Giga Bowser is the final boss of Adventure mode in Super Smash Bros. Melee. He is a gargantuan version of Bowser and could only be fought after completing Adventure mode in normal or higher difficulty within 18 minutes and without using any continues. Additionally, he was a villain in the final Event Match, with Mewtwo and Ganondorf (of the Pokémon and The Legend of Zelda series, respectively) fighting alongside him. Giga Bowser is only playable using an Action Replay.
In addition to being much larger than the original king of the koopas, Giga Bowser looks far more evil, with a slightly smaller head, spikier, scaled shell, surprisingly more muscular physique, and a new curve to his lengthened horns. Giga Bowser is truly an intimidating sight to behold, and rightfully so; he is far more difficult than his smaller counterpart.
Giga Bowser possessed the same moveset as Bowser, but several moves had an 'elemental' effect; for example, his A+Down move could freeze opponents, and his forward Smash was explosive.
Giga Bowser is officially considered to be a Super Smash Bros. character, not a Mario character. In the game, his icon is not a mushroom (as is the case with Mario characters), but a SSB symbol (as is the case with SSB characters). Therefore, it is unlikely that he will be appearing in any games other than entries in the SSB franchise. However, on the Super Smash Bros. Brawl DOJO!!, The final smash of Bowser's has a mushroom icon, but thyis is because it is a move of Bowser's.
Giga Bowser returns in Super Smash Bros. Brawl as Bowser's Final Smash. The attack's name is Giga Bowser Transformation. He still takes damage from hits but won't flinch, making him impossible to KO. Because of his large size, he is able to easily attack and KO an opponent. However, the duration of this move is very short, and Bowser can only stay as Giga Bowser for a very limited time, unless a glitch that lets you play as Giga Bowser until a self-destruct on yourself happens.
Trophy Information

| Type | Image | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Giga Bowser | File:Trophy82.PNG | An even more imposing figure than the original King of the Koopas. Giga Bowser is roughly twice the size of his scaly, fire-breathing, spike-studded Super Smash Bros. Melee counterpart. Predictably, this monstrous creature's offensive and defensive powers are a grade higher than those of regular Bowser. Good luck defeating this colossus! |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl
| Type | Image | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Giga Bowser | File:TrGiga bowser.jpg | Bowser, transformed into the terrible and brutal form first seen in Super Smash Bros. Melee. While in this form, he's invulnerable--he takes no damage and cannot be budged. His appearance is so fierce, it's as if he doesn't even belong in the Smash Bros. universe. He cannot maintain this form for long, so dealing out damage efficiently is key. |
