could be very interesting.

i don't have a Wii (so I wouldn't know), but why do people say that online games don't work on the system?

 

They work. It's just the Wii seems to have been set up to protect your regular 10 year old kid, from your average Xbox live type, swearing annoying online user. In other words... other 10 year old kids they don't know.

For example you can use chat in Wii's multiplayer mode but only in the version that is with only people whos friends codes you have.

You can't talk to random strangers in the random games. So if Animal Crossing was a MMO where anyone could go up and talk to anybody that would be odd.

Also it'd probably be less then 3 days before someone ran a "Pedofiles can talk to kids online on the wii!1!11!" story.


 ah, that makes sense.  That does limit the system somewhat when it comes to multiplayer games.

 Nintendo should just add profiles that are password protected (so the parents could monitor them) and configure them with certain rights.  That  would solve both problems.
