I really don't know how this will affect a lot of people. Even in a "third world" (hate that term but let's stick with it) country like mine everyone uses wifi over cables. There's probably an add-on for that so I don't see the problem.

while i get what you are saying -- i still use ethernet on my ps3 even though it is mere feet from my router. hardwired ethernet is simply faster and more reliable which is a plus for online gaming. netflix runs better on my ps3 compared to my wii and i'm pretty sure the only real difference is ethernet vs. wifi.

Everyone I know (and I mean that literally) uses wifi with their 360 and PS3, and I think most people around the world do the same same thing. So why add something that will increase the price of the console that will only satisfy the minority of gamers? For that few percentage of people there is the add on. It's just a smart business move.

Well I guess Im of that minority. oh and my friends too.
I only have issues with my Wii, online sucks to the highest, and all my devices are connected with cable, I only use my phone with wireless, and that thing(wlan router) is off at night. really, an ethernet port is a given......
Business move, I take a shit on business moves, all I want is options!
WHY THE Gaminggodshell should I care about business moves, just build in a damn ethernet port!!

Yes, you and your friends are the minority: http://www.neowin.net/news/study-25-percent-of-all-households-use-wifi
This is worldwide btw in the U.S is 61%
Wii internet problems weren't because of wifi or ethernet, it was the hardware itself. Besides most games were ok, the only one I can think of that have major problems was Smash.
Let's face it, this just a stupid thing for fanboys to nickpick about "problems" with the Wii U. You have the option to play with an ethernet port, it may not be by default but it's there. If you have other "problems" with the system this is probably the stupidest one...

Lets face it, we have wifi too this doesnt mean we dont have MOST of the devices connected via cable...
no its not a stupid thing for fanboys, that is the argument of a fanboy! Look at apple, uuuh we dont have a HDMI port BUT HEY YOU CAN BUY AN ADAPTER, here! NO I dont want to buy that thing!!! just build it in assholes! I dont give a dump on business moves, if the PS4 does not have en ethernet port, i will be bad mad at sony.
kinda a joke
oh and me and my friend always have problems playing MonsterHunterTrii
