TriviaEdit
- This video uses the music in the "How to Play" video in Super Smash Bros. Melee which had been previously updated in the "How to Play" video in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
- Similar to Brawl's "How to Play" video, specific buttons are not mentioned, with the video naming buttons as "attack", "special", "shield", etc., likely due to customization of controls.
- This is the second How to Play video that shows the offscreen areas where fighters can be launched towards any blast line.
- In the 3DS version, Mario was reflecting Link's Hero Bow, but in the Wii U version, he was reflecting Mega Man's forward smash.
- Masahiro Sakurai stated in a YouTube video that he wanted to include a more interactive tutorial into the game, but was unable to and had to settle for a non-interactive video.[1]
