Giant Bowser is a minor boss that appears in Super Smash Bros. Melee, Super Smash Bros. Brawl, and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
In Melee
Giant Bowser appears at the end of Adventure Mode, where he is fought at Final Destination. Under most circumstances, he acts as the final boss of the mode, and defeating him allows the player to finish the mode. However, if the difficulty is set to Normal or higher and the player arrives at Final Destination and defeats him within 18 total minutes, Giant Bowser will transform into Giga Bowser upon being KO'd. From there, the player must defeat Giga Bowser to clear the mode.
As a cosmetic change, Giant Bowser uses Bowser's black palette swap if he is fought on Normal difficulty or higher.
Giant Bowser also appears in Classic Mode as a random giant opponent on Stage 5. Unlike other giant opponents fought on their home stages, Giant Bowser is fought on Fountain of Dreams stage (usually belonging to Kirby).
Extra appearances by Giant Bowser include an immensely large version that appears, controlled by the player, in Event 25: Gargantuans against the computer controlled similarly-sized DK. He also reappears in Event 42: Trouble King 2, where the player, as Luigi, must KO him twice. These two events are his appearances on event matches.
In Brawl
In Brawl, Giant Bowser can appear in Classic Mode as a possible giant opponent on Stage 8.
Aside from being a random giant opponent in Classic Mode on Stage 8, Giant Bowser's closest resemblance to being a minor boss like he was in Melee is in the solo event Event 27: Three-Beast Carnage (from Event match in Brawl). He appears alongside Giant DK and new minor boss Giant Charizard, appearing to attack New Pork City. The player's assigned character in this solo event is R.O.B.
In Ultimate
Giant Bowser acts only as both the penultimate opponent in Round 6 of Yoshi's Classic Mode route before both the Bonus Game and boss fight against Rathalos in the final round (possibly as a reference to the Yoshi's Island sequels when Kamek transforms adult Bowser into a giant upon the latter's defeat), as well as the first of three opponents (before King Dedede and King K. Rool appear individually) in Round 3 of Terry's Classic Mode route.
He also appears in the Spirit Battles of Baby Bowser, Groudon, and Volcanion.
