Giant DK first appeared as a non-playable character in Stage 6 of ''Super Smash Bros.''{{'}} [[1P Game]]. Giant DK has a large amount of [[knockback]] resistance, while his own attacks have increased knockback capable of KOing opponents more easily on top of having increased range due to his size, making him a formidable opponent; however, the player is given two regular-sized [[AI]] partners to help out. On higher [[Difficulty|difficulties]], Giant DK behaves more similarly to a level 9 CPU while the player's partners are lower in level. It is possible to exploit Giant DK's AI, making him walk back and forth on the top platform, similar to [[Metal Mario]] along with his size making him a larger target to attacks. However, it is harder due to AI partners jumping into him or attacking him which will often interfere with his pattern.

It is possible to play as Giant DK using a [[debug menu]] code. Unlike the other unique boss, Metal Mario, Giant DK is considered to be better than his unchanged counterpart due to his greater jab range. He is, however, prone to being [[chain grab|chain grabbed]], such as by {{SSB|Captain Falcon}} or {{SSB|Pikachu}}. Despite being his own unique, separate character, he has the exact same head icon as {{SSB|Donkey Kong}}.
Due to being considered as a character separate from regular {{SSB|Donkey Kong}}, Giant DK does not appear in a [[Alternate costume (SSB)|different color]] when a player- or AI-controlled regular DK fights him. While Giant DK has all of regular DK's color variations (including the Team Battle-exclusive green palette), they are only accessible through the debug menu.<ref>https://tcrf.net/Super_Smash_Bros.#Giant_Donkey_Kong</ref>

===As a playable character===
:Main article: [[Giant Donkey Kong (SSB)]]
It is possible to play as Giant DK using a [[debug menu]] code or GameShark. He is distinguished by having drastically increased attack range and being heavier than the regular {{SSB|Donkey Kong}}, notably with regards to his jab. He is, however, prone to being [[chain grab|chain grabbed]], such as by {{SSB|Captain Falcon}} or {{SSB|Pikachu}}, and his grab doesn't reach directly in front of him. Despite being his own unique, separate character, he has the exact same head icon as the original.
