**Furthermore, the first hit of Link's forward smash in ''Ultimate'' is capable of launching a unique sword beam projectile when Link is at 0%. This projectile travels quickly over a long distance, and its size and damage output are greatly increased by charging the attack. It also substantially increases the damage output of the attack when used at close range. | **Furthermore, the first hit of Link's forward smash in ''Ultimate'' is capable of launching a unique sword beam projectile when Link is at 0%.

*[[Mega Man]], [[Olimar]], and [[Villager]]'s forward smashes, as well as Link's aforementioned ''Ultimate'' sword beam, are the only four forward smashes which are [[projectile]]s. Of those two, Mega Man and Link's projectiles are the only projectiles to increase in hitbox size as the attack is charged. Villager's is one of the only projectiles that fall downwards instead of traveling forwards. [[Mii Gunner]]'s forward smash may appear to be a projectile, but is technically not, as its shots do not act independently of the Mii Gunner. | *[[Mega Man]], [[Olimar]], and [[Villager]]'s forward smashes, as well as Link's aforementioned ''Ultimate'' sword beam, are the only four forward smashes which are [[projectile]]s.

*[[Ness]]'s forward smash is able to [[reflect]] projectiles. This property is shared with [[Lucas]]'s very similar forward smash, as well. These two, along with Min Min's [[up smash]], are the only non-[[special attack]]s with this property. | *[[Ness]]'s forward smash is able to [[reflect]] projectiles.

**In ''Melee'' and ''Brawl'', it also has a very long duration and in the former game, it has fast startup. While the move's long duration was significantly toned down in ''Smash 4'' and ''Ultimate'', its strong power remained intact while also still having relatively low ending lag. | **In ''Melee'' and ''Brawl'', it also has a very long duration and in the former game, it has fast startup.
