That last part gets me. If you forgot, Capcom did release a balancing patch for free. It was called Arcade edition v2012. Now, If this was just a simple balancing patch then they would have release it for free, but that is not the case. They are giving you 5 new characters, 6 new stages, and all the DLC costumes for $15. That is not a bad deal. And most of the people who don't play competitively don't really care about online anyways
