This is bullcrap.
They could really differenciate Gold from Silver and competitors offering clan support, cloud backup of savegames and other features. Instead they do this.
@Icyedge: gosh, that's dumb. ALL or MOST no matter where they come from execs worry about maximising profit. Trying to spray it as a sort of attack on american-based corporations reeks of short sight. Nintendo is a pure japanese driven corporation and they've shown extreme greed this gen: they've generated massive profits with the Wii and they haven't kicked it back to the consumers at all.
