Why I think Nintendo left out cross game chat

So no cross game chat? That's a huge issue. That feature alone is the dividing line for many gamers who chose 360 over PS3. Next gen Nintendo is going to be the odd man out for online network features. Cross game chat is the reason it is easier to develop a friends base on 360. That's why 360 does the best job selling online games, it is easier to invite people, suggest games to play, and grab others to join.

That's also why it costs a monthy fee to active a live account. You end up paying for two consoles over 6 years, and then some.

No, Nintendo will not be the odd man out, that is a non-Nintendo gamer's wet dream. (imho)

That is not why it costs a monthly fee. They don't have to charge to provide that feature. The Vita has cross game chat btw.
