Other appearances

Super Smash Bros. Melee

Roy makes an appearance in the second game of fighting crossover series Smash Bros., Super Smash Bros. Melee. He appears as a "clone" character of Marth, meaning they share many similar attacks and similar poses. Roy's attacks are most powerful the closer the foe is to Roy, and some of Roy's attacks consist of fire upon contact. However, he is often viewed upon as an inferior version of Marth competitively.

When SSBM was being translated for Western audiences, the developers first considered removing Roy and Marth, being unfamiliar characters to American audiences due to no actual other FE line games being released in other countries. However the decision was made to keep Roy and Marth, with the inclusion of Japanese voice acting for both regardless if the language chosen is English. Due to this, fans began to show interest for the Fire Emblem series and thus began the series' overseas appearances.

In game's sequel, Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Roy was excluded while Marth made a reappearance, likely due to Roy fading away from the Fire Emblem series at the time. At the same time, Ike, who had recently appeared in Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn was included in the game. It is a popular fan joke that Roy was "replaced" by Ike, and that the two have a fierce rivalry.

Etymology

The name Roy means "red" in Irish and Caelic. It also has a old French variation ("Roi") which means "King". It also means "regal one".
