The Wii Remote selection sound is a feature that appears only in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. If a player is using any controller with a Wii Remote (including just the Wii Remote held sideways, the Wii Remote with a Nunchuk, or the Classic Controller), when they select a character on the character selection screen in a Group Brawl, a sound effect will be emitted from that player's Wii Remote. Each character's sound effect is different, and the volume can be adjusted by using the Home menu. The Random box provides no sound.

Trivia
- The selection sounds for Kirby, Peach, Bowser, and Ganondorf are taken directly from Melee, rather than using the newly-recorded voices for the characters.
- Interestingly, the sound for Ganondorf is unused in Melee and can only be heard in its Sound Test.
- Despite not appearing in Brawl outside of unused files in the game's data, Mewtwo has a Wii Remote selection sound. The file for this in the game's data, however, is empty and does not produce any sound when played back.
