I have never played Other M, so I blanket statement'd because that's the cool internet thing to do. Perhaps utilisation of "mainly" over "only" would be made an improvement to my point. I need to stop using these definitive words because they distract from my point!

In the great uproar about Other M though, 90% of complaints were about their butchering of Samus Aran, over complaints of the finnicky gameplay. Not saying that there aren't problems, but the major issues people had with Other M were with the story/characterisation.


But regardless, that's still just one game of their repertoire, and not even a fighting game at that. I am just puzzled as to why Other M being "bad" means that a Team Ninja Dissidia will be bad, when there is pretty much nothing comparable about the two.

Is DoA a terrible fighting game? I think the answer to that question will be more useful to whether a Team Ninja Dissidia will be bad in terms of gameplay.

If you're concerned with the handling of the source material... You do have Other M on one hand, but then you have Hyrule Warriors on the other. I feel like Dissidia would have more in common with Hyrule Warriors if you absolutely had to make a comparison, so I'd be cautiously optimistic. Particularly as fighting games don't need to have the most stellar of stories.
