I feel for you guys. Really hope it gets polished for you. We had a kiss pro in league and it plays OK, but can understand wanting the final polish. What exactly is the point of selecting the city?
They are now 3 games into the new LCD screens. One reason they haven't had many code releases this year, is ghostbusters, game of thrones and star wars released with mostly complete code. I was amazed that ghostbusters is considered "done" already. I own an LE and to be honest, it does feel done to me.
They ARE doing a better job of having code mostly complete on launch now, but that doesn't help the abandoned games that aren't done.

I would guess, these fixes were done shortly after the last code release a year and a half ago and there wasn't enough to test it and release it.
They just released it now to stop the bad press and shut kiss owners up for a little while. Money says these changes weren't recently coded.
