That's what stings the most; they know this isn't what their consumers want, but they're covering their ears yelling "lalalalala the customer is always wrong" and aggressively ignoring the pleas of their fanbase. It's a pattern with Nintendo this generation, but this is perhaps the worst example; gutting a beloved franchise and refusing to accept any criticism.

I really hope this is a massive flop.

I see it as more of an image management thing. Nintendo wants their YouTube channel to promote and advertise them, and for people to come in and look at things and get excited for said things - having one of their videos with an insane dislike rate and lots of negative comments everywhere is detrimental to that from their point of view.

Not defending their choice, just to be clear.

You are right, there's definitely that, also the reason they didn't show it at E3, I suspect.

But what I meant was more along the lines of, they didn't make changes based on initial criticism, they just kept doing what they were doing instead of taking feedback into account.
