Crowd

Jump to navigationJump to search

The crowd is a group of unseen people that can be heard during matches in all games of the Super Smash Bros. series. The crowd can occasionally be be heard cheering by shouting the name of a character that is used by a human player if they are at high damage and does something significant, such as KOing multiple opponents at once. Every character has a unique cheer chant in each of the Smash Bros. games. Sometimes, if a player can just make it back to the stage, after being knocked far away from the stage, the crowd will gasp. This also happened if the player become helpless in air but still can't reach a platform. In Brawl, the crowd will also gasp whenever a smash ball or legendary pokemon appears (with the exception of Latias and Latios).

In Melee, having the crowd cheer for the player will earn them the "Crowd favorite" bonus, which is worth 2500 points. A player causing the crowd to gasp frequently during the match (at least 3 times every minute) will earn the player the "Master of suspense" bonus, also worth 2500 points. This is the only time in any of the Smash Bros. games the crowd can affect the match.

Trivia

  • The Japanese crowd cheer for Meta Knight is the same as the American cheer.
  • Ike's cheer, "We Like Ike", is often associated with the presidential campaign of Dwight "Ike" Eisenhower.
  • Luigi's cheer is shouted by only a few people, in reference to the fact he is often overshadowed by his brother and ignored by others.
  • Snake's cheer is a reference to Snake's death sequence from the Metal Gear Solid franchise, in which Otacon can be heard repeating Snake's name in the same manner as the crowd cheer.
  • In Japanese versions of Super Smash Bros. Brawl, King Dedede's crowd cheer is different - as he is not known as a "King" in Japan, his crowd cheer is "De - De - De -- De De De -- De - De - De - De - De - De - De!"
