TriviaEdit

 
Fire Attack Spirit prior to the 1.1.0 update
  • As with Mr. Game & Watch's forward smash, the feather from the Fire Attack spirit was removed with the 1.1.0 update.
  • The Game & Watch, R.O.B., and Wii Fit universes are the only universes whose spirit battles all have the same character as the main enemy, with Game & Watch's being Mr. Game & Watch.
    • However, the Game & Watch universe is the only one of the three whose spirit battles feature different fighters as minions.
  • All of the Game & Watch non-Fighter spirits are fought on Flat Zone X.
  • Since the Flagman's spirit battle spawns Special Flags, it is the only spirit battle where the player can have more than one stock. Consequently, it is the only spirit battle that can be won by using Kamikazee.
  • All three of the primary Game & Watch spirits are Shield-type.
