Spectator is an online mode in Super Smash Bros. Brawl available with the game's Nintendo Wi-Fi setup, accessible within the With Anyone menu. Similar to spectator modes in other console games with online connectivity, this mode allows players to remotely view online brawls in action between other players.

Matches you get to view with this mode are totally random, and none of the identities of the players controlling the characters on the spectator's screen are ever displayed. However, this mode can actually be physically beneficial to the spectating players' own game; they can place in-game coin bets on combatants before matches start, and bets on victorious combatants return more coins. The rewards are bigger if the match involves three or four fighters than if it is just a one-on-one brawl, and they often yield more tangible rewards like stickers.

The spectating players' own matches can be allowed by the players themselves to be available for any number of spectators to chance upon and view, by going into the game's Wi-Fi Options submenu and toggling "Allow Spectators" to "Yes".
