I thought I'd include a bit on how to beat Giga Bowser...I put in how I beat him with Falco(my main) but I think I'll leave the other characters to people who play them more than me since they probably have quicker methods.--[[User:Insane-Contrast|Insane-Contrast]] 12:46, May 17, 2007 (GMT)

I figured I'd put special attributes Giga Bowser has over his normal form.  Since certain moves were previously listed to have effects, I put them all in and grouped them up.  However, I don't know what attribute the Freezing Spin (Down Smash) plays.  If anyone knows what attribute that move is, please tell me and I'll fix it accordingly.--Posted by [[User:Zion Crayson|Zion Crayson]] on Saturday, February 14th 2009 at 6:51 PM (EST)
== Duration of Final Smash ==
In the Giga Bowser (Final Smash) page, it says that GB lasts for 10 secs, while it says 12 here. Please fix it. [[Special:Contributions/119.246.121.91|119.246.121.91]] 09:01, 20 September 2011 (EDT)
== Brawl images ==
There should probably be a image of Giga Bowser in Brawl, since there are only pictures in Melee right now. <small>—Preceding unsigned comment added by [[User:108.86.242.139|108.86.242.139]] ([[User talk:108.86.242.139|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/108.86.242.139|contribs]]) 10:10, 26 February 2013 (EST)</small>
:As it says at the top, this is mainly a Melee-only page, and all Brawl-related stuff for Giga Bowser is on [[Giga Bowser (Final Smash)]]. [[User:Toomai|Toomai]] [[User talk:Toomai|Glittershine]] [[Image:Toomai.png|20px|link=User:Toomai/Bin|???]] The Quiet 10:21, 26 February 2013 (EST)
== Giga Bowser (PM)? ==
If I recall correctly (I've never actually done it, but my friends say it's possible) you can play an entire match as Giga Bowser in Project M. Should we include a character page for him separate from Bowse, since he has different abilities?

::It's actually included on the Wiki on [[Bowser (PM)|Bowser's]] page, so I don't think I need to. It includes some of his differences from Bowser in that section, so that might be enough, but we should still consider it.

:::I say no. Just keep it on the [[Bowser (PM)]] page, it's already on there, and moving it would be pretty much useless.

==Playability without hacks (Melee)==

Reportedly works.

:...My big problem is people saying it works. If they've tried it, and it works, then we have something. But the only way to truly know is if someone on ''here'' checks.

::::The people who say it works were both newbies, so there's no reason to trust them. It also requires a really obscure controller and a really difficult method.

== Can Giga Bowser be considered as a Boss? ==
Honestly, I think that he should be considered as a minor boss instead.
Unlike bosses he takes knockback, can grab ledges and items, ect.
[[User:I like videogaems|I like videogaems]] ([[User talk:I like videogaems|talk]]) 11:19, 28 February 2017 (EST)
== Hacking Category? ==
Should Giga Bowser be put in the Hacking category because he can be added in smash Bros. via hacks. ONLY APPLIES TO MELEE AND ULTIMATE. [[User:S3AHAWK|S3AHAWK]] ([[User talk:S3AHAWK|talk]]) 21:04, April 17, 2020 (EDT)
== Brawl and Smash 4 renders ==
They are the final smash, but they are also giga bowser, so they do deserve an image of them in my opinion. Its Ya Boy, [[Special:Contributions/MeleeBoi|MeleeBoi]] [[Image:{{NameToIcon|Isabelle}}Head{{#if:Blue|Blue}}{{#if:SSBU|{{#ifeq:SSBU|SSB4|SSB4-U|SSBU}}}}.png{{#if:12px|{{!}}12px}}|link={{#if:|{{{l}}}|Isabelle{{#if:SSBU|&#32;({{#switch:SSBU|SSB4-U|SSB4-3=SSB4|#default=SSBU}})}}}}]] 21:43, April 17, 2020 (EDT)
== Heavy Armor Threshold ==
*I recently checked Giga Bowser's parameter data for ''Ultimate'', and it suggests that he can't be launched, unless he takes more than 95 units of knockback. Should the threshold be mentioned in the main article? [[Special:Contributions/67.242.2.248|67.242.2.248]] 16:19, April 27, 2020 (EDT)
== Stale moves ==
During my testing I've found that Giga Bowser's moves in ''Ultimate'' stale, both in Classic Mode and World of Light. Did a quick and dirty test on the other bosses and they don't stale. For example, in WoL on Very Easy his forward tilt will do 23.0%, then 22.5%, then 22.1%, and so on until reaching 19.8%. It appears to use different values to normal staling, his moves scale by about -0.018 per slot and normal staling is closer to around -0.09 per slot. --[[User:CanvasK|CanvasK]] ([[User talk:CanvasK|talk]]) 08:33, September 20, 2021 (EDT)
