In "Mother 3," you can perform a combo attack when physically attacking an enemy in battle. Each battle theme has a specific beat, and this beat is the key to performing combo attacks. By pressing the "A" button in time with the battle theme's beat, you can perform additional hits, and will do so for as long as you keep pace with the battle theme's beat. Each additional combo hit will inflict additional damage, and you can extend a combo to 16 hits.
