{{SSB|Link}}'s Spin Attack has nearly identical [[knockback]] and damage whether used on the ground and in the air, with extremely similar animation; however, the grounded version releases a wide, orange-tinted ring of "magic" circling him (similar to charging up a Spin Attack in ''Ocarina of Time'' or ''Majora's Mask''), while the aerial version lacks this ring. Both versions deal substantial knockback, making them good combo finishers. As a [[recovery]] move, though, it is lacking in both horizontal and vertical range; while, as an attack, it has a strictly horizontal [[hitbox]], leaving Link vulnerable from above and below.

The Spin Attack returns as Link and newcomer {{SSBM|Young Link}}'s up special moves. While fundamentally the same as in ''Smash 64'', the grounded version no longer produces a wide ring on use, and the user spins much more rapidly before coming to a braking stop. | The Spin Attack returns as Link and newcomer {{SSBM|Young Link}}'s up special moves.
