But that's the thing. If Sakurai needed more time, he get it. While the demo showed polished, it was still incomplete. To do QA and debug the whole game. Plus, we don't know where the game was in terms of completion during the Summer. Probably not at a point where they were ready to release it.

I'm afraid you don't understand.  My suggestion was that they focus on getting the core gameplay and a certain number of characters ready for an August release from an earlier point in production.  It wasn't that they should have released the E3 demo that actually existed, except with fewer characters.

It only makes sense that they could have released a fully polished game a few months earlier if they had a smaller initial lineup and a few modes put on the backburner.

Anyway, a slowly expanding game that I can keep coming back to and continually find new things appeals to me as long as the game is good from Day 1.

I don’t know if the game will be as well received then compared to now if we go by your recommendation. Street Fighter V suffered from that mindset.

plus, as I mentioned before, we’re talking about Sakurai. That’s not his style.
