''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros'' is a series of MascotFighter {{video game}}s featuring Creator/{{Nintendo}} characters, [[GuestFighter with several exceptions]]. Nintendo is a big company, so these games naturally have LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters. Most of these will be very familiar to fans of the franchises they come from, so see their own pages and {{character sheets}} for specific details.
----
Due to the size, this page has been split into several sections. There are pages for the playable characters as well as for bosses, assists, and other prominent {{NPC}}s who debuted in these games. For playable characters, they are arranged in order of their appearance through the series, grouped through reveals. The number on their folder (and consequently their numbering in ''Ultimate'') indicates the order that they were introduced into the ''Smash Bros.'' series. Echo Fighters are separated in their own section but otherwise arranged by number.

[[folder:VideoGame/Reactance]]

Note: There should only be up to 5 work page drafts at once, but there can also be 5 creator drafts, 5 subpage drafts and 5 useful notes drafts as well. Drafts with status lower than "Definitely tropeable" may be removed.

''Highly Responsive to Prayers'' is a video game developed by ZUN Soft and published by Amusement Makers for the UsefulNotes/PC98 in 1997. It's the first installment in the ''Franchise/{{Touhou}}'' series.
----
!!This game provides examples of:
* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: This isn't [[OddBallInTheSeries even a danmaku game]]. It's more of a weird ''VideoGame/{{Breakout}}'' clone, with some ShootEmUp elements in boss fights.
* KaizoTrap: There is a slight delay between clearing the stage and the score screen. A careless or unlucky could lose a life over getting hit by the Yin-yang orb or enemy shots. Thankfully boss battles avert this.
* StalkedByTheBell: There's random bullets shooting at you if the clock runs out on any stage.

----
!!This game provides examples of:

* HoldTheLine: Every single battle in Extra Stages as Komachi or Eiki are this. The enemy is invulnerable for a set amount of time and you must survive until their time is up, at which they often screw up on purpose.
* ViciousCycle: The events of this game happen every sixty years. But there is no real danger save for confused people picking random fights with each other, which is just another day in Gensokyo, and the incident resolves itself eventually.

----
!!This game provides examples of:
* BeneathTheEarth: This game introduces a society of "hated" youkai living underground; surface youkai are forbidden from entering their realm due to an ancient treaty, but the opposite is not true. This realm includes the former site of Hell - it was relocated due to overcrowding, but some of the workers and evil spirits are still around.
* BossWarningSiren: Utsuho Reiuji, the [[ILoveNuclearPower nuclear-powered]] [[CreepyCrows Hell raven girl]] (and final boss) of the game, has the distinction of prefixing each of her spell cards with klaxons while the text "'''CAUTION!!'''" flares on-screen.
* MissionControl: Various youkai provide this to Reimu and Marisa, leading to different ammo/bombs, different special skills for Reimu, different dialogs and endings, and different ways of getting horribly mauled by Satori.

''Ten Desires'' is a video game created by Team Shanghai Alice for Windows computers in 2011. It's the thirteenth installment in the ''Franchise/{{Touhou}}'' series.
----
!!This game provides examples of:
* BreakingTheFourthWall: Kogasa states that she keeps losing to Yoshika [[GameplayAndStorySegregation because she always times out]].
* CreepyCemetery: It's revealed that Myouren Temple has a very vast cemetery in its backyard. Our heroes fight the Jiangshi Yoshika and her very oppressive poisonous kunai danmaku over it. Then it's revealed that the Buddhist monks deliberately built the cemetery over a different mausoleum to prevent their rival Taoist liches from resurrecting themselves.
* GameBreakingBug: The game would crash if you are not using a bomb, a valuable resource, when the Survival Card of the Extra Boss ends. This is the ''second last'' attack in the entire game. Even worse, that makes it [[UnwinnableByMistake impossible to capture]] in Spellcard mode because you aren't ''given'' any bombs to start with.

''Legacy of Lunatic Kingdom'' is a video game created by Team Shanghai Alice for Windows computers in 2015. It's the fifteenth installment in the ''Franchise/{{Touhou}}'' series.
----
!!This game provides examples of:
* DevelopersForesight: [[FinalBoss Junko]] has two sets of dialogue if you played on either [[VideoGameLives Legacy Mode]] or [[FinalDeath Point]][[CheckPoint device Mode]], wherein she berates you for being flawed (i.e., dying multiple times) in the former, and is surprised as to how you made it this far without making mistakes (since Pointdevice uses the Chapter Finishes as [[CheckPoint checkpoints]] if you die) for the latter. In an aversion to GameplayAndStorySegregation, she'll use the Pointdevice dialogue on Legacy if you [[SelfImposedChallenge happen to get to her]] [[NoCasualtiesRun without dying once]].
* DualBoss: During the BonusBoss fight against [[spoiler:Hecatia Lapizlazuli], normally she takes turns attacking you with [[spoiler:Junko]], the game's FinalBoss. However, for the finale, they attack together.
* HyperspaceLanes: This game reveals that the "normal" way to travel to the moon is through sanctioned paths in [[DreamLand the Dream World.]] Though, at the time the game takes place, they have [[HyperspaceIsAScaryPlace the most powerful of dream world youkai guarding them]].

''Hidden Star in Four Seasons'' is a video game created by Team Shanghai Alice for Windows computers in 2017. It's the sixteenth installment in the ''Franchise/{{Touhou}}'' series.
----
!!This game provides examples of:
* DualBoss: Mai Teireida and Satono Nishida first appear as the midbosses for Stages 4 and 5, respectively, before coming together to serve as the Stage 5 bosses. Yes, the gimmick of the Stage 5 boss this time is being a DualBoss. They later reappear as the midbosses of the Extra Stage.
* ItsPersonal: Even if the heroines don't do anything, the incident will eventually resolve itself--but the humiliation the FinalBoss visited on the heroines will not be forgiven, and so the Extra Stage of the game is the second invasion of Ushirodo-no-Kuni, with the intention of challenging Okina to a rematch and ''kicking her ass''. To drive the point further, the Extra Difficulty description [[ThisMeansWar declares this to be the heroines' counterattack]] ([[IdiosyncraticDifficultyLevels instead of the usual warning to not try this thing out]]), and the stage header that traditionally reads "''Extra Stage''" instead says '''[[RoaringRampageOfRevenge Revenging Stage]]'''.
* PortalCrossroadWorld: We're introduced to the Ushirodo-no-Kuni (The Land of the Rear Door), filled with many doors that go to every possible place in Gensokyo, it's the setting for the latter half of the game.
* StrongAsTheyNeedToBe: Canonically, [[HopelessBossFight the heroines are unable to overcome Okina's final spellcard]] and [[ScrewThisImOutOfHere retreat]], since they were [[HoistByHisOwnPetard attempting to defeat Okina]] with powers ''[[SuperEmpowering granted]]'' by [[PhysicalGod Okina]], [[DefiedTrope only to have the tables turned on them.]] It's not until they [[EleventhHourSuperpower harness the "fifth season"]] that they actually are able to defeat Okina, and even then, for Cirno, it's theorized that [[GodWasMyCopilot she received help from another god who is enemies with Okina.]]

* HoldTheLine: Every single battle in Extra Stages as Komachi or Eiki are this. The enemy is invulnerable for a set amount of time and you must survive until their time is up, at which they often screw up on purpose.
* ViciousCycle: The events of this game happen every sixty years. But there is no real danger save for confused people picking random fights with each other, which is just another day in Gensokyo, and the incident resolves itself eventually.

''Subterranean Animism'' is a video game created by Team Shanghai Alice for Windows computers in 2008. It's the eleventh installment in the ''Franchise/{{Touhou}}'' series.
----
!!This game provides examples of:
* BeneathTheEarth: This game introduces a society of "hated" youkai living underground; surface youkai are forbidden from entering their realm due to an ancient treaty, but the opposite is not true. This realm includes the former site of Hell - it was relocated due to overcrowding, but some of the workers and evil spirits are still around.
* BossWarningSiren: Utsuho Reiuji, the [[ILoveNuclearPower nuclear-powered]] [[CreepyCrows Hell raven girl]] (and final boss) of the game, has the distinction of prefixing each of her spell cards with klaxons while the text "'''CAUTION!!'''" flares on-screen.
* MissionControl: Various youkai provide this to Reimu and Marisa, leading to different ammo/bombs, different special skills for Reimu, different dialogs and endings, and different ways of getting horribly mauled by Satori.

''Unidentified Fantastic Object'' is a video game created by Team Shanghai Alice for Windows computers in 2009. It's the twelfth installment in the ''Franchise/{{Touhou}}'' series.
----
!!This game provides examples of:
* GameBreakingBug: Reaching 1 billion points would up and crash the game. A patch was released to fix this 12 days after release.
* HeartbeatSoundtrack: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FrIbeivp_fs Stage 6 theme]] has this. Probably counts as a MythologyGag to the PC-98 games, since ZUN wanted to do the ''Mystic Square'' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0lt3xlTwT3U stage 6 theme]] with [[http://en.touhouwiki.net/wiki/Mystic_Square:_Music heartbeat sounds.]]
* RecurringRiff: Stage 6 theme ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FrIbeivp_fs Fires of Hokkai]]'' is based on ''Mystic Square'' Stage 6 theme ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0lt3xlTwT3U World's End]]''.

''Ten Desires'' is a video game created by Team Shanghai Alice for Windows computers in 2011. It's the thirteenth installment in the ''Franchise/{{Touhou}}'' series.
----
!!This game provides examples of:
* BreakingTheFourthWall: Kogasa states that she keeps losing to Yoshika [[GameplayAndStorySegregation because she always times out]].
* CreepyCemetery: It's revealed that Myouren Temple has a very vast cemetery in its backyard. Our heroes fight the Jiangshi Yoshika and her very oppressive poisonous kunai danmaku over it. Then it's revealed that the Buddhist monks deliberately built the cemetery over a different mausoleum to prevent their rival Taoist liches from resurrecting themselves.
* GameBreakingBug: The game would crash if you are not using a bomb, a valuable resource, when the Survival Card of the Extra Boss ends. This is the ''second last'' attack in the entire game. Even worse, that makes it [[UnwinnableByMistake impossible to capture]] in Spellcard mode because you aren't ''given'' any bombs to start with. Be grateful the patch for that only took 4 days after release.

''Double Dealing Character'' is a video game created by Team Shanghai Alice for Windows computers in 2013. It's the fourteenth installment in the ''Franchise/{{Touhou}}'' series.
----
!!This game provides examples of:
* EmphaticEnviroment: The fourth stage is strange in the sense that it beats in rhythm with the music.
* HatePlague: Something is causing various, normally non-violent youkai to become aggressive. It seems to be affecting player characters too; Marisa and Sakuya become AxCrazy if you play through the story with their [[EvilWeapon currently cursed weapons]].
* RecurringRiff: Many stages and bosses repeat the main verse or have slight variations of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yn3GPjhtYJ8 Kid's Festival ~ Innocent Treasures]].

''Legacy of Lunatic Kingdom'' is a video game created by Team Shanghai Alice for Windows computers in 2015. It's the fifteenth installment in the ''Franchise/{{Touhou}}'' series.
----
!!This game provides examples of:
* DevelopersForesight: [[FinalBoss Junko]] has two sets of dialogue if you played on either [[VideoGameLives Legacy Mode]] or [[FinalDeath Point]][[CheckPoint device Mode]], wherein she berates you for being flawed (i.e., dying multiple times) in the former, and is surprised as to how you made it this far without making mistakes (since Pointdevice uses the Chapter Finishes as [[CheckPoint checkpoints]] if you die) for the latter. In an aversion to GameplayAndStorySegregation, she'll use the Pointdevice dialogue on Legacy if you [[SelfImposedChallenge happen to get to her]] [[NoCasualtiesRun without dying once]].
* DualBoss: During the BonusBoss fight against [[spoiler:Hecatia Lapizlazuli], normally she takes turns attacking you with [[spoiler:Junko]], the game's FinalBoss. However, for the finale, they attack together.
* HyperspaceLanes: This game reveals that the "normal" way to travel to the moon is through sanctioned paths in [[DreamLand the Dream World.]] Though, at the time the game takes place, they have [[HyperspaceIsAScaryPlace the most powerful of dream world youkai guarding them]].

''Hidden Star in Four Seasons'' is a video game created by Team Shanghai Alice for Windows computers in 2017. It's the sixteenth installment in the ''Franchise/{{Touhou}}'' series.
----
!!This game provides examples of:
* DualBoss: Mai Teireida and Satono Nishida first appear as the midbosses for Stages 4 and 5, respectively, before coming together to serve as the Stage 5 bosses. Yes, the gimmick of the Stage 5 boss this time is being a DualBoss. They later reappear as the midbosses of the Extra Stage.
* ItsPersonal: Even if the heroines don't do anything, the incident will eventually resolve itself--but the humiliation the FinalBoss visited on the heroines will not be forgiven, and so the Extra Stage of the game is the second invasion of Ushirodo-no-Kuni, with the intention of challenging Okina to a rematch and ''kicking her ass''. To drive the point further, the Extra Difficulty description [[ThisMeansWar declares this to be the heroines' counterattack]] ([[IdiosyncraticDifficultyLevels instead of the usual warning to not try this thing out]]), and the stage header that traditionally reads "''Extra Stage''" instead says '''[[RoaringRampageOfRevenge Revenging Stage]]'''.
* PortalCrossroadWorld: We're introduced to the Ushirodo-no-Kuni (The Land of the Rear Door), filled with many doors that go to every possible place in Gensokyo, it's the setting for the latter half of the game.
* StrongAsTheyNeedToBe: Canonically, [[HopelessBossFight the heroines are unable to overcome Okina's final spellcard]] and [[ScrewThisImOutOfHere retreat]], since they were [[HoistByHisOwnPetard attempting to defeat Okina]] with powers ''[[SuperEmpowering granted]]'' by [[PhysicalGod Okina]], [[DefiedTrope only to have the tables turned on them.]] It's not until they [[EleventhHourSuperpower harness the "fifth season"]] that they actually are able to defeat Okina, and even then, for Cirno, it's theorized that [[GodWasMyCopilot she received help from another god who is enemies with Okina.]]
