Microsoft: The Wii Isn't An Online Connected Platform

It is true that Xbox live is awesome and the Wii online service (free!) isn't really on par. But, with MKWii and recently COD:WAW (which I was one of the few to prucchase on the Wii), I have really loved the online experience proposed by Nintendo; online is a real part of games and brings a lot to the games that use it intelligently.

And of course WiiWare and VC have been great.

 

having played mario kart and SSBB,  i have to say that the wii online capabilities don't hold a candle to XBL or PSN....I have a hard time viewing this whole post really valid. While it is 'opinion' if transcribed to fact,  you would have lost all you're credit right there.

Mario Kart has so many ways to cheat online with no hack prevention, SSBB is laggy as having a 56k modem and something we all know, but single handedly prove my point. Friend codes.

Eaaasssyyy big fella (as George tells the whale having crashed on the beach...)!

What did I say? I said I played MKWii and COD:WaW online on the Wii and liked it. The single player is fine and the online brought something more. I was therefore happy and thought I would post it in this thread as I thought is was on topic (in regards to the OP's article).

And as your rightly pointed out, this is merley an "opinion" post. So you don't have to agree (whcih you obviously don't). But don't go losing yourself in complicated sentences included such things as "opinion if transcribed as fact"... I thought you lost all of your credit there as a simple "i disagree" would have suffised.
