TriviaEdit

  • The banner is based on the cover art of Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, though with only the Smash 4 newcomers present. It also incorporates the thematic colors of both versions of the game: red for the 3DS version and blue for the Wii U version.
  • The Mii Fighters are the only Smash 4 newcomers not included on the banner.
  • Robin is the only character who does not use his default costume on the banner; he is instead represented by female Robin.
  • The Spring, Team Healer, the Dragoon Parts, and Daybreak are the only items in Smash 4 that did not appear in the tournament; in the former two's case, it is due to the fact that they are not present in Ultimate.
  • Despite the fact that no fighters or stages debuting in Smash 64, Melee, or Brawl are available for the event, items from the aforementioned games are available for the event. A similar situation also happens in A Tribute to Melee and Brawl Veterans Represent!.
  • Due to Alph being an alternate costume of Olimar, he is the only Smash 4 newcomer not to be present in the event, due to the latter debuting in Brawl.
  • Prior to this event, Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U were officially treated as separate games by Nintendo, while the general public often treated both games as different versions of the same game, referring to them collectively as "Smash 4". This event marks the first time Nintendo themselves shared this sentiment and used the number four in reference to these games.
