Nintendo Switch PRO Controller

The controls of Smash Bros. are quite different from most other fighting games. Whereas many games utilize motions such as quarter-circle movements or long strings of button inputs, Smash tends to be more simplistic. Because of this, you'll be able to understand how to trigger most moves for all Fighter in the game. There are two main attack buttons: the Attack button, and the Special button. To input a move, you press a button and a direction (or lack thereof) and a move will be performed. Each one corresponds to a different move, which makes things very user-friendly, as all Fighters use the same control scheme.
