Online multiplayer is a really nice feature, but its importance is greatly over-stated ... If you look at the top 20 best selling console games of any year very few are really known for their online multiplayer.

In contrast, the importance of local multiplayer is greatly under-stated ... Many of the biggest games of the generation, and most of the break-out hits, have had a solid local multiplayer experience.

Well stated couldn't agree more

And this is why I maintain it's dumb to just drop local from Call of Duty on the Wii. I mean drop it for assuming gamers don't want it, instead of understandable tech reasons.
