* ''VideoGame/TheKingOfFighters'' is no stranger to these throughout its various iterations.
** Rugal is well-known for being a [[SNKBoss cheap son of a bitch]]. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQ7yG9oI-FI But in the unlikely event that you dodge in front of him while he's charging a Kaiser Wave]] in ''[[DreamMatchGame 2002]]''... well, watch the video. Believe it or not, that's just peanuts compared to THIS: Time the release right when they get behind you, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5fxoulcPogc and Rugal'll fire it like normal,]] but the Kaiser Wave will stay lodged onto the opponent, constantly draining their health. It moves when Rugal moves, so you can get it off the opponent normally, but it's still a hilarious bug to pull off, provided you don't mind losing some friends.
*** The Kaiser Drill bug is still in ''[[UpdatedRerelease Unlimited Match]]'' and ''Neowave'' as well.
** In ''2003'', Jhun has a move where he stomps on the opponent's head. However, a glitch allows Jhun to be able to roll during the hit animation, even though Jhun is still in the air. This causes Jhun to float above the ground and messes up the knockback of some of his moves, causing strange and amusing results. For example, Jhun is able to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9QpYoHprg_c shin kick his opponent to death.]] In addition, Jhun can also unfloat himself by hitting his opponent with the stomp attack again, but, if he misses, it's possible to have Jhun freeze himself until time runs out or until his opponent hits him. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jgRqXcOj8K4 More amusing results ensue.]]
** ''KOF XI'' newcomer [[DeathDealer Oswald]] has a Desperation Move called Four Suits, which can be delayed by holding down the C button. While doing so, Oswald rapidly spins in place, which allows him to [[SpinToDeflectStuff deflect]] and [[AttackReflector redirect]] enemy projectiles. Once the button is released, Oswald will surge forward and unleash an autocombo if the initial ram connects. Four Suits can additionally be Dream Canceled into Joker, [[LimitBreak Oswald's Leader Desperation Move]], wherein Oswald pins his opponent into the far wall and skewers them with all 52 cards in his deck. Sounds straightforward, right? The thing is, if Four Suits was used to send back a projectile, said projectile can still register as a hit while the character is rendered immobile by Joker, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Epl9EV2I0B8 thus allowing them to escape before Oswald starts flinging his cards.]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZbiECM8KS7Y Certain players have found ways to include this bug as part of (highly situational) combos.]]

* ''VideoGame/DissidiaFinalFantasy'' gives us the Link Glitch. The trick is to use a projectile attack of some sort, then use a second attack; if the projectile hits the opponent at ''just'' the right moment as you do the second attack, the game will read it as the second attack hitting instead. Notable combos made possible by this glitch include [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyX Yuna]] chaining Impulse into Heavenly Strike, [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyVI Terra]] chaining Meteor and Meltdown into Holy Combo, and [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyIV Cecil]] chaining Searchlight into Paladin Force. The latter example is particularly amusing as Searchlight has much greater range than Paladin Force, resulting in Cecil swooping halfway across the arena in a split second to attack if the glitch is pulled off successfully. Some more amusing but less useful (due to being too circumstantial) instances include [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII Cloud]] chaining Fire into Braver, [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyI Warrior of Light]] in EX Mode chaining White Fang into any melee attack, and [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyIV Golbez]] chaining Attack System into another one of his Bravery attacks that includes its own link to Cosmic Ray. The glitch is not minded at all by the playerbase, as most of the characters who can access it either could use the boost or can't do so in a way that makes them overpowered.

** The double [[SwitchOutMove snapback]] glitch is an extremely common way for top level players to punish assist calls, as demonstrated nicely in [[https://youtu.be/sZZUMjoxfZA?t=8s the 0:08 mark from this legendary video.]] What happens is that when you hit both the point character[[note]]The term for the character the player is actually controlling[[/note]] and the assist character simultaneously with a snapback, the assist character remains on the screen while the point character is knocked away. If you can pick up the assist character in a juggle before they hop away, you can infinitely juggle the assist character until they die, often by simply hitting them with a LauncherMove repeatedly. The only requirements are one bar of meter to perform the snapback and to be close enough to the corner that you can get to the assist character in time to juggle them, which are well worth it if it means being able to punish particularly oppressive assists.

* ''VideoGame/StreetFighterII'':
** The Guile Handcuffs glitch, which was turned into an actual attack in the video game version of the movie. There's also invisible Dhalsim, which later got turned into his Yoga Teleport.
** And the glitch that turned Ryu and Ken's Hadouken red instead of blue, which was [[AscendedGlitch deliberately incorporated]] into console versions and later spawned a separate move for Ryu.
** And possibly the granddaddy of good bad bugs -- the ability to 'buffer' the end of a normal attack's animation into a special move -- was originally due to a programming oversight. They decided to keep it during development, and retooled the game to make use of it.
** The buffering, also known as canceling, was an official feature known as 2-in-1 and by itself was nothing spectacular. But then, high-level players began to find unintentional ways to make combos longer than standard 2-hit combos:
*** Link Combos: when one move ends fast enough to quickly combo another move without buffering. This is the reason Guile was top-tier in early days.
*** Negative Edge: a bug which allows, among other things, the player to throw a special projectile immediately after a normal projectile, became so popular that it was coded on purpose in many Capcom fighting games.
*** Kara Cancel: the ability to cancel a move without hitting your opponent. While it didn't quite play any large role in ''SFII'', it would become an important gaming mechanic in later games, such as the Kara Throws in ''VideoGame/StreetFighterIII'' and the Roll Cancels in ''[[VideoGame/CapcomVsSNK2MarkOfTheMillennium Capcom vs. SNK 2]]'', for example.
** {{Combos}} themselves were essentially a glitch discovered while playtesting the game and left in, now a term and concept expanded such that it is about as ubiquitous to combat in video gaming as HitPoints.
* ''VideoGame/StreetFighterV'': Super moves have a 'superflash' before use where the action freezes and your character poses for two seconds before doing the move. Blanka, however, can cancel his superflash animation in this game into his Surprise Forward dash. The problem is that the action still freezes, so you get two seconds of your opponent standing there completely open. That's enough time to do whatever move you feel like doing, and the meter you used for the superflash isn't actually consumed. If you're good enough, this even turns into a free infinite.
* The 3D ''Franchise/MortalKombat'' games are no strangers to hilarious bugs. Particularly in ''[[VideoGame/MortalKombatDeception Deception]]'', if you perform a fatality motion while the victim performs the Hara-Kiri motion at the same time, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A-egksufiao this happens.]] At 1:12, a guy punches his head off. ''After [[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments punching his own arms off]].''
** At 0:58, a guy attempts to pull another guy apart, but then breaks his back, ''his entire upper torso exploding right off the rest of his body.'' Then, what's left of his body [[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments does a little victory dance]].
** The SNES version of ''Ultimate VideoGame/MortalKombat3'' is one of the buggiest fighting games ever, but the most notable bug is Ghost Sheeva. Sometimes, the random character select in Tournament mode will land on the default icon. This produces a small blob of pixels (sometimes blood) given the name Sheeva (the actual Sheeva was DummiedOut of the game). Certain characters can't hurt her at all, she can perform 100% sweeping combos, and while she can be defeated (and even hit with Fatalities if she's the last opponent, though most cause the game to glitch), it's very hard to do so without making the game lock up.

** In the [=PlayStation=] version of ''Mortal Kombat Trilogy'', turn the timer off and play a two-player match. Then set the controllers down. Someone forgot to code the music to loop, because after a few minutes, it fades out and moves on to the next theme. This doesn't just include stage themes - ''everything'' in the music select will play. After the Acid Pool theme, for example, it plays the Animality, Babality, and Continue music.
* [[AIBreaker Anti-A.I. moves]] in ''[[VideoGame/SoulSeries Soulcalibur III]]'' are moves that while easy for a human to dodge and punish, stupefy the A.I. and are easily spammed, the enemy only dodging coincidentally (such as dodging to the side when up against the wall, something they are doing because of the wall, not the attack). Why is this a good bug? [[TheComputerIsACheatingBastard The A.I. blatantly cheats]], so it's nice to finally be able to turn that around for once.
** And for some reason, the final boss of Chronicles of the Sword Mode is completely weak to the basic horizontal swipe of one of the sword styles.

The response of the A.I. will be to block until it reaches its unblockable state, then try to attack. By releasing it shortly after it becomes unblockable and then quickly starting it up again, it's possible (and usually quite easy) to beat even the hardest A.I. without them landing a scratch on you.

* ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosMelee'':
** The famous 'wavedashing', though a case could be made that it's not actually a bug but rather a logical side effect to how the game's air dodge system works when used near the ground. An interview implied that director Masahiro Sakurai doesn't necessarily consider it a bug either. Fans are divided on whether they [[StopHavingFunGuys make the game more exciting and tactical]], or [[{{Scrub}} unfair and not the way the game should be played]], though the interview with Sakurai noted that wavedashing was removed from the subsequent ''Smash Bros.'' games to [[WordOfGod make the game less hard for less skilled players]].
** The 'black hole' glitch can produce some neat graphical effects until too much stuff is added; then the game crashes. By firing a Super Scope in exactly the right pattern, you can glitch it so that it has infinite ammo. Then, set up one Fox (or Falco) that is on the same team as the one with the Super Scope, and another from a different team a certain distance apart from each other, and have them both activate their Reflectors. The character with the Super Scope then starts firing rapid-fire Super Scope shots through his ally's Reflector and into his opponent's Reflector. The shots bounce off the first, and then off the second, and off the first again, in a chain reaction. If the two Reflectors are properly spaced, the detonations of the shots will stabilize to the point that there is a constant mass of shots without any more needing to be fired. Then, someone who is playing as Peach can produce vegetables and throw them into the blasts, causing them to get trapped and hover in a big deadly mass. Anyone that jumps into that will promptly have their damage count skyrocket to 999% from repeated hits.
** By performing as poorly as possible on the first level of Adventure Mode - racking up penalties for suicide, "stale moves," etc. while avoiding bonuses, it's possible to finish the level with a negative score. This counts as 999,999,999 toward your total score. However, the total-for-all-characters score is a [[UsefulNotes/PowersOfTwoMinusOne 32-bit signed value]], which means as you do this with more and more characters, the total score will loop from just over 2 billion to just under ''negative'' 2 billion, and back again; doing this trick with all characters leaves the total score at around -769,000,000, which can never be corrected except by erasing the high scores in the menu.
** If one manages to exploit a bug in the Name Option of the game, which registers the character selected as "0," something interesting happens. The character that goes by the number "0" is none other than ''[[FinalBoss Master Hand]]'', who is fully playable in Multi-Man Mode and Event Mode (and only mostly playable in the Vs. Mode, as Master Hand doesn't have a victory pose). If you lose, however, it doesn't matter, as Master Hand doesn't really ''need'' a losing pose. This glitch went undiscovered for ''seven years''.
* ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosBrawl'':
** Activating Jigglypuff's Final Smash between the two halves of the bridge in the [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTwilightPrincess Bridge of Eldin]] level with the right timing can cause Jigglypuff to be knocked down without completing the Final Smash, letting you play with Giga-Jiggly.
** In addition, if there is an enemy Yoshi playing on the same stage, have him use his standard B on Giga-Jiggly. It'll end up in a giant egg and pop out bigger than before. You can keep doing this until Jigglypuff gets so big that it touches the 'death' areas of the map and automatically dies.
** When certain characters activate their Final Smash in that same spot right before the bridge comes back, the Final Smash will be cancelled, but the character is still zoomed in on the character just as it is when the Final Smash gets activated, and never stops being zoomed in until the match is over.
** ''Brawl'' also has a glitch with the up-and-down moving platforms in the Stage Creator, which allows one to 'teleport' from the edge of the platform up to a sloped section of ground adjacent to that platform at the top of its movement. You can even land Smash Attacks on opponents that are ''several feet above you''! See [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T7pnbF-LRAc this video]] for a demonstration.
** There is also another glitch involving Sonic's side-B Spin Dash. If he does it in a Stage Builder Stage at the beginning of a slope that leads to nothing, he'll just continue spin-dashing straight to the air, presumably having something to do with the fact that the side-B variation of the move has a little hop in the beginning, which, if done close enough to a slope, won't activate. Instead, he'll just roll upwards, and then the floating begins. If a character gets hit by Sonic as he rolls through the air, he'll teleport above the screen and take a really long time to get down.
** There's also the exploit in the stage builder, called Smash Stack, that allows homebrew (including {{Game Mod}}s) to be loaded from an SD card without having to modify your console, spawning an extremely large modding community for Brawl, unprecedented for a console game, and giving an alternative to the since-patched [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTwilightPrincess Twilight]] Hack for those wanting to either install unrelated homebrew or play mods for other games (such as ''VideoGame/NewerSuperMarioBrosWii''). The biggest example of this is ''VideoGame/ProjectM'', which goes far beyond a simple mod for ''Brawl'' and is considered a separate game in its own right.

** The 'black hole' glitch can produce some neat graphical effects until too much stuff is added; then the game crashes. By firing a Super Scope in exactly the right pattern, you can glitch it so that it has infinite ammo. Then, set up one Fox (or Falco) that is on the same team as the one with the Super Scope, and another from a different team a certain distance apart from each other, and have them both activate their Reflectors. The character with the Super Scope then starts firing rapid-fire Super Scope shots through his ally's Reflector and into his opponent's Reflector. The shots bounce off the first, and then off the second, and off the first again, in a chain reaction. If the two Reflectors are properly spaced, the detonations of the shots will stabilize to the point that there is a constant mass of shots without any more needing to be fired. Then, someone who is playing as Peach can produce vegetables and throw them into the blasts, causing them to get trapped and hover in a big deadly mass. Anyone that jumps into that will promptly have their damage count skyrocket to 999% from repeated hits.
** By performing as poorly as possible on the first level of Adventure Mode - racking up penalties for suicide, "stale moves," etc. while avoiding bonuses, it's possible to finish the level with a negative score. This counts as 999,999,999 toward your total score. However, the total-for-all-characters score is a [[UsefulNotes/PowersOfTwoMinusOne 32-bit signed value]], which means as you do this with more and more characters, the total score will loop from just over 2 billion to just under ''negative'' 2 billion, and back again; doing this trick with all characters leaves the total score at around -769,000,000, which can never be corrected except by erasing the high scores in the menu.
** If one manages to exploit a bug in the Name Option of the game, which registers the character selected as "0," something interesting happens. The character that goes by the number "0" is none other than ''[[FinalBoss Master Hand]]'', who is fully playable in Multi-Man Mode and Event Mode (and only mostly playable in the Vs.

* ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosBrawl'':
** Activating Jigglypuff's Final Smash between the two halves of the bridge in the [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTwilightPrincess Bridge of Eldin]] level with the right timing can cause Jigglypuff to be knocked down without completing the Final Smash, letting you play with Giga-Jiggly.
** In addition, if there is an enemy Yoshi playing on the same stage, have him use his standard B on Giga-Jiggly. It'll end up in a giant egg and pop out bigger than before. You can keep doing this until Jigglypuff gets so big that it touches the 'death' areas of the map and automatically dies.
** When certain characters activate their Final Smash in that same spot right before the bridge comes back, the Final Smash will be cancelled, but the character is still zoomed in on the character just as it is when the Final Smash gets activated, and never stops being zoomed in until the match is over.
** ''Brawl'' also has a glitch with the up-and-down moving platforms in the Stage Creator, which allows one to 'teleport' from the edge of the platform up to a sloped section of ground adjacent to that platform at the top of its movement. You can even land Smash Attacks on opponents that are ''several feet above you''! See [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T7pnbF-LRAc this video]] for a demonstration.
** There is also another glitch involving Sonic's side-B Spin Dash. If he does it in a Stage Builder Stage at the beginning of a slope that leads to nothing, he'll just continue spin-dashing straight to the air, presumably having something to do with the fact that the side-B variation of the move has a little hop in the beginning, which, if done close enough to a slope, won't activate. Instead, he'll just roll upwards, and then the floating begins. If a character gets hit by Sonic as he rolls through the air, he'll teleport above the screen and take a really long time to get down.
** There's also the exploit in the stage builder, called Smash Stack, that allows homebrew (including {{Game Mod}}s) to be loaded from an SD card without having to modify your console, spawning an extremely large modding community for Brawl, unprecedented for a console game, and giving an alternative to the since-patched [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTwilightPrincess Twilight]] Hack for those wanting to either install unrelated homebrew or play mods for other games (such as ''VideoGame/NewerSuperMarioBrosWii'').

Since, if all three hits connect, it deals 48HP damage -- which is a third of a health bar -- this makes it highly abusable and the only reason Tron has any competitive use.
** Similar to Tron's projectile assist glitch, the [[{{Shotoclone}} Shoto characters']][[note]]Ryu, Ken, Akuma[[/note]] [[HurricaneKick Tatsumaki Senpukyaku]] specials do not possess any damage scaling, leading to their Aerial Raves usually becoming nothing more than a single midair Tatsu in the hands of savvy players.
** Keep mashing the kick button on VideoGame/CaptainCommando's electric shock throw and he will continue draining their life, indefinitely. You can literally empty someone's health bar in one go if you're good enough at this.

** Diavolo has a move where, if he's hit, time briefly stops for the opponent. However, someone seems to have missed a flag, because unlike any other counter-attack in the game, it counts as an attack -- [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aJ9xEEm2isk which means it triggers other counter-attacks.]]
** On that note, if you fire projectiles at a downed opponent and then taunt when the projectile is above the foe, they will get up, lose some of their HH gauge, and get hit, allowing for more combos.
* The entire competitive scene of ''VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcom2'' consists of these. High-level play looks absolutely nothing like what the game was originally intended to be, and a series of glitches and bugs spawned one of the fastest and most insane competitive fighters ever made. Mostly by accident.

** The SNES version of ''Ultimate VideoGame/MortalKombat3'' is one of the buggiest fighting games ever, but the most notable bug is Ghost Sheeva. Sometimes, the random character select in Tournament mode will land on the default icon. This produces a small blob of pixels (sometimes blood) given the name Sheeva (the actual Sheeva was DummiedOut of the game). Certain characters can't hurt her at all, she can perform 100% sweeping combos, and while she can be defeated (and even hit with Fatalities if she's the last opponent, though most cause the game to glitch), it's very hard to do so without making the game lock up.

* ''Franchise/BlazBlue'':
''Rocky'' for the [=PS2=] has a lot of glitches. Ugly zombie-like fighters, fighters that fall through the floor, invisible fighters and a spectacularly messed-up Clubber Lang await you. OK, it makes it impossible to play, but it's almost guaranteed to make people laugh when they see it.
* [[AIBreaker Anti-A.I. moves]] in ''[[VideoGame/SoulSeries Soulcalibur III]]'' are moves that while easy for a human to dodge and punish, stupefy the A.I. and are easily spammed, the enemy only dodging coincidentally (such as dodging to the side when up against the wall, something they are doing because of the wall, not the attack). Why is this a good bug? [[TheComputerIsACheatingBastard The A.I. blatantly cheats]], so it's nice to finally be able to turn that around for once.
**In ''VideoGame/BlazBlueChronophantasma'', Noel's win And for some reason, the final boss of Chronicles of the Sword Mode is completely weak to the basic horizontal swipe of one of the sword styles.
** The money glitch, in which you buy everything you can from the shop, leave the shop ''without saving'', and then start up Chronicles of the Sword. Intentionally lose the fight/mission and, somehow, you get all your money back. Result: infinite gold.
* Similarly, in ''[[VideoGame/SoulSeries Soulcalibur IV]]'', Yoshimitsu's Bullet Cutter attack. The Bullet Cutter can be held, which will turn it from a normal attack into an unblockable attack. The response of the A.I. will be to block until it reaches its unblockable state, then try to attack. By releasing it shortly after it becomes unblockable and then quickly starting it up again, it's possible (and usually quite easy) to beat even the hardest A.I. without them landing a scratch on you. Take that, Tower of Lost Souls.
* ''VideoGame/StreetFighterII'':
** The Guile Handcuffs glitch, which was turned into an actual attack in the video game version of the movie. There's also invisible Dhalsim, which later got turned into his Yoga Teleport.
** And the glitch that turned Ryu and Ken's Hadouken red instead of blue, which was [[AscendedGlitch deliberately incorporated]] into console versions and later spawned a separate move for Ryu.
** And possibly the granddaddy of good bad bugs -- the ability to 'buffer' the end of a normal attack's animationagainst [[ChivalrousPervert Kagura]] has her run off-screen nervously. However, if Noel wins into a special move -- was originally due to a programming oversight. They decided to keep it during development, and retooled the game to make use of it.
** The buffering, also known as canceling, was an official feature known as 2-in-1 and by itself was nothing spectacular. But then, high-level players began to find unintentional ways to make combos longer than standard 2-hit combos:
*** Link Combos: when one move ends fast enough to quickly combo another move without buffering. This is the reason Guile was top-tier in early days.
*** Negative Edge: a bug which allows, among other things, the player to throw a special projectile immediately after a normal projectile, became so popular that it was coded on purpose in many Capcom fighting games.
*** Kara Cancel: the ability to cancel a move without hitting your opponent. While it didn't quite play any large role in ''SFII'', it would become an important gaming mechanic in later games, such as the Kara Throws in ''VideoGame/StreetFighterIII'' and the Roll Cancels in ''[[VideoGame/CapcomVsSNK2MarkOfTheMillennium Capcom vs. SNK 2]]'', for example.
** {{Combos}} themselves were essentially a glitch discovered while playtesting the game and left in, now a term and concept expanded such that it is about as ubiquitous to combat in video gaming as HitPoints.
* ''VideoGame/StreetFighterV'': Super moves have a 'superflash' before use where the action freezes and your character poses for two seconds before doing the move. Blanka, however, can cancel his superflash animation in this game into his Surprise Forward dash. The problem is that the action still freezes, so you get two seconds of your opponent standing there completely open. That's enough time to do whatever move you feel like doing, and the meter you used for the superflash isn't actually consumed. If you're good enough, this even turns into a free infinite.
* ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosBrawl'':
** Activating Jigglypuff's Final Smash between the two halves of the bridge in the [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTwilightPrincess Bridge of Eldin]] level withan [[DeathOrGloryAttack Astral Finish]], the camera will continue right timing can cause Jigglypuff to follow her as she runs away outside be knocked down without completing the playable Final Smash, letting you play with Giga-Jiggly.
** In addition, if there is an enemy Yoshi playing on the same stage, have him use his standard B on Giga-Jiggly. It'll end up in a giant egg and pop out bigger than before. You can keep doing this until Jigglypuff gets so big that it touches the 'death' areas of the map and automatically dies.
** When certain characters activate their Final Smash in that same spot right before the bridge comes back, the Final Smash will be cancelled, but the character is still zoomed in on the character just as it is when the Final Smash gets activated, and never stops being zoomed in until the match is over.
** ''Brawl'' also has a glitch with the up-and-down moving platforms in the Stage Creator, which allows one to 'teleport' from the edge of the platform up to a sloped section of ground adjacent to that platform at the top of its movement. You can even land Smash Attacks on opponents that are ''several feet above you''! See [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T7pnbF-LRAc this video]] for a demonstration.
** There is also another glitch involving Sonic's side-B Spin Dash. If he does it in a Stage Builder Stage at the beginning of a slope that leads to nothing, he'll just continue spin-dashing straight to the air, presumably having something to do with the fact that the side-B variation of the move has a little hop in the beginning, which, if done close enough to a slope, won't activate. Instead, he'll just roll upwards, and then the floating begins. If a character gets hit by Sonic as he rolls through the air, he'll teleport above the screen and take a really long time to get down.
** There's also the exploit in the stage builder, called Smash Stack, that allows homebrew (including {{Game Mod}}s) to be loaded from an SD card without having to modify your console, spawning an extremely large modding community for Brawl, unprecedented for a console game, and giving an alternative to the since-patched [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTwilightPrincess Twilight]] Hack for those wanting to either install unrelated homebrew or play mods for other games (such as ''VideoGame/NewerSuperMarioBrosWii''). The biggest example of this is ''VideoGame/ProjectM'', which goes far beyond a simple mod for ''Brawl'' and is considered a separate game in its own right.
* ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosForNintendo3DSAndWiiU'':
** If Wario-Man transforms back to Wario during the end of the match with just the right timing (specifically, when he is invisible), he is playable on the results screen and can harass the winners.
** There's also a bug involved with Wario's vectoring where, once launched, with the right button presses, he can hurtle himself back to the stage using the momentum from being launched. This was (unfortunately) removed in a patch.
* ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosMelee'':
** The famous 'wavedashing', though a case could be made that it's not actually a bug but rather a logical side effect to how the game's air dodge system works when used near the ground. An interview implied that director Masahiro Sakurai doesn't necessarily consider it a bug either. Fans are divided on whether they [[StopHavingFunGuys make the game more exciting and tactical]], or [[{{Scrub}} unfair and not the way the game should be played]], though the interview with Sakurai noted that wavedashing was removed from the subsequent ''Smash Bros.'' games to [[WordOfGod make the game less hard for less skilled players]].
** The 'black hole' glitch can produce some neat graphical effects until too much stuff is added; then the game crashes. By firing a Super Scope in exactly the right pattern, you can glitch it so that it has infinite ammo. Then, set up one [[Franchise/StarFox Fox]] (or [[Franchise/StarFox Falco]]) that is on the same team as the one with the Super Scope, and another from a different team a certain distance apart from each other, and have them both activate their Reflectors. The character with the Super Scope then starts firing rapid-fire Super Scope shots through his ally's Reflector and into his opponent's Reflector. The shots bounce off the first, and then off the second, and off the first again, in a chain reaction. If the two Reflectors are properly spaced, the detonations of the shots will stabilize to the point that there is a constant mass of shots without any more needing to be fired. Then, someone who is playing as [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros Peach]] can produce [[EdibleAmmunition vegetables]] and throw them into the blasts, causing them to get trapped and hover in a big deadly mass. Anyone that jumps into that will promptly have their damage count skyrocket to 999% from repeated hits.
** By performing as poorly as possible on the first level of Adventure Mode - racking up penalties for suicide, "stale moves," etc. while avoiding bonuses, it's possible to finish the level with a negative score. This counts as 999,999,999 toward your total score. However, the total-for-all-characters score is a [[UsefulNotes/PowersOfTwoMinusOne 32-bit signed value]], which means as you do this with more and more characters, the total score will loop from just over 2 billion to just under ''negative'' 2 billion, and back again; doing this trick with all characters leaves the total score at around -769,000,000, which can never be corrected except by erasing the high scores in the menu.
** If one manages to exploit a bug in the Name Option of the game, which registers the character selected as "0," something interesting happens. The character that goes by the number "0" is none other than ''[[FinalBoss Master Hand]]'', who is fully playable in Multi-Man Mode and Event Mode (and only mostly playable in the Vs. Mode, as Master Hand doesn't have a victory pose). If you lose, however, it doesn't matter, as Master Hand doesn't really ''need'' a losing pose. This glitch went undiscovered for ''seven years''.
* ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosUltimate'': Should you have two Isabelles try to reel in an Assist Trophy with their side-specials at the same time, whichever of the Isabelles ended up with it will end up stuck repeating her "Item Get/Use" animation ''and'' using the Assist Trophy over and over again, resulting in ''dozens'' of the summoned character appearing on stage.

However, a skilled player can make a thrown pipe deal even more damage by trapping an opponent against a wall, throwing the pipe and taking advantage of the lengthy HitStop some moves possess (usually the rising attack, performed using down, up + attack) by striking the opponent while the pipe connects, causing it to rack up an absurd number of hits. Using this technique, it is possible to kill the first two bosses in a few seconds each; a similar technique can be used on Power Loaders using ''grenades''. This bug works on the same principle as the PauseScumming glitch in ''VideoGame/MegaMan1''.

This counts as 999,999,999 toward your total score. However, the total-for-all-characters score is a 32-bit signed value, which means as you do this with more and more characters, the total score will loop from just over 2 billion to just under ''negative'' 2 billion, and back again; doing this trick with all characters leaves the total score at around -769,000,000, which can never be corrected except by erasing the high scores in the menu.

* ''VideoGame/StreetFighterV'': Super moves have a 'superflash' before use where the action freezes and your character poses for two seconds before doing the move. Blanka, however, can cancel his superflash animation in this game into his Surprise Forward dash. The problem is that the action still freezes, so you get two seconds of your opponent standing there completely open. That's enough time to do whatever move you feel like doing, and the meter you used for the superflash isn't actually consumed. If you're good enough, this even turns into a free infinite.

*** Using Carmine's No Escape! super on an enemy just as they're knocked out by Ragna's Hell's Fang assist will cause that character to get stuck on-screen in their hitstun pose as the fight continues around them. Amusingly, they'll remain pinned on-screen in some cases even if the fight transitions to a cinematic Astral.
*** One glitch concerns Rachel's Baden-Baden Lily super. Some sort of funny interaction occurs with the Active Tagging system, because if someone calls an assist, begins to attack Rachel and then Active Tags (so that they switch to controlling the assist character instead) between the superflash and the actual damage itself, the super will last for much longer and deal a total of 12,000 damage to the affected character. That's two-thirds of the average health bar.
