Redbull, ESL, and Twitch have all made attempts to get majors/circuits going, and Nintendo has actively stopped them.

Japan runs events with no prize pools because of Nintendo. Sumabato (Osaka), 11 events, all with 300+ entrants, 8 of those events met that cap of 320/330. Umebura (Tokyo), 8 events, all with 500+ entrants. EVO Japan, 3000+ entrants (2000 showed up), and the prize is a controller.

When Nintendo "partners/sponsors" majors, it comes at the cost of running vanilla Melee. This means no software/memory card mods for improvement of both player and viewer experience like UCF, lag reduction for monitors, and post-game stats.

That also means relying on CRTs more, which sucks logistically but also for the game's future - monitors are being made now, CRTs are not.

And this is all after the infamous moment when Nintendo told EVO not to run Melee at EVO 2013. I hope it was the backlash from that that caused Nintendo to pivot, because that means all of this coming to light gives us something to be loud about now, again.

Nintendo is always going to throw their weight behind Ultimate because at the end of the day any competitive efforts are just a marketing tool. Ultimate is on store shelves right now whereas Melee has been out of print for 12 years at this point
