How many characters does a person need to have that they'll only use a few times before shelving them for good for the one or two regulars they tend to stick to?

That might be how YOU play it, but not everybody does. I like to mix things up, and play with a variety of characters.

I'm not trying to be the very best at one character. I have a few favourites that I'll play more than others, but I play with all of them, for the enjoyment of playing with all of them.

Almost anybody I know that plays any fighting game at all, whether it be Smash, Street Fighter, Soul Calibur, what have you, they find a character or two they're good with and tend to use them essentially always. Yeah, a different character may get used here or there, but most people focus on getting better with a select few characters, both to take on higher tier in game challenges, and to be able to compete online as is the case with any fighting game basically from the past decade. Now YOU may not play that way, but I assure you, you are in the minority. Or maybe you're just assuming you use more characters actively than you really do. Even then, there is no way even playing that way that you can say you fully utilize a 50+ character roster and that it needs more characters just because your fan service needs haven't been entirely fulfilled.

So then ... uh ... don't use the other characters? No one's forcing you to use the 40 some other characters. 

When I buy a sports game, I don't play as every team, but I want them all in there.
