"Min Min Arms Herself!"
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is a crossover Nintendo fighting game directed by Masahiro Sakurai and released on December 7th, 2018 internationally to critical acclaim. It is the fifth installment in the Super Smash Bros. series (sixth if both the Wii U and 3DS versions of Super Smash Bros. 4 are counted separately).
Min Min will be included as a downloadable fighter in the game on June 29th, 2020, being the first fighter from ARMS to become playable in the Super Smash Bros. series. She is classified as fighter #76.
- Spring Stadium will be added to the game as a downloadable stage alongside Min Min. The stage features several platforms that can be jumped upon for additional height, and a display that cycles through every ARMS fighter.
- Spring Man appears as a computer-controlled helper known as an Assist Trophy. He punches fighters using Toasters and uses Rush after hitting an opponent.
- Mii Fighters can wear outfits and hats based on Spring Man, Ribbon Girl, and Ninjara complete with their signature Toaster, Sparky, and Chakram ARMS, respectively.
- 18 ARMS music tracks will be added to the game as DLC, including two new remixes composed by the game's original composer, Atsuko Asahi.
- Fighters from ARMS appear as some of many collectable, stat-boosting Spirits. Known Spirits include Spring Man, Ribbon Girl, Ninjara, Master Mummy, Mechanica, Twintelle, Byte & Barq, Kid Cobra, Helix, Min Min and Max Brass.

Trivia
- Each of the Spirit battles are references to characters and elements in ARMS:
- Spring Man's Spirit battle has a Mii Brawler wearing a costume based on him in the Boxing Ring stage, possibly as reference to Spring Stadium.
- Min Min's Spirit is represented by [[1]]. She often uses Dragon Fang Shot, an attack that involves turning her arm into a dragon much like Min Min's ability to turn her ARM into a dragon when charged. The stage is set in New Pork City, possibly because it resembles a China-themed setting. The music that plays is Dragon Driftway from Mario Kart 8, a track with a China-themed aesthetic as well as a game that was also produced by Kosuke Yabuki.
- Twintelle's Spirit is represented by Bayonetta, who tends to use Smash attacks. Both Bayonetta and Twintelle use their hair in battle and can both slow down attacks. Bayonetta also starts the fight with a Drill which bares resemblance to Twintelle's default ARMS, the Parasol. The stage is set in New Donk City Hall, which bears resemblance to Cinema Deux.
- Mechanica's Spirit is represented by Wendy, another young girl who fights in a machine. She has super armor, similarly to how Mechanica's robot mech also has super armor when attacked. She is also giant, which may be because Mechanica is the tallest ARMS character when inside her mech.
- Kid Cobra's Spirit is represented by Min Min, donning an alternate costume that looks similar to Kid Cobra's color scheme. She has increased move speed when at high damage, which may be because of Kid Cobra having the quickest dash in the game when charged. She also starts the battle with a Drill, possibly due to Kid Cobra's default ARMS, Slamamander. The stage is set in Bayonetta, possibly due to it and Snake Park's similar aesthetic of a city at night.
- In an interview with Nintendo Dream, series director Masahiro Sakurai confirms that because the base roster was completed prior to the announcement of ARMS in January 2017, a playable fighter from ARMS wasn't able to make it into the base roster of Ultimate.[1] However, an unannounced character from ARMS was later announced as a downloadable fighter for the second Fighter’s Pass in a Nintendo Direct mini on March 26th, 2020 and formally revealed on June 22nd 2020.
- According to series director Masahiro Sakurai, Min Min was selected as the ARMS representative by special request of Kosuke Yabuki. However, even before his request, both Min Min and Ninjara were in consideration for the spot.
- Min Min is the only Super Smash Bros. Ultimate fighter to be represented as both a playable character and as an equippable Spirit.
- She is also the first fighter to have their series announced for inclusion in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate before the character itself.
- In Min Min's reveal trailer, she is initially shown with regular, human arms, marking the first time that any ARMS fighter is shown lacking their signature spiral-like ARMS, barring Mechanica.
- Ribbon Girl and Ninjara are the only Spirits in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate that were formerly only obtainable through summoning, but are now obtainable through Min Min's DLC Spirits board.
