This is something I've noticed a lot, every single time I put a new 'hardcore' game into the Wii it requires a new update to run.  Never with any other type of game, just the supposed hardcore ones.

 

Are Nintendo really that batshit paranoid I'm going to pirate the console?  Because anyone already pirating isn't going to have to deal with this update crap, the fact I'm using an actual copy defeats the need for these useless updates unless Nintendo are so paranoid that they fear I might one day do it?  Seems to be the case since its more likely the 'hardcore' crowd will be the oens to pirate.

 

If anything it is just going to drive people towards piracy to skip the aggrovation of waiting for the update which does nothing but move all your channels back to default position every bloody time.


I've only had that happen with two or three games, and one wasn't a "hardcore" game. It was the port of  Mario Tennis.

Plus if you have an online connection, you can take updates as they happen, instead of doing it just before you play a game.

But I haven't gotten that many in the first place. So either Britain has a hell of a lot more, or you're doing something that makes updates more frequent.



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs
