"GUIDES 3D STREET FIGHTER" assumes relational directions for things like blocking and performing special moves, meaning moves are dependent on your physical relation to your opponent. Holding Back (away from your opponent) or Down-Back (down and away) when your opponent attacks causes you to block. Special moves are also based on relational directions and required using combination in tandem with an attack button. Ryu's Fireball, a classic Street Fighter move, is performed by starting in Down and then rolling the joystick into the Forward position, then hitting any punch.
