just like in ''Brawl'' for "Erase All"). However, the only way to erase data in ''Ultimate'', is to erase its data file through the "Manage Save Data/Screenshots and Videos" section of "Data Management," which is located under the [[Nintendo Switch]] system's "System Settings". | Neither version of ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'' nor ''[[Super Smash Bros.
