Oh, assets obviously get ported over, like models and sound effects. Those are files that can easily be exported to different formats. I think Corcius more meant coding, like the frame data and parameters of characters and what not, as well as the game engine.You could see in the first Brawl trailer that Kirby had his old Melee side special and Link apparently also had some animations from Brawl in early footage of Smash 4. The capsule item Villager pocketed during his feature also was the same version from Brawl rather than it's redesign.
I think they do port over certain assets from a previous game in order to speed up development a little until the newer assets are finished for use. Lucario and Diddy Kong also had their Brawl battle portraits during the April Direct for example.
