| famousringo said: The real problem that I see is Nintendo's lack of online games, period. As has been pointed out, the only game that has online but doesn't have Wii Speak since the peripheral came out is ExciteBots, and I don't really see an advantage to the peripheral for that game, either. IMO, NSMBW should have had full online support, including Wii Speak. As somebody who thinks an excellent online mode has contributed to Mario Kart Wii's incredible sales, I think lack of online will hurt NSMBW's overall sales potential. |
I think it's more an issue of ideology. Nintendo's only pushing Wii Speak in it's own games that are cooperative online (Animal Crossing, Endless Ocean 2) not competitive (Excitebots). They let 3rd parties do whatever though, as usual.
