Not quite sure what's up with your Melee hate, but if people prefer an older game over a newer one then they should be allowed to play it. 

I don't really hate Melee, I just think it's kinda ludicrous that it's still as prominent competitively as it is. Everyone should be allowed to play it, but Smash 4 and Ultimate are both better than it in my opinion, and at this point I look at the Melee player base and the only thing I see is people who can't accept change and will stick to Melee regardless of whatever else is going on in the world... which if you really think about it, would've probably never happened if not for Brawl. Brawl being so different to Melee and being entirely anti-competitive is what created a divide within the Smash player bases, and at this point there's barely any reason for it to continue to exist, and by Ultimate there will definitely be no reason anymore. Ultimate is just a far superior game in basically every way.

Should probably wait until Ultimate releases before we can say it's the better game, but even then...

Eh, people can just feel that Melee is the better game. It doesn't have to be that Melee players are stuck in the past or won't accept change.

Imo Melee is the best, not to say Smash 4 is bad, it's good in terms of how it plays (everything else though not so much...), I personally don't like it anymore but I still think it's good. My experience with Smash was pretty much like a typical casual, I played Melee until Brawl came out and Brawl until Smash 4 came out. I thought Smash 4 was the best by a small margin but then I picked up Melee at the tail end of last year. For me Melee is the best by far and I know others that played both and prefer Melee and even someone that started with Smash 4 and then went to Melee.

I suppose my point is, is that people have different tastes and for some Melee is just better.

If a Smash game releases that's better than Melee in Melee fans opinions then they'll move on.
