Although the Smash bros dojo is out of style now, I still find myself going back there everyday just to see what's there. Today, of course, is the great king of evil Ganondorf. Now aside from this sick shot of him choke-slamming Link, today's update irked me.
The biggest problem I had with Brawl's roster was that Ganandorf was still a clone of Falcon. Yeah he was more distinct this time, but the potential for his own moveset was enormous. As such today's update also goes into details of one of Ganondorf's taunts. The infamous sword taunt.
When I saw this I was really interested in what Sakurai was going to say (unless the translator did this on his own, which is possible).
"He takes out the sword he stole from the six Sages and takes a look at it.
... Then puts it away.
What are you putting it away for? Use it! People tend to make fun of Ganondorf for this.
Argh!!! Why! It's like he acknowledges the fact that nobody wanted him to be a clone anymore. Yet he did it anyway. And then he throws that taunt in there to piss us off. What a jerk.
/end rant
Either way Brawl is awesome and I've spent too much time on it already.

Which, of course would piss people off... but I personally see it in the same style of that message to the internet in Super Paper Mario.
And besides, weapons are for losers who can't fight. Real men use their bodies only to win. That's what the taunt is. He's basically saying "I have this huge weapon, but I don't need it to beat you."
