Wind is also present in some stages of the [[Subspace Emissary]]. Headwinds make it more difficult to progress through a stage, as characters will be pushed backwards, while tailwinds force the character to progress much faster, but requires faster reactions. It's also present in the subsequent game's [[Smash Run]] in a similar vein, however, the wind will constantly change directions in random directions for a set amount of time. Strong winds can also appear as a hazard in [[Spirits (characters)|Spirit Battles]], and some Spirits will reduce or eliminate the wind's impact.

Only one source of wind can affect a fighter at a time. If multiple wind zones overlap a fighter, only the wind of the zone with the higher priority will push the fighter. Stage wind always takes priority over strong winds from Spirit Battles, and thus can serve as temporary refuges from strong wind, such as in the Whispy Woods and Fox Luigi Spirit Battles.
