Super Smash Bros. (series): Difference between revisions

'''[[Giga Bowser]]''', known in Japan as '''Giga Koopa''' ({{ja|ギガクッパ|Giga Kuppa}}), is the gargantuan and powered up version of [[Bowser]] introduced in ''Melee''. He is the secret final boss of ''Melee''{{'}}s  {{SSBM|Adventure Mode}}, only appearing if the player clears Adventure Mode on Normal level or higher in 18 minutes or fewer without continuing. Beat him without using a continue to get his trophy. He is also one of the fighters in the final match of ''Melee''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s Event mode, "The Showdown", with [[Ganondorf]] and [[Mewtwo]] by his side. Giga Bowser has several abilities that the regular Bowser does not. Thanks to his tremendous size, he is immune to [[grab]]s, getting [[inhale]]d by {{SSBM|Kirby}}, and getting [[Egg Lay|egg laid]] by {{SSBM|Yoshi}}. As with Metal Mario, Giga Bowser becomes a playable character for short periods of time in the following game, ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', when {{SSBB|Bowser}} performs his "Final Smash" attack. Bowser transforms into Giga Bowser, and is practically invincible until the effect of the Final Smash wears off.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.smashbros.com/wii/en_us/characters/bowser.html|title=Bowser's page on the official Super Smash Bros.
