The '''Infinite Dimensional Cape''' is a technique in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' where [[Meta Knight (SSBB)|Meta Knight]] is able to exploit his [[Dimensional Cape]] to remain impervious for extended periods of time. When using this move, Meta Knight is invisible as long as this technique is repeatedly done, and cannot be harmed or attacked, as all attacks simply pass through his [[hitbox]] undetected. By repeatedly and ''very'' quickly using the upward smash attack while simultaneously holding down on the control stick, Meta Knight can remain in flux for as long as the technique can be properly maintained, which can be quite difficult. He can also move left and right, but must remain primarily on the ground to sustain the IDC.

The [[GameCube controller|GameCube]] and [[Classic Controller|Classic]] controllers are able to execute the maneuver with standard [[Controls|controls]] by using the C-stick or right analog stick for upward attacks. It is also possible with the [[Nunchuk]] by converting a button into an upward smash, or by using the [[shake smash]]. It is much easier to perform using a button instead of a joystick. The [[Wii remote]] cannot by itself be used to perform the IDC, as the upward smash attack can only be assigned to the 'up' direction, and as the technique would require pressing two opposing directions on the pad ('up' ''and'' 'down') at the same time; a hardware impossibility.
