A smash attack is an attack performed by "smashing" (quickly tilting) the control stick and pressing the A button at the same time. This class of attacks includes forward smash, up smash and down smash. Smash attacks generally have the highest knockback of the moves in a character's arsenal, with the forward smash usually being the most powerful. In Melee, it can be charged by holding the A button down, then releasing when you want the attack to unleash. A smash attack can be charged for exactly 120 frames, or 2 seconds.

In Melee's multiplayer modes, smashes can also be performed by pressing the C-stick in any direction. Holding the Z button while pressing the C-stick results in charging the smash. Some forward smashes can be angled in the same way forward tilts can.

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, one can play the game with 4 different controller setups. While the Wiimote, the Wiimote and the Nunchuk, GameCube Controller, and the Classic Controller all have control sticks to perform Smash attacks the standard way, when using the Wii Controller on its side, one must press the direction they are attacking and press both the 1 and 2 buttons at the same time.
