The player can be seen in the lower-left region of the screen when Giant Kirby makes his cinematic Adventure Mode entrance. Even though he has already made his entrance on to the stage, the match starts with both the player and Giant Kirby both spawning in the standard ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' manner. Giant Kirby is slightly larger than a regular Kirby with a [[Super Mushroom]]. He is a little heavier and stronger than Kirby, and if a regular pink Kirby is challenging him, Giant Kirby will be yellow, but still pink during his cutscene of entry. If the player defeats Giant Kirby, one gets the bonus award ''Giant Kirby KO'', which awards 10,000 extra points. Giant Kirby also appears as a common enemy in [[Classic Mode]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl|Brawl]]'', although this is merely a regular {{SSBB|Kirby}} under the effects of the Super Mushroom.

It is possible that Giant Kirby may be a reference to [[Giant Donkey Kong]]. In [[The Subspace Emissary]], there is an [[False Character#False Diddy Kong (Giant)|evil Giant Diddy Kong]], which may be the successor to them both, as well as a [[Giant Bowser]] and a Giant {{SSBB|Charizard}} also existing. Giant Kirby's moveset is the same as Kirby's, but his recovery is better. He is also heavier, thus harder to KO, especially on Very Hard [[difficulty]], where his [[Damage Ratio]] is 0.5.
*In ''Brawl'', this may occur for Stage 5, with the player teaming up with {{SSBB|King Dedede}} and {{SSBB|Meta Knight}}. King Dedede and Meta Knight can also be a giant opponent in addition to Giant Kirby.
*In {{for3ds}}, the opponents are fully randomized, but it is possible to battle against a giant version of Kirby.
*In {{forwiiu}}, Giant Kirby may appear as an intruder.
