*[[Masahiro Sakurai]] stated that Wolf, along with {{SSBB|Jigglypuff}} and {{SSBB|Toon Link}}, were almost cut from ''Brawl'' due to time constraints and their late consideration for inclusion in the game, hence why they are excluded from and cannot be unlocked while playing through the main [[Subspace Emissary]] story. His popularity and similarities to Fox and {{SSBB|Falco}} were key to his inclusion in ''Brawl''<ref>[http://www.sourcegaming.info/2015/08/17/sakuraibrawlquestions/]</ref>. This explains why he uses so many animations from other characters and why some of said animations are bugged. It also explains why he looks less polished than other newcomers. | *[[Masahiro Sakurai]] stated that Wolf, along with {{SSBB|Jigglypuff}} and {{SSBB|Toon Link}}, were almost cut from ''Brawl'' due to time constraints and their late consideration for inclusion in the game, hence why they are excluded from and cannot be unlocked while playing through the main [[Subspace Emissary]] story.

*Oddly, in [[The Subspace Emissary]], Wolf's fast falling speed (1.9) is lower than his regular falling speed (2.142). This means that he can actually slow down by his descent in midair by fast falling.
