80/80

I don't see it happening anytime soon, they're just way too out of touch with the current state of gaming. Maybe give it 2-3 years to let esports / FGC develop more and they'd give it a shot.

I wouldn't bank on it though.

This isn't about Smash at all. It's about Pokken and Nintendo being behind the times.

Wait... it's dead already? I thought it was pretty good when I played the first one, so I was expecting DX to rally the fanbase.

It's dead competitively. It basically only exists at Nintendo events now. If you play it, it's mostly just for your own enjoyment.

For a fighting game, that means you're better off picking up a new game unless your locals play.

Or, you know, just finding out exactly how drunk one needs to be to no longer obliterate the CPU, via rigorous research and experimentation.

It's more an argument that the Smash community doesn't belong at FGC events rather than the game's genre classification.

I think a lot of the people who played the WiiU version felt burned by the lack of support that version got (Only one patch and no DLC as the arcade version got updates and characters) so they didnt have trust that the switch version would get support.

That is on top of the only one year gap between versions made DX feel like a cash grab.

Or at least thats my thoughts on it.

It's not a competitive fighting game.

It's like saying Beer Pong isn't a sport. Well it IS a sport, but nobody wants to see that shit at the olympics or professional Beer Pong players and so on, and people saying they play sports because they play beer pong are being really disingenuous.
