Template:Infobox Final Smash SSB4 Shin Shoryuken (真・昇龍拳, True Rising Dragon Fist) is Ryu's Final Smash. The move begins with Ryu striking the opponent with a uppercut, and then perform a powerful 2-hit Shoryuken with the closer hand. This move must be closer to peform. But if he is far away from him/her, then he will peform Shinku Hadoken (真空波動拳 , Vacuum Surge Fist) instead, which does multiple hits.
Trophy Description
Use this attack when Ryu is far away from an enemy to unleash a Shinku Hadoken that penetrates through the stage. But if you use it when Ryu is close to an enemy, he’ll unleash a Shin Shoryuken uppercut attack. When it hits, Ryu will follow up with his other fist and launch the opponent up, up, and away!

Origin
The Shinku Hadoken first appeared in Super Street Fighter II Turbo as his trademark Super Combo (it's name wasn't originally presented onscreen until Street Fighter Alpha) that later appeared in several games ever since its debut, and the Shin Shoryuken was introduced in Street Fighter Alpha 3 as a Level 3 Super Combo, which also appeared in several games since its debut. This move was first taught by his master Gouken.
The screen that shows up in the background on the final strike of Shin Shoryuken is the KO screen from Street Fighter IV, which would show up whenever the opponent lost all their health at the end of a round if attacked by a Super/Ultra Combo.
Finally, the fact that Ryu has two Final Smashes is a reference to the Ultra Combo Double mechanic introduced in Ultra Street Fighter IV where the player, instead of sticking with one Ultra Combo or the other, can use both at the cost of reduced damage on each one. In Ryu's case this would be the Metsu Hadouken and the Metsu Shoryuken.
