Sandbag's most important appearance is in the ''Home Run Contest'', a minigame where players are given 10 seconds to rack its damage up and hit it as far as possible using a [[Home-run Bat]]. In this game, Sandbag has a visible [[damage]] percentage, and flies farther when hit at higher percentages, much like characters do. When hit off the starting platform, the camera follows Sandbag until it lands and stops moving. According to its ''Melee'' trophy description, Sandbag is not hurt by attacks, and 'loves to see players wind up and let loose'. | Sandbag's most important appearance is in the ''Home Run Contest'', a minigame where players are given 10 seconds to rack its damage up and hit it as far as possible using a [[Home-run Bat]].

Although Sandbag cannot normally be controlled by human players, it is possible to circumvent this through the use of [[Action Replay]]. Doing so allows players to control it and make it move and jump, however, attempting to make it attack causes the game to freeze, and has other problematic effects. Using [[Moveset swaps|moveset swap]] hacks, it is possible to give Sandbag the moves of a playable character. However, attempting this may still cause the game to freeze. As a character, Sandbag is unusual in that it cannot be [[KO]]d. This is because the only stage on which it is meant to be found is the [[Home-run Stadium (SSBM)|Home-run Stadium]]. | ||
