*There is an error present at the beginning of the non-Japanese versions of Terry's trailer. When a list of all the Nintendo consoles is shown, the release years of the NES and SNES are those of the Japanese years (1983 and 1990, respectively). However, when the camera zooms in to focus on each Nintendo console, their release years change to that of the North American release years (1985 and 1991, respectively).

*There is a continuity error in the Sephiroth trailer: upon watching at slow motion the scene in which Mario is flung away during the clash between Cloud and Sephiroth, it can be seen that he appears from out of nowhere rather than having been hanging off the Masamune's blade. This is noticeable in the previous take when Sephiroth turns and his sword meets Cloud's: there is nothing indicating Mario's presence, even though his body should have been flung along with the sword and he should have slipped further down due to its now-upright position.
*Despite making an appearance in {{SSBU|Byleth}}'s reveal trailer, Solon does not appear in-game in any capacity. Likewise, {{iw|xenoseries|Niall}} and {{iw|xenoseries|Aegaeon}} appear in {{SSBU|Pyra}} and {{SSBU|Mythra}}'s trailer, but do not appear in-game.

Likewise, {{iw|xenoseries|Niall}} and {{iw|xenoseries|Aegaeon}} appear in {{SSBU|Pyra}} and {{SSBU|Mythra}}'s trailer, but do not appear in-game. Several similar situations occurred in ''Smash 4''{{'}}s reveal trailers, namely {{s|nookipedia|Rosie}} and {{s|nookipedia|Margie}} in {{SSB4|Villager}}'s, the Robot Masters in {{SSB4|Mega Man}}'s, and {{SSB4|Corrin}}'s siblings (with the exceptions of Ryoma and Xander) in his.

*{{SSBU|Min Min}} appears at the beginning of her trailer without her mask and with normal human arms and eyes. This depiction differs from the ''ARMS'' universe, where fighters with the ARMS ability of extendable ARMS are always shown to have coiled arms [[armsinstitute:File:MinMinRamen.png|even when constricted to normal length]] and a spiral pattern in their irises. Fighters are also rarely if ever depicted without a mask (barring Byte & Barq, Helix, and Springtron, as they are non-human, as well as Mechanica, who fights with a mech instead), as it is explained in ''ARMS'' to be a regulator device that prevents their ARMS from extending and contracting uncontrollably.

*{{SSBU|Steve}}'s trailer is the only one in ''Ultimate'' to begin with actual gameplay before proceeding to a CGI portion.
*The initial livestream of Steve's reveal trailer coincided with a massive surge of Tweets that caused Twitter's servers to briefly crash, likely due to the sheer volume of reactions to the reveal. Both [https://twitter.com/Sora_Sakurai/status/1311671639650652160 Masahiro Sakurai] and [https://twitter.com/Minecraft/status/1312437382411481088 the official Minecraft account] acknowledged the crash afterward.

*Several shots from various trailers have become memes shortly after their airing, such as Sonic punching Mario in Steve's trailer, and Mario seemingly getting stabbed by {{SSBU|Sephiroth}} in his own trailer.

*Pyra and Mythra's reveal trailer is the first one to be directed by someone other than Masahiro Sakurai. Instead, it was outsourced to [[Monolith Soft]], the developer of the ''Xenoblade Chronicles'' series.
*Pyra and Mythra’s trailer is the only Figher’s Pass trailer to use music already in the base game, being “Battle!!”.
*Pyra, Mythra, and Kazuya are the only characters with an ESRB reminder when showing what game/series has crossed over with ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''. This oddly does not apply to trailers of other characters from Teen or even Mature-rated series (though it has applied to Mii costumes from Teen-rated series from Challenger Pack 9 onwards). This same warning can be found on their character page on the [[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Official Site|official site]].

*Sora's trailer features the most playable characters in the CGI portions of any reveal trailer with 66 characters, including Sora himself, and counting the male and female versions of Villager, Corrin, and Byleth, as well as [[Pokémon Trainer]] and [[Charizard]] separately.

**Aside from [[Dr. Mario]] and [[Zero Suit Samus]], who are the same entities as Mario and [[Samus]] respectively, and [[Mythra]], who is [[Pyra]]'s original personality until the end of ''Xenoblade Chronicles 2'' when they become separate entities, the only characters that are absent from the trailer are [[Falco]], [[Squirtle]], [[Ivysaur]], [[Mr. Game & Watch]], [[Dark Pit]], [[Duck Hunt]], the [[Mii Fighter]]s, and all of the non-{{uv|Final Fantasy}} third-party characters.
**Aside from [[Dr. Mario]], [[Zero Suit Samus]], and [[Mythra]], who are the same entities as Mario, [[Samus]], and [[Pyra]] respectively (until the very end of ''Xenoblade Chronicles 2'' in Mythra's case), the only characters that are absent from the trailer are [[Falco]], [[Squirtle]], [[Ivysaur]], [[Mr. Game & Watch]], [[Dark Pit]], [[Duck Hunt]], the [[Mii Fighter]]s, and all of the non-{{uv|Final Fantasy}} third-party characters.
***Additionally, while the female Pokémon Trainer and male [[Wii Fit Trainer]] are present, the male Pokémon Trainer and female Wii Fit Trainer (which are the default costumes for those characters) are not.

**It is also the first and only time characters from the {{uv|EarthBound}} and {{uv|Yoshi}} series were featured in a CGI trailer in ''Ultimate'', being [[Ness]], [[Lucas]], and [[Yoshi]] respectively.
**Sora's trailer is the only one to feature all the "Original 12" fighters in a CGI trailer.
*The original concept for Sora's reveal trailer was initially to have Mario swing the Keyblade to open the door, but due to only Keyblade wielders being able to use Keyblades, this idea was changed.<ref>https://twitter.com/PushDustIn/status/1455925326157017095</ref>
