Ok you want a real argument, I can't believe I have to explain all this but here it goes. First of all you simplified what I said as much as possible. I didn't say it would be stupid because Capcom did it, I said you guys shouldn't just copy Capcom and it would be stupid if every other FG developer did it too ie: NRS Cup, Nintendo/Smash Cup, Double Helix Cup, Arc System Works/Aksys Cup, Namco Cup(has a nice ring to it tho), SNK Playmore Cup etc... People need to be creative and come up with there own ideas. They could do something similar, but not the exact same thing, i mean come on. I also said it would be embarrassing because it wouldn't get many views and the games don't function that well (injustice isn't that bad offline but MK9 is just a joke). The reason it wouldn't get many views is because not many people really care about NRS games. I guarantee that every other community in the FGC will immediately facepalm when they hear of an NRS Cup(at this time).
NRS has only made 2 imo bad games, that's it. Capcom has been around for decades and has produced some of the most iconic games in history. MK9 is a dead game and you could say Injustice is too. SF4 has been out since 2008(arcade) 2009(console) and is still going strong with an update as recent as Dec.15 2014(lol). If for some miracle MKX actually turns out to be a really good tournament fighter then it would be kool to have somthing like a Capcom Cup but not the exact same thing, and it shouldn't be the first year. You have to have a well developed community and game that last for a long time to do such things. If NRS wants this to happen then they need to update the game once every 6 months to a year for a long time like Capcom instead of patching over and over again for the first 6 months and then never touching it again(but they want to put out a new game every couple of years). It also has to be done by either NRS or WB, not the players. One of the reasons the LoL pro scene is so successful is because Riot took complete control of their pro league(they are also going strong with the same game on it's 5th season). Which i have always thought needed to happen in the FGC, Capcom did that to an extent, it's kool that they didn't take it completely over and made the community tourney's part of the Capcom Cup.
Finally the MK community needs to learn a lesson from the Smash community. They use to get the most hate out of all the games in the FGC, but they don't anymore because they did their OWN thing, they have their OWN tournaments and they don't just follow the SF community. They don't care what the other communities think of them either. In time they have earned the respect of the FGC and the whole gaming world.
There, is that a good enough explanation for ya?
