Last secret character confirmed for Super Smash Bros. Brawl: Wolf completes the roster

Tomorrow, on January 31st, in Japan the Wii fighting game Super Smash Bros. Brawl will be released. Yesterday the game’s street date was broken and some lucky Japanese Smash fans got an early copy of the game that revealed 1 newcomer and 7 veterans for Brawl.

Now those same gamers have played through the game’s modes and as a result we can now confirm the last secret newcomer Wolf as one of the 35 characters in Super Smash Bros Brawl! Here’s what he looks like:

Some of Wolf’s (clone) moves are:
B — Blaster. Less range fires slower than Fox and Falco, but looks stronger.
Forward B — Same as Fox and Falco’s shadow fox dash. Only Wolf’s goes slightly upwards too. At about a 25 degree angle.
Down B — Reflector
Up B — Like Firefox, only it doesn’t really charge, goes really high though.
Final Smash — Red Landmaster:

The complete Super Smash Bros. Brawl character roster from the Japanese version looks as follows:

Here’s an awesome new gameplay video showing Snake VS. Sonic VS. Dedede VS. MetaKnight on Shadow Moses.

Watch Zero Suit Samus VS. Sheik on the F-Zero GX Port Town Stage.

Update: Here’s a random 4-player online Wi-Fi match with Wolf.

i hate to complain about this awesome game but why a second fox clone? id have rather had krystal or someone from another series. i guess i should be happy to have 35 characters in brawl that’s 10 more than melee had!

I’m feeling a bit sad, Mewtwo was my favorite in Melee and it looks like he’s out in Brawl. I had never even heard of Wolf until today!

Lucario is basically mewtwo supadupa, so don’t worry, just watch some gameplay of lucario and you’ll see.

I understand that fox is one of the most popular characters, but its kinda unfortunate that they put wolf in as a clone to fill up the roster.

i dont think wolf is the last character. there is only one confirmed footage of him actually fifghting. plus im sure there are other still potential characters that might show up as assit and they will satify the player
