History VideoGame / SmashRemix

** Multiple stages and songs fall into this category too, most blatantly the Mementos stage. Its game of origin ''VideoGame/Persona5'' was first released on the Platform/PlayStation3 in ''2016'', long after the Nintendo 64 had entered RetroGaming territory.[[note]]For reference, ''VideoGame/Persona1'' was released in 1996 while the development of ''VideoGame/Persona2InnocentSin'' would've been concurrent with ''Smash 64'', and was released five months later.[[/note]]

* AssetActor: The need for this is removed by giving {{Home Stage}}s for Ness and Captain Falcon, as well as the new characters, so they're fought there in [=Remix 1P=] and All-Star Mode. The only exception is Mad Piano, who's not given [[VideoGame/SuperMario64 Big Boo's Haunt]] and instead is fought on [[VideoGame/BanjoKazooie Mad Monster Mansion]].

** [[VideoGame/SuperMario64 Mad Piano]] -- Newcomer to the series [[note]]Shares a slot with Luigi[[/note]]

* StockSoundEffect: Dragon King's limited voice clips seem to be stock vocal sounds.

** The 1.5.0 update has a remix of "Happy Together" by Music/TheTurtles, the same song used in the original game's American commercial.

* ShoutOut: Peppy's Classic Mode pose mimics the album art for Music/MartyRobbins' ''Music/GunfighterBalladsAndTrailSongs''.

* PracticalTaunt: All characters can be set to summon a specific or random item by taunting.

** With the Sheik update adding unique congratulations screens for the newcomers (except for the bosses and Fighting Polygons sharing a generic "You are Proud" screen), [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime Beast Ganon, Navi]], [[VideoGame/DrMario the viruses]], [[VideoGame/MischiefMakers Professor Theo, the friendly Clancers]], [[VideoGame/Mother3 Lucas' family]] (sans Hinawa), [[VideoGame/GanbareGoemon Impact]], and [[VideoGame/StarFox1 Polygon Andross]] appear as cameos.

* EvilKnockoff: In addition to the twelve variants of Fighting Polygons already in the game, updates starting from 1.3.0 add Fighting Polygons for some of the newcomers. The 1.5.0 update gave everyone Polygons.

* CallForward: There are a few allusions to the Subspace Emmisary, such as Samus and Pikachu trying to jump Mewtwo in Marth's reveal trailer. Likewise, King Dedede's trailer featured Kirby, Luigi, and Ness who Dedede would equip with certain protections during Subspace Emissary. In yet another Subspace allusion, Goemon's trailer shows the villains (Wario, Bowser, and Ganondorf) sharing a table.

* EvilKnockoff: In addition to the twelve variants of Fighting Polygons already in the game, updates starting from 1.3.0 add Fighting Polygons for some of the newcomers. Specifically, Falco, Ganondorf, Dr. Mario, Wario, Lucas, Bowser, Wolf, Sonic, Sheik, and Marina.

''Smash Remix'' is a GameMod of the original ''VideoGame/{{Super Smash Bros|64}}'' for the UsefulNotes/Nintendo64 which serves to add enough content to put it on par with its newer, more cram-packed installments.

** [[UsefulNotes/GameAndWatch Flat Zone and Flat Zone 2]] return from the original games. UsefulNotes/GameBoy Land is a similar stage inside a handheld console, which morphs into scenes of several Game Boy games.

** The [[UsefulNotes/Nintendo64 N64]] stage is a void with the Nintendo 64 logo and a few small platforms, a nod to the 64DD boot-up screen.

** Multiple stages and songs fall into this category too, most blatantly the Mementos stage. Its game of origin ''VideoGame/Persona5'' was first released on the UsefulNotes/PlayStation3 in ''2016'', long after the Nintendo 64 had entered RetroGaming territory.[[note]]For reference, ''VideoGame/Persona1'' was released in 1996 while the development of ''VideoGame/Persona2InnocentSin'' would've been concurrent with ''Smash 64'', and was released five months later.[[/note]]

** Sonic goes the extra mile by including model swaps of Classic Sonic. With this, the sound effects from ''VideoGame/SonicAdventure'' are replaced by sound effects from the UsefulNotes/SegaGenesis games and Sonic reverts to a HeroicMime. His Spring Jump also changes models.

* DevelopersForesight: In the Gym Leader Castle stage, as well as the Pokémon Stadium and Pokémon Stadium 2 stages, the announcer from ''VideoGame/PokemonStadium'' will give battle commentary. He will also specifically call out Poké Ball summons as well as special moves used by Pikachu, Jigglypuff, and Mewtwo.

* [[invoked]]DummiedOut: {{Averted|Trope}} with the debug stages from the original game, which have now been made into normal stages. The unused victory fanfare has now been repurposed as the victory theme for the Fighting Polygons.

* MovesetClone: A number of characters are this, especially in the mod's early days. Peppy and Slippy are new clones that share slots with Fox and Falco respectively.
** Peppy's blaster is a charge special that can fire multiple shots depending on how long he charges it. Unlike the other ''Star Fox'' characters, he lacks a reflector down special, instead using a flashbang grenade. Being older than Fox, some of his animations aren't as agile, such as a shoulder tackle for a dash attack instead of a jumping kick.
** Slippy can curve a bit while flying with his up special, and borrows some of Wario's regular attacks and Luigi's animations to emphasize his silly and clumsy nature. His reflector also slows down reflected projectiles.

* UnwinnableByDesign: {{Downplayed|Trope}}. 1.1.0 introduces the ability for characters to play on other characters' bonus stages, after users on the official Discord server experimented with doing so via cheat codes as a SelfImposedChallenge[[invoked]]. However, except for King Dedede, all characters have at least one stage that's impossible for them to complete. In those cases, the game doesn't record your time, but does still keep track of how far you were able to get.

* SecretCharacter:. The four secret characters in the original -- Luigi, Captain Falcon, Ness, and Jigglypuff -- have been made available from the start. However, there is ''one'' hidden away as an EasterEgg. [[spoiler:If anything is entered in the final Player Tag slot, Master Hand [[PromotedToPlayable becomes selectable]] with no fanfare indicating it from the game. He's in Link's D-Pad Up variant slot. There's no real way to fix the [[GameBreakingBug instabilities]] he comes with, but the easter egg's there for those who understand the risks and want to use him anyway.]]

** Except for Master Hand[[note]]who at the moment is too prone to a myriad of {{Game Breaking Bug}}s if appearing outside of his intended fight in the 1P Game[[/note]], every 1P-only opponent from the original game -- Metal Mario, Giant Donkey Kong, and the Fighting Polygon Team -- can now be selected using the D-pad when choosing the character they're a variant of. Their gameplay has not been altered, but they have been given the missing assets that lacking made them crash if using them in the original via cheat device.

* SecretCharacter: {{Averted|Trope}}. The four secret characters in the original -- Luigi, Captain Falcon, Ness, and Jigglypuff -- have been made available from the start.

** Sonic goes the extra mile by including model swaps of Classic Sonic. With this, the sound effects from ''VideoGame/SonicAdventure'' are replaced by sound effects from the UsefulNotes/SegaGenesis games and Sonic reverts to a HeroicMime.

* LateArrivalSpoiler: {{Defied}} regarding ''Ocarina of Time'''s "Sheik is Zelda" reveal that ''Melee'' and ''Brawl'' spoiled. Princess Zelda is not playable in this mod, and Sheik's character bio keep's her identity secret by using they/them pronouns.

** Peppy's blaster is a charge special that can fire multiple shots depending on how long he charges it. Unlike the other ''Star Fox'' characters, he lacks a reflector down special, instead using a stun grenade.
** Slippy can curve a bit while flying with his up special, and borrows some of Wario's regular attacks and Luigi's animations to emphasize his silly and clumsy nature.

* SequelDifficultySpike: {{Downplayed}}, but Friendly Fire is turned on in the Remix 1P mode compared to the original 1P Game having Friendly Fire turned off.

** With the Sheik update adding unique congratulations screens for the newcomers (except for the bosses and Fighting Polygons sharing a generic "You are Proud" screen), [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime Beast Ganon, Navi]], [[VideoGame/DrMario the viruses]], [[VideoGame/MischiefMakers Professor Theo, some Clancers]], and [[VideoGame/Mother3 Lucas' family]] (sans Hinawa) appear as cameos.

** Slippy can turn a bit while flying with his up special, and borrows some of Wario's regular attacks and Luigi's animations to emphasize his silly and clumsy nature.
