Master Hand reappears in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' as the embodiment of creation. In Classic Mode, the battle against Master Hand in this game is nearly identical to that of the original ''Super Smash Bros.''; after defeating all opposition, the player faces Master Hand in [[Final Destination]]. If the player clears all stages on the normal difficulty or higher within 10 minutes without using a continue, [[Crazy Hand]] appears once Master Hand has lost half of his HP. Once defeated, Master Hand falls back into the void of Final Destination as the screen fades to white. The player reverts into a trophy, appearing among the trophies of others who have defeated Master Hand.

Master Hand is featured in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. Though he is never actually fought in the Subspace Emissary, he appears in Boss Battles Mode with the standard Emissary boss health bar. He also appears in his usual role as the last enemy faced in Classic Mode. Crazy Hand joins him under the same circumstances as in ''Melee''; however, unlike in ''Melee'', Crazy Hand appears immediately at the start of the battle.

In the Subspace Emissary storyline, Master Hand makes his debut as the leader of the Subspace Army, commanding his loyal minions, [[Ganondorf]], [[Bowser]], and [[Wario]]. However, near the end, it is discovered that Master Hand is being controlled by [[Tabuu]] via the chains of light in order to trick Ganondorf, Bowser, and Wario into drawing the entire world into [[Subspace (Super Smash Bros. Brawl)|Subspace]]. Angered, Ganondorf attempts to attack Tabuu, but he is blocked by a force field and turned into a trophy upon smashing into Master Hand. This severs the chains holding Master Hand, which tries to fight Tabuu but is knocked to the ground by the force field, where he lies unconscious for the remainder of the mode. When Master Hand is knocked out, he does not turn into a trophy as everyone else does.

Of the three minions that work for Master Hand, only Bowser is truly loyal to him; Bowser is heavily troubled when he sees Master Hand motionless. Ganondorf plans on betraying Master Hand, while Wario only does the work for his own amusement.
