'''Gargantuans''' is the 25th [[event match]] of 51 in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. In this match, the player's character is Giant Bowser and the enemy is Giant Donkey Kong and the match is on [[Fourside]]. The object is to beat Donkey Kong. There are also Tiny {{SSBM|Mario}} and {{SSBM|Peach}} to fight, but won't pose a threat since they will probably be KO'd by Giant Donkey Kong's first attack anyway. Since the player is big, their recovery distance will decrease and not be KO'd even on high damage. Donkey Kong will sometimes [[self-destruct]] between the two buildings on the right of the stage.

Gargantuans is the 25th event match of the 51 event matches in Super Smash Bros. Melee. In this match, the player's character is Giant Bowser and the enemy is Giant Donkey Kong and the match is on Fourside. The object is to beat Donkey Kong. There are also Tiny Mario and Peach to fight, but won't pose a threat since they will probably be KO'd by Giant Donkey Kong's first attack anyway. Since the player is big, their recovery distance will decrease and not be KO'd even on high damage. Donkey Kong will sometimes self-destruct between the two buildings on the right of the stage.

Trivia

  • Gargantuans acts as a homage to old, campy B-movies of the mid 1900s, especially monster films; the inclusion of Donkey Kong is a reference to King Kong, a well-known American movie monster, and Bowser acts as a reference to Godzilla, a movie monster hailing from Japan. As a result of these two appearing on Fourside (which EarthBound designed to be a parody of large, sprawling Japanese and American metropolises, common areas for monster films), the entire Event Match is similar to the most well-known of the Godzilla films, King Kong vs. Godzilla. The inclusion of Tiny Mario and Tiny Peach emulates the frequent use of helpless civilians in such movies.
  • Tiny Mario and Peach had their voices removed.
  • During the battle, the song from Kongo Jungle plays.
  • The player doesn't need to KO tiny Mario and tiny Peach to clear the event.
