Link's [[Final Smash]] move is known as the [[Triforce Slash]].
  |text= On May 10, 2006, at an after-hours press conference during the [[E3 Media & Business Summit|E³]], Link became one of the first confirmed fighters in the [[Wii]] installment of the franchise, {{SSBB}}. Unlike the previous games of the series, Link appears as depicted in the GameCube {{TP}}, rather than {{OoT|-}}. The [[Master Sword]] he has in {{SSBB|-}} is much shorter than the one in {{TP|-}}. Link's [[Final Smash]] move is known as the [[Triforce Slash]].
