Thinking about it in the long run, perhaps SNK's jump to 3D was a massive mistake. I think SNK right now would be in a much better spot in the current FGC climate and still stand out if they stuck to 2D and were able to perfect those visuals and modernize them.
Yes, KOFXIII was crazy expensive, tanked the company, consumers snubbed it for being 2D while the industry shifted to 3D as the standard and all normalfags seem to hate anything not 3D, so it's understandable they abandoned it during that current climate. But they are in a position now where they can't stand out in the pack at all, Street Fighter does better 3D realism, Arcsys does better 3D anime artstyle, SNK currently excels at neither, and with Blazblue dead there's no modern fighter with 2D aside from UNI which never got popular. It would be a massive gamble and playing the long game but I think it could (coping) have worked out for them with some luck.
