Actually, this just sounds like an update to their already existing online system and a rebrand. All of these features have been available since the Wii launched in 2006.

Not at all. Alot of these weren't present in Wii's system.

which ones?  i bought DLC for samba de amigo.  it was handeled very awkardly but it worked.  i'm assuming the new network handles things much better but it was technically possible to do it on the wii.
