Should balance patches/updates exist?

Firstly, fix the gamebreaking/ridiculously OP and unintentional stuff ASAP. This is a given.

If they're going to actually rebalance the game, they better make darned sure they know what they're meddling with. And they better not bog us down with minor updates either. They should have a very clear idea of what they're going to do. Ultimately, due to SSB4's size, they should focus on the ends. Middle-of-the-road Mario and Pit shouldn't have any changes not involving the glitchy stuff. Fix the broke stuff first.

I agree with this completely. Before potentially messing up anything else, it's vital to fix what's actually broken right now.

What I'm wondering is the methodology they'll employ in potentially patching the game. How exactly will they be getting the feedback they need to balance things out? I would rather they not fiddle with things too much as that has the potential to make confusing and even worse.
