It's not a perfect acronym. I didn't come up with it either, but for some reason the games have had the following shortened forms:

Super Smash Bros. -> SSB or SB64 Super Smash Bros. Melee -> SSBM OR SMMSH Super Smash Bros. Brawl -> SSBB OR SMBSH (pronounced sm-bush) Super Smash Bros. for 3DS / for Wii U -> SM4SH (the 4th Smash Bros game) Super Smash Bros. Ultimate -> SMUSH
