Ganon is a big character and it just makes sense that he would be a really strong, really slow fighter as opposed to a sword style that probably wouldn't fit his character or diversify him from any other of the million swordsmen in the game. There were only 3 "big men" in melee if i remember correctly and i think 4 swordsmen? We have 4 "big men" in brawl and 5 swordsmen (arguably 6 with pit)? Tipping the scales in favor of swords wouldn't be fair, especially if ganon would keep his "strong but slow" theme as a swordsmen since he would likely overpower the others with the range that a sword as strong as his character is now would have.
Take the Ganon fight in Ocarina of Time for example. He threw energy balls, and shockwave punched the ground. Then you can also consider using magic along with phisical attacks. Maybe even summoning enemies... Imagine summoning a Redead somewhere that moves slowly but can grab people that aren't careful. All that can be done without a sword. He could also summon weapons from other games for some attacks, like a trident, dual blades or a sword.
There's possible stuff that fits, but Captain Falcon doesn't for sure, even if the gameplay is interesting. If you wanted a slow Captain Falcon you could use Blood Falcon, an actual character in F-Zero, that is ACTUALLY a clone of Captain Falcon himself. In that game. They do look too alike though.
