"Welcome to the new Nintendo Soccer Tournament!" Master Hand announced, floating in a large, red announcing booth, looking to his left, right, and eventually his front to see the huge amount of people in the audience cheering loudly and clapping, "Here, we have all of the teams from the Super Smash Brothers and their respective friends and foes from their universes competing in the most intense soccer tournament yet! Please, allow the teams themselves to introduce you!"
The audience clapped loudly and cheered as all of the twelve teams walked out from the soccer lockers and came onto the soccer field.
"Here are the rules for you fellow newcomers and fellow audience members," Master Hand added, suddenly pulling a chart and pointing at it, "All teams must have five players, one of them being the goalie. You must win the game by three minutes, and whoever wins will progress forwards to the Elimination Round, where the victorious team will go up against the championship team and compete for the championship! Teams may or may not use items for their wishes, and overall, do the best you can to win, team!" With that, he snapped his fingers, and the teams and audience members all turned around to face the west, to see a large projectile screen rising from the top of the stadium. "And there are the teams and their members, ladies and gentlemen!"
Everyone, including the twelve teams, looked carefully at the projectile screen, which projected the twelve teams and their players, as well as goalies.

"And so," Master Hand suddenly stated again, before going up high in the air and loudly announcing with a booming voice, "LET THE NINTENDO SOCCER TOURNAMENT BEGIN!!!!!!!"
The audiences cheered, and all of the teams (except Team Bowser, who only chuckled/laughed) shook hands and wished each other luck as they all ran back into the soccer lockers, to await who they will go up against, and where there will compete in soccer.
