@goddog... Nintendo doesn't patch games. That and it is not a problem, just extra little scenes, why does it need a patch when it is of no use to the game.

I think from what I have read, it seems all PAL versions have the extra content anyway. but early NTSC don't have it.

Mine doesn't do the additional thing Blunty mentioned though, with the fielder picking up a ground out (no idea what that is though)

 

they dont patch ever? .... that seems arrogant. at some point they will slip up and ship something messed up (maybe not show stopping like tomb raider wii, but something off in it), and they should have a system in place to fix it. also why not offer downloads for the games, smash brothers seems like a game crying for downloads. 

 

Well doesn't patching invlove sending information to internet enabled consoles that would be stored on a hard-drive of some sort.

If Nintendo messes up they do what everyone did in the past, which is the recall any copies on shelves, and/or offer a free replacement service for those already bought... you have to realise patching is an encouragement to lazy developing, and even the X360 has barely 60% of owners connected online so it's not a be-all, end all solution anyway.

The only mess up I can think of that Nintendo made this gen was Super Paper Mario, which shipped with a word some found offensive in it (can't remember exactly) which they recalled and shipped again.

And I am mostly against any kind of download service if it costs me money, I want the game I paid for to be the full version out of the box.
