How they treated professional Melee and especially Project M was the moment I realized Nintendo was just another out-of-touch company. So many indie devs would kill for fans that passionate, let alone a modding scene that robust. Nintendo threw it all away.

Yeah this was my first moment also and largely why I will never pay for NSO+. How they treat the esport community is crazy.
