Super Smash Bros. Melee is the second game in the Super Smash Bros. series, a fighting game series focused on major Nintendo characters battling it out. Link returns as a playable from the original game, Super Smash Bros., and new for the game is Princess Zelda, who can also transform into Sheik. The player can also unlock Young Link (Link as portrayed in the beginning of Ocarina of Time and throughout The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask) and Ganondorf.

The game also has two The Legend of Zelda-related stages to fight on. The first is Great Bay from Majora's Mask, with cameo appearances from Tingle, the moon and the Four Giants. The other stage is "Hyrule Temple", a stage seemingly based on the various temples and dungeons in the Zelda games, but directly based off of the Hyrule Temple from Zelda II: The Adventure of Link. Great Bay plays the trademark The Legend of Zelda theme music during gameplay and can play Saria's Song if the L or R buttons are held down by all human players while selecting the stage. Hyrule Temple's music is the Palace music from Zelda II: The Adventure of Link. When playing in "Adventure Mode", there is also a dungeon-like Zelda stage named the Underground Maze, where the player needs to find the Triforce.

Heart Containers return from Super Smash Bros. as in-game healing items, and the Bunny Hood also appears. When worn, it increases the player's speed and agility.

The game also has "trophies", 3D models of various Nintendo characters and items with a small description that can be unlocked as interesting bonuses. The following are the Zelda-related trophies:
