Honestly fed up of Melee fans. Good game, but I feel I have to resent it now because of the fanbase. It's holding the series back as Nintendo constantly feel they have to pander to these Melee fans. The need to make the inferior Gamecube controller compatible with every iteration. Worrying about changing characters too much because shock horror people might have to relearn them. Melee fans even wanted to Nintendo to reintroduce Melee's glitches into Smash 4 e.g. wavedashing. Completely insane, and at least Nintendo didn't cave on this one.

Bloody hell, I hate the whole wave-dashing/etc rubbish. When a game forces you to learn tedious exploits just to be competitive, that game is fundamentally flawed.

And it's just sad when players become so entrenched in these exploits that they can't play without them and demand their return.

God forbid people ever have to, you know, learn new gameplay mechanics and movesets.
