Mr. Game & Watch appears as an unlockable character in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. He seems mostly unchanged from Melee, but he is actually much more powerful and speedier than in the last game.
Interestingly, in a Dojo update where Sakurai explained some mysteries about the Subspace Emissary, he says that Tabuu used Mr. Game & Watch's flat qualities to create Shadow Bugs, making Mr. Game & Watch the origin of Shadow Bugs, though Game & Watch is not aware of it himself.
