boo hoo it's not nintendo characters cry some more

I feel like that's how people react to any Smash typed fighting game. I thought PSASBR was actually pretty good, I had no idea why people dunked on that game so much.

Though Showdown will obviously have a smaller roster, it also looks pretty decent - I'll be curious to see what the larger consensus is as this is one of the first reviews I've seen for it.

Its hard to know if a game is bad or not when the main complaint is its like other games and just makes it a bad review.

And yeah most ppl react that way because theyre too much invested in nintendo imo. If a game copies the playstyle that should be a bonus not a negative.

Best Fighter of 2019

VGChartz's Evan Norris: "On the fighting game front, 2019 was a year for industry stalwarts. The last 12 months saw the eleventh mainline installment of the Mortal Kombat franchise, a bloody and tactical fighter with a spectacular story mode; a tense reboot of Samurai Shodown, a series that began its life in the arcade in 1993; and Dead or Alive 6, a refined and accessible entry in Team Ninja's long-running 3D fighting game. The odd man out in our shortlist: Shovel Knight Showdown, a brawling spin-off featuring heroes and villains from the indie darling Shovel Knight."
