Iwata: "PSN and Live too far developed for us to catch up"

I read this and while it is true that Sony and Microsoft have been working on their services for years now, all I can sit and ask myself is:

What the hell have they been doing all these years?

Nintendo should of invested on this idea honestly, but now if they ever do this in the future maybe a generation or later, they'll be even more behind when the time comes.

They could easily make alot of money out of this idea with their games...I guess that is why some of their games still cost 49.99 when they've been out for years (cough Super Smash Bros. Brawl cough).

I would like them to go in depth and let us know exactly what their online service provides because to be 100% honest. Enough of this secretive crap. The damn thing is supposed to be less than 6 months away.

Nobody wants to put money down now without knowing what the hell they are buying and certainly don't want to put down the money last minute either.

Agree with you that we need to know more.

 

But don't agree with 'Nobody wants to put money down now without knowing what the hell they are buying and certainly don't want to put down the money last minute either."

 

there is a third option, put it in the bank and not down as a preorder. So when it does get closer to launch and you feel like you want the WiiU, pull the money from the bank and use it.
