!! ''Super Smash Wars'' contains examples of:

* AdaptationalHeroism: In his home series, Ganondorf has only ever been an unrepentant villain, even in his [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTheWindWaker most sympathetic appearance]]. As Ganakin Skywaker, he still has some good left in him and ultimately finds that RedemptionEqualsDeath.
* AdaptationalVillainy:
** Several non-villainous characters from ''Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda'', such as Grog, Linebeck, and the Happy Mask Salesman, are shown to be working for the Empire.
** [[Franchise/{{Metroid}} Samus Aran]] works with the villains here due to being cast as Boba Fett.
** [[VideoGame/MetalGearSolid Solid Snake]] appears to be another bounty hunter hired by the Empire in ''The Empire Smashes Back''.
** As Bazine Fital, [[VideoGame/WiiFit the Wii Fit Trainer]] is a spy working for the First Level in ''The Triforce Awakens'' Part 1.
* ButtMonkey: Sonic Calrissian, in ''The Empire Smashes Back'', mostly serves as Chewie Kong's punching bag. Justified as he did betray them to Lord Ganondarth and let Han Brolo be turned into a trophy. It continues through the first half of ''Return of the Hero'' until he finally gets his moment that subverts the trope in the second half.
* ChekhovsGun: Link avoids a nasty fall in ''The Empire Smashes Back'' thanks to the hookshot he got in ''A Link To The Hope''.
* CirclingBirdies: Link gets several Cuccos flying around his head after falling out of bed in ''Super Smash Wars''.
* CoolSword: The Master Saber, which is the Master Sword as a Lightsaber, resulting in one of the coolest fictional swords ever conceived.
* CompositeCharacter: Pretty much every single character, so here are just a few notable examples:
** Emperor Mew-Jora himself is triple mash-up, of Emperor Palpatine, Mewtwo, and Majora's Mask. [[spoiler:His OneWingedAngel form, Mew-Jora's Wrath, combines Mega Mewtwo X, Mega Mewtwo Y, and Majora's Wrath.]]
** Phantom Lord Ganondarth looks like the ''Wind Waker'' version of Phantom Ganon crossed with Darth Vader, but has the personality, overall role, and [[spoiler:unmasked face]] of Ganondorf himself.
** Princess Pleia is Princess Peach as Princess Leia. In ''Return of the Hero'', Pleia also disguises herself as Sniper Joe (as Boushh). [[spoiler:Like the Emperor, she's actually a triple mash-up, even without the Sniper Joe disguise: it is later revealed in ''Return of the Hero'' that Pleia is secretly Princess Zelda in disguise.]]
** Link Skywaker is a mashup of Luke Skywalker and Link. For the original trilogy, that Link is [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTheWindWaker the Hero of Winds]]; in the sequel trilogy, Link is instead modeled after [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime the adult Hero of Time]]. Additionally, ''Return of the Hero'' reveals that Dark Link (based upon Toon Link's ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros'' PaletteSwap, although the setting is based upon Dark Link's appearance in ''VideoGame/ZeldaIITheAdventureOfLink'') is Link Skywaker's SuperPoweredEvilSide rather than a separate entity.
** Sonic Calrissian is a mashup of Sonic the Hedgehog and Lando Calrissian. Much like the Pleia/Sniper Joe example above, Sonic also disguises himself as [[Franchise/{{Kirby}} Meta Knight]] in ''Return of the Hero''.
** Shylo Ren is a mashup of a Shy Guy and Kylo Ren. When unmasked, he is revealed to be Baby Brolo, a mashup of Baby Mario and Ben Solo.
* {{Crossover}}: Between ''Franchise/StarWars'' and ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros''.
* DeconstructiveParody: Remember the [[VideoGame/SuperMarioGalaxy Galaxy selection screen?]] Have fun looking at it, repurposed as ''the display for a planetary destroyer''.
* EasterEgg: Several Luigi sprites are hidden throughout ''The Triforce Awakens'' Part 2.
* TheForce: Which, in ''Super Smash Wars'', obviously goes by the name of [[Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda Triforce.]]
* HelloInsertNameHere: This is the manner in which VN-2187 was renamed Vinn by Pit Dameron.
* HeroicMime: Link Skywaker keeps his status as demanded by his first name; as for his second name, any dialogue is replaced by either pantomime or as a response through captions/textboxes.
* MoodWhiplash:
** The famous "puzzle solved jingle" from ''Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda'' can be heard ''right after'' the words [[LukeIAmYourFather "I am your father"]] appear on screen.
** And the ensuing BigNo is represented by the choosing of an option "Not really" from the menu.
** ''The Triforce Awakens'' Part 2 plays Ping Pong with the mood due to the buildup of [[spoiler:Han Brolo's death at the hands of his son]] being interrupted by several ''VideoGame/SuperMarioMaker''-style commentary windows warning him to turn back being just the first of many within about 30 seconds.
* OneWingedAngel: [[spoiler:After being apparently defeated by Ganakin Skywaker, Emperor Mew-Jora assumes a much more physically-intimidating form known as Mew-Jora's Wrath.]]
* PunctuatedForEmphasis: ''A Link To The Hero'' begins with the humorous {{Content Warning|s}} "[[ReferenceOverdosed So. Many. References.]]"
* PunnyName: Many characters and locations are given punny portmanteau names. For example, planet Ach-To is renamed [[Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda Ach-To-Rock]] in ''The Triforce Awakens''.
* ReferenceOverdosed: ''[[ShoutOut Good God.]]'' Even as far as Creator/JamesFarr's other works are concerned, the ''Super Smash Wars'' series takes the cake, as the ''Franchise/StarWars'' characters are mashed up with people coming from all over the Nintendo spectrum, even including [[VideoGame/MetalGearSolid third]] [[Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog party]] [[VideoGame/MegaManClassic characters]] who appeared in ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros''.
* RobotHand: The Power Glove appears as Link Skywaker's robotic hand.
* SingleTear: Link Skywaker sheds one as he's forced to escape from [[DoomedHometown the destruction of his village.]]
* SparedByTheAdaptation: In contrast to the fate of the Tauntaun that Yoshi takes the role of, he's revived by a 1-Up mushroom.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Sometimes, names are not written consistently through the series. For example, the [=C-3PO=]/R.O.B. mashup character is named [=C-3PROB=] in ''Return of the Hero'' and [=C3P-R.O.B.=] in ''The Triforce Awakens'' Part 2.
* StockScream: The Wilhelm Scream features OnceAnEpisode in the ''Super Smash Wars'' series.
* TakeThat: As a joke at both Nintendo's and its fans' expense in ''The Empire Smashes Back''. Owlbi-Wan Kaepora's ghost asks Link [[FandomNod if he understood what Yodachu taught him]]. Link ''does'' [[TakeThat give him an annoyed look]], but then he chooses the correct option by [[TakeThatAudience scrolling between "yes" and "no" as slowly as any player should.]]
* TakenForGranite: Han Brolo is turned into a carbonite trophy, accomplished by the black arrow from the Subspace Emissary story mode of ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros Brawl''.
* ThatsNoMoon: ''A Link To The Hope'' has this trope, par of the course when it comes to a ''Franchise/StarWars'' parody. [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaMajorasMask Guess which moon they went with?]]
* {{Troll}}: Yodachu seems to enjoy toying with Link for his own amusement. His laughter is from the early ''{{Anime/Pokemon}}'' episodes.
* VisualPun: During the Battle of Endor equivalent, Sonic Calrissian's call sign is Gold Leader.[[note]][[DontExplainTheJoke Sonic himself has gone Super Sonic (and turned gold) for the battle.]][[/note]]
