I love how the two biggest games at EVO are both Nintendo exclusive.
>But... but muh Street Fighter...
Only has a following due to the pedigree of the name. This is the beginning of the end for them, I fully expect the actual audience to not even care about the game from this point forward.
Just like shooters, the best fighting games are now all Nintendo exclusive.

You tried too hard, now your bait is wasted.
>>339053829
>Nintendo sponsoring Melee
How the fuck would that work? Or are they only giving a few Wii Us in exchange for their name and commercials being everywhere?
>>339055572
Bill will never make it out of pools
>>339053829
I like how Nintendo has to sponsor Melee
They really just want it to be Sm4sh but they can't deny Melee's popularity, and despite how fucking old it is, they still want it to be THEM whose bringing Melee
>>339055393
It's more of fgc coming around and realizing melee is a good fighting game. It isnt 2007 any more.
Really nice feeling when you realize your fundamentals in a game like guilty gear actually transfer really well to melee
Smash 4 is there because nintendo bucks.
>>339055886
Who does Bill even play? Yoshi?
>>339053829
>tr4sh
Absolute disgrace of a fighting game, if you can even call it that
>>339056337
They can't keep denying it. Smash is easily the most popular fighting game on the planet, not having it there disgust fans everywhere.
>>339055852
They'll provide CRTs and shit.
>>339056478
Yes Yoshi
Fact: Melee will never fucking die
Fact: If it does, it'll be revived again
>>339056702
Revival of M 2: Eletric Boogaloo
>>339053829
>tfw read that as bringing Melee for Wii U
>>339056624
Does NoA even have CRTs? Do they even have copies of Melee? Sure maybe some Treehouse workers might have a Gamecube or two and a copy of Melee to spare but CEO ain't small.
>>339056702
What happens when all the Melee players die? It's bound to happen eventually.
>>339053829
>still dragging melee
Just let it rest already please, it is so painful to see one of my beloved nostalgia games being filled with so much autism
>>339057224
They'll be replaced by new ones. As long as there's no true successor to what really makes Melee stand out as a competitive game, it will always attract newcomers to the scene.
>>339057378
Does Melee actually get new players, though? I'm pretty sure it's been the same group of people playing it for the last decade.
>>339057378
>As long as there's no true successor to what really makes Melee stand out as a competitive game
That's why he mentioned the ecelebs. Everyone knows melee gets way too much attention only because of them
>>339056535
Smash is easily the most popular fighting game in the US*
>>339056624
>>339053829
>Nintendo puts GCN controllers back into production for Smash 4
>Nintendo starts making CRTs for Melee
>>339057497
>>339057507
Well if you only focus on the top players, of course you're gonna see the same faces all the time. We have no idea what the pools look like and when the current top players phase out, the next top players phase in and will become familiar to anyone who keeps up with the scene.
>>339057497
yeah but they all suck ass so you're stuck with the same faces on stream because they're popular
>>339053829
D-Did they just acknowledge Melee? Is this real life?
>>339058175
No its Fanta Sea
>>339053829
It's funny how there is such a high population of thos grown adults that act like manchildren in Smash tournaments, that Nintendo has no choice but to pull a good business move and profit off their degenerate attitudes.
Somebody wreck me in netplay
