"It" doesn't suck, though ("it" being the games that choose to go online). And Nintendo pushed it plenty with Brawl (not so good) and Kart (quite good), and MOH Heroes 2 and Call of Duty both have it featured, to name a few. Furthermore, sucky online is way different than no online. |
I just think complicated "friend codes" are a bad bad idea for a system trying to appeal to "casuals". Even as "hardcore" as I am, I won't play online if I had to keep so many complex numbers in order to do so. I liken this to mgs4 online where you had to create a different konami id from your psn and then a game id. Add the fact that you have to download updates from konami torrents and I never touched mgo as much as I love mgs4.
My little brother was trying to show me that he was the best in SSBB so I asked him to play online and it took 15 minutes for him to find people to play with (and he lost btw). For a game whose sales are encroaching on 10 mil, I thought that was a damn shame.
