I don't give a fuck about where the mic jack is or that you need to buy a headset instead of using the built in mic, therefor this article is useless for me and it's grasping at straws anyway to be perfectly honest. What I give a fuck about is that I am not able to talk to my friends while playing NSMBU or ZombiU while they play something else.

You should be more bummed out about the fact that you're not even able to play those games with your friends online, because Nintendo refuses to include what is now a standard feature in 95% of games that feature some sort of multiplayer component into their own titles.  ZombiU is only featuring local MP because of time constraints, but there is absolutely no reason why simple games like Nintendo Land and NSMBU do not have an online multiplayer compontent.

That is not Nintendo's decisino, that is Ubisofts. The only time Nintendo ever restricted online was for the first year on the Wii. There is no restriction anymore. Any oversight in online is on the devs.
