Template:Infobox Final Smash SSB4 Giga Mac (ギガ・マック, Giga Mac) is Little Mac's Final Smash in Super Smash Bros. 4.
Upon using his Final Smash, Little Mac transforms into a hulking beast. He retains the same moveset, but with a serious upgrade in power and reach. His smash attacks in particular can become one-hit KOs if fully charged, along with the Straight Lunge-- notably, said attack gets a reduction of more than half of its charge time, allowing it to be fully charged in under a second. In the air, however, Giga Mac isn't much stronger than Little Mac. Like Giga Bowser, Giga Mac cannot be launched and does not flinch when attacked, but he can still receive damage. While Little Mac is under the effects of Giga Mac, his Power Meter becomes temporarily disabled. Doc Louis does not call out during Giga Mac's taunts.
Trophy description
This final Smash turns Little Mac into a hulking monster of a man. In Punch-Out!! for Wii, Little Mac could take this form by building up the gauge with some well-timed blows. In this game, it seriously powers up his attacks and makes him even faster. He'll completely dominate on the ground, but air battles are outside his weight class.
Origin
In the two-player mode of Punch-Out!! for the Wii, both players control a Little Mac; either can turn into Giga Mac after punching the opponent enough times in a certain area. If they do, the game then shifts from two evenly-matched Little Macs fighting in split-screen to gameplay resembling the single-player mode, with Little Mac fighting a larger and slower Mac. The player controlling Giga Mac gains slower but stronger attacks, in addition to a taunt.
In Punch-Out!! for Wii, there is another Giga Mac color scheme used by the brown haired Little Mac controlled by the second player. However, in Super Smash Bros. 4, Giga Mac only has one color scheme regardless of the costume that Little Mac had prior to using the Final Smash, like other transformation Final Smashes.

Trivia
- In the E3 2014 Super Smash Bros. for Wii U demo, due to a glitch, if Giga Mac touches a spring, he will be stuck in his bind pose for the remaining duration of the Final Smash.
- While the transformation is a size increase for Little Mac, Giga Mac is actually only slightly larger than Bowser.
- Even though his wireframe alternate outfit removes his voice, Little Mac still makes a vocal sound upon transforming, and still has the default Giga Mac texture.
- Giga Mac sticks his tongue out when charging certain attacks (most notably his up smash and Straight Lunge).
