In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Wario never blinks. He is the only playable character with visible eyes outside of ROB, who is a robot, and Olimar, whose eyes are always closed, that does not have a blinking animation.

The cages Petey Piranha holds in Super Smash Bros. Brawl have details on them that are too small to be seen during regular gameplay.
-The back of the top spike of the cages has a Chain Chomp decoration.
-The top of the inside of the cages has drawings of Bloopers and Bob-ombs.
-The bottom of the cages is decorated with vines and various Piranha Plant sprites from the Super Mario All-Stars version of Super Mario Bros. 3.
-Finally, the back of the bottom of the cages has a fully modeled human face that does not correspond to any character from Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

Top: the Sticker Album in Super Smash Bros. Brawl includes a badge from Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, shaped like a red triangle with a fist emblem. The game calls it the “Mega Rush” badge.
Bottom: however, this is incorrect. In Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, this design is used for the Power Plus badge instead. The actual Mega Rush badge can be seen below it in the list, and uses a different design with an orange octagon.
