Of course it would be best to have both.  But when strained with the circumstance of only have alloted time to include 1 and having a game is already suited towards only one you can't really have both. (1)

 

Let me ask it this way.  If local multiplayer was the biger draw, why would almost ALL Wii FPS's have an online component but not a local componenet?(2)  Do you think they all just assumed it be the bigger draw of the 2 features?

Consider the pros and cons:

With online you get much higher player counts and there 's always players to play against.  With local splitscreen, you are limited to 4 players max (many games allow only 2), you need many controllers, you have to schedule time to play and you reduce system performance.  Online has become more appealing as broadband accessibility has increased and free time for aging gamers has reduced. 

1. Did you miss the several times where I stated if tech reasons keep it out of this version yet again, I'll accept it?

2. Wii FPS have also not broken the 2 million mark. Furthermore, only CoD and Red Steel have broken the 1 million mark. One has local only, and two of the the others have online only (with limited local multiplayer). All this proves is that FPS on the Wii have yet to break through.

I really don't like that "we chose to make this as proof alone the games sell". It should be "X game sold well and Y didn't, so we chose to make a game like X". The former has been the mindset of most developers, and that's been a huge reasons just costs have gone up, not sales.

Part in bold IS the reason, so why are you refusing to accept it. You say you will, yet you are still arguing against it. I've mentioned that was the reason since the beginning. *Cough* TROLL! *Cough.* This argument, could have stopped PAGES ago, but you've insisted to keep it going.  

No, you aren't paying attention to the context of my comments. I'm going off of viper's claim that online is a better sales point on the Wii than local multiplayer, NOT whether this game should have that anymore. There is a difference.

And your "stop living in the past" comment from before showed why you don't get this. Just like Zero Punctuation believes that 2D Mario is somehow obselete, you believe that local multiplayer in FPS is somehow obselete (even if you didn't use those words).

I will throw this down. I will bet a week's ban that Goldeneye will outsell this game, and that local multiplayer, in addition to online, will be the reason.

"Wow. You guys can prove to him the world is round but he would still contest it."

You can't even give me the dignity of addressing my points. I'm asking for proof that I'm wrong, proof that Wii customers want this feature over the other, but they haven't given any. Even ONE statistical survey of FPS playing Wii owners would be proof one way or the other. And that isn't an unreasonable thing, as it talks to customers, not just assuming their tastes without asking.
