Okay but really, why are they all boring 3D fighters that have barely changed since the PS2 era?

They are the easiest one to make since you only need an arena and characters movesets, don't even need to balance it properly since there's no esports money to be made on it (unless it's called gundam extreme versus).

What? gundam extreme versus has an e sport scene?

Yes, way stronger in japan since game is still mainly arcade, but they appear as a side tournament in EVO all the time.
