Side Special Move

The Side Special Move (also commonly called Forward B, Side B, and Smash B in iterations prior to Super Smash Bros. Brawl) is a Special Move introduced in Super Smash Bros. Melee. It is performed by pressing the Special Move Button while holding "left" or "right" on the control stick (or control pad on the Wii Remote). Most Side Special Moves cause the character to rush forward to cover long distances between them and a foe or horizontally recover. Some Side Special Moves are different depending on whether or not the control stick (or pad) is "smashed" or simply tilted to the side. An example would be Samus's missiles, where a "tilt" yields a weak homing missile, and a "smash" yields a stronger, faster missile.
