**Sakurai did not plan to include Ganondorf as a playable character in ''Melee'', only including him later in development because his body had a very similar build to Captain Falcon's, allowing him to be easily added on as a last minute clone of Captain Falcon.

*Alongside fellow ''{{uv|The Legend of Zelda}}'' fighter {{SSBM|Sheik}}, ''Melee'' marks Ganondorf's first playable appearance. Both would eventually become playable characters outside of ''Smash'' in {{s|zeldawiki|Hyrule Warriors}}.

*Not counting Donkey Kong and Mario, as they have been both a protagonist and antagonist, Ganondorf, along with Bowser, are the first two playable antagonists in the ''Smash'' franchise. <!--Mewtwo does not count, due to its antagonistic role being exclusive to the main anime series and possibly other non-game adaptations, but being non-existence in at least the main series games. Do not use its appearance in Event 51: The Showdown as a counterargument, as some antagonistic fighters who aren't necessarily villains are still considered villains in certain scenarios in the Smash series.-->
