'''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.

If the player chooses to erase all data, there is no way to recover it when erased. As such, ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' advises players to create a copy of the data onto a separate [[memory card]]. However, this is only possible in ''Melee''. The game in ''Smash 64'' is automatically saved to the [[Nintendo 64]] game cartridge on the [[N64]] console | If the player chooses to erase all data, there is no way to recover it when erased.

The game in ''Smash 64'' is automatically saved to the [[Nintendo 64]] game cartridge on the [[N64]] console and doesn't require a memory card to save, and the game data for ''Brawl'' cannot be copied from one [[Wii]] to another (nor to an [[SD Card]]). | ||
''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'' is the first installment in the series which does not have an "Erase Data" option, making it impossible to selectively erase any specific data. In both versions of ''Smash 4'', players can erase all data by holding A, B, X, and Y (though in the [[Wii U]] version, it only works with the [[Wii U GamePad]]) on the startup and selecting "Yes" three times when prompted (just like in ''Brawl'' for "Erase All"). In ''[[Ultimate]]'', the player can manually erase all data under the "Manage Save Data/Screenshots and Videos" option of the Data Management section in the [[Nintendo Switch]]'s System Settings; due to this, a built-in application is not included. | ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'' is the first installment in the series which does not have an "Erase Data" option, making it impossible to selectively erase any specific data.
