{{speculation}}
"'''ROY'''" is a label listed for a package of unfinished programming found within the code of ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' via hacking the game disc. Because of the name, many speculate it as being proof that [[Roy]] from the Japan-only GBA game ''[[Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade]]'', who also previously appeared in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' as a playable character, was once planned to return as such in Brawl. While entirely possible, it can only be considered speculation as the programmed code contains no information indicating it as such. A common theory is that it was the result of imported data from Melee brought over for referential purposes by the programmers.
 
Another, though more overlooked theory, is that it wasn't in reference to the ''Fire Emblem'' character at all and that the name is actually in reference to a completely different "Roy" (such as [[Roy Campbell]] of the ''[[Metal Gear Solid]]'' series, among others).
 
Of note is that the data for Roy has [[Music_(SSBB)#Removed_Songs|its own unused fanfare]], called "snd_bgm_Z39_FROY". The unused character [[Mewtwo#Hacked data|Mewtwo]] also has an unused fanfare.
