I do play them, but I never buy them at full price for a number of reasons (though I always buy Smash day 1).

1: The content doesn't justify $60.

2: There is always an edition that comes out that has more characters a year later and at a cheaper price.

3: I'm not heavy into fighters, so the people that wind up being online a year later is fine with me. I tend to play them mostly couch co-op anyways. It's a lot more fun to get drunk at a party with a group of friends and bet "all the money in the world" on a round of Smash or Tekken Tag 2 Wii U. (They are also great for making drinking games around.)




Number 2 is primarily a capcom problem. Everyone else tends to be better with not rereleasing expansions.

Persona 4 Ultimax, BlazBlue Chrono Phantasma Extend, Mortal Kombat: Komplete Edition, Dead or Alive 5: Last Round, Virtua Fighter 5: Final Showdown,  Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection Online, Arcana Heart 3: Love MAX!!!!!!

It's not a "Capcom" thing.  Updates need to be either cheap, or free.  That is a problem.  No one's fault that the game wasn't tested enough.  Granted, there's so much you get with a fighting game, it's impossible to test everything out as much less is scripted, people who buy the first editions need not be kicked because of it.  There was no reason to buy Street Fighter IV.  You were better off waiting for Super, at very least.
