*'''May 23: "Link"''' [http://www.smashbros.com/wii/en_us/characters/link.html]: '''{{SSBB|Link}}''' was given his official section as a character just like Mario, described as a "Veteran Fighter" by the site. Little new information was provided, but one notable occurrence in the update is that one of the screenshots features Link aiming his bow while crouching. It was unclear at this point if this is simply how he poses now when he charges it, or if he could charge while crouching. | *'''May 23: "Link"''' [http://www.smashbros.com/wii/en_us/characters/link.html]: '''{{SSBB|Link}}''' was given his official section as a character just like Mario, described as a "Veteran Fighter" by the site.

*'''May 24: "Gooey Bomb"''' [http://www.smashbros.com/wii/en_us/items/item01.html]: The first item showcased on DOJO!! was the all-new '''[[Gooey Bomb]]'''. It is a variant on the [[Motion Sensor Bomb]] from previous games which adheres to the characters themselves, and the ticking bomb was shown to be transferable between characters passing by each other. This item is effectively a "hot potato". | *'''May 24: "Gooey Bomb"''' [http://www.smashbros.com/wii/en_us/items/item01.html]: The first item showcased on DOJO!! was the all-new '''[[Gooey Bomb]]'''.

*'''June 1: "Delfino Plaza"''' [http://www.smashbros.com/wii/en_us/stages/stage02.html]: The first Stage update on DOJO, this brand new area is a near-perfect recreation of the '''[[Delfino Plaza]]''' hub area in the GameCube video game ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]''. It takes place on a platform that flies through the stage and lands into the ground at various points in a fashion similar to Melee's {{SSBM|Mute City}}. | *'''June 1: "Delfino Plaza"''' [http://www.smashbros.com/wii/en_us/stages/stage02.html]: The first Stage update on DOJO, this brand new area is a near-perfect recreation of the '''[[Delfino Plaza]]''' hub area in the GameCube video game ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]''.

*'''June 15: "Samus"''' [http://www.smashbros.com/wii/en_us/characters/samus.html]: The Veteran Fighter character profile of '''{{SSBB|Samus}}''' in her regular armored form was posted, and this is actually the first instance that armored Samus has ever been seen in actual Brawl gameplay.

How she transforms into [[Zero Suit Samus]] was not mentioned at this point. | *'''June 15: "Samus"''' [http://www.smashbros.com/wii/en_us/characters/samus.html]: The Veteran Fighter character profile of '''{{SSBB|Samus}}''' in her regular armored form was posted, and this is actually the first instance that armored Samus has ever been seen in actual Brawl gameplay.

*'''June 18: "Link: Final Smash"''' [http://www.smashbros.com/wii/en_us/characters/link.html#3rd]: Link's [[Final Smash]], as seen in the first trailer, was officially named the '''[[Triforce Slash]]'''.

*'''June 25: "Zelda"''' [http://www.smashbros.com/wii/en_us/characters/zelda.html]: '''{{SSBB|Zelda}}''' was the first revealed Veteran Fighter for ''Brawl'' since the first two trailers. Her appearance was shown to be entirely based on her ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess]]'' just like Link. She is confirmed to remain a slow character with strong magic-based attacks, but whether or not she would be able to transform into [[Sheik]] this time remained unmentioned. | *'''June 25: "Zelda"''' [http://www.smashbros.com/wii/en_us/characters/zelda.html]: '''{{SSBB|Zelda}}''' was the first revealed Veteran Fighter for ''Brawl'' since the first two trailers.

*'''July 13: "Smashville"''' [http://www.smashbros.com/wii/en_us/stages/stage06.html]: A new stage based on the ''[[Animal Crossing (universe)|Animal Crossing]]'' series. Screenshots provided for '''[[Smashville]]''' showcase a platform that seemed to float around while an Animal Crossing-style town given its "appropriate" original name is seen in the background, along with many Animal Crossing-style critters. The stage's background features elements dependent on the Wii's internal clock and calendar; Play the stage at night and it was mentioned to be nighttime in the game, and play it at night on Saturday and a stage performance by [[K.K. Slider]] was shown to occur while the brawl is on. | *'''July 13: "Smashville"''' [http://www.smashbros.com/wii/en_us/stages/stage06.html]: A new stage based on the ''[[Animal Crossing (universe)|Animal Crossing]]'' series.
