One of the weirdest parts of modern platform fighter discourse is the notion that "Nintendo has the most iconic cast of characters" which is just... what??? How do I even begin on that? Even the mascot Pokemon and hyper-iconic 3Ps (Cloud, Steve, Sonic, Pac-Man) are specs in the public conciousness compared to characters like Superman and Garfield.

Either way though, it doesn't matter, and the reason why platform fighters rarely catch big audiences is most likely just that they're all content with what some are wired to see as "failure" and don't care one way or the other if they are "alive games".
Smash fans will tell you "characters aren't functions" and then get mad when you suggest the Cheetahmen because "the game isn't good".

tbh i don’t think “characters are functions” would have gotten so much flack if MvC:I didn’t use it as a hasty means to explain why the x-men were gone without acknowledging disney’s meddling
