Is that real or photo-shopped?

Yeah sure, a professional entirely Japanese spoken game developer speaks in perfect English and swears, it's SOOOO real

On the plus side, look at the Ganondorf buffs!

*Ganondorf's neutral attack appears to have greater range, as well as significantly increased speed.
*Ganondorf's forward tilt has significantly decreased ending lag.
*Ganondorf's up smash has significantly decreased ending lag.
*Ganondorf's neutral aerial is a much faster move overall.
*Ganondorf appears to dash notably faster.

What was his fundamental weakness in Brawl?

Part of his issue was that he was slow. Ungodly slow. That seems to be fixed. His reach was also a problem. His jab seems to at least have better range. One major flaw was the fact that his size made him easy to juggle around. If anything, this Ganondorf looks slightly bigger.

I thought the Brawl mechanics, with its emphasis on a defensive playstyle, with a lack of L-canceling and the crappy stale move negation, also worked toward Ganondorf's ultimate falter.

Honestly it's a combination of a lot of things. And I may have spoken to soon. That may have been a Smash Run match where everyone is powered up in different aspects. His speed may just be because he collected power ups in Smash run.
