UhhhNintendo would gain nothing by pushing one of the most toxic game communities that exist.

Isn't HBox a wife-beater? Or am I thinking of another pro...
Nintendo could capitalize on Melee with an HD port or a sequel that actually builds upon the gameplay instead of just lowering the skill ceiling.
PM gained traction with Melee players, so precedent had been evidenced.
That was Mango and I'm pretty sure those rumors ended up false.
Seriously, I don't get why so many people are compelled to shit on someone for playing their favorite game and wanting more of it.
The ironic part about Hungrybox saying this is that he's one of the top Smashers with an (engineering?) job that's likely his primary income... Also, Nintendo HAS supported Smash 4 and has been a ton better about these tourney scenes lately (even those with Melee). Kind of weird to bring this up now as opposed to back in 2013, when they seemingly were working against the scene. Since then Bill Trinen has showed up at tourneys and tweeted about them and stuff.
smash fans proving once again to be the most cancerous community
Yep, I'm sure Capcom is all about supporting the players of 16 year old versions of their games.
Well Nintendo doesn't support the current smash much either.

There's a memetic nickname for SFV among some Japanese players, "Duty Fighter V", that refers to an obligation for them to play the latest mainline SF rather than because they actually enjoy the game.There is no game that plays like Street Fighter 3 in the Street Fighter series for a long time. Does it mean that people sticks with it ? No, They played Street 4 and Street 5 and moved along
.Nintendo is business not charity. They won't support a game they don't sell anymore. Specially when they are releasing a new fighring game in 2 weeks.
At least not being acknowledged is better than being shut down like Project M
This is like some pro wrestler who thinks he just cut a sick promo but doesn't realize he just made the entire audience cringe
They just announced new Amiibo for it.
Move on to the current Smash or stop complaining.
As a ST and VS player, I don't expect Capcom to put money into my events. That's the thing with legacy games: once the new one's out the company moves on.
You either choose to stay with that game with minimum to no support or you move onto the next game that could be drastically different from the original you loved.
Can't move on to a game that is mechanically inferior to a game from 16 years ago.
"This is not just a video game, this is a lifestyle.
I don't think they're ever asking for too much that Nintendo wouldn't benefit from anyways. Put some money into the pot, help out with setting up tournaments and/or just straight up make a Melee HD. They'd get tons of goodwill and if Melee HD is cheap they'd easily get close to a million sales, especially if it comes out before the next Smash.
If the one change put in place was the removal of wavedashing you'd have the Melee faithful reject the game. A lot of the complaints just sound like a community that mastered one game but won't learn to adapt to the new entries.
Smash 4 is a damn fine Smash Bros. game and wasn't this guy even at the E3 tournament?
Uhhh
Did the Bayonetta amiibo ever come out?
Edit: apparently it did
There's already a large emulator-based netplay community. No people aren't gonna hate a faithful HD port just becauseI'd be willing to bet the community would find things wrong with an HD version and go right back to what they're playing.
They want money and recognition.
A sincere question about "the life style" reactions in the first page.
How is that much different than a Youtuber that gets 1000s in Patreon support, product donations from it's audience on top of the add revenew, just to play videogames? i mean people is supporting that "life style" after all.
.....please tell me you're joking about competitive Mario Party.I mean Nintendo doesn't push the Mario Party scene either so I don't know what they're expecting. Free balloons and cake?
Why would Nintendo put money into a game that they have no ability to sell. Learn a new game if you want this.

People bringing up "but street fighter!" don't seem to realize how different Smash 4 and Melee are. The difference between the two Smash games isn't like the difference between something like SF3/4 and SFV at all. It has more common with trying to go from playing Marvel to playing SF.

What does he want, Melee HD? So they can keep whoopin the same ass for infinity? lol
Did the pro Melee scene provide any support for the latest Smash releases? It has to go both ways to some extent imo.
The very fact that you lobbed SFIII and SFIV together makes me think that it's absolutely true that the difference between Smash titles is much like the differences between SF titles.
