Who else doesn't mind glitches?

So I'm sitting here playing Castlevania: Symphony of the Night (for the at least 100th time) and I started thinking about the glitches I was doing. Then I started thinking about the games of today and how everyone wants every little glitch patched and I started applying that to MK9. How would you guys feel if they left in some of the little glitches that occur in the game? Such as the classic costumes that sometimes get messed up when preforming a fatality. Or when you're play the "secret" characters on the latter and their costume changes into yours (I only know of it happening in Ermac's classic, I haven't tried the others). I honestly couldn't care less if they fixed them and am leaning a little more to the "don't fix it" side, because it's just funny to me. I get a little sad when developers throw out patch after patch after patch, because some glitches are fun to do and cool to see, but maybe that's just me? I CAN, however, understand patching game-breaking (or close to) glitches like Fallout: New Vegas freezing problems.

What about some of you old school players, what do you think? Some of the best parts about mk 1-3 (3 including ult and trilogy) are some of the crazy-ass glitches you could do. But again, that could just be me :P
 
Glitches, as long as they aren't of the game breaking variety, are a fun part of gaming. You can search YouTube (or TRMK favorite cinemassacre.com) and find tons of examples of glitch videos that are interesting/fun to try.

I admit I almost thought the deal with hidden fighters mirroring your character's classic costume was done on purpose by NRS since glitches are such a part of MK's history. You had Johnny Cage and his muiti-head fatality, "Skarlet" in MK2, and the Reptilian Sonya from MK1.
 
Reptilian Sonya? I didn't know that.

I agree that some glitches are funny, but others shouldn't be. They should leave them be when you have to do something special for it to happen, like all those Mario Games glitches. They're mostly things that wouldn't happen normally. But the classic costumes turning gray in a fatality is something that happens all the time under no really special circunstance. If it was like "freeze your opponent three times, switch with noob saibot and hit with the cloud while the opponent is frozen and the classic costume will turn gray", it would be more acceptable.
