The '''''Perfect Dark'' universe''' ({{ja|パーフェクトダーク|Pāfekuto Dāku}}, ''Perfect Dark'') refers to the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series' collection of properties that hail from the ''Perfect Dark'' series of first-person shooter games developed by [[Rare]]. Due to Rare's sale to Microsoft and resulting lack of presence on Nintendo platforms afterwards, ''Perfect Dark'' only received limited representation in ''Smash''.
==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''==
The [[Cloaking Device]] [[item]] is based on ''Perfect Dark''. Additionally, the [[Motion-Sensor Bomb]] in the Japanese release of ''Melee'' is based directly on its ''Perfect Dark'' appearance. The international releases of ''Melee'' redesigned the item to resemble its appearance from an earlier Rare game, ''{{iw|wikipedia|GoldenEye 007|1997 video game}}'', which was the game ''Perfect Dark'' had been based on in terms of gameplay and engine. Both items' references to Rare properties are minimized, with their games of origin listed as "TOP SECRET" in the Western releases, and the references to ''Perfect Dark'' in the trophy description removed entirely in the American version. All versions still list the game in the credits sequence, however.
Later ''Smash'' games redesigned the Motion-Sensor Bomb and treat it as an original {{uv|Super Smash Bros.}} series property. The Cloaking Device was removed entirely, although invisibility is still present in certain modes such as [[Special Smash]] or by using a [[Boo]] in [[Smash Tour]].
