Well with yoshi p saying that the only money guaranteed to go towards the game along with the fact despite shb making the most money, had less content than sb, im inclined to believe that it is at least partially a money issue. There really isnt much for either side whether they are siphoning it or not. One thing for sure though is that the higher ups nee dto do better at finding more devs and training them. They have devs able to come up with th elieks of marvels flopvengers, they could at least spare some for 14 no?
