Hadouken input

Super Smash Bros.

Hadouken is Ryu's standard special in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U. It can also be performed using the usual input used in the Street Fighter games. Using this input will create a bigger fireball with slightly more damage. He shares this move with Ken in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

Ryu can also input the Shakunetsu Hadoken using the input for Yoga Flame; back, down back, down, down forward, forward, attack/special. The red fireball is a multihit move that in the end does a bit more damage but, it has weak knockback and the first hit doesn't flinch. Ken gets the Nata Otoshi Geri instead which is a special roundhouse kick that allows him to cancel into an Inazuma Kick.
