Pretty much all you need or want to know about Brawl is all over the Internet, but until Sakurai stops, I'll keep on bringing this recap. Monday brought us Boss Strategies. Sakurai gives tips on how to fight against most of the bosses in the game. Basically, just do what you usually would do against a boss fight. On Wednesday, all of the Pokemon that can be summoned from Pokeball items were revealed. The list is surprisingly short considering how much extra content the game has.
Thursday showed people Snake's and Fox's communication taunts. Snake and Fox can communicate with their respected partners from their series' who weigh in on the battle. Friday was a double update showing off Peach's special moves and the map of the final maze before fighting the final boss in the Subspace Emissary.
Thursday's "secret" character after the jump.
Ganondorf is back and is as lame as ever. I'll never understand why they made him a Captain Falcon clone and not just another sword fighter. Hell, Sakurai even teases in Thursday's post as to why Ganondorf doesn't use his sword. His Final Smash looks to be pretty awesome though.
Have any of you unlocked or seen all of this week's updates content?

Do they run differently then normal old men?
But God -- I don't use Gannondorf either. I don't know anyone who does. He's probably the only character I don't use. Him and Lucas, who I refuse to play in some sort of silly and ineffective protest until they bring Mother 3 here.
Maybe once the fan translation is done I'll play Lucas....but not a moment sooner.
No need for swords, pick axes could be used.
Just think about it, Ganondwarf... it could be a success.
Chokeslam ftw!

@ Big Z - I see your thinking, but I still stand firm on the dwarf issue. The Warlock Punch, due to height restrictions would become the Warlock Cock Punch, far more effective. The Warlock Kick would become the Warlock Kick in the Shins, or when enabled from behind, The Warlock Long-Step.
Gotta love Ninja fuckin' dwarfs.
A Chimpanzee?
With a tail eh?
And I supposed DK was a Marmoset?
He was much better as Gannon the huge 20 foot tall demon pig from the NES and snes that is what should have been in the game.
Gannondorf sounds like a dorf bartender that should be serving me beer in the game not being baddass and they guy is uglyer than the pig demon.
Sadly, there are no more red shells, making Gannondorf completely pointless.
And Ridley, oh Ridley. Visually he looks great... but I really wanted him playable. And no, he isn't too big, because Kirby is 8" tall, Olimar is the size of a small coin, and Bowser has been at least four times as big as Mario in all the 3D Mario games.
He's brutal, you just have to be methodical.
If you're a spammy button masher Ganondorf will not appeal to you. If you're good at prediction and know how to play a good air game, he does just fine.
Sez the guy with teh Bender pic.
