After the Super Smash Bros. release in Japan, Nintendo began a poll to gauge public interests for future roster additions. Of the top ten, seven have since been added, with the remaining three left out. James Bond was most likely left out due to legal reasons, as he is not originally a video game character and belongs to a more strict estate. While not playable, Mew and Toad both make cameos with Mew being a rare Pokeball result and Toad being used in one of Peach's attacks in later games.

In the background of the Mushroom Kingdom stage, Green Koopa Troopas can be seen walking back and forth across platforms. This contradicts every Mario game to date where Red Koopas turn when coming to an edge while Green Koopas will simply walk off the edge.

Captain Falcon has the most usable costumes in the game, with six. Most characters have four or five. Yoshi also has six, but only four are usable outside of hacking, as two only appear in the single player mode.

When the Announcer introduces Metal Mario, his voice becomes slightly metallic. Although it may just be to place emphasis on Metal Mario's metal composition, the Announcer's voice sounds noticeably deeper and it does not change like that for any other character in Classic Mode.

According to an interview with Satoru Iwata, Masahiro Sakurai intended for the characters to use Final Smashes in this game. It was taken out due to hardware limitations. This concept was held off until Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Going in the debug menu you can find 3 sound files. 2 of them of Ness saying "PK" and "Starstorm!". The third is Captain Falcon saying "Come On!".
