Possibly something changed, or maybe only Sakurai thought about it a little tougher, but he did come around to discovering that right balance for Ultimate.People are tired of Ninteno's increasing failure to deliver. Their Immediate announcements are yawnworthy. Switch is SUCH a cool system but it feels underutilized for their major IP. The biggest slap in the face to everyone is buying this system, and 4 years later still no mention of half of their important IP. Lots of little indie games and unique Japanese ports. Remakes of matches no one asked for, and no remakes of those people are asking for. They just seem completely deaf to their fanbase, and not only that, HOSTILE to their fanbase in several ways (shutting down fan mods of games, DMCAing youtubers, the crush controversy, etc ).
