@Munkeh: Yeah, however you like to play.
You used faulty logic considering the Wii HD. It doesn't work that way, that "have no reason not to do it". I bet Nintendo has no reason for not to enter cars industry or construction or make stereos or TV:s etc. In reality you need to have a motive to do something. Nintendo had a reason in the first place for not to make a HD console.
We do know that Wiis successor will be HD (out propably 2012), but we will never see Wii HD.
@mrstickball: You likely understand that losing money as a strategy isn't going to lead far. As a gamer i'm interested in whether the games companies make money or not, since making money is the requirement for getting games in the future.
I do agree that DLC and DD titles have become important for the devs/publishers due to profitability issues, but i would bet that most of the gamers play offline.
As for playing for the high score, the "high score" -type of games are on the Wii. Now, gamerscore isn't a bad idea at all, but there's one general flaw in it; it's essentially a "how many games i've played" list, not really a "high score" list.
"Online" consists from a number of things, but i do understand, that for 360 owners "online" is very limited term.
If you were asking how long does it take with Wii to get to play online, it depends on a game. Brawl takes ages, but for example Mario Kart takes maybe up to 3 minutes to get to play the game. In a friend match, if everything is ready, about a minute less.
Frankly, i wouldn't be happy at all, if SMG of TP would have extra levels for a cost. I would be pissed, for not to have them included into the game in the first place (of course, if the DLC would arrive a year or two after the games initial release, that would change the whole thing).
Ei Kiinasti.

Vaan pannaan jalalla koreasti.
Nintendo games sell only on Nintendo system.
