==Trivia== | |||
*As of ''Ultimate'', Joker, [[Lucas]] and [[Captain Olimar]] are the only characters who have non-playable characters assist them with both normal and [[special move]]s. In Joker's case, [[Arsene]] participates in all of his normal and special moves while the [[Rebellion Gauge]] is full, and the Phantom Thieves of Hearts participate in [[All-Out Attack]]. | |||
*Joker and [[Richter Belmont]] are the only playable third-party characters to make their fighting game debut in ''Smash''. | |||
*Joker, [[Cloud Strife]], and Richter are the only third-party characters who did not debut in the first game of their home series. | |||
*Joker is one of four characters featured in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series to appear in [[wikipedia:Entertainment Software Rating Board#Ratings|M-rated]] games, the other three being [[Solid Snake]], [[Bayonetta]] and [[Simon Belmont]]. | |||
*Joker is one of three fighters to use an alias and not a form of their real name, the others being Snake and Bayonetta. | |||
**Joker is the only one of the three to not have an established canon name in his debut game, as he is named by the player in ''Persona 5'', much like the protagonists from ''[[Protagonist (Persona 4)|Persona 4]]'' and ''[[Protagonist (Persona 3)|Persona 3]]''. Joker is known as Ren Amamiya in most of his other appearances in the ''Persona'' series, however, he is referred to as Akira Kurusu in the manga version of ''Persona 5''. | |||
**Joker is also the only character in ''Smash'' to have a customizable name in his game(s) of origin but to not have a generic name in ''Smash'', as the [[villager]]s from {{uv|Animal Crossing}}, [[Inkling]]s from {{uv|Splatoon}}, and [[Pokémon trainer]]s from {{uv|Pokémon}} are simply referred to as such. | |||
*Joker's English voice actor is Xander Mobus, who also voices the [[announcer]], [[Master Hand]], and [[Crazy Hand]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'' and ''Ultimate''. This marks the first time that an English voice actor for any one of those characters voices a playable character. | |||
**His Japanese voice actor, Jun Fukuyama, also provides the Japanese voice of [[Roy]]. | |||
*Joker is the third Sega-owned character to be playable in ''Smash'', following [[Sonic the Hedgehog]] and Bayonetta, as Sega owns the ''Persona'' series' developer, Atlus. | |||
*Joker is the first playable third-party character from a sub-series (as ''Persona'' deviates from the ''Megami Tensei'' franchise). | |||
*Joker is the first playable third-party character in ''Smash'' whose game of origin was initially released on an eighth-generation platform, being the PlayStation 4. | |||
*Joker is the most recently created third-party character in ''Smash'', as ''Persona 5'' was released in Japan on September 15, 2016. | |||
**This also makes him the second third-party character to debut in the 21st century, alongside Bayonetta, and the first to debut in the 2010's. | |||
*Joker and Cloud are the only characters who solely originate from a PlayStation console. | |||
**Additionally, he and Cloud are the only third-party characters whose debut games were not released on a Nintendo console prior to their debut in ''Smash''. | |||
**Joker is also the only playable character to not have his game of origin be playable on a Nintendo console. <!--FFVII is available on Switch, Rondo of Blood was on the Wii's Virtual Console, the OG Street Fighter was on the 30th anniversary game (which released on Switch), as well as being released on Wii Virtual Console, and the MSX2 Metal Gear title was released on the NES.--> | |||
*Joker's full debut on a Nintendo console is on the Nintendo 3DS with ''{{s|wikipedia|Persona Q2: New Cinema Labyrinth}}'', which features the main cast of ''Persona 3'', ''4'', and ''5''; Joker's debut in general on a Nintendo console is the Switch version of ''{{s|wikipedia|Sonic Forces}}'', as one of the DLC costumes for the customizable avatar is based on Joker. | |||
*Although Joker is the first fighter to originate from the ''Megami Tensei'' mega-series, the {{b|Spirits|characters}} Tsubasa Oribe and Tsubasa Oribe (Carnage form) come from ''Tokyo Mirage Sessions ♯FE'', a concept crossover between ''Shin Megami Tensei'' and {{uv|Fire Emblem}}, which was developed by Atlus and published by Nintendo. | |||
**However, Tsubasa's Spirits are classified under [[List of spirits (Fire Emblem series)|the ''Fire Emblem'' series]], instead of "[[List of spirits (Others)|others]]". | |||
*Joker is the fourth playable character to have a realistic gun on his person, after [[Captain Falcon]], Snake, and Bayonetta. He is also the second to use it to attack, after Bayonetta. Like Bayonetta, Joker's gun is magically enhanced in the form of firing ammunition made by mental cognition, though Joker's gun is a model gun instead of a real one. That said, it is based on the [[wikipedia:TT pistol|Tokarev TT-33]], a real-world firearm, making Joker the only character to use a firearm in battle based on a real gun. | |||
*In the form of Joker's alternate costume, Joker is the fourth playable character to wear glasses, the first three being [[Iggy Koopa]], [[Bayonetta]], and one of [[Inkling]]'s alternate costumes. | |||
*Joker is the first and so far only character to have more than one [[victory theme]] in the same game, not counting the change made to [[Chrom]]'s victory theme within an update. | |||
*Strangely, Joker is the only character who does not have a character showcase video in the official website. | |||
