Why are we listening to this at all? Developers always say crap like this.

"Zelda U isnt /really/ open world"

"I dont think Smash Bros is a fighting game"

People just say crap to make their game sound different.

Ever seen pro play on street fighter ? 

Only technical part of tekken is remembering combos lel

I see a lot of spamming in Street Fighter, that's about it. Even in tournament play.

Of course it's spamming. You only use 5-6 different skills on each char, it's all about perfect timing and counters, instead of memory (that and quarter of circle)

It's not really technical to spam something over and over until the enemy does something you want him to do, it's cheap.

Tekken is the poster child for "unnecessarily complex" in terms of fighting games, is it not? Doesn't seem bad to me.

That really doesn't mean anything. It might mean it has an easier learning curve or they want to distance it from Tekken. It's good they don't use the Tekken engine because I hate how fast Tekken matches play.

Which was...

I was looking forward to Nintendo's first attempt at a traditional fighting game.
