Due to being a boss character only playable through [[hacking]], Giant Donkey Kong has been banned in tournaments since ''Smash 64's'' inception. However, arguments have been made to legalise Giant Donkey Kong due to his attributes arguably making him worse than the regular Donkey Kong, as well as mods like [[19XXTE]] and [[Smash Remix]] making him much easier to access, which sometimes see use over the original game for their quality of life enhancements. Notably, they fix the results screen for unplayable characters like Giant Donkey Kong, making tournaments run more smoothly; in the past, this was problematic due to requiring resets, and thus reloading the chests to make him playable, delaying tournament sets. Due to his changes arguably making him worse than the regular character, it's argued that the metagame impact of Giant Donkey Kong's unbanning would be minimal, making the ban irrational.

Hacking the game presents logistical issues to tournaments, requiring every setup to be running the correct modded version of the game, which alone can have effects on integrity. Even this has limits: Simple Gameshark cheats require the game to be reset after every win due to the [[results screen]] [[crash]]ing the game without further modifications, delaying tournaments by affecting mid-set processes like counterpicking, online or offline. Thus, it is considered more practical to keep Giant Donkey Kong banned. | ||
